Koh Yao Yai Village ★★★★
"My wife and I stayed there for five nights we loved it. We can’t wait to go back. We highly recommend it. The staff was amazing. The food was great !"
Anattaya Holiday Home ★★★
"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."
Santhiya Koh Yao Yai Resort and Spa ★★★★★
"We tried three different room types, and this one was the best. After talking to the front desk, we weren't given the best floor, but at least the view was still pretty good. The restaurant near the lobby had delicious food, but the breakfast restaurant was just average with limited choices, though it did have a great view. Getting to Koh Yao Yai was quite convenient, but you have to pay for it yourself. I traveled from Koh Yao Yai to Krabi directly by speedboat, which was very easy. The island is almost exclusively frequented by Caucasians. As long as you can speak English, you'll get by fine. The staff were very enthusiastic, and I didn't feel any discrimination. There are plenty of activities, so you can stay busy even without leaving the resort. Just a heads-up: kayaking and paddleboarding are free for 30 minutes a day. If the weather is bad and you can't use them, the time doesn't carry over to the next day; it expires. The hotel is huge, and transportation relies entirely on pickup trucks. There are many vehicles, which is convenient, but it feels a bit environmentally unfriendly. The island isn't big; you can get around by scooter, but there isn't much to do, just one sandbar. There was a slight hiccup that I hope they improve. On our last day, when leaving the island for Krabi, there was a miscommunication with the hotel. We waited for a long time, but no staff member called us to get on the car, and our luggage was nowhere to be found. We watched as wave after wave of Europeans got on their buses with their luggage, but no one paid attention to us. I had to go ask myself, otherwise, we wouldn't have gotten on a car or seen our luggage."
Better view 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."
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 ★★★★
"I don’t know whether this resort has had a major overhaul recently but in no way was our experience reflective of the negative reviews on here. We found the staff very welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. A couple of minor maintenance issues with the room but they were attended to instantly. The room very cleaned everyday and had fresh towels whenever we wanted them. We had room A4 - a superior double with a patio area, away from the pool so very quiet with few passers by. Both pools were cleaned every night. The menu is extensive from traditional Thai food to good old English-style fish and chips plus a separate Japanese menu. Breakfast was an absolute feast! All freshly made. Never had to ask for replenishments. In the evening we generally ate for £15-£20 for main courses and drinks for people. Each day there are special offers and combo deals for drinks and food. A short walk to the main street where there are a couple of shops though we didn’t want for much. Toiletries were well stocked and water bottles were replenished every day. We would love to return here again. The staff are the kindest, most attentive and courteous we have ever experienced."
Paradise KohYao ★★★★
"This hotel offers great value for money, with a good environment, excellent ecology, and a quiet atmosphere. The only downside is that the shuttle boat to the island is not free and a bit pricey, at 2000 THB per person for a round trip. For one room, that's 4000 THB."
Elixir Resort Koh YAO Yai ★★★★
"The hotel is not so big but very cute. Thai style room and with super welcomed stuff, they are so polite! Breakfast is nice, you have a lot of choice, western and Thai. I like to eat dinner here and watching sunset. The price is expensive then the local restaurant but also reasonable, and the taste is very good. Tiki bar has happy hour from 5-7pm. Perfect time to watch sunset. The beach and pool never crowded, a perfect place for get away and relaxing. In the afternoon there are a lot of crabs to catch. There are 3 very cute dogs in this resort. If you want to have a quiet vacation and only enjoy, relaxing, I recommend this hotel."
THE REAL ESCAPE - Koh Yao Noi ★★★
"It’s nice the room I booked had no ac though but I still liked it, bathroom and toilet are lowkey the nicest I’ve seen for the price, owner is also very nice. Would recommend."

Banhalawee
"The amenities are very basic. There's no hot water. It's suitable if you plan to explore the island and just sleep in the bungalow. You can also relax during the day, there's air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and they prepare breakfast. If you go up behind all the bungalows, you get a beautiful view of the garden and the sea, and monkeys jump in the trees – I've attached photos. The location is decent if you have a scooter. Without one, the beaches are quite far."
