Staff were very friendly and helpful especially in the restaurant. The swimming pool is too small for the size of the hotel especially when people from outside use it, there are signs saying for hotel guests only but it is not checked. Breakfast was good and restaurant food was good but a bit pricey. The hotel is sandwiched between 2 music / youngsters bars so if your looking for peace and quiet look elsewhere away from Sairee Beach

Amazing hotel

We stayed for 7 nights – our second time at this hotel.
Lovely place in a central location, with friendly and helpful front desk staff.
Delicious breakfast.
The rooms are really beautiful (we stayed in a garden villa).
The pool is gorgeous – right by the sea.
There’s plenty to do in the area in the evening.

Basically a summer camp hostel

Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this property. The room I reserved was not as pictured - instead, I was placed in the unrenovated section of the property, which they had advertised with photos from the newly renovated side of the property. There were no usable wall outlets, the room had red ants all over the wall and floor, and there were mosquitoes. I extended quite a bit of patience and understanding, recognizing that it’s an island and so insects are going to be part of the situation as was the power going in and out throughout the evenings, but it did not lend itself to any sort of vacation vibes. The room was very shabby and made me feel like I was essentially at a Cabin in summer camp. When I brought the situation to the front desk attention, they were fairly kind about it and I was able to get the same room in the renovated side of the property that did in fact look like some of the photos I saw online. Also, the morning breakfast was a terrible way to start the day. Arriving two minutes before the 730 opening time I was scolded by the resort staff for arriving early and being in their way. I was just trying to make sure I was there when they opened at 7:30 on the dot so I could grab something before heading out for a full day of scuba. Overall, unless you’re able to get 100% guarantee that you will be in one of the newly renovated rooms I’d say skip this place.

Upgrade the room type

The location is fantastic, beach front at Sairee and has a swimming pool. This is what you are paying for. You definitely want to stay in Sairee part of the island as all the evening activities are up this way and short walk and get a moped for all the viewpoints and other beaches you can see in the day.

We stayed in the cheaper ‘triple room’ which was very basic. The room was disappointing and didn’t meet my expectations for money spent, seems all the marketing for this hotel is based upon the swimming pool, and the expensive rooms.

The Triple was a very small room, a double bed and a single bed with an en suite. The bathroom was grotty, there was no hangers or shelves to unpack any clothes and 1 small mirror and only 1 plug socket. If you forget to put the ‘clean me’ card out, they won’t refresh the room, we found out the hard way

Have to say I did have envy looking at all other room types in the complex as they looked very luxurious. We wish we paid more for one of them.

We had some fantastic food at the hotel restaurant in the evening that we had to pay for but the breakfast was included but fairly poor compared to the standard of breakfast you can get out in Koh Tao

Good position

Stay was alright for the price. We stayed in the new building which was well maintained. Bed was rock hard and shower was awful - would go from freezing to boiling constantly without ever settling on a temperature. No hand soap provided by the sink which was weird. Not enough sunbeds by the pool but I think it’s a lot of rooms for a small pool / beach section. Breakfast included but didn’t look great - you can order off the menu for additional cost which looked a lot better. Staff were all friendly and prices of food & drink were really good. Great spot for the sunset! Overall I would stay again but I think some improvement to mattress quality would be good.

I stayed in the villa and against the advertised pictures on the website the room was a little dated with signs of wear.

The staff were excellent and friendly as they have been anywhere i've stayed in Thailand.

The location was fantastic in relation to the beach and local town but expect noise from the entertainment areas located along the beach, fortunately the policy in the area is to reduce the noise levels from the speakers before it gets to late.

Breakfast was ok but nothing fantastic but the food menu for evening meals and the food its self were good and the pool area although a little small was beautiful.

