It is an awesome property with a stunning beach and amazing staff. The beach villas are geat and the island is still not very mass touristy. It is a calm island so please don't go if you want to drink and party.

We loved the resort, but we saw a lot of plastic bags, cups, bottles on the beach. We picked them on our way. It’s sad to see so many, especially near the bridge. The resort could have provided beach bags for guests who wish to pick up plastic items. Thank you.

OK
Nice beach. Bungalow a little dated. Bathroom dark. Check-in could be improved. Breakfast a bit chaotic. Evening meal tasty but more expensive and no better than walking into the village restaurants. Best location on the island.

Nice clean cabin second row from swimmable beach. Good breakfast. Walking distance to city center. No money exchange in city center. Property phone number not working. Hard to communicate problem with reception. No instructions on how to operate safe box in a room. Employee communicate with walkie talkie. Hard to get around island through muddy roads. Island still recovering from Pandamic.

Best place to stay on island of Koh Mook
Very nice accomodation in a great setting. Best place on Koh Mook no doubt. Seems all Thailand is still struggling post covid, and the island is no exception. Resort very well kept and maintained, cannot say the same for the rest of the island

Wonderful stay at amazing location
Beautiful resort setting at the tip of Koh Muk island. Nicely appointed villa even “second” row, we still get view to the beach. But I have to say beachfront villa gets amazing view! The staffs are wonderful and very eager to help. The restaurant offers variety of selections- all good and reasonably price considering! Love to come back.

Very nice place. It's beautiful. Nice staff. Breakfast is nice too. Great stay. But some things could be improve for the money paid : - free fruits and/or snacks, not only the first day. It's usual in same hotels. - free bike and canoë - cleanless of swimmingpool.

Stunning location!
The location of this resort is absolutely stunning and rare experience you cannot get at many places. The rooms/bungalows were very nice with air condition, each with their own porch with sun-beds. What was not so good: The service was not the best, they did what they had to do but we were there when it was very quiet both due to covid19 situation and that it was end of the season so not many people at all. You’d think they would have the time to provide great service but they did not more than required at any time.. the food at the resort was not very nice at all and very overpriced so would not recommend eating there, you can have a drink to enjoy the amazing atmosphere and environment but go someplace else to eat to get more value for your money. But overall, if I wanted to go back to koh mook I definitely believe this is the only resort with that kind of standard and unique offers so would stay here again!

A piece of paradise
I booked a beachfront bungalow at Sivalai expecting some relaxing time and the resort met this expectation at 100%. The location is amazing and sand on the beach feels like flour. No other resort on Koh Mook has it. The bungalow is spacious and well designed but the bathroom is dated and water pressure is low. Great atmosphere at the resort, quiet and respectful guests, no parties. 2 very clean pools. We've also booked a massage at the spa and it was a relaxing experience. What could be improved is definitely the restaurant. It isn't bad, but value and flavor of the food are far behind some of those other great restaurants down the beach. Breakfast was plentiful but usually cold and not very flavorful. Another thing is that staff won't let you on the restaurant deck unless you're barefoot which was a huge issue for me as I had cut my foot badly on the coral and that floor was just FILTHY. In general the staff is nice but quite giggly and unprofessional. There is a bicycle rental on site but it closes at 5 PM so if you want to go the the other side of the island and watch the sunset, you need to look for rentals on town. There were shops on site with souvenirs and snorkel gear. I'd recommend this place as the best on the island but not a 5 star experience

Slight niggles , but overall Great :)
The wow factor of one of the beachfront superior villas is undeniable. Would have given staff a 5 , but breakfast take away for a trip never materialised and 2 taxis for departure were not on time. The food in the restaurant for breakfast could include back bacon and English sausages would be nice. But overall stay was fantastic.

this spot was one of the highlights of our three week trip, Koh Mook island is what Thailand was 20 years ago. friendly, small feel, chill. the Sivalai resort is the biggest on the island, and is situated on the best beach, we stayed in a beach front bungalow, and it was amazing to wake up each morning and walk out to the water. the staff were awesome. it was a bit of a trek getting here, and they arranged everything for us!! the island is small, and there is always a friendly motorbike taxi driver ready to take you to Charlie beach for sunset, then around to any of the local restaurants afterwards. we had a great time at the resort and a great time exploring this wonderful little island

Picture Perfect Resort
Transferring from the mainland at Trang to the Sivalai Resort by sppedboat is a fabulous experience. The resort is picturesque and looks stunning with its powder white beach. We stayed in a beach front villa and wished that we had stayed for at least another night or two. The Villa was extremely comfortable and we used their laundry service for a freshen up of clothes. We only ate one night in the restaurant which is typical resort food but it was much more fun to venture into the local village for Thai street food plus supporting the local economy too.

Sivalai Beach, Koh Mook
Nice place to relax - beautiful sandy beach - a lot of good local places to eat (very cheap) If you are looking for a place with action, disco and so, Koh Mook is not the right place - but for 3-5 days to relaxing its perfect and the beach is the best on this Island

Hotel location is great. The beach is superb and the sand is glorious. However the sea is very shallow and not deep enough to swim duriymost of the day. The island is very quiet. Hotel prices are high compared to the local restaurants- would recommend the “Perfect Bar” which is located on the beach at the far end of the bay.

Clean and Comfort stay
This is a comfort hotel, with all the facilities & cleanliness you need. Good location, but lack of charm & liveliness. Staff is nice and polite. The view (as in the hotel web) is no longer as advertised, with beach erosion, the hotel protects its land with sand bags >> not so beautiful anymore. Farang beach, on the other side of the island, is worth a try.

Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your feedback about the erosion, we have to tell you frankly that the erosion is one of the big problem that we are facing now. As we know that here is no way to win mother nature and we do not want to destroy her :( Since Sivalai Beach is our homeland then we will try our best to keep the beach look almost the same or look similar in the picture. Hope you understand our situation. Regards, Koh Mook Sivalai Beach Resort Team

Beautiful location on a sand spit, with beaches on north and south side. Not much of a town nearby, but there are little markets to buy supplies. Pools are great but beaches are very shallow for quite a ways out. I recommend for a quiet and restful time.

Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your comments and feedback, please kindly be informed that to come to Koh Mook from the nearby island such as Koh Kradan or Koh Ngai, we would like to recommend you to leave there in the morning to avoid the strong wind. However, if you are in Koh Lanta then we would like to recommend you to come to Kuan Tung Ku Pier which we are able to arrange the boat to pick you up there. Finally, we hope that we will have a chance to welcome you back to Koh Mook Sivalai Beach Resort again.

Great stay, great island!
First of all, I would definitely recommend as the beach/island are great. The people at the hotel definitely made us feel welcome, but the place is absolutely basic, and I was disappointed at the restaurant. The menu stays the same each day/each meal, and the place is a bit aged overall, but as I say, I would definitely still visit.
