Sea Princess Hotel is a 4-star hotel in Cox's Bazar.

Both work, but they want different addresses. Families do better in Kolatoli, where larger family rooms and buffet breakfasts are common and the beach entrance, pharmacies and food are within a few hundred metres, with the Dulahazara Safari Park 50 km north as a rainy-day option. Couples usually prefer the Marine Drive resorts at Sonarpara and Inani, 28–32 km south, where the beach is emptier and the boulders make for better sunsets. Note that the marked, lifeguard-patrolled swimming zones are all in town at Laboni, Sugandha and Kolatoli, which matters if you have children in the water.

Book four to six weeks ahead for the Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha weeks, the 25 December to 2 January stretch and the Durga Puja holiday in October, when the town effectively sells out. Outside those windows, two weeks is plenty, except for Thursday and Friday nights, which are the Bangladeshi weekend and always the tightest nights. Sea-facing rooms in Kolatoli and the small resorts at Inani go first at any time of year. Boat trips to Moheshkhali or Kutubdia are better left flexible, since they depend on tide and weather.

Expect $10–$20 for a basic fan double off-peak, $30–$60 for a three-star AC room with breakfast outside the winter season, and $90–$180 for a four- or five-star resort room in November to February. The same three-star climbs to $70–$110 during the winter peak, and top-end rooms reach $250–$400 around 31 December and Eid. A genuine sea-facing balcony adds $15–$25 over a road-facing room in the same hotel. Rooms in Teknaf, Ramu and Chakaria sit at $12–$35 but there are far fewer of them.

The town beach is, and the rest is not. You can walk the sand from Laboni through Sugandha to Kolatoli in about 30–40 minutes, roughly 2 km, and all three have hotel clusters set back one to three streets from the water. Beyond that, the hills and the airport perimeter break the grid, so Jhilongja, Nuniar Chor and the railway station are rickshaw distance. Anything on Marine Drive — Himchari at 18 km, Inani at 32 km, Shamlapur at 45 km — needs a vehicle, and there are no pavements along that road.

Only under the current government restrictions, and you must check them before booking anything in Teknaf, 80 km south. Since 2024 visitor numbers to Saint Martin's have been capped, overnight stays limited to certain months, and the island closed to tourists in February, with the Teknaf–Saint Martin's ships running on a season-by-season basis rather than a fixed annual schedule. A travel pass and photo ID are normally required, and departures are early morning from the Naf river jetty. If the season is closed, Moheshkhali — 30 minutes by speedboat from 6 No. Ghat — is the realistic island alternative.
