I loved everything about my stay at KoYao… accommodating, kind, friendly staff, my villa was beautiful, the food was excellent, my spa services were wonderful. The staff went above and beyond to make me comfortable and happy, they booked local tours for me, and even helped with clothing repair when I broke a zipper on my dress! Quite simply paradise.

Absolutely amazing stay! Thank you to the staff who are so kind and attentive. You people alone make the hotel a 10/10 stay. The property is stunning. The view from the pool right alongside the beach was beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. Stayed in the panorama tent room. Incredible. Breakfast was a 10/10, and the dinner menu is amazing. Tried several items on the menu and everything was delicious! Highly recommend. Would love to stay again one day!

Quiet, nice, peaceful

We stayed on the hill in one of the luxury hornbill tents with a private pool. It was fabulous, but pricy. It was definitely worth the experience for us. We had floating breakfast in our little pool. It was amazing. We then moved down to one of the less expensive villas. These were older, less comfortable, more rustic. Ours was full of mosquitoes and a few other critters. The staff burned mossie coils and we slept under the netting, but there were still lots -- there is standing water next to the property. It may be different if you stay on the right side as you look at the ocean. Ours was in the corner on the left by the mangroves. The grounds are outstanding -- so beautiful. We saw hornbills on the property and really enjoyed the beauty of the beach and island views. The staff tried hard and were very pleasant and welcoming, but could be better trained. I think they are just coming back from COVID and are not up to full speed yet.

Beautiful location, lovely staff, nice restaurant, great service

A unique place in Kao Noi, a unique settings and views of the bay surrounded by nature, sounds of gentle waves, birds (hornbills) with a very attentive staff. With a strong Wifi and yet close to Nature, a peacufull stress free where you can relax.

This is a really lovely hotel in a great location but somehow it didn’t quite live up to expectations. It’s an expensive option but in a lot of ways had more of a feel of a 3/4 star than premium property. Beach is fantastic and the longest frontage of any hotel I’ve stayed in, really clean sandy stretch and hardy anybody using it bar the odd hotel guest. I’d avoid the cheapest sea breeze rooms unless you are comfortable being exposed to the elements and mosquitoes, at times we needed to sit in darkness to stop insects being drawn in. That said, the room was large and had a fantastic view and will wow you at first sight. Restaurant was ok. Good breakfast choice of reasonable quality items although staff seemed to lack confidence and weren’t that attentive unless you asked. Other than breakfast we only ate lunch once there as it seemed rather expensive compared to the other local places scattered around the area who served comparable quality at around a third of the price We liked the free use of bikes and kayaks etc. Pool had a good location but water seemed a bit cloudy and the filtration seemed to leave a film and scum/leaf residue in corner. Overall we would stay again if the rates were a cheaper or the standards upped a little to improve value.

Lovely place with phenomenal view form the pool, and outstanding stuff. Had a dinner in hotel’ restaurant; food was very good, as well as service. Got an upgrade on arrival to full size villa. It was an adequate size, comfy but slightly tired. Also lights on the deck above a bed were way to strong. I had to take off one light bulb. Dimmers should be installed.

Lovely location, well laid out and space to do your own thing

What an amazing place! They really went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, relaxing and memorable. From having someone greet us at the airport and take us to the speed boat to upgrading us to a seafront villa and even arranging a private romantic dinner for two - they were the best!! The resort and the beach is clean, the staff are all friendly and so helpful, the Pum Pui restaurant is one of the best on the island and food is incredibly delicious! The rooms were spacious and comfortable (and they even had an outside shower). Im still day dreaming of being in the infinity pool that looked onto the Andaman Sea. I honestly couldn't have asked for better. We did a lot of research of whether to stay on KYY or KYN and we're very happy we chose KYN and especially pleased with Koyao Island Resort.

Wonderful resort, so relaxing for 5 days after busy travelling for 2 weeks. Beautiful natural sandy beach wow!! Lovely breakfast so fresh. And lovely food and wonderful staff always smiling and friendly. Thanks to the staff who made our days so wonderful! I stayed at villa with suite, lovely comfortable and huge bathroom. Worth spend more money for the villa!!

Beautiful beach and stunning view. Private beach cottages, plenty of space, quiet, gorgeous infinity pool.

Great accommodation and amenities, wonderful service and staff plus amazing location.

This resort has it all! The rooms and staff are top notch, it’s on the best beach on the island, and next to the best restaurants. The bartender also makes the most fantastic cocktail we had in all of Thailand, the Tom Yam Siam. It’s a must!

We couldn't be happier that we chose to stay on Koh Yao Noi. The island is exactly what we were looking for - a quiet, beautiful, untarnished paradise. I did extensive research before deciding to book Koyao Island Resort. We arrived on a longtail boat to the beachfront of the resort. Though after we arrived, we were nearly forgotten about. They were clearly busy (or understaffed) & no one took the time to figure out who we were, tell us about the resort and what we could expect, etc. We had to flag someone down to figure out next steps & were told we could leave our bags and our room would be ready in a few hours. And that was it. Not the best first impression. We then took the resort bikes to check out the area and have lunch while we were waiting for our room. The island itself is such a gem and I'd highly recommend taking time to check out the local shops, restaurants, hidden beaches, etc. The locals are SO friendly and everything feels very safe. Our villa was wonderful, spacious, & well kept. Breakfast buffet is impressive though the service at breakfast was unfriendly and sparse. We also had to call the front desk multiple times to have someone fix our toilet. Upon leaving, we went to settle our bill & saw charges in error. What next ensued was a thorough interrogation before they acted like they were doing us a favor by removing charges that weren't ours. All the potential to be a 5-star experience but misses the mark when it comes to customer service.

Beautiful hotel on the beach! Thoroughly enjoyed this hotel - the room was amazing, the staff, especially Francis was so helpful, the restaurant delicious, and excursions really nice. We used the free mountain bikes to bike around the island. Love this place and its atmosphere!!

Amazing place! Would go back!

staff was very helpful, and the resort is extremely beautiful. no lock on the door to the room, so be aware of that.there is a safe though, so there’s that. overall, had an amazing stay. just be aware that this room is open to the environment, so no ac, and critters can get in easily if that sort of thing bothers you.

View from your l private pool is superb. the service is also great. we stayed in room24, very nice view.

Great hotel to get away from the crowded tourist areas of Phuket/Krabi. The few number of rooms this hotel has is a big asset and adds to the overall tight-knit feeling of the resort. One improvement I would suggest is more attentive service from the restaurant/bar staff.
