About the hotel:
nice romantic bugalows, beautiful view on the little cute private beach. private only because of situated at the other end of koh tao. thats also why they can make high prices for food and beverage. you have to go there by taxi, the road is not concret and very dangerous to drive, so you cannot rent a motorbike to go there on your own. for relaxing at the rsort its good, for getting around on koh tao its bad.

About the hotel:
Though located perfectly on Laem Thien pinnacle with splendid sunrise views and opportunities for rock climbing and snorkeling, this place is a real disappointment merely due to the management. They constantly have problems with water supplies and electricity (even in those few hours when it is supposed to be available). During our stay every second day was without water and the staff did not care for that at all saying it is fault of the clients who forgot to close the tap. The food is very expensive and the kitchen is a real mess. But if you try to supply food for yourself at the Sairee village, the manager Ping Pong would be pissed off. Actually, her priority is the well-being of her staff than the clients interests. They do not care for the environment, either. The clients clean the beach, not the staff. The rocks around the main building are littered. the only chance to save this unique place is to have the real professional manager, not just some PingPong. The concept of this isolated place with the bungalows right in the middle of the jungle is very exciting and it can be put into reality with just a little effort and responsibility. good luck.

About the hotel:
We book this place from the nice pictures on the website. After arriving from the boat the taxi drivers not amused to bring us to Laem Thian Resort. So, waiting 1.5 hour for the free pick-up service. The trip from the main pier to the resort is horrible. The road the the resort is in so so so bad condition. You can not imagine. The bad road make you can not move at all the time you stay here. Or you have to pay 100 thb one way/person to make the horror 30 minute 1.5 km trip to the main land. The wooden bungalows are very very basic. No electricity from 6.30-18.00. No chair, no blanket, no hot shower even no soap. Only a lot of mosquito s even if using the net. The food and excursions in this resort are expensive. But you have no choice, you can not move. The only positive thing is the beautiful and quite area and nature around the resort and the very beautiful bay. The price look like cheap. But the food excursions and the expensive taxi-service to the main land make you spend a lot of money here. This place not worth!!
About the reservation service:

About the hotel:
The hotelstandard was low, but you get what you pay for, so it was very cheap. Nice snorkling. Good cooking, nice staff. Very bad road to the hotel - don´t rent a bike - it could kill you! The first transport to the hotel was a bit scary - sitting back on the van trying not to be throwed of the car made your heart beat faster. But you get used to it, so the next time it felt better.
About the reservation service:
Very good.

Hotel pictures and facilities
The bay itself offers excellent snorkeling and in the back on can spent
hours of trekking in the lush jungle.
Being treated as a friend
rather than a customer will make you wish to come back. This is the
right place for nature lovers and people who care for their peace of
mind. However should you get bored at all you can always join the lively
owners on a night-trip to their chilled out Sala Bar "Ping Pong" in
Sairee and mingle for a while with the party crowd.
