By minivan
Minivans (minibuses) start from Victory Monument, which is on the BTS line (Skytrain). Make sure you take exit #2 and you will find the minivans down the station. Typically they can accommodate up to 14 people including the driver. The cost is 160 baht, and it takes a bit more than two hours to reach Cha-Am. The first minivan leaves at 5:00 am and the last one at 8:00 pm. Minivans leave only when they are full or almost full, so depending on the moment of the day, you may have to wait a little. The space available for luggage is quite small, so if you have big suitcases it's not convenient (you can also be charged - 100 baht per piece of luggage).
