Absolutely fab location! We wanted something out of the way and on this side of the island and this hotel provided that. The villa was great, private pool and they knew they were out of the way so provided a 5L bottle of water in the room you could buy for 70 baht. The communal pools are huge and loads of sun beds. The restaurant was lovely, we ate there for our evening meal and all enjoyed everything and it wasn’t overpriced.

It’s very very hilly! I would recommend a rucksack over a suitcase if you stay here. The breakfast wasn’t the best and if you want a croissant, they tried charging an extra 90 baht. Also I wouldn’t bother walking down to “the beach”. There’s hardly any beach, it’s super rocky and there’s no way you could lay towels down there. I wouldn’t waste the walk down like we did.

While the location is remote, it was exactly what we were looking for from a resort. The breakfast is one of the better we've had at hotels: well labeled and wide selection of items. We stayed a week and there were always new dishes to sample. There is a complimentary shuttle to/from the pier (twice daily). The hotel also picked us up when the ferry arrived. We most liked Tanote Beach, direct access from the hotel; the snorkeling is amazing, but it is quite crowded in the water. The hill from/to the resort is a doozy, but you can take your time still arrive within 5 minutes.

We used the complimentary shuttle to the pier one day and the scheduled return shuttle never showed up. We reached out via Whatsapp and were lied to once they replied (the lie: he's been there waiting since 4:30pm). It took an hour before the driver showed up; it's a 15 minute drive from the hotel to the pier. We understand things happen, but why not be truthful? It was very off-putting.

This resort has all you need for a relaxing vacation! They offer you a shuttle from and to the pier which is already a good bargain, there is a pool with a gorgeous view, but most of all it is located over one of the best snorkeling spots on the island. The staff was friendly and very helpful

I suppose the TV wasn't working but it not a big deal if you have such a view from the balcony :)

We loved that the hotel was only a ten minute drive to the main area but felt away from the back packer area and felt super chilled. Hotel were very helpful with arranging taxis, snorkelling trip which was the best we’ve done and picking up up! The pools were beautiful

Food could have been better and expected the room to be a bit nicer / brighter / more modern, nicer bathroom but on the whole was perfect for a few nights

We loved everything about Tanote Villa. It was 5* hotel, we had a beautiful deluxe room with a pool access which was amazing. The room itself was huge, perfectly equipped, very relaxed. The hotel itself was beautiful, very well decorated. We loved the restaurant and the breakfast? Wow!!! One of the best we ever had with a breathtaking views. They offered gyoza and dim sum, egg as you wish, variety of Thai food and drinks. The location was excelent, just 5 mins walk to the beach with one of the best snorkeling spots in Thailand. 100%!!!

We loved absolutely everything about the hotel.

It’s a lovely location with great views over the sea. It’s a short walk down and back up to and from the beach but we enjoyed this. The beach is great with brilliant snorkelling and you can also do the short walk up the road behind the Hotel to the sun and moon restaurant with a great cooking school, views and delicious food. We stayed in a pool villa, the rooms were comfortable and our pool was very nice. The main pools are big and beautiful to look at. The breakfast / dinner area is nicely decorated.

It’s a hotel in the jungle so to be expected but there were big spiders in the room. The main pool had lots of chemicals in it, our room pool was fine though.

Fantastic location in the cliff in the middle of the jungle, beautiful view, very nice and attentive staff, beautiful villas. Amazing experience overall!

Would be handy to have mirror in the room, was only available in the bathroom, which was also pretty dark. The path to the beach is beautiful, but has a lot of garbage/dump along the way. It might be not for the hotel to clean it, but would be great initiative to perhaps collect some money (crowd funding) to get this beautiful nature clean and preserved - I’m sure all tourists would support and contribute to it.

We loved it here, very clean, nice staff and

The distance from the town, taxi was 500baht down and then 500 baht back so kind of stopped us leaving the resort

Hotel was amazing. Beautiful garden and pool area, friendly staff and amazing view to Tanote bay. Location was what was promised, less than 10 minutes walk to the Tanote Beach and a bit more than 10 minutes back to the Hotel because of the altitude difference. Breakfast was versatile and expecially we loved thai food even there were nice selection of western food like toast, bancake and eggs. We stayed In garden bungalow and it was spacious. Bed was really big and comfortable. We had extra bed to our son and that was only mattress In the floor. But it was spring mattress so it was also comfortable. Shower had cold and hot water and bathroom was also spacious. Blue Sea Restaurant next to hotel has thai and western food, both were nice. Prices were ok. Staff was really nice and helpfull. Tanote bay is good for snorkling. Lot of fish and coral. Because of wind, visibility wasn't best possible and one morning there were quite much green algal bloom.

You should notice that because of the altitude difference, this Hotel or it's location is not for some one who has problems moving around.

Nice property, rooms by the pool were worth the extra price… pools were nice to have a dip as it was hot hot… friendly staff especially Pim who helped out with everything quickly and with a smile, can get scooters at the hotel which you really need if you want to go see a few places around the island without spending cash on the super-pricey taxis… Tanote bay is beautiful and I love to swim so it was amazing to swim out far and see the fish and the scuba divers doing their thing without the busy ness of the boats around….

Breakfast was average enough but it did vary so it was fine… you are isolated if you don’t have a scooter but a nice place to really relax with the partner…ac never quite seemed to get cool enough but it was super hot… overall I would likely go back…steep climb back to the villa after walking down to the beach…
