The Paradise Koh Yao Boutique Beach Resort & Spa - κο γιάο νόι

It's a beautiful place for anyone who wants to run away from it ALL. It's quite a challenge to get there, a flight, a boat ride and truck ride on a dirt road. But minus the hassle it's a beautiful place surrounded by nature.

My wife, 7yo son and I recently stayed for 3 nights. The impression I received was quite mixed, and I will try to be accurate and fair. Facility: rooms in so so shape. All the floor tiles were cracked and displaced, bathroom is open to outdoors (charming, but not ideal for comfort), room quite cramped and badly laid out. Cannot watch tv from bed or […] sofa. Dining : excellent food, very good service Location : in a SWAMP. I emailed them a few days prior to arrival to request info on how to reach them, and to ask for a cot for my son. No reply - and no cot. The concierge at our previous hotel called and got transfer info. After the typically extortionate Phuket airport carfare of 500B, you ride a longtsil boat about 1 hour, then pay 800B for a songtaew ride of 35 minutes through the jungle, on deeply rutted mud roads. Quite miserable, and very long. I can see why they're coy about that on their web page, but it is bad faith on their part. Being in a swamp means rampant mosquitoes, and we found 2 varieties of ferocious ants at the beach, which bite painfully and are very hard to remove. The water had stinging jellyfish, and was always murky. Except for high tide +\- 2 hours, the water recedes so far out that you get a vast vista of mud. Can't really get to the water without a lot of unpleasantness. I tried. I wish I had followed my gut and left the morning after arriving, but we tried to be good sports about it. Then we found the snakes. 2 of them. In our shower, one about 4 feet up the wall. I'm no expert, but having diamond shaped heads wider than their bodies, I believe they were venomous, although I have no reason to believe they were deadly. One near black, the other reddish brown, finger thickness, about 2-3 feet long. I do have to commend msnagement's response. When I told them I was leaving 1st thing in the morning, they agreed not only to refund the unused but paid for nights, they also kindly comped us their speedboat back to Phuket. We were offered another roo Διαβάστε περισσότερα

I stayed at the hotel for three nights and it was a very pleasant stay. It is definitely worth seeing. However, be aware of two things: 1) The Jacuzzi suite is a waste of money. The "jacuzzi" was totally pointless and not very nice! 2) There are no shops or restaurants nearby, so the hotel is your only option for food which is seen in their prices! In […] general, the island is a must-see as you can experience the real Thailand contrary to what you see in Phuket! Διαβάστε περισσότερα

3 nights with my wife and 3.5 year old. We really wish we could have stayed longer - 4-5 nights would be perfect. Nothing I had seen or read did the place justice, it was a lovely hotel on it's own beach with a really friendly atmosphere. We absolutely loved it. Not much to do for older children. Food was really excellent, but the service was slow. We […] will be going back. Διαβάστε περισσότερα

One of the best hotels we stayed in during a 2 week trip to Thailand. It was SO relaxing and beautiful. Make sure you take a boat in to the resort from the pier, we took the road and it's a pretty rough ride. Looking forward to going back sometime in the near future. Will recommended to all my friends. Also, the spa is amazing!!

The resort is well off the beaten track - accessible down 6km of dirt track, or by boat. Once there, the opportunities to go on boat trips out are great - free 30 minute trip to beach and free 20 minute trip to public pier where scooters or taxis may be hired. Really relaxing place. A must do trip is with Bao to the islands of Phang Nga bay with kayaks […] - do when low tide is early in the morning to see the monkeys finding oysters in the mud before the tourist boats come from Phuket - then the scenery and other islands - brilliant.

Très bon séjour dans cet hôtel ; le personnel y est sympathique , à votre disposition sans être intrusif - Les chambres sont belles , décorées avec goût et tout est fait pour passer quelques jours de complet repos.

Allt var toppen,boende,mat mm.men badvattnet var ej så rent .det var inget turkos vatten .

Un super endroit loin de toute civilisation un havre de paix perdu au milieul de la jungle mais au bord de l'eau avec une plage magnifique ...

Dette stedet er enda finere i virkeligheten enn på bilder. Fantastisk beligenhet, nydelige rom, super mat, hyggelig personal, fint spa og bra yoga for de som liker det. Romantisk og avslappende sted!
