Mango Bay Grand Resort

Claire said, "Absolutely gorgeous!! We a dvd player and it was amazing. Such a fantastic size and the view was out of this world - just us and the sea! The room was much bigger than just the fan rooms so would highly recommend it. The people are really friendly and so relaxed - we spent most of our evenings playing cards in the restaurant. The sea is amazing!"

MAURO said, "Hotel magnifico per rilassarsi dopo lo stress del lavoro, personale ottimo camere pulite, si stà bene anche i Fun Bongaloow (senza aria condizionata).Unico problema.....non c è la possibilità di muoversi autonomamente perchè l hotel è raggiungibile soltanto con la barca.Si mangia al ristorante dell albergo ed i prezzi sono ragionevoli"

Karine said, "Que du bonheur ! Un site magnifique, une trés bonne table et une équipe adorable.Trés loin du village, à déconseiller aux accros des bars de nuit... mais idéal pour les amateurs de snorkeling.Pour nous, de loin le meilleur spot de l île !!!"

Thomas said, "The bungalows are small but very nice and a beautiful view. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location of the resort is wonderful. It is quiet and peaceful. You will reach the resort only by boat (twice a day). There is no network for a mobile. This place is perfect for people, who will have a quiet and recreative holiday."

claudia said, "I would highly recommend the bungalows. The service was in general very good and helpful, the massage person did a great job on my swollen ankles and the place is absolutely spectacular both in terms of the view and the snorkeling. There is a great variety of fish in a calm environment disrupted by occasional boats. The food was also very good. The only inconvenient is the language in order to organize the pick up service from Ko Tao to get to the resort."

Grant said, "What a great place, I was very lucky and fortunate to find this place with the help of sawadee! The moment you arrive you know that it will be the right choice to relax, swim , snorkle etc. Mango bay is away from the hustle and bustle which is great if your into that, as I was. The villas where great, private and well looked after, you will need to know that to get to your room, there are a number of steps to get there as the resort is built into a hill of rocks. I normally go for a walk after dinner, you dont have to do this just walk back to your room? The restaurant was great, built overlooking the ocean great place to relax and eat, and the food is great. The staff where great, very layed back and helpful the manager was great she would go out of her way to help you, if you go ask her to make you one of her drinks in the evening, fantastic you will get hooked. The prices are a little bit more than other places but in comparison to home it is still very cheap. When you arrive at the pier you will be greeted by lovely staff and taken to the resort by long boat only 15 mins away, have your camera ready as this is the time you get to use it properly. As you can see I did like the place and will be back next year. Thanks Mango Bay for a great time."

Helen said, "Nice staff. Food very good. Very calm. Silent at night! No internet or mobile connection"

marcelo said, "Facts: Location: Nice but a bit secluded. You need to go by boat and is 30 - 40 minutes and a 100 bht every time if you want to go to the main area where restaurants and everything is. Problems: One night they arranged to pick us up at the peer , but because the waves were too roug,h we had to return by car and it was a crazy road and they charged us extra when they never mentioned this could ever happen. Service: Good."

F said, "The place itself is very beautiful and paceful; I recommend to check before which bungalow is available: the ones on top are not good at all (you don t even have seaview because of the trees!!). The owner is an Italian, but honestly in thailand i prefer the thai style."

Bill said, "Great location and friendly staff. Good snorkelling at your doorstep and a good place to clill out . Would recommend to my friends."

Alex said, "Absolutely GORGEOUS!!!! The villas are perched right on the rocks over looking the bay and are stunning. The snorkelling right off the jetty is greatand across the bay (a quick kayak paddle away) its even better. Food was good (a bit expensive though) and the restraunt has the most amazing view. If all you want to do is lie back and relax then this is the place for you."

Anthony said, "This was an ideal site for a relaxing and quiet holiday in a spectacular and idyllic seting. It is at least as good as it looks in the pictures! Accommodation, food and service were all excellent, and everyone was most pleasant and helpful. The coral and fish were stunning with just a snorkel and mask. Trips to hearby Koh Nan Yuan and the town by boat are easily arranged. If you contact the resort beforehand (NB!), you can get a long-tail boat to collect you from the ferry."

Corena said, "Mango Bay Grand Resort made for a fantastic stay on Koh Tao. It is a small resort that caters well for travellers who don t like crowds. The location is nothing short of spectacular and the bay offers beautiful deep water snorkelling and diving around the coral reefs! The beach is very small and can only be accessed from the resort by swimming/kayaking (approx 200m), however the manager is planning on expanding closer to the beach in the future. The restaurant offers very good Thai food and fresh seafood, as well as a range of western dishes. The staff are very friendly and speak good english. The rooms were very clean and comfortable by western standards. There are only two small resorts in this bay and they can only be accessed by boat. Therefore, it can feel a little isolated, which is great if this is the type of holiday you are hoping for (although we did stay there in low season...so it was quite quiet everywhere). However, they do provide cheap boat rides back to the main town regularly. Note, they do not have ATM or visa card services at the resort. We would definately stay there again! Thanks for a great holiday!"

Jahn said, "If you like a quiet place Mango Bay Resort is a very good choice. Bungalows are quite big with an exciting view. We will go there again. Don t expect too much service."

jon said, "Our fan bungalow was very nice with a great view of the bay. The resort can only be reached by boat and there is no beach. There is a great large decking with sun lounger so sun worshiper can enjoy their time there. The swimming was great. In the evening it is very relaxed, quiet, but during the day the bay is full of boat with divers or snorkellers - long tails are not the quietest of boat! The restaurant is good, but is the only one available, therefore I was glad that we only the owner who is italian were very helpful and friendly. Must stay there if you travel to Koh Tao."

Loren said, "Hotel is great, beautiful setting, good food(not too cheap). If you are planning to go pay the extra baht and get the airconditioned rooms. This is not because they are airconditioned(wich is nice) but because they are close to the lobby. Our bungalow was the cheap one and it was 164 very very steep steps to our room, this was a lot of hiking to get to our room each time. Beautiful setting, nice people, very peaceful, LOTS OF STEPS."

Karin said, "Das Resort liegt an einer schoenen Bucht zum Schnorcheln u. Tauchen, was vor allem auch andere Tauchschulen beanspruchen. Die Bungalows sind erst 2 Jahre alt, sehr nett gemacht, sauber, und haben alle einen wunderbaren Blick auf s Meer. Und die Garten/Hanglage ist wunderschoen angelegt. Man ist zwar von der Aussenwenlt fast abgeschnitten, aber es faehrt 2 Mal am Tag ein Wassertaxi nach Mae Haad. Eigentlich auch ideal fuer Honeymooners! Essen ist auch ganz gut."

Richard said, "My wife and I were impressed with resort, beautiful comfortable bungalows that blended in with nature setting and gorgeous view of bay from balcony, excellent staff, very friendly and helpful,great food & glad to be able to rent snorkelling gear & kayaks. Would definitely stay again!"

Chris said, "We had an excellent vacation at this very unique resort. You will need to line up arrangements with the hotel in advance to pick you up by water taxi once you arrive on the island. The resort is in a remote location that can only be reached by water taxi. There are steep stairs to get to the bungalows. The restaurant is OK. The food is cheap by US standards. Excellent snorkeling. Resort runs on a generator so electricity only from ~6 pm - 11 am."
