An incredible stay”
Although the overall staff performance was just a bit above average, there were two staff who stood head and shoulders above the rest and really made the service level quite high. The location on Tanote Bay is secluded, so if you want to spend time elsewhere or in town, keep that in mind - you'll need a motorbike. We, however, spent most of our time at the resort because the snorkeling directly off shore is phenomenal. We booked a snorkel tour with O2 - the hotel was going to charge 850 to do that, but the tour only charged 650 over the phone - I think they are a bit greedy about that. The views are spectacular throughout. We stayed in one of the cottages, quite a few stairs to get there, but worth it for the seclusion and view. Food in the restaurant was reasonably priced (commensurate with the high quality) Definitely going back!

Great Place in Tanote Bay!”
I like Tanote Bay as it is less crowded and a great place to snorkel and relax. This is NOT the party side of Koh Tao! I stayed in one of the 'treehouses' (fan bungalow across the road and up in the trees, but with a view of the sea) and really loved it. The fan was all I needed as there was a sea breeze that kept it from getting too hot and it felt very private. If you have any problem with stairs, however, the bungalows are not for you and I would suggest the hotel itself. The pool was small but nice and the food was really good! I would stay here again.

Beautiful spot for relaxing and swimming on the beach”
This is one of my favorite spots on Koh Tao. The resort is beautifully located just off the beach with a nice pool and restaurant overlooking the beach. We stayed in the air-con rooms: clean, comfortable, well maintained. The staff are friendly and helpful. The restaurant has a good mix of Thai seafood and western favorites. The beach is great for swimming and one of the best on the island for snorkeling. Nice coral, lots of fish, a small rocky island in the middle of the bay you can climb onto and jump off. There are 2 or 3 other small resorts on this beach, a couple of massage places, a couple of dive shops. So it's quiet but not totally isolated. The resort provides free taxis at certain times to get to some of the more populated beaches if you need more entertainment or eating options. Or you can order a taxi yourself from reception at any time. All in all, a lovely place to spend some time. Thanks to Montalay for a great holiday! We'll be back.

Total relax”
Every time - I stay 1-2 nights here. Great place for snorkeling (1 min walk) Great breakfast Living in bungalows - better, than in building. Fan is enough for comport sleeping in bungalows. Near the hotel - very authentic cafe - with pillows and hammok. You can see - sunrise on sea and stars on the night sky, lights from hotels very quiet Swimming pool is very deep (50%) - so you can jump ))) or take lessons of diving

Great place”
We stayed 3 nights at the resort. The room was great. The restaurant is great. The employees all were fantastic and very helpful. We had a great time there and would love to come back. Definitely one of the best places we stayed in thailand. Little isolated for a real long stay but easy to catch a cab. But perfect place to get away to a peaceful place.

Lovely place for a short break”
The hotel is located on a beautiful, small, (almost) private beach, with perfect snorkelling conditions. At low tidy, it is difficult to swim, but then there is the swimming pool. The hotel is rather old but well maintained, wiht lots of greenery. The A/C is good, hot and cold water with good pressure, good quality shower cream and shampoo, reasonably comfortable bed in a large room, with small balcony. Breakfast is standard, coffee is terrible. Staff are friendly and most helpful. If you wish to travel to some other place, the taxi service is reliable and cheap and much safer than using a motorbike. Overall, we had a very pleasant 4 day holiday at Montalay at an attractive price!

Spectacular beach and view”
We stayed in a basic, fan bungalow that suits all needs for a short stay. The temperature wasn’t too high and the bed was comfortable. The bungalow was a bit run down with a broken door handle, but apart from this we were completely satisfied.

Great spot on Tanote”
Stayed in the bldg aircon room- spacious w/ comfy bed. Lights in the bathroom were too dark and water didnt drain quite well in the shower area. Pool was good. Snorkeling was great- didnt need to swim far out as in Shark bay. Sand was rocky and coral. Was the only room during stay- felt safe, will return.

Very friendly and service minded staff ”
We still staying in Montalay. Normally booked 2 nights ,but after decided to stay 2 nights more. Nice quiet beach with snorkeling point ( a lot of colorful fish and interesting coral rif). Hotel provides free transfer 4 times a day to and back to Sairee ,Chalok baan kao and pier. Staff very attentive to all customers needs and very friendly, maybe this is the main reason why we decided to extend our stay with Montalay. I recommend to anyone come and chilling here.

December on the beach- Dec22-26,2020”
Its a December holiday to remember. The resort was beautifully maintained and the staff were very accomodating and friendly. They really took care of us during our stay.. The food was yummy too. The rock formation surrounding the beach were all istagrammable too. I would definitely come back with my family and friends here. Thank you, Montalay for your great service. Keep it up!

Switched to a more expensive room and actually preferred the cheaper one.”
The treetop cottages are absolutely awesome if you don't mind climbing a lot of stairs to get to your room. It is definitely worth it for the view you get. And the view from the bathroom shower is the most incredible. The other, more expensive, rooms in the hotel-proper don't actually have a view because of the trees (and the water doesn't get as hot over there). Still wasn't upset with the hotel room, but I was expecting nights 2 and 3 to exceed night 1's stay. I really like this hotel but you will need a motorbike. The rental places in this area were out of bikes (New Year's holiday) which would've been a problem if the lady at the neighboring resort bar not been such a sweetheart. They usually rent motorbikes at the resort next door but they were also out so she drove me into town to get one. Other than lack of motorbike rental on premise, I think the kayak rental should've been free since we were customers, but oh well. Make sure you jump from Poseidon rock as well. Scary but fun!
