No — the beach itself is public and free to access. Sunbed rental is associated with restaurant use at The Blue Spice: ordering from the food and drink menu gives access to beach furniture at no additional hire charge.

Is there WiFi at Choeng Mon Beach?

WiFi is available at The Blue Spice restaurant for guests. The password is available from staff on request. The connection is suitable for messaging, email, and light browsing. For work-intensive use, a hotel or cafe connection is more reliable. Mobile data coverage at Choeng Mon is generally good for all three major Thai networks.

Can I hire water sports equipment at Choeng Mon?

Yes — kayaks and stand-up paddleboards can be hired from beach vendors operating along Choeng Mon Beach. Rates vary: kayaks are typically 200–400 baht per hour for a single or double. Jet skis are available but less prevalent here than at Chaweng, which suits guests who prefer quieter sea conditions. Snorkelling equipment hire is available from some vendors.

Is Choeng Mon Beach clean?

Choeng Mon is one of the better-maintained beaches on Koh Samui. The smaller scale of the beach and the residential character of the area mean it receives less litter than the major tourist beaches. The established restaurants including The Blue Spice maintain the area immediately around their facilities. Occasional seaweed deposits occur naturally and vary by season — this is normal and nothing to do with water quality.
