Koh Tao Hotels with Pools

The service at the Tarna Align resort is impeccable. They keep you in touch via Whatsapp and are incredibly welcoming and helpful. Golf buggies take you anywhere you want to go into Sairee and then bigger vans for the pier. They provide good amenities eg toothpaste. We stayed in a Villa Sea View room which had absolutely stunning views and a great balcony. It was a short trip into Sairee for walks in the day or for night time activities. The only downside was the room. 1. It was incredibly dark with all the lights on at night with no option to have brighter lights on. 2. The bedside table is a small floating shelf next to the bed and sloped downwards so in the night things would fall off onto the floor. 3. The only way to control lighting and air con was by a panel on one side of the bed which meant if one person fell asleep the other person had to try and get out to get to the panel. 4. Beware of the glass door to the toilet- we both walked into it and bruised ourselves as it was so clean and see through. Could benefit from stickers on it to prevent this. 5. The fridge is right behind the bed and very noisy so we had to unplug it at night to sleep

It was a wonderful stay with friendly people. The cabin we stayed in was very nice and they arranged transportation from the hotel back to the pier. It is within walking distance of all kinds of nice shops and restaurants and also has a restaurant on the beach.

We splurged for a Deluxe Pavilion room, and it was absolutely stunning! We had a wraparound private balcony with stunning views of the marina and beach. Yes, this resort has a LOT of stairs, but it's because it was built into the hillside. Architecture integrates in the natural stone, which is really amazing. The pool is lovely with a bar that kicks off happy hour at 5pm. Food is delicious, including the breakfast (opt in for that - it's worth it!). The dive shop and marina are on property, which made diving every day so easy. The beach is filled with reefs and coral so easy to snorkel and see giant clams, reef fish, etc if you don't want to scuba dive. While the spa has a lovely space, our masseuses were not good, so go elsewhere for a Thai massage. Everyone we met was so helpful and courteous. Would definitely come back!

Breakfast is OK but nothing special. Already had a more extensive offer. Dinner in the restaurant is very good. The accommodation - we had a bungalow (a suite according to the description) - for 4 people with a sea view. Very nice. The beach section is dirty and not ideal for swimming. There are 2 beautiful pools, but we searched in vain for the pool bar.

This hotel is in a great location, walking distance to all of the main bars and shops.. Ohoo, behind the desk was so welcoming and helped with any of our problems straight away which contributed to the comfort of our stay. The pool was lovely and clean and overall it’s great value for money! Possibly one of the best hotels we stayed in on our trip

This hotel is great for people trying to dive. If you're looking for rooms right on the beach then there may be better options, but the rooms that they do have are very good and it feels like you're walking up in the forest. The staff are very kind, there are a lot of great restaurants (vegetarian friendly) and it's very close to the night parties. I stayed in the jungle house which is the last set of rooms. They have to call you a golf cart which takes like 2 minutes to get to your room. It's a bit inconvenient, but not a deal breaker. There is a nice infinity pool for every different set of places so it's good and secluded.

A truly special place occupying an entire beach section of Koh Tao. The most amazing snorkeling right at the resort’s beach- felt so lucky to be able to just wake up and literally step down to the beach and see black tip sharks, TURTLES, and all sorts of huge fish. Truly magical. Restaurant on site is fantastic. Free yoga by amazing teachers. Staff are friendly - feels very much like a family run resort. Had a sea view room- spacious, with a beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean and a sunny reading nook. Would definitely recommend taking 2 or more nights here if you’re in Koh Tao.

The location is near the end of the beach, so it's a bit of a walk to get to the ”main area”, but the distance is easily walked along the beach. This is also somewhat of a blessing, as it reduces the noise level at night. We stayed in an AC bungalow, which was nice. However, the shower had very poor water pressure, and there are no curtains on the windows, despite the fact that the other bungalows and rooms can look directly in on you... We had to find cardboard to cover them... They have a restaurant on site, which is priced higher than some of the restaurants in the main area, but *most* of the food is good (not great), and the staff are really nice, so we ate there relatively often (as it was better than walking back and forth to the main area). Despite some relatively minor annoyances, we'd happily stay there again, depending on the price.

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.

Nice pools and swim up bar. Staff are friendly. The room was very big which was great. There were a few maintenance issues but expected as this is an older hotel. The hand held wand in the shower did not work properly as you had to continue to hold the knob out to keep it running, the door to the bathroom did not open properly, and as there were twin beds, individual covers would have been better than one whole cover than barely reached to the edges of the two beds. We have a saying, ”as useless as a glass door in a toilet” ...there was actually a glass door in the toilet which means there is no privacy and no-one else can be in the bathroom. Even frosting on the glass would have been better. USB outlets would have helped. I would recommend a ground floor as there aren't any lifts. Aside from this, the water pressure was good, the air-conditioning was fantastic and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. I would recommend staying in this area as it is close to the pier and shops surrounding the pier and it's quiet. It is cheap to go into the town by taxi and enjoy your time there but come back to the quiet of this area. We liked your staff member called Trip, and we hope that he gets his cat back to the island soon.
