IHG Hotels & Resorts has announced the debut of Dinso Resort & Villas Ko Chang, Vignette Collection By IHG—the island’s first true luxury retreat, where barefoot living meets sustainability. Following the success of Dinso Resort & Villas Phuket, this new opening introduces an immersive blend of nature, culture, and community to one of Thailand’s most untouched islands.
Guests are invited to slow down at this barefoot-luxury escape where recycled sleeper wood, handwoven hemp, and lush greenery converge along Koh Chang’s widest stretch of beach. The resort offers more than 820 feet of direct oceanfront and spacious villas. Designed like a village, the property unfolds through palm-shaded pathways, with villas surrounded by greenery. Guests can gather around the communal fire pit, sip cocktails at the beach shack, or retreat to shaded corners for solitude.

Dinso Resort & Villas Ko Chang, Vignette Collection features 162 rooms and villas starting from 538 square feet, each with a rain shower, bathtub, and terrace or balcony. Guests can choose rooms with direct pool access, suites with panoramic views, family rooms or villas with a private pool.
Dinso offers a range of dining experiences. D_Primitive serves as a breakfast oasis with live stations and transforms into a fine-dining venue by night, reimagining Thai fusion with sophistication. D_Castaway Beach Club, crafted from driftwood and shipwreck remnants, celebrates adventure with barbecue seafood, Italian, Asian and Indian plates, cocktails, and sunset music. D_Wreck offers handcrafted coffee, Thai specialties and a shipwreck-inspired wine cellar for romantic dinners or tastings. Guests also share in the ritual of D_Beach Table, a communal dining experience on the sand, where menus, drinks, and companions are left to surprise with strangers often leaving as friends.

The resort balances castaway spirit with curated wellness. D_Jamuna Spa blends ancient Asian healing with modern treatments, from Nuad Bo-Rarn Thai massage to coconut-infused therapies. Families enjoy the creative D_Kids Club or soak in a nice tan at the largest outdoor pool on the island.
D_Craft Studio invites deeper exploration of heritage and sustainability, from pottery inspired by Din Sor Pong clay to Muay Thai lessons and artisan workshops.
Whether arranging a surprise dinner in the wine cellar, setting up a beach picnic or guiding guests through the story of Dinso’s recycled design, staff treat visitors not just as guests but as part of the islander community.

Situated at Klong Prao Beach, the resort offers easy access to fishing villages, waterfalls, snorkeling spots, and Koh Chang’s landscapes. Many guests, however, remain happily within the resort between beach bonfires, craft rituals and sunset gatherings.
At its heart, the resort is a celebration of heritage materials from ancient railway sleeper wood that is repurposed into warm flooring and furniture, to handwoven rattan ceilings, crafted by local artisans and Thai hemp headboards, grounding the sleeping experience in organic comfort.
Dinso Resort & Villas Ko Chang actively supports the local community and environmental initiatives. Through its partnership with Trat Wellness, the resort raises awareness of ocean conservation.
