We were in room A1 which had the most fantastic sea view with hammock and bath on the balcony. The room was spacious and comfortable. The staff were unlike any we’ve had before, they were so accommodating, always checking we had everything we needed and went over and above for us. The restaurant staff remembered our favourites and always were so friendly and welcoming. The food was delicious and the views outstanding! The receptionist Teddy, went over and above for us organising taxis and making sure we were ok at all times, he was so personable and a fantastic addition to the hotel.

If you don’t hire and bike or car, it can be hard to get to but the hotel is surrounded by beautiful beaches and away from the business of the centre/full moon parties.

The little house in the jungle was very nice and spacious, the restaurant and the pool a beautiful view. The beach below has many activities and the sunset is beautiful.

- One of the nicest staff teams i saw in Southeast Asia. The restaurant/bar staff, housekeeping, the bikes guy and especially the girl at the reception, everyone was nice and professional. - The pool has an amazing view of Haad Yaao and great for sunset and chilling. Also great sea view from the bungalows - Short distance from lots of interesting things in the western coast of the island. Also a great cafe very close with an incredible view

- Location required a bike everywhere. Cant really walk anywhere due to the hilly area . Also the beach access requires walking in the water to get to the beach - Little beds or seating available at the pool. Also sometimes people who are not staying are allowed and taking space (during the weekend expect also families with kids) - Restaurant is good but a pricey doesn’t have too many options.

Great view, extremely nice and friendly staff, clean rooms and facilities

Things to be aware of - 1. there are a lot of steep steps to get to most of the rooms. 2. As the pool is open to outside visitors, it could get noisy and busy. Often, we didn't have a place to sit in the shade. There is always music during the day. It's ok, just something one should be aware of if you are looking for some quiet time. 3. We reserved 2 rooms, but room A29 was so far and took a lot of steps to get to, and also, in contrast to room A5, it was with really basic and plain furniture :( .

The location is excellent. The bungalows are basic but nice, we had a Seaview which was great. The staff, especially in the restaurant & at reception were so friendly. We hired motorbikes from there too which was a good experience. The pool area is fantastic and I absolutely loved the restaurant area. It had such a great vibe and the food was excellent & reasonably priced.

It's hard to think of anything I didn't like. The rooms had a kettle but no coffee provided, the coffee was excellent at the restaurant (and I am super fussy) so I probably wouldn't have drank the instant even if it was there. The only negative for us was there was no access to the beach as they were repairing the steps but this is only temporary. As we'd hired bikes it wasn't too much of an issue. There's a few

This hotel is fantastic! It's located in a beautiful area with some of the best beaches nearby. It's easily accessible, even by scooter. The staff is incredibly kind and attentive. We received an upgrade for a special occasion, which was a lovely surprise. The hotel also offers a pickup service from the pier for a very reasonable price, which is cheaper than a taxi from the pier itself. Additionally, you can rent scooters at the hotel reception, and we received excellent service there as well. The staff really made our stay memorable. Highly recommend this hotel!

Nothing, everything was good.

We stayed in wooden bungalows and while simple, they were all that we needed on this trip. Very clean, silent AC, located in a nice jungle-like garden and away from the crowds, so we had privacy. The staff at the reception were fantastic and very helpful, they helped us organise transport and trips and were always very nice to us. The room was cleaned regularly (you need to hang a door knob sign that you request cleaning but it is not true that they don't do it as some reviews claime). You can rent a scooter at the reception and the vehicles are in top condition. The restaurant staff is super nice, food is fantastic and pool is clean and refreshing. View - as advertised, even better in real life.

Bathroom is very simple, which is ok, but a few shelves and towel hangers would be nice. Water pressure was on the lower side, but nothing unbearable. Bedside table would also be great.

The most amazing view from the pool and our room. The Burmese staff were the kindest and most lovely staff I have ever met in my life. I didn't want to leave and will be back next year. Haad Yao is the best place to stay on the island now i think

The staff at the front desk were rude and yelled a lot with other guests. There was always loud talking and yelling in reception. The first room we got needed to be changed and I could tell they didn't want to help me but i insisted gently and they finally helped me and I was so happy with my new room. Very different attitude to the kind and gentle restaurant staff.

The room was clean with a beautiful sea view, and the swimming pool also offered stunning views of the sea. The staff was friendly and helped us arrange a day trip and pickup services. The food in the restaurant was also good. Overall, our stay was pleasant.

The location of this resort is not beachfront, though we found a shortcut to access the beach, which is only available during low tide. If you want to buy groceries or visit other restaurants, you'll need to walk 10-15 mins, so it's better to rent a motorbike. The toilet was occasionally smelly, but this seems to be a common issue at many resorts on the island. Regardless, this is a very nice place to chill.

Staff extremely friendly & helpful. Rooms are clean, we had two bungalows with amazing sea views whilst still feeling part of the jungle. Bear in mind you are in the jungle so expect some ants (mainly on the balconies) & geckos. The noises of the jungle take some adjusting to but after a few days become the norm.

The steps down to the beach (or rather back up) are a killer, especially in the heat (mid 30s every day during our stay). Depending on your bungalow you may also have a fair amount of steps up & down to the road & back too. These can be a killer in the heat too but are by no means a deal breaker.
