Vanessa stayed at Koh Tao Resort on 06/20/2006 and said,  "The Koh Tao Resort is located in a beautiful bay, with an excellent view, but in this season not really good either for swimming, nor for snorkeling.I spent there only two nights, so maybe I was just unlucky with the weather. The beach was quite dirty too, lots of garbage, but I don t know if it was just the effect of a little storm on the previous day... The structure of the hotel is really nice: the hall is nice, the restaurant also. The only problem is that it seems to be left on its own: just an example: I sat for dinner on a table with a dirty table cloth: they served my dinner without changing it! And this happened with everything!! Execpt from the garden (unbelievably cared of). I booked a normal room. the rooms have doors that connect them and the walls are quite thin. So, if you are in a central one, you ll hear perfectly what your neibourghs are doing. but I think this doesn t happen in the de luxe room. I saw beautiful bungalows closer to the beach, in brand new building. The restaurant was quite good. Also the breakfast was good, a rich buffet. Try the pancakes, mind the ants close to the fresh fruit."

Steven stayed at Koh Tao Resort on 05/10/2006 and said,  "Chalok Ban Kao is a beautiful bay but is too shallow for swimming and the coral starts before it gets to 1m deep. Ko Tao Resort is the nicest hotel on the beach with a nice pool and grounds. Its a pity there s a tacky Welcome light hung over the pool to spoil the view. We had a deluxe room which has 1 double and 1 single bed. Dont make my mistake and order the extra bed which costs 500 TBH here. The rooms were partitioned units with interconnecting doors & thin walls between them so you could frequently hear & smell your neighbours! We did have a/c, fridge, TV & electric shower but the room size was a bit small & not good value for the money I thought. The resort has a dive school & boat but you dont have to dive to stay here (I dived with Bans on Sai Ri). However, if you intend to take a course, you can get a 20% room discount if you book direct with the hotel (http://www.kohtaoresort.com). Restaurant is OK but nothing special & in the evening there s a cover band which is a bit cheesy. Best food we had was at the Bigfish next door. Breakfast buffet was OK but a bit limited & samey. Some of the staff were not very friendly or helpful. On the whole, average but not great."

Shen stayed at Koh Tao Resort on 05/10/2006 and said,  "Hotel is beautiful. But too many flies and mosquitos. Very simple breakfast. Kind of expensive compare to it s condition."

Melanie stayed at Koh Tao Resort on 03/08/2006 and said,  "Hotel reception very dated but this is a lovely family run hotel with a small pool but beautiful view and beach. Definitely worth the money. We booked a basic room which was also a bit dated, but it didn t matter really as the weather was great, the pool area was nice and relaxing and the view of the sea from the restaurant was idyllic. Definitely have a banana and coconut shake!! "
