Top Mae Haad Bay Hotel Reviews

Lücke Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The bed is so comfy! Had a fabulous stay we loved it."

Koh Tao Montra Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Super duper hotel! Very friendly staff"

Ko Tao Paradise Resort

10/10 Excellent

"-Beautiful Ambience -quiet enough for work -delicious breakfast (American style/ Thai style, Vegan banana pancakes) -useful shuttles every 30 minutes for tourist attraction -useful shuttle back to lomprayah approximately every 5 in a half hours -weaker sewage pump so it was advised not to flush paper and to trash it instead, staff was on top of cleaning trash very often"

Haadtien Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was great, the staff we so kind. Arranged a cake for my daughters 12th birthday. It was a lovely place to stay so relaxing. Highly recommend the diving, Maca was a great instructor. Thank you"

In Touch Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Big, comfortable rooms. The hotel restaurant overlooking the beach was beautiful and good."

Sai Daeng Resort

8/10 Good

"Beautiful rooms, staff were warm welcoming and helpful"

Ban's Diving Resort

8/10 Good

"This hotel has everything you could need. There are multiple pools, the rooms are generously sized, and the breakfast has many options including freshly cooked omelettes and pancakes (though can be extremely busy at times). You can cut across the front road and straight on to the beach. The staff are also extremely helpful. When we realised we would not have enough time to make our flight back from Koh Samui with the ferry option we had chosen, Siri at Reception called Bangkok Airways for us to see if we could alter flights. The only thing we didn't like was our room was close to the beach and there was loud music until late every night that came into our room so suggest booking a room higher up the hill if you are a light sleeper. Also there are mosquitos."

Pinnacle Koh Tao Resort

8/10 Good

"Room was dated but clean. The size of the room was great. Keep in mind that there is a lot of stairs! Pool area is in the process of being updated but the pool water didn't seem as clean as it could be. Food was decent just a bit annoying that room service didn't start until 2pm. Breakfast was good, small selection but good tasting."

Lotus Paradise Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful big clean rooms. Super friendly and helpful staff. The property is in a great location close to the beach and activities. Definitely worth the fee for adding breakfast!"
