Hotels in Koh Tao

"British solo backpacker, 30 years old. Very clean hostel/hotel. Breakfast between 6:30-10am included in stay. Very quiet hostel no music no party hostel, however just a minor noise from neighbours, they have roosters and chickens which start from 6am till 11am Has been a problem with my stay due to me having an ear infection from scuba diving and being on antibiotics. But have had spoken to trip.com and have supported my stay and been very helpful. It’s a 20 minute walk to knock out gym and 25 minutes to the PEIR.. 45 minutes to the main *****. It is walkable. But scooters are 200baht a day. There is a laundromat next door to hotel and two 7- elevens close by. Few good restaurants. Plus the hostel does a scuba diving course with padi the team and instructors are amazing. They also have so much happening in the day. They have beach clean up in the morning. They have drop off and pick up services to the beach from 1:30-4 and then sunset drop off and pick up from 5:30-7pm every day. You go to a new place every day. It is really cool they also have other activities. Overall I had a great time meeting people here, but it is very far away. It is clean not a party hostel but just the neighbours roosters and chickens and bonfire are a problem."

"This hotel is probably the only Five-Diamond property on Koh Tao. It offers excellent facilities and service, though the price is a bit high. The rooms are clean and hygienic, and the snorkeling is good. Perhaps due to the rainy season, the waves were a bit rough, so we didn't see many fish. Kayaking is also affordable. In addition to picking up guests according to the ferry company's schedule, the hotel also offers a free daily shuttle (hotel to the pier: 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM; pier to the hotel: 10:30 AM and 1:30 PM)."

"Relaxing place far away from the town and the happenings 😊 We didn’t mind that as we were looking for the quiet place where we can relax and snorkel. It was a nice staying even tho rooms are on the hill and it takes quite time to go open and down. But, once you are down you can enjoy beautiful marine life with baby sharks, turtles and various fish 🐠"

"The location is nice and quiet, walking distance to other restaurants through the beach. The beach is very nice, clean and good for kids especially when the tide is low. Our Cabana was spacious, beautiful, although a bit dark. The water pressure was low and we didn’t have hot water. We asked them to fix it but it didn’t happen on time before our check-out. We stayed for two nights. The pool has a waterfall, and it looks a little run down. Nice view to the sea from the pool, though. The breakfast (included) was ok. Fruits, bread, but not many options for vegetarian/vegans in the menu. Dinners were good. Overall, a beautiful hotel, kind staff, great location, maintenance response could be better."

"This family villa was a great location to enjoy the beach front. The sand was soft and beautiful. The private pool was larger than expected and satisfying to swim in. The room was well designed. My family was very happy staying here. When our AC wasn’t cool enough the staff fixed it. The tub water was warm but not hot. If I stayed more time I would have asked for that to be fixed. The breakfast could be better but it was ok. All in all, pretty happy."

"This is the best hotel in Koh Tao. Best location, best beach bar, great pool and the room was perfect with a massive balcony. Highly recommend for any backpackers or couples travelling. Scuba diving shop is literally in the hotel."

"The hotel isn't brand new, but the rooms are spacious. We had a room with a balcony and a sea view, complete with a daybed, which was a fantastic feature. It's located on the other side of the pier. While there's a shuttle service, we preferred renting a scooter to get around. Breakfast was pretty standard and could get quite crowded. The beach is gorgeous, and they offer complimentary kayaks for guests. They also have three excellent swimming pools. Overall, we were satisfied with our two-day stay."

"Expensive, but for a room with 18 people, surprisingly decent. There is a club playing music until late, but earplugs were effective for me. Fellow travelers were quiet and respectful. I was the only female in the toom, and felt comfortable. The building is a bit tucked away so the walk can feel long at night."

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would definitely come back. The location is great – you can easily rent a scooter directly from the hotel at a good price. If you prefer walking, it takes about 20 minutes downhill to reach the lively area with lots of restaurants, bars, and shopping options. Our villa with sea view was absolutely beautiful and worth it. The view was stunning, the room was very clean, and housekeeping came every day. Breakfast was tasty and had everything you need, even though it wasn’t very varied. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend this hotel. We will definitely book it again on our next visit to Koh Tao."

"Great location and very clean. Our fridge wasn’t working staff very friendly and where very quick to get us another fridge they organised out tour very quickly. Great little place to stay restaurant was great to next door"
