Elixir Koh Yao Yai

Great place to stay, beech very good. Not a lot else around the hotel the north of the island is better for restaurants but can rent mopeds very cheaply and travel around the island. Great value for money! Room was lovely and nice to have a hut to yourself, staff are very helpful and food was very good. Only downside is it's a long way from the pier but local taxis are not too expensive.

The Stay was amazing and the location was out of the world..but the staff are untrained can't speak much English, had many time taking wrong orders. And also speak very loud, they also need to respect the guest. It is one of my best places I have visited with a breathtaking view..

Booked speedboat from Ao Nang. Only 30 mins but a world away. Thailand as it used to be. Very quiet, unspoilt island. Need motorbike to find a beer or anywhere else to eat. Lovely location in own bay. Beautiful fine sand and clear sea when tide in. Nice pool.plenty of sunbeds and shade under trees on beach or grass. Had deluxe villa (no 172) which was clean, comfortable, huge decked area with loungers and large outside bath and shower. A large tree did obscure view but shade was welcome. Request 175/6 if you want sea view. Staff were responsive to our requests and arranged our transport back after we decided to stay an extra day. Breakfast was ok, other meals quite good but drinks quite expensive. We took some with us. Would definately return for e few days of peace and escapism.

Staff were generally unhelpful. Hotel was beautiful but there were no activities and was so far from civilization. More of a honeymoon retreat for people who do not want to leave the hotel.

very disappointing

Great resort if u want to be alone and restful. Far from everything; as if you were on a deserted beach. Beach is nice but rocky. Thebeachfront villa is great for sunsets Staff at the restaurant is attentive and very friendly But it's long (and pricy) to get there though

Was very relaxing and great beach and grounds which were both kept clean by daily sweeping. Staff were nice and friendly always smiling. There were tours available directly from the hotel but we thought they were expensive compared to those we did in mainland Phuket. Also for those interested there is diving centre at the hotel where you can be picked up directly from the beach. Generally was a great place to relax and have meals and drinks at the outdoor restaurant by the beach. The huts were nice and clean and had a great open roof shower rooms where you can take your shower under the tall coconut trees, sun or stars, beautiful. Every night you get to see a beautiful sunset.

Very charming resort, we had a beach front pool villa, worth every penny, no need to ever leave ur room, they even have room service! Infortunately when we arrived our pool was very dirty, i told the front desk and they sent someone over right away, he clean half of the pool and left, i cleaned it thoroughly with a towel and the next day the water was crystal clear again... Be warned koh yoa yai is a very quiet island, almost nothing for tourists to do, no nightlife, the resort doesnt even have music. Its also a good idea to bring some of your own snacks and drinks as the resort can be pricey and there is no other options for restaurants.

Nice hotel. Super beach. Beach towels and beach bag provided for guests. Room clean and bed comfortable. Staff on reception often spoke no English which was odd. Food overpriced, but lovely staff in the restaurant (outdoor restaurant by the beach - lovely) No pool bar as stated on description. Annoying in the heat when you have to go back and forth to the restaurant.

Nice hotel, but location is quite far from the northern pier. Great service overall.
