Koh Tao Cabana Resort

We absolutely loved this resort. We stayed 7 nights. The staff are excellent. The restaurant staff in particular always went out of their way to be playful a with the kids and helpful to us. We enjoyed the free yoga classes. Vicky saw that my daughter was not interested in yoga and played with her nearby (frisbee, soccer). It was above and beyond. The beach is lovely. The pool is great. Rooms are big and clean and the AC works well. Note that this resort is nestled into a hill so you do need to be able to walk on uneven surfaces and up steps without railing. Easy for kids but tricky for individuals with significant mobility concerns.

Friendly staff made sure we were comfortable, they were patient and assisted us with requests! Oceanview cottage had an incredible view and was wonderfully designed:) The resort grounds itself has tons of beautiful green vegetation, bugs as well but they provide free bug spray at rooms and the restaurant. The snorkeling in the ocean right next to the resort was amazing! The resort also provides free snorkel masks and fins. The visibility was excellent the entire week we visited and we saw a diversity of corals and hundreds of fish. We only took one day snorkel tour around Koh Tao to the popular snorkel spots and it was comparable. It can be accessed directly from the beach but it is a bit far and there is also a snorkel platform in the resort so you can enter the ocean directly closer to the corals.

Beautiful property - just keep in mind that there are quite a few stairs. The restaurant, however, is delicious and offers great value for money. The beach is truly stunning: soft sandy shore, amazing sunbeds (though they get taken quickly), and a unique stay in the treehouse villas that makes you feel like you’re in the jungle. There are also some fantastic viewpoints around the property that offer breathtaking views- definitely worth checking out! Free yoga sessions are offered right on the beach, no registration needed. With so much nature around, you shouldn’t be afraid of a few ants in the room or geckos in the bathroom- it’s all part of the experience. A special shoutout to Vicki, whose warm and friendly personality really made us smile!
