Hat Sai Kaew or White Sands Beach is probably one of the best beaches in Thailand.
The choice of accomodation ranges from from wooden shacks on the beach to luxury boutique style hotels.

I think that is actually coconut beach just up from white sands.
Uh, we made the mistake of booking at the Pla Loma Resort on "White Sand Beach". No sand. No beach. No white:

Well, me and g/f went to Ko Chang a few weeks back and the first night decided to stay on White Sands Beach, and the Sandy Beach Resort. I cannot say enough bad things about this place. 600 baht a night, beach front, but a complete shithole. Shared the room with a few cockroaches, the "double bed" was just 2 twins pushed together. Weak a/c, mysterious stains on the bed, and the hot water didn't work. In the morning, I turned on the sink and brown water came out. This place wasn't worth 6 baht, and certainly not 600. We left immediately, but here are some pics:
The view from the room:

The bathroom in the morning. Disgusting:
