Guest Reviews
- Greg_78 (10/5): - I always stay at Ananda Villa whenever I visit Koh Tao, and it has consistently been a great experience.
Very convenient location, comfortable rooms, friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Everything is simple, easy and works well, which is exactly what I need when staying on the island.
Good value for money and always a reliable place to stay on Koh Tao.
- Michal (7/5): - Beachfront location, very simple room a bit empty Old unrenovated bathroom, no net so always close the door
- Eef (10/5): -
- Lisette (8/5): Everything was wonderful minus the bathroom issues in the king room. - Great location! Beautiful washer is on the bed building Shower draining in king room did not drain. Lots of bugs in the bathroom
- Silke (10/5): - Super schönes Hotel direkt am Strand und in der City. Das Personal ist super lieb. Im Haus befindet sich ein Restaurant das leckeres Frühstück und Essen zu super Preisen anbiete. Die Zimmer sind toll und jedes hat Meerblick. Jeder hat eine Strandmatte und Strandtücher im Zimmer. Alles toll !
- pauline (8/5): Je serai bien restée 1 semaine de plus 😍 - Emplacement parfait proche ferry, plage, boutiques, stations de scooter taxi, avec deux restaurants annexés à l'hôtel dont un qui donne sur la plage et celui de l'arrière était bon est pas cher (pour un salaire occidental).
(Voir photos dans les deux restaurants)
Jolie vue quand on rentre dans les chambres.
Des draps de plage sont mis à disposition 🥰, la les faïence dans la salle de bain, la terrasse, le lit confortable (ferme), la chambre était spacieuse et la dame à l'accueil agréable. Traces noires d'accumulation de crasse tout autour de la poignet de la salle de bain. Il faut dire aux personnes faisant le ménage de nettoyer ici aussi. Autrement la chambre était impeccable.
Le voisin faisait beaucoup de bruit (chantait pendant 1h avec la musique à fond), c'était comme si nous partagions la même chambre jusqu'à 22:00-00:00. J'imagine qu'avec des voisins respectueux, cela n'aurait pas posé de pb.
- Andrea (9/5): Absolut empfehlenswert, wenn man an diesem Strand wohnen möchte. - Sehr sauber, zentral gelegen aber ruhig. Viel Platz, schöner Balkon zum Entspannen. Sehr freundliches Personal! Nichts
- Victoria (10/5): -
- Nathalie (10/5): - Calme pour la localisation
- Sara (10/5): -
- Maryse (8/5): -
- François (9/5): Très belle emplacement - Très bonne localisation, à côté du port et à 2 pas de la plage. Lieu calme est très agréable
- Ignacio (4/5): No merece la pena - Ubicación al lado del muelle de llegada Las fotos no hacen justicia a la realidad, habitaciones en mal estado de mantenimiento
Actitud pésima por parte del staff y una recepción nunca disponible,si había problemas hay que perseguirles. El horario tampoco ayuda ya que no es 24 horas y cuando te vas o regresas de las actividades está siempre cerrada
- Rodríguez Sevilla (10/5): -
- Sánchez Montaña (9/5): -
- Jorjix (7/5): -
- Guest (6/5): Not worth the price - On the beach and close to the ferry Wasn’t really clean, the shower didn’t drain properly
- Salmon (7/5): Bon emplacement mais hôtel sans charme - Situé à 2 minutes à pied de l'embarcadère, très pratique. Suffisamment en recul des axes principaux pour ne pas entendre les scooters et pick-up très nombreux.
Petite vue sympa sur la mer et la plage. Par contre pas de charme et un peu vieillot, dommage ! Un rafraîchissement des chambres / salles de bains et une déco plus sympa seraient bienvenus.
- Vincent (8/5): - Emplacement magnifique. Chambre vue mer avec une baie vitrée donnant sur la plage. Chambre spacieuse et confortable. Il a fallu insister pour ne pas payer 3% de taxe en plus (CB) que le prix convenu sur Booking (taxes et frais inclus). Chambre non faite le lendemain (peut être parce que nous étions ds la chambre ? Mais pas de second passage). Isolation sonore limitée comme quasiment partout donc on entend les vagues et les fêtards sur la plage.
- Martin (8/5): - L'emplacement
- Ron (10/5): - 20 מ מהים. מסעדות זולות וטובות 10 מ מהחדר. חדר מרווח.
- Luca (9/5): Superb -
- Valentina (8/5): Very good - It’s a nice hotel right on the beach and close to the pier. Everything is close. Clean and comfortable bed. Its perfect for a short stay. Next to it there’s a diving school and it can be quite noisy in the morning/night.
- Kirsten (7/5): Good -
- Daniel (9/5): Superb -
- Cathy (8/5): Great location for pier and beach - So close to the beach and pier. Reasonably priced. Staff very friendly. Attached restaurant called Breeze was great for breakfast and lunch. Bed was quite hard
- Terry (8/5): Decent - can recommend, great location - Great location, nice restaurant below, simple but clean and effective for what I wanted
- Richard (10/5): Well run hotel in ideal location close to ferry piers with excellent restaurant -
- François-marie (5/5): It was alright, nice for the views but not the best experience I’ve had - The bed was very comfortable. Great view on the beach and lovely terrace. We left our room early in the morning and returned after 3pm and the room had not been cleaned. The bedsheets are ripped and look dirty from old stains.
- James (8/5): Very good - Excellent location for a short stay in Koh Tao. The rooms are comfortable and just next to the beach for a beautiful sunset. You're also 2 mins walk from the pier for a boat.
- Maelys (9/5): Nice stay would recommend - Very clean nice looking room and spacious
Very practical location
Nice view of the water from the balcony Some of the staff did not speak english so it was hard to communicate about certain things
Had to wait around a lot when checking in when renting a motorbike when we asked to change the water tank
- James (10/5): Perfect place to stay. - Great location
- Panktir (9/5): Superb - The location is really good. It was a spacious room. Staff was super helpful with other tour bookings and all.
Lovely stay

- Catheriya (10/5): Will be coming back, thank you ananda villa and staff 🙏 - Staff were lovely, right on the beach with beach view from our balcony and sunset every night. Comfy clean beds and room, room was cleaned every day and fresh water and towels each day. Was really lovely and will be returning again next time I'm in koh tao for sure.
- Shirley (9/5): Clean and quiet resort - Receptionist are very nice, room is clean, great location near pier. The area is surprisingly quiet at night, the bed is very comfortable. I had great sleep in this resort. The washroom is a bit dated, but it is clean.
- Amadeusz (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pawel (8/5): Great place on beach with big room and balcony - location and room with balcony
- Garrie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Verified traveler (8/5): Rekommenderas starkt - Enkelt och rent. Mycket trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Bra och snabb tvättjänst. Gick fint att ordna snorkling via hotellet och även att ändra datumet. Vi är supernöjda med vår vistelse.
- Nicholas (7/5): I would definetely return, taking into account some learnings - The Villa is in a fantastic area, everything was close! Our welcome was super, the reception really do care. The view we had was amazing! Just some things:
- no hairdryer
- we booked 2 boats and both were wrong times or cancelled (I would recommend doing it on 12Go)
- Sylvaine (8/5): A nice place to stay if you’re catching an early ferry. - Location near the pier, restaurants and boutiques. Room was comfortable and clean. Breeze restaurant had good food. The noise behind shower, I think it was the filling of scuba tanks. After first night I got use to it.
There is no breakfast included in price which is a little high for Thailand.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Enkelt och fräscht rum och vänlig personal - Rum nummer 203
Sammanfattning: Mycket vänlig och hjälpsam personal och stort rent rum.
BRA
Läget: ett par minuters promenad från piren och vattnet.

- Andra (10/5): Lovely. - Great location, beautiful accommodation and a very good restaurant.
- Irina (10/5): The best place to stay in Koh Tao! - Excellent location, quiet and beautiful by the sea, excellent food at the restaurant, great view on the balcony. N/A
- Ashley (9/5): Stunning location for a tropical getaway on the beach - Completely blown away by the view we had from our room. I was not expecting this so was pleasantly surprised. The location couldn't have been better, a minute walk from the pier and the staff were lovely. There was only 1 thing we didn't like and it was the bed. Unfortunately it was rock hard and very uncomfortable but that was our only gripe.
- Maisie (7/5): Good - It matches the pictures and description, the room was nice and view was nice Felt it didn’t offer complete value for money
- Gabriel (10/5): - Great hotel with spacious rooms. Walkable to lots of restaurants. The staff were very helpful and accommodating.
- Lynn (9/5): Stunning location, comfy beds and lovely staff - Absolutely loved our stay at Ananda Villa. The room was beautiful, bright, clean and spacious!. The beds were the comfiest I have had yet on my trip to Thailand The staff were lovely and attentive and the restaurant was good too.. we ate here both nights of our stay. Nothing
- Janina Bianca (8/5): - Gute Lage direkt am Pier, kein Pool!
- Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - Very kind staff.
Great location.
The restaurant was great.
- Eldad (8/5): if you like to sleep late, it is not for you, - it was in a central location, easy to reach and near the main street location, it is very close to the harbor therefore it was very load.
- Mikel (9/5): I live in Thailand and I’m a frequent visitor to the islands. Typically, I stay in a more quiet remote part of the islan - The location was excellent, and the property had a charm to it.
The staff was fantastic very welcoming. I would happily stay here every visit. I don’t have any negative to say
- Puntira (7/5): Good -
- K (8/5): Great stay-great location - The location was perfect! We rented a scooter but you could also walk to nice areas. The rooms were clean and we had everything we needed. It got quite noisy until 10pm. So if you want to get rest around that time it wouldn’t be possible.
- Larisse (8/5): Perfect location - Location is perfect! Rooms were very comfortable too. Wifi is not strong
- Tina (10/5): A perfect place to stay - Stunning sea view from the room. Quality beds and pillows, very clean and friendly staff
- Robin (8/5): Clean, comfortable and friendly staff make for a pleasant stay. - Easy walk from the pier. The balcony doors rattled with the wind, sounded like someone was o ok g on the door.
- Maria (8/5): Very good -
- Kyong (10/5): Exceptional - Have stayed here many time over the years while scuba diving. Perfect villa for it.
- H (10/5): Exceptional -
- Asaph (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kate (8/5): Very good - Central and just what we needed! Large room & friendly staff Wifi didn’t work :(
- Markko (1/5): Bad -
- Edward (2/5): convenient location but sheets weren't changed - close to the ferry sheets were not clean. there was no hand soap. Toilet hose pressure was stronger than the shower pressure.
- Candy (9/5): Comfort bed,closed to the pier - Bed is very comfort. Good air conditioning. there is only rain shower
- Laura (10/5): A dreamy stay in Koh Tao - Very convenient location, close to the port and lots in that area. It's a easy walk to Sairee beach area and a great location if you're in Koh Tao to dive.
The room was lovely and I had a fantastic view of the beach and sunset from my room & balcony! It was worth it for that alone.
Staff are lovely and very helpful. They obliged an early check in which was very kind. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby! I'd happily stay again Nothing - I had the best time!
- Lauren (10/5): perfect location- right on the beach! comfiest bed with big pillows. lots of restaurants around the area and lively town - amazing location! 3 minute walk to the main pier and right on the beach! honestly hard to fault this place but if i’m being really picky maybe would have been nice to have a more advanced tv that had youtube on (there were only thai channels available)
- Maddison (9/5): Superb -
- Jessica (9/5): Superb -
- Lior (9/5): Perfect! If I’ll come back I go to this hotel! - Very clean! Comfy beds and the location is unbelievable good! Near to the pier, restaurants and to the beach where you see the sunset I wish to have shower head that you can hold
- Max (9/5): Superb - Right on the beach, lovely rooms, reception were great and pretty much in a perfect location Wifi wasn’t working
- Enes (9/5): Superb -
- Lynn (8/5): Very good - Good location easy to walk to from the ferry and nearby food options - the beach isn’t the best though. The bed was the best we slept on in Thailand.
- Tim (9/5): Superb - Property was right on the beach, room was a good size, the bed was very comfortable. Everything worked. Great restaurant right opposite our room. Lack of electric sockets where you could use them. Otherwise nothing.
- Wendy (8/5): Very good - Great location!
- Mark (10/5): Great stay, located right on the beach, close to dive boats! - Great spot right next to the beach. I went diving with Crystal Dive who is located right next door, so it was very conveniently located. The room was excellent. Onsite laundry service was very convenient and priced well. Highly recommended if you're looking to stay on the beach in an area of town that's busy during the day but very quite at night. The lock to the room was a padlock. It worked but less than ideal.
- Maarten (9/5): Superb - Location on the beach
Great restaurant on the beach with nice staff and good food
Good value for money
Good AC Shower is simple and outdated
Room is sizeable but no furniture. Furniture on balcony are simple plastic chair
Cleaning of the bedsheets can be better (has spots)
- Christoph (8/5): Very good - They provided beach towels, umbrellas, a beach mat and two bottles of fresh water per day. The balcony was spacious and had a nice seating area. It is in walking distance of the ferry. The bedsheets and the bathroom were not spotless clean. The balcony had a bit of rust. People smoked on the balconies and the smell was everywhere (even our room and bathroom). The beach isn't the nicest due to all the ships right next to it. (You can't have both though, walking distance to ferry and no ships).
An outdoor shower would go a long way with the sand from the beach.
- Sara (10/5): A great place to stay in Koh Tao! - Great location by the beach and close to ferry port, super clean and comfortable, lots of little extras such as beach mats, towels, coffee, etc., a great balcony to relax on, decent WiFi and lots of hot water - lovely staff, highly recommended!
- Sara (8/5): Excellent stay - Close to the beach
- Deborah (9/5): Superb - The room we had was overlooking the beach with the Quayside to the left, so a wonderful view! The room was large with great AC.. Nothing
- Mark (8/5): Very good - Convenient for the ferry, right on the beach and adjacent to Black Turtle dive shop
- Estefania (7/5): Amazing time in Tao - The location is perfect, right next to the pier and almost at the beach. Also lots of places to eat and drink 1 min away. The beds were very comfortable. The building is a bit old, but doesn’t bother me.
- Martine (9/5): Superb -
- Karen (9/5): I should have stayed longer! - It had a beautiful feel about it! Fab outlook right on the beach ! Great big balcony for lounging on/. The position of all the rooms so they all had a great view. The attached restaurant was expensive.
- Maureen (10/5): Fantastic place to stay. - Awesome place to stay. Great location and facilities.Very friendly and helpful. We will be back again.
- Preetin (7/5): Location and price - Great location and great price. We booked this property for a few hours to wait for our ferry since we couldn't get late checkout at our previous property. It's located very close to the ferry terminals, shops and a fairly nice beach.
- Syms (7/5): Highly recommend! - The location was amazing, very close to the main pier and the rooms were large and comfortable. The staff was lovely and the rooms were clean also! The breeze café by reception also had great food options for vegetarian, vegan and some gluten free which is always a plus! The walls are a little thin so you can hear everything going on outside
- Mimi (10/5): We would stay there again. Highly reccomended. - Location was great, central but quiet and in front of a great beach!! Room was cleaned daily and we were given two bottles of water and coffee everyday. Balcony was the best with an amazing view. Bed was super comfortable. All around great stay - we kept saying to ourselves that we got so lucky because it’s the best hotel for a reasonable price. We would stay there again. Room could use a paint job (fingerprints on the walls) and the wifi was ok but we worked remotely from the room and I wouldn’t recommend relaying on their wifi for video calls.
- Nuala (8/5): Excellent option for a quick visit to Koh Tao - Beautiful bright rooms over looking the beach, very close to the ferry port so was ideal for a short stay to Koh Tao. Staff were lovely and helpful. There’s a nice restaurant downstairs. Nothing!
- Anonymous (3/5): Poor -
- Paul (9/5): We were looked after extremely well by a wonderful team at this beautiful beachfront location - Central location with beautiful views over the beach which was kept spotlessly clean and tidy by a consistently friendly and helpful team of staff Having to leave at the end of the trip :(
- Marty (8/5): Great location and comfortable room - Great location in Mae Haad. Walking distance from the ferry. Right on the beach and abundant restaurants.
Large room and large enough bathroom with shower and hot water. fresh bottles of drinking water every day.
Plenty of drawers and closetspace. Big safe and umbrellas to use.
Big enough balcony with a hint of seaview. I missed a chair/desk in the room. The room was big enough to have a desk of some sorts, but didn't. I suppose I could have asked for a chair or brought one ine from the balcony, but I didn't. So really no big deal. Just something I noticed.
Also, because of the location, it could get a little noisy: The clanging of oxygenbottles from the diveschool below and the kitchensounds from the restaurant. DIdn't bother me terribly, but late sleepers might want earplugs
- Charlotte (10/5): Amazing - Perfect. Right on the beach, walking distance to enough places. Very clean and comfortable and super friendly staff Nothing
- Robert (9/5): Superb -
- Anonymous (6/5): Pleasant -
- Stephan (10/5): Exceptional - Right on the beach and plenty of things to do around at walking distance. Very friendly and facilitating staff. Nice and spacious bathroom and very comfortable beds.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