Besides the villa being dated I would recommend staying here if you want to be close to the nightlife

Awesome location on Sairee Beach. About a 10-15 walk to the popular bars at the other end of the beach. There is a very loud bar right next door that plays house music all through the night, but we were able to switch villas to the other side and it wasn't a problem at all. The villas feel so luxurious and they are cleaned well. They can take a while to cool down with the two stories. The bed was comfortable. The outdoor space on the beach is really nice and they serve strong cocktails. The breakfast buffet is very average- better to scooter 5 minutes down the road to Factory Cafe! We would stay here again.

Great location!

The staff was very friendly upon arrival--my girlfriend and I took the night boat from the mainland and arrived very early in the morning. The hotel graciously allowed us to check in a few hours early, thankfully!

Most of the rooms were pretty nice--we selected a Deluxe room, which was closer to the beach/pool. It looks like the hotel might be transitioning some as there were some newer looking rooms closer to the road (not a great view). Breakfast was nice (buffet) but not included. The location was great, however, and easy to rent a motorbike or walk along the beach/footpath that serves as a main walking area.

Overall, we were happy with our stay!

great Service/location, room is a little iffy

This place is in a great area, it’s located on Sairee Beach (main beach on Koh Tao). If you’re a light sleeper (as I am), it might not be the best option as you can occasionally hear the bumping music until 12am. Good breakfast buffet with many options, great service, the staff are very helpful, even has a “concierge” office right next to reception for all your needs. Restaurant has good Thai food and amazing view for sunset. We stayed in the Pool Villa room - would’ve been amazing, except for the nicest room, the two front doors have a crack in between them so mosquitos, ants, etc tend to get in much easier. As for the cheaper rooms, we noticed they didn’t have any cracks in between their doors.... For the nicest room, we expected a little bit better but alas, it was a great stay and would recommend (maybe not the Pool Villa though :P)

All the Basics

Staff are unreal nice, rooms are decent for the price, location is nice for walking distance to nightlife and on the beach, hotel is a bit noisy depending what room you have, right at the end of an air strip so constant air traffic coming and going which is loud, food and drinks are too expensive and not that good.

Would probably stay again if I wanted to party and blow some money, although personally not a fan of Samui.

Lovely resort, a little noisy with the mopeds.

Overall a very good experience, staff were friendly and helpful.

Excellent location near to some really nice beach bars that you can sit out on and watch the sunset.. the resort is literally on th beach so the restaurant is a lovely place to have breakfast and sit watching the ocean.

WiFi is the best I’ve had in Thailand, and the pet birds that wish you “good morning” in a verity of languages are lovely touch.

I stayed in a budget room and the standard was as expected for the price.. there are more expensive options that looked quite nice.

My only criticism is that there is that the main road in and out of the resort runs in front of the rooms and can get quite noisy with staff and users of the dive shop coming and going on their mopeds. Although I have to say this looked like the norm for resorts in the area due to their layout..

The pick up and drop off at the pier at the beginning and end of your stay is a nice touch too.. (for free) not all resorts offer this..

We arrived at Sairee Hut knowing that there were construction works, as clearly stated on the website, but considering the location the hotel offers a fantastic price to accommodate for this! They started fairly early in the morning but this generally wasn’t an issue. The staff were very friendly, and we loved the birds who were saying ‘hello,’ ‘sawasdeekha’ and ‘I love you!’ The rooms were clean, umbrellas were provided, the beds and pillows were comfy and there were plenty of plug sockets! The biggest plus is the location, right on the beach so you can eat your breakfast looking over the ocean and also very close to koh Tao nightlife. You can tell it will be a really fantastic place to stay when it is all fully renovated! Would love to come back and see sairee hut when it’s finished!

