TL;DR
Petty theft is rare but possible — no one will watch your belongings but you. Leave valuables at the hotel and bring only a towel, hat, and cover-up to the beach.
On paid sunbeds at the central beach, as well as at Costabella beach club and Hon Tam island, one traveler reported never having anything stolen from their bag during regular beach visits.
Beach staff and other beachgoers won't watch your things — people who paid for sunbeds are focused on their own relaxation, not guarding your bag. Opportunistic petty thieves can grab something in passing, so avoid bringing valuables.
A practical approach: don't stress about a beach bag with just a towel, hat, and sarong since losing them isn't a big deal. Skip bringing significant cash or valuables to the beach altogether.
