It was very disappointing and the worst stay ever when you see everything on website is lovely such as view and room condition. However, the truth hurts because I experienced below... 1. staff was unhelpful since he asked me to carry my back here and there since he had a motorbike to travel around for servicing. 2. the toilet leaked horribly 3. the curtain was broken and left there behind the sink. I felt uncomfortable at night 4. dusk found and water glasses, toilet rolls are put unordered 5. the aircon was leaking and wet the floor 6. the pool area was horrible because it looked like it had never been cleaned and managed Don’t let beautiful photos fool you. Don’t let the word Covid-19 for excuse to run the business because your business depends on customer trust. ps. I still have photos and everything to prove that my bad experience was true and I will keep them to teach me to be thoughtful when it comes to book a reservation.

The view was spectacular. Everything else about this resort was less then desirable. The entire resort was in dyer need of updates, construction to rebuild things like the docs, stairways, etc and the amenities (pool, pool towels, lounge chairs, etc) were not at all organized or up to standard. For how expensive it was to stay a night (50$) it was not worth it. The location was okay, you could not walk here from the pier, you’d need a scooter most definitely. Because it was on a hillside it was exhausting walking ten minutes up or down each time we needed to go to our hut.

Would not recommend

The only positives about this place we’re the view and the workers were very nice. Besides that the place is very run down, they have an ant infestation problem all around the resort, our bathroom smelt like sewage the entire time, air conditioner only went as low as 18°c so we were always hot, lizards in the room, the walk from the room to leave the resort was brutal (and this is coming from two 20 year olds). Overall would recommend staying in the Sairee beach area, more convenient location

Worst stay of our trip

Firstly, do not stay here if you are not fit and are wanting to leave the hotel to explore etc. The climb to the top of the hill is incredibly steep and there are safety concerns with makeshift wooden stairs and pipes and other trip hazards everywhere. The hotel has a golf cart which you can use for check in and check out only and the staff will carry your bags for you. I think the hotel should offer a service in between these times as it really was an uncomfortable walk to the top. We had a seafront hut which looked lovely from the outside and had an amazing view of the ocean. The inside was below basic. Air conditioning was poor, the bed and pillows were hard which made sleeping troublesome and we had ants and other insects freely roaming around. A gecko seemed to live within the roof of our hut and was very loud, also not helping the sleeping situation. The hut didn’t seem very secure and we had trouble locking our door. There are several relaxation areas around the resort which have cosy chairs and amazing views of the scenery. The pool area was fine and was a nice place to relax for a while. The pool water was not as clean as it could be but it’s a sea water pool. Pool bar menu was okay, but they should add more vegetarian options and the staff didn’t understand what vegetarian was. Terrible WiFi everywhere. Overall, the worst two night stay of our holiday. Had we not been on a budget I would have left to stay elsewhere. The whole place is tired and needs an overhaul.

Wir haben das Hotel wegen seiner tollen Lage zum Meer hin gebucht. Einzigartige Aussicht aus dem Bungalow, Restaurant und Frühstücksareal...EIN TRAUM!!! Das war es dann leider auch.... Die Anlage ist sehr runter gekommen, Pflege und Wartungsarbeiten sind dringend notwendig. Am fehlenden Personal kann es nicht liegen, es waren über den gesamten Zeitraum kaum mehr als fünf (5) Gäste gleichzeitig in der Anlage. Jede Betonstufe (davon gibt ein paar hundert) ist einzigartig :-) Die Holztreppen verrotten- bin selbst einmal eingebrochen! Nägel stehen heraus, Geländer sind lose!! In den Bungalows tropft es vom Dach her auf die Zwischendecke, diese schimmelt! Meine Matratze glich einseitig mehr einer Hängematte. Preise für die Zimmer völlig überfordert, Getränke und Essenspreise am oberen Ende der Preisskala auf der Insel...selbst für deutsche Verhältnisse ist die kleine Dose Bier mit 3 EURO!!! aus der Minibar überteuert. Frühstück ist sehr Ideen los und einseitig. Zur Auswahl steht Omelett, Rührei oder Spiegelei...eine Reissuppe (als Geschacksträger diehnt Pfeffer !!) ENDE... Am fünften Tag fragt uns tatsächlich der Kellner...warum wir immer das selbe essen...? Diese THAIS muss man einfach lieben!! Fazit: Für zwei, drei Nächte mag es okay sein...länger ist eine Zumutung. Ein Scooter ist dringend notwendig, die Tipps der Dame an der Rezeption zwecks Vermietung dieser Gefährte waren sehr gut! Auf Koh Tao ist sehr viel von Abzocke die Rede, Taxipreise sind unglaublich teuer...Mafia!

