About the Elixir Resort Koh Yao Yai

The Elixir Resort is located near the southern tip of Koh Yao Yai, in a location as remote as almost any other on the two Yao Islands. It's a beach resort in Phru Nai, and this very seclusion is what makes it so appealing: a place to relax for a few days, not a base for exploring.

Location is key to your stay. The island's villages, jetties, and the Laem Haad sandbank are all located far to the north, and Koh Yao Noi is even further away. Therefore, plan to eat on-site and book transfers through the resort rather than relying on public boats.

    Tips for visiting hotels and resorts

    Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.

    After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.

    Location is more important than the stars

    A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