Sea Escape Koh Yao Yai
"I cannot say enough good things about Sea Escape Koh Yao Yai! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like family. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the location is conveniently located only a 5 minute walk from the beach. The owners kindly helped us in booking tours, giving us recommendations for food and drink, and even giving us a ride to the beach. We are very grateful, and definitely want to return soon."
Cape Kudu Hotel, Koh Yao Noi
"Really nice resort on the Koh yao noi which is surrounding with a good environment and vibes. A lots of activities inside the hotel"
BJ Beachfront Hotel
"The atmosphere is very good, quiet."
TreeHouse Villas Koh Yao - Adults Only
"It is a five-star hotel with a good environment and service. It is built for couples and has good privacy. Of course, families can also stay here and watch the sea at any time. There are also paid activities."
Anantara Koh Yao Yai Resort & Villas
"Booked this hotel a week before my trip, and it was still a great choice. The staff were very warm and welcoming."
Samsam YAO Noi - Andaman Magic & Art Villas
"The room is clean Service in place More mosquitoes More geckos"
Six Senses Yao Noi
"The hotel's location and service truly embody wild luxury. Each villa is equipped with a swimming pool, the room is very spacious, and the main concept is natural and environmentally friendly. All configurations are humanized. The housekeeper Kate accompanied us from the beginning of our stay to the end, and customized activities for us. During our stay, it happened to be my daughter's birthday. She prepared a birthday cake and arranged the table attentively and meticulously. Thank you very much! Every employee of the hotel is very enthusiastic and meticulous. I will definitely come again when I have time in the future!"

PHETMANEE RESORT
Big Sun Residences By iRETREAT
"We had a fantastic time for a couple of nights. We were picked up at the speedboat pier, luggage brought for us to the hotel room, greeted with a welcome drink even before checking in, and able to enjoy the remote location and quiet vibe of the hotel. The swimming pool offers a great view, and was rarely in use. This is a very well run, newly built, clean and well serviced hotel. We did not experience any resort activities, nor were we offered any. We hired a scooter for a day, directly at the hotel, at the cost of 300baht. This was a fantastic way to go exploring! Food at the restaurant was very good, although not necessarily fine dining by western standards. Occasionally, some dishes would be unavailable due to missing ingredients, such as avocados - but I guess that is how it is to live on an island! Otherwise a fantastic stay, with staff that really try their hardest for you. It was lovely."
Laguna Villas Boutique Hotel
"This is the third and final time we will stay at this hotel. It has unfortunately been sold and is now run by very unpleasant Thai women who try to extort money from you or charge you for the slightest request. For example, mosquito repellent should be in the room… There have been no renovations; the hotel is old and poorly maintained. The breakfast is awful, with no added value whatsoever. The hotel restaurant is their bread and butter, with dishes served after hours of waiting. There are reports of theft at this hotel. Do not leave any valuables or jewelry. It didn't happen to us because we were careful. In short, avoid this place. Terrible value for money."
9 Hornbills Tented Camp
"We had a perfect stay of 4 nights in the tent. The view is amazing, looking down on the ocean and the beautiful islands. The sunrise is spectacular. Being surrounded by lush green nature and the sound of birds is perfect to relax. The tent was very luxurious. They brought us breakfast to the room every morning, even floating breakfast in the pool. The private dinner we booked extra was one of a kind - private seafood bbq right at the tent. The employees very very kind and friendly, always trying to help as much as they could. The sports massage at the spa was great too. We could also use the beach and pool of the Koyao resort (the resort doesn’t have many rooms so it is never crowded on the beach). We didn’t find anything that wasn’t great."
Dan's Koyao Retreat
"Amazing. Surely the best stay on the island"
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!! "
Purana Resort Koh YAO Noi
"The hotel villas are situated on a forested hillside overlooking a beautiful bay. The villas are beautifully decorated and comfortable with a deck for enjoying the exquisite surroundings. The hotel beach has a tiki bar with decks that are perfectly situated to watch the set set. The restaurant serves 5 star cuisine and overlooks a butterfly garden that is a peaceful setting for breakfast. The hotel property is quiet and the cool ocean breezes are relaxing. The staff is very attentive to ensure that you have the perfect stay. Motor scooters and bicycles are available for rent to explore the island. A perfect getaway."
