Das Eigentum — Tree House Cottages
Tree House Cottages in Trat feels like a low-key escape into the garden: wooden cabins on stilts, open-air restaurant, and a pool sunk among palm trees. It’s basic but honest — tiled floors, mosquito nets, ceiling fans — and suits travellers who want quiet before island hopping or after the border crossing from Cambodia. No lift, no fuss, and the staff’s unhurried friendliness sets the tone from check-in.
Chroniken von Trat
Trat began as a small fishing settlement and later became a vital trading post for gems and teak, with French occupation briefly interrupting Thai rule in the early 20th century. Its wooden shop-houses and narrow streets reflect a century of Chinese merchant influence and a once-thriving sapphire trade. Today Trat is the quiet mainland gateway to the Koh Chang archipelago, retaining a rural air with few high-rises and a working riverfront. The city’s identity sits between its old commercial roots and its present role as a transit hub for travellers to the islands.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Trat-Guide →Die besten Monate
December to February: dry, relatively cool, with clear skies and calm seas — the best for visiting islands or exploring the city comfortably.
Peak / Festival Surge
Peak runs from late December through January, driven by Christmas, New Year, and the start of high season. Hotel prices, including at Tree House Cottages, can rise 40–60%. Chinese New Year (usually late January/February) also brings a spike in bookings from regional tourists.
Budget Schulter Saison
March and November offer good value: March is dry but hotter, November sees the tail of the rains but lower prices and fewer travellers. You can often find deals 20–30% below peak rates.
Wetter & Verpackung
Trat coastal climate means sudden tropical downpours even in the dry season. Pack a light rain jacket and quick-dry footwear, plus a hat and mosquito repellent — the garden cottages put you close to the damp greenery.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Tree House Cottages, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the upper floor of a tree house furthest from the main road. The higher you go, the better the breeze and privacy.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the main walkways – foot traffic and early departures can be noisy. Also skip any cottage directly facing the car park.
Best views
Some cottages look into the tropical garden or across a small pond; ask for one with a garden view rather than the car park or adjacent building.
Quietest floors
All cottages are single or two-storey; request a top-floor unit in the back row (away from Trat's main road).
🔊 Noise notes
Trat's main road is busy with motorbikes and trucks from early morning until late evening. Tree houses set further back are noticeably quieter.
Insider tips

- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Umher zu kommen
Trat Town (Talad Mai Market) → Laem Sok Pier (drop-off, then taxi a short distance to resort)
💡 This bus is mostly used for island ferries, not the resort directly. Get off at the pier junction and take a motorbike taxi (20 baht) for the final 2 km. Ask locals to point 'Siam Beach' – it's a well-known bungalow strip.
Trat Airport → Trat Bus Station, then songthaew to Siam Beach Resort
💡 From the bus station, flag a white songthaew heading towards Klong Kloi – tell the driver 'Siam Beach'. Share the fare group-style; don't pay more than 40 baht per person.
Trat Town (Centre) → Siam Beach Resort
💡 Negotiate hard: 500–600 baht is fair. If you’re coming from the ferry pier (e.g. Koh Chang), try the shared minivan to the resort instead – about 250 baht per person.
Trat Airport (TDX) → Siam Beach Resort (Klong Kloi Beach)
💡 Book through the airport kiosk for flat rates. Avoid touts outside; meters are not used on this route. Shared vans cost half but wait for 6–8 passengers.

💡 Bring insect repellent after dusk – mosquitoes are active. Stop at the floating noodle boat (50 baht) near the end of the promenade.
💡 Go before 7am for the best dried squid and durian chips. Bring small change – stallholders rarely accept cards.
