Good location, not in centre of party bars, but everything walkable in 5 minutes. Breakfast is served at the cafe over the road and lots of options. Pool was decent. Our room (number 7) was lovely. Bedding comfortable, large bathroom and 2 terraces. Fabulous sea views from your bed! In December, sadly we couldn’t see the sunset just around the corner but at other times of the year apparently it would be right in front of us. The ‘cove’ mentioned in previous reviews is more of a small concrete entryway into the sea so not a private beach. Nice staff, helpful. No sunbeds around the pool but a few daybeds/rattan sofas to relax on.

Currently some renovations of a bungalow on site. Wouldn’t affect us usually if the weather was calm as we would have been out each day but due to the wind, most boat trips were cancelled and a couple of days illness meant we were at the resort more than usual. Wasn’t terribly noisy but feel it should be mentioned so that future guests are aware. May not be too much longer for renovation?

Gteat location for Sairee Beach on both sides. Very peaceful and chilled, away from the noisy bars. We didn't bother hiring a bike as everything was in walking distance.The swimming pool was lovely with lots of seating areas. The views were stunning and had great sunsets from the pool and rocks at the bottom of the resort. The staff were lovely and friendly, and very helpful! They gave us plates of fruit, and when we left, they gave us each a little handmade bracelet. The room was very spacious and had great air con and a fan. We did have an issue with a leaky tap and broken patio door, but the tap was replaced with a new one immediately, and the door was fixed within hours after reporting it. The room service was fantastic, our room was cleaned daily, and we had 4 fresh towels daily! we loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Koh Tao! 🥰 Thank you to all the staff for making it a great stay xx

Our room was set back away from the pool and didn't have much of a view, but that's probably our fault for being on a budget. We did get to see the rooms on the very front, which had spectacular views, so maybe next time we would book one of these.

Room was great despite some reviews - I think half of the rooms are modern and renovated, luckily we got one of those. Bathroom was amazing & bed super comfortable. The pool was incredible & you could walk down to a mini “private beach” (although it wasn’t really a beach, it was still a cool way to get into the sea). Only two negatives were renovations being down which meant very loud construction sounds from 8am, but this didn’t bother us too much at all. Second negative was there was only 4/5 places to sit around the pool despite there being lots of rooms - not a huge deal but would have been nice to have a couple extra sun loungers. Also great location !! Would recommend - such a nice hotel:)

The location was quiet and you are only a few minutes walk to many restaurants, shops, bars and 4 yoga centres, the beach and the pier for arrival and trips. We had room 4A which is an upper room with garden view and side sea view. It is very large, was super clean and with large balcony. The manager and all the staff were very friendly and helpful to all our questions. The breakfast has an excellent selection and serves from 7- 12 so very flexible.

The pool had a great view but was a bit small and not many loungers around it. We had some building noise on a couple of days as they were renovating some of the rooms.

Location was great. 10 min walk to ferry and 5 min walk to restaurant and bar area on beach. Was quiet and the pool area and views were amazing. Watch the sunset from the pool. Room had a nice deck and chairs with a great sea view. Pool was clean and staff were always out cleaning common areas.

Our room #10 was ok but rustic which was expected. Beds were a little lumpy and pillows not so great. Our main issue with that room was any time you used the shower or the toilet a strong sewer smell came from the drains. Staff did try and remedy the situation but didn’t fix it. Only there 2 nights so stuck it out. Free breakfast across the street was so so. Have had much better in Thailand. The 2nd room we had for the other member of our family was great and without issues.

Couldn’t recommend Clear View Resorts enough. The room was clean and spacious with a beautiful view of the pool (which was really nice and clean) and the sea. The staff were also incredibly hospitable and were always happy to help if we needed anything. We always had a good laugh with the owner and he really did look after us the whole time. We recommend renting mopeds from the hotel - the owner sorts it all out and even when we had a bit of trouble he was so kind to us about it all! A lovely bonus was the free fresh watermelon every afternoon! Equally, if you want to organise taxis, diving, view points or want to see some turtles / aquatic life, speak with the owner, he will be able to help with it all. Overall such good value for money to stay in this beautiful hotel and in a great location. Would definitely stay here again next time we come to Koh Tao!

None

Easy to access as it's 10 min away from the pier where you'll arrive by ferry - The staff welcomed me with a nice watermelon platter for free - The stunning view from the swimming pool - The room was really fancy and comfy - Every day the staff will bring you 2 bottles of water - The location is perfect as you're 2 min away from the main beach and there are plenty of good restaurants - The location is good for partying as well, you're 15 min walking distance from all the bars/clubs

Nothing really, I just hoped I had a view on the sea but I didn't pay for that, I would recommend it

The location was out of the main area but still walkable and nice and quiet. We absolutely loved the room, it was so clean, cozy and romantic with beautiful warm lighting and many light switches to change it up. The pool was magnificent and clean, and the staff cleaned our room without fail everyday. Bed was FIRM but that’s the way we like it. The staff and owner were extremely friendly and hospitable. The location on the beach is magic. Netflix was available and you can connect from your phone! Overall loved our stay, thank you very much Clear View!

A few ants and a cockroach, but nothing out of ordinary for such a tropical wild place !

This hotel is a small family friendly hotel. Rooms are spacious inside and outside. Comfortable beds as shower. Outside you have a big terrace with lounge chairs. Perfect to see the sunrise or sunset. Everyday the room is cleaned and in the afternoon you will get fresh watermelon. The owner is very friendly and he will help you with everything for a very good price. We arranged our motorbikes, fishtail and some taxi boats which were great! The swimmingpool is big abd very welcoming after a hot walk or ride. Overall this hotel is very family friendly, no noise at night and great place to stay as a family because the bungalow are quiet big!

Nothing

I cannot say I agree with the negative reviews. We rented two small houses (3 and 4) and they were clean upon arrival. The houses are definitely not new but do have a certain charm and the sea views are magnificent. We followed the recommendation to not leave any food in the bins and did not see any cockroaches. We had some mini ants close to the front door but they were removed by the cleaning team and they did not come back. Beach is closeby as well as nice restaurants/breakfast options. Pool was clean and refreshing. Accomodation offers laundry service (well done), tour reservation (we arranged a snorkling tour and were picked up at the resort) and motor bike rental (did not try). We were offered fresh water melon every day by the owner. Wifi worked fine. If you are looking for a sparkling, newly renovated top notch accomodation you better look elsewhere but if you are just looking for a decent, clean accomodation at a fair price I can recommend.

Matresses are hard but this seems to be common in Thailand :-)
