Best Koh Yao Hotels

"The breakfast restaurant is gorgeous. The private pool in the pool room was large enough for a proper swim. However, I actually preferred the standard rooms, as they were cleaner and bug-free. The pool rooms felt a bit *too* natural for my liking – with an open-air courtyard bathroom, I was genuinely worried about snakes coming in if I needed to use it late at night. Overall, it was very good. Compared to other accommodations for island hopping in Phuket, it offers excellent value for money, though the sea itself here is quite unremarkable. They also provide a daily resort credit of 1000 THB per room per night, and it was really pleasant to still have almost 200 THB left over daily to spend on drinks and food."

"This is a very cost-effective resort. The infinity pool by the sea is beautiful👍 It feels 80 meters long and is the first choice for swimming enthusiasts. The breakfast is rich and delicious, the dinner is delicious and inexpensive, the single-family original thatched wooden house is very impressive, and the sunrise every morning🌅 is so beautiful! Tranquility and far-reaching ~"

"If you want a quiet retreat away from the hustle and bustle of Phuket, this little piece of paradise is almost perfect. Staff were great (Sin was very friendly and helpful), room was clean and spacious, bed large and comfortable, great views, breakfast, pool etc. Room for improvement: the shower was decent but could have been better, the small white desk/bedside table was not comfortable and didn't really fit in with the rest of the decor in the room, and I didn't get a reply to the email I sent prior to my arrival asking about transfers to the property. Overall though, still great and we would have loved to stay longer."

"The location is fabulous, right on a beautiful beach with stunning sunsets. The room was good with swimming pool right outside. The breakfast was a bit chaotic with long queues for coffee and eggs. The village restaurants were great."

"We would have liked to have stayed longer. We have never had such friendly staff. They even helped us rent a scooter and drove us there personally and we didn't have to worry about taking the scooter away. In general they were very helpful and we were given a warm welcome. The room was also super clean and we slept in very comfortable beds. If we come to Ko Yao Noi again, we would come back here straight away. Really a recommendation! Thank you for everything :)"

"Our room was absolutely gorgeous, really spacious and spotlessly clean. The jacuzzi bath was fabulous and the view from the resort was magical. The food in the restaurant was OK, there are other cheaper and tastier restaurants within walking distance though. We hired a bike for the day which was hassle free and cheaper than the rental place next door. The pool area was beautiful and we even saw a couple of water monitor lizards. The owner and staff are super friendly and helpful, I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who wants a quiet, relaxed and authentic Thai island experience."

"I visited over a weekend with my wife and three daughters. We booked a family beach villa and had a beautiful stay. Please note, that for those who are sensitive to mosquitoes, the rooms are infested with them. The property does their best in providing repellents of different types but good to know ahead of time. Also, to note, the family villa is one large open room with two king beds; perfect for families with small kids but not for two couples. The property’s access to the beach is ideal. We experienced the complimentary kayaking, and our long boat ride came to pick us up right off the private beach. The gardens, the swimming pool (1.2mtr), and the beach access makes It ideal for families with young children."

"We recently enjoyed a 2 night stay at Cape Kudu and we loved it there. Highlights - The staff: Super friendly & helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them. From the front desk, to restaurant waiting staff, to the housekeeping staff, to the managers… everyone seemed genuinely welcoming and there to support our every need. - Ambience: The hotel was beautiful - from the pool & restaurant with their gorgeous sea view, to the thoughtfully decorated clean & bright rooms, to the gorgeous spa, everything felt designed to help you relax and unwind in peaceful surroundings. We loved the vintage cars parked outside too… and the beautiful flowers all around… The whole place was just 🤩 Other things we loved: - It was my partner’s birthday & they put a cake in the room for us - The food & drinks at the restaurant were delicious - The musicians (restaurant had live music) were great - The spa was beautiful & we both enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing massage there - Easy to arrange transport (scooter rental right next door & local taxis available for getting back to the pier) Areas for improvement: - The pool in the room needed some maintenance, specifically the top rung of the ladder was missing, which made it difficult to enter and exit the pool"

"The hotel is nice but I should have realised from the photos it would be over-run with screaming kids! The beachfront location is stunning and the beach is lovely and clean, walk down to the beachfront early if you'd like one of the hotel loungers brought onto the beach, it's very peaceful until the loud families and Russians turn up a bit later! The breakfast was basic, I would like to see more choices, a bigger selection of fresh fruit and better coffee machines (they were constantly breaking during our stay). The restaurant menu wasn't that great, and the staff in the restaurant were not very attentive. There are a selection of lovely local restaurants and cafes nearby that have much better food, I'd recommend trying some of them, all walking distance. the room was good, although nowhere near enough shower gel, shampoo etc for two of us to use, thankfully we brought our own. No sound proofing from other nearby rooms which was annoying when we had to sleep early and the neighbours were awake until 3am on their balcony. The lagoon style pool around the resort is a great idea but not great if you don't want screaming kids splashing around outside your room all the time, even late when the pool was supposed to be shut. All in all it was a nice stay for families but as a couple we would not book here again as we prefer more peace and quiet!"

"Stayed in countless hotels in Phuket and nearby islands, this hotel should be the most cost-effective. Although the breakfast is average, the service attitude is super good and the scenery is beautiful. We arrived early at 8 o'clock to check in soon, and provided free breakfast. House keeping five waiters were fast and good. The only disadvantage is that the hotel is still under construction. The environment on the road is not as good as Six Senses, but the price is too conscience compared with Six Senses. There is a convenience store more than 100 meters away from the hotel, and it is very convenient to rent a motorcycle to town. There are many cheap and delicious restaurants around."