Great location, average room

The most important thing for us was the location, which was great: right next to all the best beach bars and in the fun part of town. The resort had a pretty nice pool, but not a whole lot of space on the beach (we just walked down the beach to use a different resort's beachfront). The quality of rooms seemed to largely depend on which type of room you pay for. There are some newer villa-style rooms that looked absolutely incredible. We stayed in an aircon double, and it was pretty basic. It smelled a lot like cigarette smoke, and we never got our room serviced/towels replaced--just a roll of toilet paper placed on our front step every morning. Location is worth it, but quality of resort is on par with a basic backpackers accommodation. Staff weren't overly friendly, but it was hard to tell whether or not this was just a language barrier--they did help us print out a few things, which was very nice.

Decent hotel, centrally located in Sairee

Stayed at the older cabins away from the beach. Rooms are a bit worn down, with bathtubs in both rooms I stayed in having darks rings from use, at the bottom.

The safe in one of the rooms was not connected and so it was useless.

Hotel was ok but overpriced but then most hotels on Koh Tao are.

Staff was nice and helpful. Hotel has a free taxi service to and from the pier and free refill of complimentary bottled water every day is a plus. Free wifi worked flawlessly.

Sewer gases come out of the drain on the bathroom floor, as well as the bathroom sink, making the foams smell awful. Other than that the rooms were ok. But there was a ton of mosquitoes swarming around the door just waiting to get in.

Koh Tao was the final destination in my Thailand adventure. I was so happy I finished it here. I upgraded to the deluxe rooms to the pool.

The staff was so nice and helpful. They always greeted us with a smile. The beach scene here is AMAZING. Some of the best fire shows I've seen in all of Thailand. Would definitely recommend this place, if you're going to upgrade to the newer rooms.

Great location and good place for few nights

My girlfriend and I stayed here for three nights. The highlight about this hotel is the amazing location. We loved the sairee beach area as there was always something to do whether you just want to lay out on the beach, sun tan by the nice pool or in the evening take a stroll along the path to check out the various stores, bars, restaurants, etc. The hotel staff is courteous and helpful with any tourist related questions. As for the room itself, we recieved a room with two beds as they did not have any available rooms with one king size unless we were willing to upgrade to one of their more luxurious rooms which we regrettfully didn't get to experience. Our room was clean and a decent size for two. The only negative was that the washroom could use some modern maintenance work. Although it was a bigger than normal washroom, the bathtub needed more work. It kept moving and shaking when trying to take a shower as they seemed to have attempted to replace the old tub with a newer version by simply placing it on top of one another. Very odd.
Breakfast was included. Overall it is a good place to stay due to it's great location. If you don't mind spending more $$ I would suggest checking out one of their superior rooms that have their own mini pool and look great from the outside. 3.5 out of 10

You get gross rooms instead - grimy, holes in sheets, disgusting/smelly bathroom. Some trees were cut down during our stay, blocking our entrance, and stayed there for over 24 hours - seriously?! Breakfast included is nice, but the food is gross so you won't want to eat it anyhow. Only pluses: location on beach and VERY close to bustling main road (the massage place at the end of the driveway is fantastic, and the green curry next door to that is the best I've had in my life), and front desk staff were lovely. Otherwise, felt a bit ripped off and we only paid equivalent AUD$60/night...

Three day visit to Ko Tao

The hotel overall was very good in terms of location and facilities. The pool was great and the restaurant on the beach too. Close to many bars and shops. Only downside was that we were in hut 14 which is opposite some kind of work shop/lodgings and we were woken up at 9am each day by some guys chainsawing bits of wood into small pieces. Any chance of a peaceful lying was impossible. Also the service at the bar was slow at the best of times.

Ask for a room in the renovated section...

We arrived to this resort with high hopes from the pictures on the website, big mistake. In actuality you're most likely going to be staying in a hut on the older side of the resort. That being said, it was fine. It's old yes, but clean and has both air conditioning and a rotating fan to circulate the air. The bathroom was dated, but did the trick with no bugs to be seen in room. The pool at the resort is wonderful. It overlooks the beach and is in a prime location! If you walk the opposite way to the street there is PLENTY of really good restaurants to eat at... One in particular stood out, a Italian spot with modern decor... If only I could remember the name. Anyway on with the hotel review, the breakfast was ok. The staff aren't the friendliest, but weren't rude either. I would stay again. I would also suggest the dive business on the resort. We did one day of 'fun diving' and it was worth it.

