Sampan Eco Resort - Our Story

Our Story

Iftekhar Alam, AKA, Allen Alam, has been living in the United States of America for last 27 years.
He bought this land back in 2003, without knowing what he wants to do with the land. Maybe he
was thinking to spend his retired life here in Cox’s Bazaar. About 7 years ago he was planning to
 do something with the land, but couldn't because of all the issues that came up when he decided
to make the fence and strengthen the security of the land.

Then again in June 2012, he came with his family to visit the land and decided that he must do
something with the land, so that the local area young people would get job. He could build a tall
multi story building to earn a lot of money, but instead he decided to save the world, to save the
environment, he had decided to build a facility that would not harm the environment.

We have tried our best to build the resort as natural as we can do. We have tried to use more
natural material to build the floor and other. Instead of using Steel, we tried to use Bamboo stick.

Sampan Eco Resort - Beautiful Beach Cottage Clay Doom at Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh

Room Description

This unique eco concept was designed by a Thai designer name “Su”. We have put tremendous effort to make this clay house as natural as possible. We have brought in the best clay can be found in the area, we have made a work area where we place the clay with water for a day, after that 10 worker would go in to the pit and smash it by feet until it becomes smooth. Then they would mix sand and rice shell for better bonding. After that we would place the clay on a dice and make Clay Block. We would then place it under the sun for drying. The goal here was to show our guest that you can live naturally if you want to. This process cost us lot of money compare to buying a brick and make a house with that. The costing of each block was $1.00 compare to brick is only 0.10. We invite you to enjoy the natural living with Sampan Resort.
