Elixir Koh Yao Yai

7 of us stayed at Elixir. We had an fabulous time. The resort was quiet, safe and very relaxing. We enjoyed massages, the restaurant and learning to ride scooters to explore the island. I would recommend Elixir to anyone wanting a relaxing Thai holiday, mostly untouched by tourists unlike other islands. All the staff were very accomodating, especially reception and food and beverage staff who assisted with my partners dietary restrictions.

A beautiful quiet beach front resort with great staff, restaurant and tiki bar!

Abgelegen mit wenig Restaurants und Bars rundherum.

War unser 2. Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel und bestimmt nicht unser letzter. Das Personal ist immer freundlich und gibt sein Bestes. Natürlich ist die Anlage bei genauerem Hinsehen in die Jahre gekommen und auch größtenteils renovierungsbedürftig, jedoch ist Lage und Service sowie „fast Alles“ für den Gast möglich machen und Organisieren (Transfer, Ausflüge) eine der besonderen Stärken dieses Hotel und seiner Mitarbeiter. Strand sehr schön, auch bei Ebbe. Wir haben uns immer wohlgefühlt, da man auch auf unsere Sonderwünsche eingegangen ist und auch der Erholungsfaktor ist hier optimal. Preis - Leistungsverhältnis stimmt auch.

Amazing as always. This was our third trip, and each time is better than the last. They have made nice upgrades during COVID, and the staff was incredibly warm and helpful. Such a peaceful and relaxing place. It's always quiet even when at capacity, and makes it feel like a private island. Loved the food, massages, rooms. Beach was cleared every morning and the water was perfect at high tide. Would always recommend.

This location is beautiful! It is quiet and relaxed. The food is great, and we had a great time! Would recommend.

A wonderful oasis of calm. Very welcoming staff nothing was too much trouble and delicious food both Thai and western were cooked to perfection The rooms were light and spacious and immaculately clean. And you are right on a private beach with no one trying to sell you anything I look forward to returning.

We booked a regular villa and as a surprise upon arrival, they just gave us a seafront pool villa. We stayed for four nights and enjoyed every minute of it. It was very calm, also you mostly had the whole beach to yourself. Just up the rod you can rent a scooter for around 250 baht per day and explore the island. There are monkeys living around the resort and the whole island is just way less touristy than for example Koh phi phi. The staff was really friendly, the food was very good and the place is just amazing.

Elixir is quite amazing! I feel so grateful to have stumbled upon such a gem of a place. It was so peaceful and serene! The beach was beautiful and spotless, the restaurant excellent and fairly priced, the staff helpful and kind. The outdoor shower was amazing and the rain showerhead actually had pressure!! The mattress in the room was too firm for my taste so I had trouble sleeping, and I found it uncomfortable to have to climb into the bed as it is on a raised floor. It looks romantic but wasn’t that practical. But that is the only thing I wasn’t a fan of - everything else was perfect! The island is primitive but the people are so beautiful and sweet! The resort is an oasis. If I ever come back I will splurge on a villa with a private pool - they looked amazing and private!

We've travelled a lot, and this is our favourite place. The room (beachfront private pool) is spacious, clean, beautifully decorated, and the pool and ocean view are incredible. Not to mention the lovely outdoor bathroom. Food and drinks at the resort restaurant are tasty and reasonably priced, the massage service is great, and staff are super friendly and helpful. They booked 2 tours for us during our stay, and they customised the tours per our request so they were exactly what we wanted. This was our second stay here (first time was 2015) and we will definitely be back again!