Good location

Koh Tao was one of our favourite islands in Thailand. The hotel was right on the beach but close enough to town to walk to the restaurants etc. Sairee Beach is a great area of Koh Tao, nice walkways through the restaurant & shopping areas. Great for renting scooters & exploring the rest of the island. The beach in front of the hotel was ideal for swimming. The restaurants were excellent & the beer cheap! A must is renting a long tail boat for going to Koh Nangyuan where the water is crystal clear & the sand on the beach is white.

Good hotel, nice location, very relaxing!

Hotel was good, would stay again. As everything has a few downsides; as per usual in Thailand the wifi was sporadic. Our room
Was closest to the road which was unfortunate but still not too loud since koh Tao is pretty quiet! But the location of the hotel was perfect

O.K. but a little disappointing

PROS: very good location right in the centre of everything, staff were friendly and helpful, price was good, room was modern.
CONS: room not clean mostly linen, yellow bed sheets, some with old stains, yellowish towels. Breakfast was very ordinary and although breakfast was included we actually went outside to have breakfast at nearby restaurants.

Make sure you book the duplex suites

Gorgeous modern & spacious with roof terrace & large flat screen tv.

Ended up staying extra nights as we loved the room so much (had previously Stayed in average accommodation all over Thailand)

Breakfast was always nice hot & fresh could have more facilities for toast though

Mango daiquiris are the best on koh Tao

Not quite what we expected but still good

We stayed here and loved the location. Half of the resort is very modern while the other half is probably 20 years old. We stayed in one of the oldest most run down rooms, but the air con worked great, the beds were decent and the location was not to be beat. The breakfast is pretty good as well. Just keep in mind that the pictures you will see online are from the more modern villa's and hotel rooms, the standard bungalows and rooms are a bit more rustic

Beautiful hotel on the beach

Hotel has a great location, right on the beach in the best part of the island at Sairee beach. There are 3 concerns I had about the hotel though... 1) It is very close to a club on the beach and the club music was very loud until 4am. 2) The wifi was not working in my room, I had to go closer to the lobby. 3) The checkout time is 10am, much earlier than I am accustomed to.

Good location right on the main beach with a fantastic swimming pool. Nice clean rooms, well maintained but overpriced. Staff unhelpful. Free buffet breakfast was very bad. Overall it's ok but better places on offer for the same price.

Family Trip

We had triple room here. The resort(hardly...) is a mix of old and new buildings. Service is below expectation(even in Thailand) and the beach is not great... The breakfast is the one of the worst we experienced in Thailand. There are lots of mosquitos around but the A/C worked good which is a great thing! The room was not moldy, and I was able to breathe. Do get them to pick you up at the pier free of charge. Taxis are expensive here.

Sairee Dive Huts - My Best Memories of Thailand

Wow! Wow! Wow! I fell in love with Thailand, and it all happened at Sairee Dive Huts. Enchanting resort with accomodations in several price ranges. Our suite was in the new area and was outstanding.

The owners are great people who care about their guests. The food is excellent and we seldom ate elsewhere. Why bother when the view, the service and the food are that good.

I shall return!

Fantastic holiday

Great place to stay. We've spent two weeks in sairee hut resort. Location and staff are amazing. Great pool and beach but divers using pool as well which was a bit annoying. Bathroom in superior room needs update, if you're looking for luxury book pool villa. Hotel is right on the beach, easy access to night life, shopping, restaurants. Excellent beach massage next door only 300bahts. Hotel makes fantastic breakfast, yummy fruit shakes only 60 bahts and we loved our lunch on the beach with chicken sandwiches and singha beer. Over all we loved this hotel, food drinks and quiet location is superb. We would definitely come back again.
