Shantaa Koh Kood

The Shaanta is a wonderful little boutique hotel on the very quiet island of Koh Kood. The restaurant is excellent, and I don't think that there is a better place to eat on the island. Having said that, by the fourth night I pretty much had the menu memorized. There is not much of a beach and very little that is in walking distance. This is definitely the type of place to come if you just want to sit back and relax. I found the rooms to be a little bit small and cramped. If you are coming I would limit your stay to a couple of days and then head of the much larger and more interesting Koh Chang.

Honestly, this place is amazing. The staff are wonderful. I have toured most of the island and pretty much every resort has been a bit run down and dirty, but Shantaa is clean. The staff are out every morning picking up any leaves that have fallen in the night and cleaning up any garbage that has washed up on the beach. From front desk, to restaurant staff, to the cleaning staff, everyone has been amazing. Do not hesitate to stay here. The food is amazing too. If there were a larger beach this place would be $1000 a night easily (rent a scooter and go to any beach you want). 5 stars, 10 out of 10, two thumbs up etc. etc…I will definitely be coming back. I cannot recommend this place enough. Oh, they’re very nice to animals too.

We would come back to Shantaa again and again!! The location, the grounds, the villas, the beaches, the pool, the restaurants and beach bars/cafes are sll beautiful! The food and drinks are top notch and the staff are genuinely the nicest people in Thailand. We were sad to leave but will aim to come back!

I feel the Shantaa Resort is the best option on Koh Kood. The villas are amazing with great A/C, clean and comfortable. The pool was nice and the ocean view is rocky which isn't that big of a problem. The beach is 200 Meters to the left which is an easy walk. You can rent a scooter for 350 Baht for 24 hours to explore the Island & try other local restaurants. The food was great (not too overpriced) and the staff were all super friendly. I would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay 2-night stay at the Shantaa during our recent trip to Koh Kood. We felt instantly relaxed upon arrival. The rooms were well spaced and very private feeling. The food at the restaurant was nice and we thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast experience. The staff were amazing and we weree well looked after.

Great atmosphere. Relaxed and not crowded, making it perfect for a peaceful stay. The grounds are spacious with plenty of comfortable areas to sit and unwind, and there are activities to enjoy as well. The food is decent, and the staff provide excellent service. At night, the place is quiet and calm. There’s a private beach, and shops are within walking distance. Overall, I really loved it and would definitely come back again.

Absolutely everything about this resort was perfect - service, rooms, amenities, location, etc. etc. were all 5 stars. Could not have asked for anything else.

Beautiful room and lovely staff. Nice and relaxed resort with lots of amenities, beautiful grounds and lots of space to relax.

Staff attentiveness, beautiful vistas & accommodation

Beyond exceptional, cleanliness, hospitality, site all world class.

Just had such a wonderful stay. Beautiful grounds. Fantastic room. Good at the restaurant is lovely and reasonably priced

Shantaa Resort was very peaceful and serene. Bedrooms and bathrooms were great. Restaurant served amazing dinner and made to order breakfast buffets. Pool and beach were also great. Concierge was helpful and able to book us a driver for our 1 day island exploration. I would highly recommend Shantaa to anybody.

This property is a couples paradise if your looking for a quiet vacation. Staff is exceptional and every bungalow is positioned for privacy. Great place for rest and relaxation and if you never want to leave the resort, you wont need to. My girl friend and i rented a scooter(moped) from Shantaa and explored the whole island. We only used 1 tank of gas the entire time.

Wonderful resort. Clean, unique and detailed design. Modern with a wonderful serene campus. Lovely staff with excellent accommodations

Fantastic place to just chill out

Everything about this resort was excellent. From the moment we arrived we were treated better than family. They saw to our every need. The room and view was fantastic. The restaurant was outstanding. The breakfast alone is worth going back for. It seems every member of the staff knew us and treated us with incredible kindness. We rented a scooter for 2 days and it was fairly priced and in excellent condition.

This was my second stay at this property. It is an amazing resort. I would definitely stay here again. I enjoyed everything about this resort. I love the food, scooter rentals, the pool, the grounds, the room, etc. The layout of the bathrooms in the rooms are amazing. They are outside, but partitioned off for privacy. I love exterior bathrooms in the tropics. I hope to visit this resort in the future. I have many good memories of this place.

We enjoyed our stay at Shantaa. What stood out was the expansive area with the villas strategically located for privacy, providing a sense of open space with beautiful views of the sea. Enjoyed the lap pool in the mornings. The restaurant sat atop a hill and during this season few people were there. Suggest staying with the Thai food options, as the Western food was limited and did not compare to the quality of the Thai food. Staff friendly and very accommodating. Adding a spa to the resort recommended.

We absolutely loved this resort. From the moment you arrive, you feel special. Our room was fantastic, especially the outside bathroom and the terrace. It is very spacious and so quiet! The pool is beautiful and makes for the lack of beach in front of the resort. Although the beach is only about 5 mins walk, on the other side of the pier and it’s a beautiful one. We loved the chilled café, reminded us of Ibiza vibes. The restaurant was fantastic, highly recommended but beware, the portions are huge! Certainly one of the best resort on the island!

This is the best place we've ever stayed. The location, relaxed atmosphere, incredible food and friendly staff make it a haven on a beautiful island. The villa rooms are beautifully simple and high end. There are so many spots to relax or spend hours in the sun in with two beaches to access. The standout is the food and drinks (cocktails in particular) on offer at Shantaa. We would come back and stay in a heartbeat.
