Better view koh yao yai ★★★★

📍 Better view, koh yao yai 58/13 moo 4, Koh Yao Yai

"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."

📍 69/8 moo 4, klong bon, Koh Yao Yai

"Excellent hotel located on the seafront, near a pier, with a splendid view of the sunrise. There are two swimming pools, one of which has pool access rooms. A restaurant with excellent cuisine is also on site. The rooms are very comfortable."

Anattaya Holiday Home
8.8 (473 reviews)

Anattaya Holiday Home ★★★

📍 21, 1, Ko Yao Noi, Ko Yao District, Chang Wat Phang-nga, Koh Yao Noi

"Ninaa is just an awesome host! very welcoming, friendly, any question is super easy to solve and it’s pleasant to talk to her. The same as with people surrounding her. I would stay more, but it was fully booked already, people love this place, simple and cosy, wooden houses, calm courtyard hidden in trees."

📍 2/9 Moo 3 Tambol Phu Nai Ampur Ko Yao, Phru Nai, Koh Yao Yai

"We were really looking forward to our stay here, but unfortunately, nothing matched our expectations or the photos shown at the time of booking. Instead of a cozy wooden bungalow with a jungle view, we were given a room in a concrete building with thin wooden partitions that had gaps, making it impossible not to hear every sound and conversation from the neighboring rooms. The room itself was a nightmare: spiders and other insects everywhere, mattresses so worn out that you could feel every spring, and bed linen that did not seem fresh at all. The bathroom was missing basic essentials like soap and toilet paper, while black mold covered parts of the walls. A broken bathroom shelf was hanging crookedly, and the shower only had cold water, with half of it leaking straight from the hose instead of coming out of the showerhead. After a sleepless night, we decided to leave. The owner initially assured us that we would be refunded for the remaining nights but told us to arrange it through ***********. However, Booking only refunded one night, stating that the refund was at the discretion of the owner. When we confronted him again, he suddenly barely spoke English and kept repeating the same sentence, making any further discussion impossible. Other guests also had non-functioning toilets, which reinforced our impression that this place deliberately takes advantage of backpackers. Just a short distance away, we found a far better accommodation for only 4–5 Euros more per night. Conclusion: Absolutely not recommended!"

Koyao Island Resort Hotels in Koh Yao

Koyao Island Resort

"The best beach on the whole island of Koh Yao Noi. Private 220meters long beach and its view. I appreciate the help of all the staff."

YAO Bada Badoo Boutique Resort Hotels in Koh Yao

YAO Bada Badoo Boutique Resort

"My wife and I stayed at Yao Bada Badoo for 6 nights and absolutely loved it. Our room was classy and beautifully appointed with high ceilings and modern fittings. The bathroom was a standout and the bed was so comfortable it was hard to get out of. Our host Stacey and her staff went above and beyond in making our stay truly fantastic. The resorts location and proximity to beaches, activities, dining and the main pier is perfect. If you're looking for your oasis, this is it!! "

Laguna Villas Boutique Hotel Hotels in Koh Yao

Laguna Villas Boutique Hotel

"A beautiful complex of nine very spacious villas surrounding a very large swimming pool. The villas are well-maintained, the bedding comfortable, and bottled water is plentiful. Each villa has two sun loungers with mattresses, and others are arranged around the pool. The garden is beautifully landscaped; a real kudos to the gardeners. For breakfast, you are asked the day before to choose from several sets, but since nothing suited us, we asked for what we wanted. The restaurant is very good and inexpensive—the best we ate at, and we tried quite a few! The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because of the small road that separates the villas from the beach, which is quite busy. Furthermore, the beach isn't the most inviting, neither at high tide nor, even less so, at low tide. The price is also rather high for a small island, but these are the prices charged on all the Thai islands at the moment."

Jaiyen Eco Resort Hotels in Koh Yao

Jaiyen Eco Resort

"The resort is very secluded, but surrounded by beautiful nature. You have to be aware that there's nothing within walking distance. It's a place to truly unwind. Our room was lovely, and the dogs and cat living there were incredibly cute and well-cared for. We were only moderately satisfied with the service, and the prices for the rather small portions were a bit steep. We booked a boat trip through the hotel and specifically asked if they could recommend something less touristy. Unfortunately, the trip turned out to be to several overcrowded, extremely touristy beaches—a real tourist trap. We were totally disappointed and found it a shame that Jayen Resort recommends and books such excursions. This mass tourism doesn't really fit with their "sustainability concept." I wouldn't recommend staying longer than two nights. Overall, it's a nice resort, but for us, the price-performance ratio wasn't quite right."

Koh Yao Yai Village ★★★★
"Absolutely loved the outdoor shower in the room! All the staff were incredibly friendly, and the hotel offers a free shuttle service to Long Beach. The breakfast spread every morning was plentiful, and the resort has amazing wildlife – I even saw a black-tailed squirrel 🐿️. The hotel's cocktails are definitely worth trying too!"

Thiwson Beach Resort ★★★
"Generally a nice hotel with decent food, nice pool and a beach with beautiful views. Cottage is fine if not afraid of insects. The biggest letdown was actually the staff, they never smiled, they never acted polite and seemed to be depressed. For a beach resort you would expect at least some general happiness with greetings."

Baan Taranya Koh Yao Yai Resort ★★★★
"This was our second stay, and our already positive impression was confirmed once again. The staff are all extremely friendly and always ready to help. There are two pools (some rooms have direct access to the first pool). Everything is well-maintained, and the breakfast is delicious. The hotel is located right on the beach and has a few sun loungers available. The beach is expansive, and you can see the most beautiful sunrises from here if you can get up early enough (ideally, start an hour before sunrise – you'll see the most amazing colors in the sky). There are plenty of restaurants nearby, as well as options for massages and scooter rentals. The hotel offers one free excursion a day to Laem Haad Beach, which is a must-see. Tip: Renting a scooter gives you the flexibility to watch the stunning sunset from Laem Haad Beach (stay a little longer there, as the sky becomes incredibly colorful after sunset). Koh Yao Yai has strong tides. At low tide, the beach in front of the hotel, like everywhere else, doesn't look so inviting, simply because there's no water and it appears rather desolate. However, you can take beautiful walks on the mudflats and enjoy the wonderful wildlife with all the crabs and sand dollars, as well as the incredibly beautiful scenery. We had another wonderful time here. Many thanks to the entire team."

"I rated 3 just due to a very low price. It's a quite unmaintained "resort". Gifts, the good things. It has a beautiful seaview. Cheap meals (80 b) from the wife of the chief. The rooms are very basic, but there is a small fridge. Very hard or too soft beds. They do not clean the rooms. We stayed here for 4 days, no cleaning, we asked twice, still nothing. The place is little remote, no restaurants around. The sea is about 800 m, but with big rocks, can't go to the water easily."
