Private Villa
View was spectacular and that’s their primary value but you can tell that even in one of their “best” rooms (private villa directly on the ocean) conditions were poor and property wasn’t well maintained or were still undergoing major renovations. AC was very weak and insulation was poor. The room had a lot of wear and tear marks on most furniture that made overall vibe of the villa feel dirty/unclean. Doors didn’t feel very secure including the gate and we had two tourists just randomly walk into our private villa area for pictures even though it was labeled private area. Villa to our right was under major renovation as well as a lot of areas in the resort which gave everything an incomplete vibe. Lots of construction materials, waste, debris laying in view for key guest areas. The advertised private pool for our villa was broken and when staff tried to fill it, extremely murky yellow water ended up filling the pool with no chlorine which meant we couldn’t use it. We only stayed for one night, but one night is more than enough to take in the spectacular views. Far better quality and comfortable stays in comparable properties on the island.

2/10 Poor

Avoid! really wish we had not stayed. Overpriced for not much quality. Very expensive for everything in the hotel, then they add a service charge, plus VAT and then added it again to the final bill trying to get double out of me. A massage is nearly 1000baht, down in Sairee its 300. 2 cups of Tea was 280 baht, 100 in Sairee. We had a meal at the restaurant and it came to 1600 baht for 2 cokes, veg fried rice, prawns with a bit of cabbage, fries and salad. Did order calamari but it was off, so he told me it was local squid. I couldnt even pull it apart infront of him.... Then they added a service charge and VAT. More expensive than anywhere in Thailand. I would understand if it was a 5 star resort. Its not. Our chalet was poor with a hole in the roof. Very outdated and up a huge steep hill that people would not even ride a bike up. The views were spectacular though especially of nuangnuan. The beach is not a beach, its sand put on a man made bank. Lots of building work and materials all over the place. Man made pier is rusty and broken. You also have to walk down the cliff and loads of steps. Again, steep to walk back up. Nice pool but overlooking a building yard. Also they hire out equipment and it is 5 times the price of everywhere else. They do shuttle runs to town, but if you go outside of the 4 times they charge you a lot of money. They wont order a taxi, you pay their driver. If you dont mind a cliff, have money to burn and want to pay over the top, then its for you.

Hotel was beautiful, some repairs needed. Could make more use of the food areas difficult to walk to bottom daily. Transport was unsafe and overloaded. Staff at hotel were outstanding thank you. The snorkelling was better than any trip we went on just off the hotel saw sea snakes plus loads other fish thought I was in a tank brilliant

We had a great time at this resort. The facilities were fantastic, especially the large and clean pool. The sunset view from the poolside was breathtaking. The restaurant was also really good. I think it's the best resort on Koh Tao

The staff is excellent and the location is fantastic. The overall hotel setting and facilities are great: the food is considerably better then in restaurants in Bangkok. The room is nice, however, it gets a little moldy because of overall humid weather and the air-conditioning is somewhat loud. But the staff, the surroundings, and the rest of the facilities make up for it. Definitely going back to this place and I highly recommend for those interested in swimming and snorkeling: you don't need to take a boat anywhere just get down to the water and swim along the coast - you will see tons of fishes, coral, colorful clams and anemones, and even an occasional sting ray

Good hotel away from main sairee beach
At one end of the island... Taxis will be expensive to and fro to the main sairee beach. If you know bike then good. Property has good views and are clean. Decent breakfast

Beautiful hotel but we were exhausted hiking to our room. The hotel was built into the side of a hill and has very steep climbs (particularly if your room is in bldgs 4 or 5). They do provide tuku transportation up, but only to a point, then stairs the rest of the way. Absolutely not for wheelchairs, walkers, strollers, or persons not able to use stairs.

Fair hotel with beautiful views and lots of stairs
Great location with amazing views but out of town. Very spacious rooms overlooking the pool but bathrooms had a bad smell. Fair breakfast and lots of stairs. Great snorkeling right at the hotel! Would recommend it :)

Excellent for Canadians
We were greeted on the pier with a sign with our name on it and a great smile. We were driven to the resort at the north terminus end of the main north-south road. The trip time took around 12 minutes. We got a nice drink and were checked in by the front desk within 7 minutes of arrival and were in our room 2 minutes later. This was welcomed as we had been travelling for over a day to get there. We stayed in a deluxe poolside room, which is just off the main lobby area. It overlooks the pool with Nang Yuan islands in the background. The room had a clean bathroom with toilet and open shower. The shower is heated with an in-room electric unit and it produces a hot stream of water. The bed is king sized and comfortable. The TV has several English channels (BBC, NatGeo, Diva) with an unusual amount of Canadian home renovation content. There's a desk and a chair. There are eight hangers. Bring plastic bags for dirty clothes and transfer them as used and keep them around the hangers at the door. Use the lock on your bag as a safe and your bag as drawers. The balcony with two chairs, a table, and towel drying stand. AC could keep the room at 22c. The Sunsets at Sunset Restaurant are beautiful. The Thai Food was well spiced and portioned. The Western food lightly spiced. Great service! The Snorkel site produces a lot of clean water, an easy slope into the ocean, plentiful fish, and pretty coral. Staff is very friendly, helpful, and genuinely kind by Canadian standards.

Not worth the money and poorly managed
Views are obviously amazing. But this comes at the expense of being near nothing, on an island with the most expensive taxis in Thailand. The location would be fine if the hotel was exceptional but it is overpriced and gets pretty tiresome pretty quick. We paid more for what we thought would be a better room/a bungalow. The bungalow wasn’t as nice as the standard rooms that other family members were in and was up a ridiculous hill. I’m in my late 20s and work a physical outdoor job and I still thought the hill was ridiculous. The place needs tidying up, there’s **** everywhere. Main gripe was the staff, the young staff try hard but they have no leadership. As an example: there’s 1 male and 1 female toilet at the breakfast area; the male toilet is out of action as the manager stands in there smoking all morning and occasionally ****ing all over the seat. Like seriously what the ****, why would anyone think that is acceptable. The next nearest toilet is up and down multiple sets of stairs and not nearby. When I went to complain to reception, the staff were all asleep (it was about 9.30am). Someone needs to step in and straighten the place out if they wish to charge as much as they do
