We had specifically booked the sea beach villas at much higher cost as being ON the beach was super important to us. Infact that was the main criteria for our selection. On the day of our arrival we were informed they do not have the villas available due to some construction work, leaving us no choice in the matter. Though they did give us a very nice sea view villa, the disconnect from the beach to our stay mattered a lot and that is why I have marked the stay as 'not perfect'. I wish we were told before so that we didn't feel that we had no choice.

Quiet village with excellent service and location. We had 4 near perfect days in Koh Yao Yai Village.

Absolutely nothing!

It was one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed! The location was just sensational, the bungalows were so beautifully made. It felt like you had a bungalow in the middle of the jungle. The staff was really friendly. I wish we had booked a bit longer than 4 nights, because I can’t say anything bad about this place at all.

It was a tropical haven! Tucked away in a secluded area. Staff, facilities, the view, food, the private hut were EXCEPTIONAL! Will be back next year!

Village Resort is about a 25-minute drive from the island pier and all other main places of interest in the island. As the name suggests, it has a village-like feel, with separate villas spread across the property. We stayed in a deluxe villa, which was a good size, it has an external seating area, bedroom, and bathroom. The bed and shower were great. However, the room had a strong moldy, humid smell, which was a bit unpleasant. The resort amenities were nice, especially the oceanfront pool and the restaurant where breakfast is served. We didn't try the spa due to the high prices. Fortunately, there are a few local massage places just a few meters from the hotel costing only a fraction of what they are charging in the hotel. I highly recommend Leela Massage, which is about an 8-minute walk from the resort. Overall, it was a good stay, but there are some areas for improvement like Reception Standards & Communication. When we arrived, we weren’t offered a cold towel, which is a common practice in Thai resorts. This may have been an oversight on their part. Also, when we inquired about renting bicycles, we received different answers regarding prices. Some of the bikes had flat tires, and when we asked if they could be pumped, the receptionist said they didn’t have a pump. I don’t understand why they would offer bikes for rent that aren’t in good condition or have no plans for maintenance. In summary, the stay was pleasant, but the resort could benefit from better communication and attention to detail.

Breakfast was amazing. They had different local freshly cooked options and also a delicious herbal tea you can do for yourself. It is served ocean front and really pleasant. The only set back would be using boxed juice for some options (there was also fresh juice!). Location wise it was very good too, peaceful and natural. They had amazing coffee in the hotel and the ocean front bar and pool are really good. Also had stanup paddle and kayaks to lend freely.

Transport on the island is limited, but a car to shuttle us from the pier would have been preferable to an open truck/collectivo and its diesel fumes

Lovely selection of local and European style food at the buffet with something new to try from the friendly chef each day..Fabulous open air restaurant overlooking the gorgeous horizon pool and the ocean, dotted with karst islands. Idyllic! Our bungalow was set amidst the cooling tranquil forest with peaks at the ocean and numerous birds among the flowers

Hmm, it's actually hard to come up with something.

We were very impressed by the tasteful appointment of this resort and its natural setting. The facilities (restaurant and pool) are so well laid out and beautiful that they it was the best we have been to, and my husband and I have done a fair bit of travelling. Staff were really good, shoutout to Tewit on breakfast service each day as he was fantastic. Great happy hour specials too. Villas were spacious, beautifully appointed, and very well designed. We loved the large bathroom and outdoor shower. It's one of the few places we would love to return to and look forward to doing so.

Service at breakfast and the standard restaurant a bit crowded and slow - beach a bit less nice and a bit poluted - service alltogether a bit slow and could improve English - Spa too expensive

Super pool area - nice Grill restaurant - Houses nice designed in the rain-forest - food was nice

We liked the setting of the villa in the jungle, the outdoor sitting area, outdoor shower, pool area, seafood grill dinner and cocktail happy hour by the sea.

We stayed in a one bedroom villa, and the room itself was sadly a bit dark. Partly that comes from being in the forest, but I think other categories are proboably lighter. In retrospect, the villas with sea view at the hotel entrance are a killer, we should have booked that. Be aware as well that the muezzins are calling for prayer at least 3 times a day, sometimes at 5 in the morning, and you will hear it.Nothing to do with the hotel, but still.

The setting of the village resort was incredibly beautiful. In the middle of a rainforest, but manicured and very well looked after. I couldn’t get enough of all the greenery, and the noises from all types of creatures living there. It’s a feast for the eyes. Our room was very spacious, and the massive terrace turned out to be exactly the resting place I had imagined it to be. The view, and the pool are exceptional. Food was good, keeping in mind that they mostly cater for western tourists, but when asked for spicy, it always was. Prices were actually quite reasonable, we ate outside of the resort a few times, and wherever it was geared towards tourists, the prices were similar. Of course, little mum and pop places are way cheaper, but that is an unfair comparism. Staff were very kind, and we had no troubles at all.

Wow, what a stay! The room was beautiful with a great outdoor space, staff friendly, breakfast was incredible with a huge range of good and drinks, nothing was too much trouble. The local restaurants and area was just beautiful. The pool is huge, happy hour on cocktails at the beach bar, the pool bar was ace, beach gorgeous and full of of sand dollars. We extended stay by two days and me and the family loved it so much!

The speed of service at the restaurant and pool bar was very slow at times. The staff needed more training and they needed more people generally. The second pool was closed and the beach bar closed for a day.

The rooms were nice, the main pool was excellent with stunning views and the prices for food and drinks were fair for a hotel.

The beach looks lovely but isn't actually great if you want to do any sports other than a little light paddle boarding. There is not much to do on the rest of the island.

The location is stunning with the most beautiful view, the pool is exceptional. The restaurant was good for breakfast, dinner and drinks. All the staff were lovely. Our villa was huge, clean and really comfortable.

Kind and all-time available staff, excellent food and stunning landscape. Amenities are ideal. Very authentic and relaxing for a few-days stay

It would be handy to have a a small chest of drawers or cupboard to store unpacked clothing in the rooms.

The resort is absolutely beautiful; sit feels like you're embedded in nature. The facilities were fantastic, and the food was exceptional.

The resort Is wonderful and perfect for nature lovers who still want to enjoy the beach and pool. From the comfort of your terrace you can see monkeys, squirrels, lizards and friendly cats. It's a small paradise. The staff is very kind and can organise transfers and tours. Breakfast and check-out times are quite generous. Guests can use SUP boards and kayaks. The infinity pool is gorgeous. The bungalows come with a lovely terrace with patio furniture, mosquito net and fridge. The bed was extremely comfortable. We felt truly at home here.

HEAVEN. This was hands down the best place we stayed during our holiday. Everything is arranged to perfection: extremely friendly staff, fantastic pool, the restaurant is beyond words, the swimming pool is extraordinary and so on and so on. We will be back next year for sure!
