Hotels near Tanote peak in Koh Tao

Unfortunately we were very disappointed with our stay here. The location of the hotel is amazing, on the beach along a very busy ***** of restaurants and beach bars which was great. However, the hotel itself was sadly a let down. The hotel keep whistling birds in cages just outside the hotel rooms so expect to be woken at all hours by birds whistling louder than we could believe. The room we were in was very basic to the point where the only plug socket was by the front door, so to dry my hair I had to stand at the front door with no mirror or chair… The shower was a fixed height (very low) so my partner had to be on his knees to wash his hair and I had to bend significantly despite not being very tall. The room was very dark with basically no natural light at all throughout the day. The bedding was just a thick blanket, that I imagine isn’t washed between guests, in between two loose sheets so the blanket kept coming out of the sheets. The toilet was very temperamental and wouldn’t always flush properly. One positive is that the air con was strong however to circulate the air we also had the fan on and this made an annoying screeching noise when it turned to a certain point, which again, woke us up during the night. We didn’t have breakfast because we had a look at what was on offer and decided to go elsewhere as there are lots of nice local places to eat. The staff also weren’t the most pleasant and even got our dates confused when we checked in. Sadly wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

We had a great stay at Tarna Align. The staff are so LOVELY, every single one of them, especially to my little girl. It is a little uphill, but it is worth it for the views - the little golf buggy/tuk tuk is great for taking you up and down to the main strip and we found it was always out and about and we would just jump on and off it. We got a great room with a huge balcony. It was clean and huge. Breakfast was really good, the man at the egg station was lovely and I liked the way you could order coffees, their fresh smoothies were delicious. Although a little uphill from the main strip I really think you would struggle to get this quality of hotel for the price. Would recommended.

A particularly beautiful island, I ca n’t remember how many times I came to Turtle Island to play. This time because I was with my mother, I specially booked a new hotel by the sea. The facilities are pretty good. The environment is very good, and the luxurious sea view room booked below is the swimming pool and beach. The scenery is absolutely beautiful, and you can also snorkel.

Good location, close to Lompraya pier, no need for a taxi on arrival/departure. Not noisy, comfortable, everything is there, everything is nearby (rental of bikes, fins, masks, etc., Russian dive center Scuba Birds, drink/eat). Not far away is the picturesque bay of Jansom Bay and the empty, formerly (for a long time) luxurious Charm Churi hotel. The beach at Blue Diamond is not a large section of Maye Head, in a good location. The bottom is fine sand, the entry is comfortable, there are few corals at the bottom, in patches. The low tide is strong, during our stay (July-August 2023) in the morning the sea was not bathable (it went very far), by 14:00 you can already swim comfortably, by 18:00 full tide, gorgeous swimming at sunset. The restaurant in the hotel is not cheap, but - right on the beach. Tom yum is the best in my opinion. If you are a diver and plan to dive at the Scuba Birds hotel, you can get a discount on accommodation. Good hotel and dive club, I recommend.

Wonderful resort where we stayed in the family beach bungalow. Very nice accommodation. Everything was very clean and staff very friendly. Especially Tida who helped us 2 times in the restaurant was very helpful.

We stayed at Koh Tao Heritage for 11 nights and we enjoyed our stay. Location was perfect for access along Sairee and also close to Mae Haad pier. The room was clean and very spacious. Only complaints were the bathroom was quite dated and the bed was really really hard to lay on. It had really good reliable wifi and Netflix available in the room. The staff were friendly and always topped us up with water and tea/coffee every morning. The swimming pool area is actually really nice and good place to chill. However the small private beach is quite rocky and not the nicest to swim at. They offer a laundry service and there is also scooter rental right opposite the reception. Can’t fault our time at Heritage and would happily stay again!

The view is really nice. There were a lot of reviews about bugs, so I brought cockroach repellent and a home mat, but luckily I didn't see the cockroaches, and it was pretty clean and nice! The beach in the back is really really good for snorkeling! The food at Uncle Restaurant in front is also very delicious overall! If you like french fries, be sure to try french fries. Really crispy in the world!!! But the service is a bit vague. At 1:30, there was a pick-up bus from the ferry side, so I waited, but he didn't come, I called, but it kept saying it was the wrong number (the number found on Trip.cup and Naver search) and the ferry attendant waited at 2 o'clock but waited to be able to get on at 2:10. They said that when they came at 2:30, they said it was going to depart at 3 o'clock.. I got on the bus right after the protest, but waited for an hour. For reference, here, a 5-minute walk costs 200 baht and a 10-minute drive costs 400 baht. Also, when I rented snorkeling equipment, the info said it was $100, but the info said it was $1000, so the info said it was $100. Then they told me to pay 200 dollars for two people, but later I found out that if it's 1000 dollars, it's a deposit and 100 dollars is just a loan. (No refunds + no equipment purchases) I took this place on purpose because it was free to rent. It was a bit disappointing that the information was not properly provided and the time was not kept well, but the view is so good that if I go again next time, I want to stay at this hotel. I stayed for 2 nights, but on the last day, the air conditioner broke down, so I couldn't fix it for a long time, so I had to move to the next room.

Our room was in the jungle house, which was a little.further than I anticipated when booking, but actually turned out to be amazing. Quiet, beautiful location. Spacious room with a wonderful view. Friendly and helpful staff. Close enough to walk to the action around Sairee Beach. They also.provided a shuttle buggy to/from the beach. Would definitely stay again.

Stayed here last week whilst on Koh Tao - the rooms are huge and spotless, has a hot shower, tv and air con + fan. its a short walk to the nearest beach (even with my elderly mum who is 65) the real attraction to this hotel was the staff! every single one of them were amazing they are like one big happy family, so friendly, helpful and entertaining. they looked after my mum constantly helping her up and down stairs, giving her cups of tea, spending time with her when I was out, dancing and singing with her she absolutely loved it. they speak very good English and can help you with anything you need on the island. thank you for a great stay we will be back soon !

I absolutely cannot recommend the hotel. The hotel was probably closed for 4 years and reopened in December 2023. It is in very bad condition. The rooms are outdated, the facility is dirty and still under construction. Building materials are flying everywhere. We didn't have a cow at first. We booked the chalet/bungalow. We had to leave the chalet we had booked immediately upon arrival because the smell was very strong. The lady at the hotel said that the paint had been freshly painted the day before. Here I ask myself why this is even offered to guests. After waiting for over an hour we got a room in a low category, we were once again negatively surprised. The air conditioning didn't cool down properly, there was no refrigerator in the room, no safe, no hairdryer, no shower enclosure in the bathroom. The equipment is very old. The TV does not work. There are no cupboards in the room to store clothes. The single bed is right next to the double bed & not separate with a partition in the room as booked in the chalet. The hotel complex is also horrible. Everything is still under renovation. Unfortunately, this was not noted anywhere by booking. There are several construction workers walking around. There is building material everywhere. The facility itself is very littered. Just like the pool. The pool bar & restaurant empty. There are no pool towels. Just like the pool. The pool bar & restaurant empty. There are no pool towels. The breakfast was inedible. After we slept in the hotel for one night, we were once again negatively surprised after our trip. The room wasn't even cleaned. No fresh towels. After my complaint, a lady came who wanted to clean our room. Unfortunately that was too late as we had to leave again. The staff at the hotel are very nice, but they cannot help us with the above-mentioned deficiencies. This hotel corresponds to a maximum of a 1-2 star hotel & not a 4 star hotel as described in booking. The renovation would have to be completed before this could be offered to guests.
