Very clean, service wonderful, free rides to town and p/u, no restaurant, a couple close by, wooden deck in our Villa was older/flimsy, thought I might fall through. Road up to resort was steep and narrow, typical Thailand. Overall a great stay with amazing vistas!

Be aware that Koh Tao is the new party island. Although the resort is at the very end of the beach, the party music will keep you awake until 3AM! A lost paradise!

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

The smallest of the three islands, it’s like the others used to be 20 years ago. Laid back, easy, great diving, enough fun for the party crowd in a much smaller way but natural and super quiet on the other side. Paradise

Great little island with some real hidden gems. Beaches and restaurants are fantastic. Hire a moped but make sure you take pictures of any damage and point it out to the shop before you drive off
