Aiya Resort Koh-Tao

Loved the clean pool and the new bean bags and friendly staff.

Everything was perfect with this hotel!

The property was in a great location. It was within walking distance of Sairee beach but was not in the main area so was not noisy. The receptionist was really kind and helpful. You can also hire scooters from here.

It was slightly more expensive than other areas in Thailand but all seemed to be like that.

The pool was great, really clean and large. They provided beach towels. Water filter provided. Receptionist very nice. Free pickup from pier (but you have to pay for way back…)

Zero sound proofing so can be loud when there are jungle parties etc. Rooms very basic, expensive for what you get so bad value for money to be honest. Bathrooms not good, window that we couldn’t open and no extractor fan. We got our room cleaned once and it didn’t feel very clean afterwards so didn’t get it cleaned again. Location about 10 mins from restaurants and extra 5 mins to beach. Could really do with some sun loungers by the pool rather than four bean bags. Overall, the exterior of the hotel is very nice and they have put effort into making it look nice from the outside, but neglected the rooms.
