It's kind hard to get to the hotel from the airport,the room is very big and nice surround by the nature.We had ocean view bonglow,the view from the room is not so great because the landscaping is poor in front the room .

Relaxed, Fun, Secluded Holiday
Location was amazing, the property was awesome, staff was very friendly & helpful. Lovely pool! Just what we were looking for.
8.7
Our stay at Koh Yao Yai was actually a very pleasant surprise. The hotel itself was very beautiful & spread out. A very well-maintained property, with a very friendly staff. We hired a scooter on one day & drove around the island. The next day we took bikes and rode around. The good thing is, there isn't much to do. So one can have a really relaxed holiday. We spent a lot of time by the pool. Which itself is lovely and has a great view as well.
The only real disappointment at the hotel was the variety & quality of food. The menu is very limited & considering that there are no other proper places to eat around the island, one gets stuck with the same things.

The best all round we have stayed at so far !
The total tranquility of the Island and the people
9.7
The Resort staff were amazing as was the Island and the Resort itself.A little more privacy on the balcony areas of the bungalows would be welcome.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
break the sightseeing trips up over a few days.Shopping best on adjacent Island Koh Yao Noi.

Relaxing week-end away from the City
Seculded. Great Room. Wonderful Spa
8.7
week-end with friends. inital transfer from phuket airport wasn't done, but we found our way to the correct pier ourselves.
room very good, food good. staff good.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Sea View Bungalow. Good size, near the beach, but very private. Due to the trees, not as much of a "sea view" as someone may expect. Worked well for us.

Lovely isolated and near nature hotel
8
Great 5 day stay, hotel has good facilities including an Activity Center where they offer snorkelling, fishing, bike rides... And more)
Hotel room lovely, shower is outside (!), though private, and large bed with good air con.
More entertainment would be good as there wasn't much on the island so you tend to not leave the hotel unless you hire a bike or scooter. The 'all day dining menu' was good but very spicy and a little monotonous by the end.. Buffett options at night are good but a shame they didn't open the BBQ bar on the beech
Hotel is expensive for Thailand but in line with 4 star hotels...
Good pick up motor boat and makes transfer to and from hotel easy, we made our own way to hotel but dont bother because we didnt save much money and there are not many tourists on this island so took us a while to find a driver!
Very relaxing overall, lovely pool, beautiful location with a nice atmosphere (very chilled!) with stunning view.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Ask for a hut near the beech as resort is spread out so can be a long walk to your room from main hotel attractions

Tranquil place to relax and be spoilt
Friendly courteous staff, fantastic sea view villa with great outlook, well organised day trips
8.7
a lovely hideaway where you can leave life’s pressures behind relax and unwind. the staff were always helpful and courteous from the moment of arrival, where we were greeted with a cool towel and drink to departure time were everything was arranged like clockwork
hotel facilities were good with a lovely infinity pool, casual dining area and well maintained grounds. on the the day trip we took to explore the islands we had the boat to ourselves with 2 staff to look after us - perfect. ideal location for those wanting a break from the fast lane.

great "integrated nature" hotel
Location and service excellent

Besides the food, that was not bad, but could be better and the somewhat slow help in the restaurant all was glorious, the room, room 711 with an incredible sea-view and the assistance of the crew.

A dream
the location, the decor, the privacy, the private beach. amazing
10
this has been my favorite hotel out of the six hotels i've stayed in during my thailand trip. the staff was lovely, the location, the decor, the privacy. everything was utterly lovely. what a dream.
wish the food in the restaurant was better but other than that i could live here forever.
the beach is not for swimming. too rocky but can you really complain when it comes to nature. i can not wait to come back.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Leave the nightlife...pretty much everything behind. In total seclusion. Perfect for relaxation and the joy of nothingness.

A dream
Private beach. Amazing service. Gorgeous bungolows
9.3
I can't say enough about this magical place. The service. The private beach although rocky and not good for swimming...the privacy and beauty makes up for it. Unbelievable.
The Bungalows are a dream. Private, comfortable and unbelievable price for this luxury.
I am renewed by my short stay. I can't wait to come back.
The location is far removed from the town but everything you need is at the hotel.
Just wish the restaurant food was better. I would've surely stayed longer.
