Hotels near Laem Thian, Koh Tao

A wonderful place for recreation 🫶 lived 2 families from 25 to 30 December in the smallest villa, all this time with us were wonderful Steve and Muhammad. Steve took us all over the island wherever we wanted and took us from anywhere, thank you Steve 🙏Muhammed also took care that our rest was careless, helped to organize the washing, Organized us a tour to the sea 🙏ville clean every day, there is everything necessary for cooking food (we did not prepare TK on the sairi a lot of delicious cafes). I definitely recommend this place for rest, very atmospheric and comfortable, in the surrounding jungle ❤️

I really liked the hotel. We rented a family apartment, unit 1. It had a living room with a bunk bed and a small kitchenette, plus one bedroom with a large bed. The staff were friendly, helped with our luggage, and let us check in earlier than scheduled. The rooms were clean, and water was replenished daily. There was air conditioning, and both hot and cold water. There was a TV, but the Wi-Fi was weak and sometimes cut out. The kitchen had a kettle, toaster, and stove. The hotel is situated a bit further inland on the island, nestled in a small wooded area. Insects were sometimes a bother. And sometimes at night and in the mornings, there would be noise – maybe birds, or squirrels, or some other unknown creature. A cat here, after receiving affection from our family, decided it would start visiting us for food. And I must say, it was persistent; it could sit by our door for days. One morning, I saw a scene: the cat was sitting next to the lower half of a squirrel, right by our door. Not such an innocent kitty after all! We couldn't hear any traffic. We rode scooters to the beach; walking wasn't an option. Within walking distance, there's a 7-Eleven, scooter rentals, local eateries, and laundromats. The pool was clean and pleasant, about 1.5 meters deep. The only thing we didn't like was the layout of the paths specifically leading to our bungalow. In my opinion, they were illogically designed; there were steps in some places where you could easily trip and fall, potentially needing help to get up if you were unlucky. My wife only ended up with scrapes on her knees. It would be more logical to have a direct path, but here you have to go around, doubling or even tripling the distance to and from the bungalow. But I guess some people might not mind it. Overall, I'd say we were happy with the place and enjoyed our stay. Thank you, I wish you good sales and satisfied guests!

I think it is the best hostel ever. It’s very safe and cozy all staffs are friendly and helpful. You can book the diving package from the hotel. The breakfast is good one main course , bread , milk , pancakes and fruits. The toilet is very clean and the facilities are so good. There is a free shuttle bus for going to the beach randomly in each day if you want to go you can tell the staffs. The location is very easy to get some food and stuff. 5 minutes walks to 7-11. I love this hostel so much. I will come back again. The shuttle pick up from the pier is 100 bath per one way.

I want to leave a review about this hotel. The location is good; the only downside is the loud music in the evening and late into the night coming from the central beach. The room has all the necessary toiletries, including earplugs and razors. The bungalow-style rooms are the best thing here, because overall there are significantly more negatives. The service is not very good — the staff at the reception and in the restaurant seem indifferent. The beach is a bit dirty, with a lot of small stones that make it uncomfortable to walk. The sea is very shallow, and you have to walk quite far to get deep enough to swim. If you just want to lie around and relax like a hippo, it might suit you. The food in the restaurant is of a low standard. The room costs almost $190 per night, but the variety of food is very limited, and the products don’t seem to be of good quality. Cheese at breakfast was even served in its packaging. The only thing that really saves this hotel is the view from the room. We chose an ocean view. The hotel also offers free snorkeling masks.

We had an amazing time there. I really have nothing bad to say about it.  First of all- the stuff. Always welcoming you with a smile and treating you with a personal attention. for example we told them we’re going to the beach and they offered us to borrow snorkeling masks for free. Also I got hurt in my leg and they really helped me to bandage it.  The most appreciated thing is that they heard our ferry back is at noon so they offered us late check out for free!  Beside that, the room is very clean, the view to the beach from the balcony is a big wow. the coffee at breakfast is just perfect.  Thank you so much guys ♥️♥️♥️ hope to come back someday.

Good service throughout our stay with staff being helpful and friendly. Has a nice pool area and loungers on beach front. In a good central location in Sairee area. The room we had was large and generally clean although does seem to have an issue with drain flies, despite trying to get rid of them each day there would be numerous more by the next day. Also be prepared for mosquitoes! Aside from this still recommend.

We stayed in a triple room. It had everything we needed. Breakfast was included. While there wasn't a huge variety, you'd find something to eat (scrambled eggs, rice, meat, greens, fruit). The staff were friendly and ready to help if needed. The beach was nice. We went when the waves were high, so snorkeling wasn't really an option. There were small sharks swimming near the shore.

A corner of paradise on Koh Tao! The Sairee Cottage Resort is simply stunning. It's perfectly located, right on Sairee Beach, with spectacular sunsets and a relaxed atmosphere that instantly makes you feel like you're on vacation. The rooms and bungalows are meticulously maintained, clean, and nestled in a beautiful tropical garden.

The best thing about this hotel is its location. We stayed in the beachfront bungalows. The cove is beautiful, and you get a perfect view of the sunset. The staff are also very friendly and helpful. However, the facilities are quite run-down. The paint is peeling off the walls, the terrace railings are broken, the sheets are stained, and the cushion covers/towels are full of holes and torn. Our bungalow was infested with ants during our stay, and we saw a couple of cockroaches. Although, the insect issue is somewhat understandable given its location. The air conditioning works well, though it's quite noisy. The shower is also good. Don't be alarmed at night if you hear noises on the roof that sound like an animal running around (I've read some reviews about this); we discovered it was just tree branches scraping the roof. In fact, during the day, there was a man cutting huge branches from a tree that were falling onto our terrace. This definitely wasn't one of our best stays... and it wasn't super cheap either.

The exterior of the hotel is fab, right along a private beach with amazing views, sand and 3 pools, including a dive pool if you need. The restaurant is also pretty scenic and the food relatively affordable for a hotel restaurant. The on-site laundry service is quick and competitively priced. The room itself was a letdown, very dated, dark and not very clean. The bathroom in particular was an issue for me, the shower heads had rusted and not kept clean and the general state of the bathroom was dark and dirty along the walls, sink and floors. The bathroom was full of mosquitos because the shower allows standing water after you shower and doesn't drain, with no windows to open (easily). The bathroom handle was also faulty, but the staff were happy to repair it once notified. I also found a cockroach in the bathroom in the night - appreciate you can't control this, but it just added up to a wider picture with cleaning issues. Finally, the on site gym was unusable. They just need to give the rooms (and gym) a good refurb and refresh. Until then, if you have issues with cleanliness, I advise you not to stay here.