Pleasant stay

overall nice stay, and good experience. Free pick up and drop off from pier which was great! stayed here for 6 nights in a sea view hut the view was amazing. At first they gave us a garden view but absolutely no issue changing it! We read reviews about the steps and thought ‘we’re young and fit we will be fine’ but was a struggle in day heat. Feeling much fitter after stayer here though. Room was basic but okay, expect creepy crawleys your in a hut on an island! You’ll need a moped to explore island if not about 15minute walk to sairee beach.

The resort has an amazing position that offers breathtaking views on the sea! The small huts are comfy and cozy and the staff is very kind and helpful! Of course it is suitable for people who are willing to climb few steps up and down, but it is totally worth it! You will need to rent a motorbike to reach the centre of Saitree, just few minutes away. Only thing I would suggest to improve is the facilities maintenance: the resort is beautiful, however you can see the sign of time on it and also there is a bit of trash in the nature that should be removed. Breakfast is ok, quite simple compared to the price. Overall very much recommended!!!

Perfect view and helpful staff

I stay in hillside for 2 nights during Feb , we got room just located above swimming pool with perfect view overlooking the hotel pier . U can go to nang yuan island from hotels pier (about 5min ) by long tail boat , just need to book from hotel reception . Hotel provide facilities which is very reasonable price compare to others : kayaking tb200 , mask tb200 full day. There’s a small private beach area ,and you can snorkelling, the water is very clear . Hotel peacefully located uphill and Tony can assist you on renting a scooter to travelling around . there’s lot stairs you need to walk to your room but no complain because u can get perfect sea view , room is clean , the water pressure is abit low but acceptable , sunset perfect view when you dining at seashore restaurant! Special thanks to receptionist (Tony) for all the helpful information and suggestion . Thanks Koh Tao hillside for the perfect moment in Koh Tao !

만족합니다

리조트에서 수영하고 쉬고 조용히 시간 즐기기에 아주 좋습니다. 돌아다니는 것 싫어하면서 조용히 지내시는걸 좋아하는 분들에게 강추입니다. 뷰가 아주 좋아서 그냥 베란다에 앉아서 시간 보내기 좋고, 바다 수용도 바로 내려가면 깨끗한 바다로 바로 연결 됩니다. 단 물이 깊으니 수영못하시면 구명조끼를 입고 수영하시고, 리조트 앞바다에서 스노클도 가능합니다. 수영장과 쉬는 곳이 있어서 안에서 즐기기 참 좋습니다. 단 시내에서는 조금 거리가 있으니 밖에 나가서 로컬 음식을 먹으려면 오토바이를 빌려서 다니셔야 합니다. 참 리조트에서 낭유안이 가까우니 카약으로 다녀오기도 좋습니다.

Hillside в целом неплохо

Жили в номере Делюкс с отличным видом на море. Впечатления от отеля средние, физически устарел, но когда-то был неплох. Еда дорогая и невкусная. Ресторан посетили один раз по приезду и больше в него не ходили. В номерах чисто, горячая вода, кондиционер, фен, туалетные принадлежности-все есть. Гольф-кары ездят нерегулярно, много ходили по горам пешком. Но это не вызывало особых проблем и для здоровья полезно. В целом, все неплохо, но дороговато для уровня отеля, особенно, если учесть, что он расположен уединенно в далёкие от цивилизации.
