Cha Am hotels and other accommodation:
Budget fan cooled rooms near the beach USD 5 and upwards. Air-conditioned rooms from about USD10. Budget hotels USD 15-20, 3-star hotels opposite or near the beach range from USD 25-30 upwards. There are also high standard beach hotels, 4-star about USD 30-50. Also Cha Am has luxury beach resorts from USD 50. Many of the good beach hotels are on their own stretches of beaches.
