Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers stunning sea views and well-maintained rooms, although slightly isolated from the city. The service is attentive and kind, highlighting the remote location. The dining experience is pleasant but needs improvements. Overall, a peaceful retreat with surrounding beauty.
The hotel embodies a luxury plantation style with locally made Thai furnishings and artifacts, creating a warm and tranquil atmosphere. The rooms are amazing, spacious, with great views, balconies, and a lovely jacuzzi. However, the additional stairs might be challenging for some. The service is exceptional, with extremely nice, helpful staff who keep the rooms spotless. The location offers excellent views of Shark Bay between giant boulders on the cliff face, though transportation to dining areas can be pricey. The dining experience is satisfactory but could improve with better food protection from flies. Overall, a charming hotel with standout room comfort and attentive service.
The hotel offers stunning rooms with awesome views, and the staff is exceptionally friendly. Although the mattress was quite hard, the overall experience was delightful. The service was top-notch, anticipating our needs, and the location, perched high on a ridge overlooking Shark Bay on Koh Tao, is truly incredible. Dining is very good, although it could be more diverse for a 4-star resort.
