About the AVA Resort Koh Tao

The AVA Resort Koh Tao is situated on a hillside north of Sairee Beach, overlooking the west coast. The rooms and pool offer stunning views across the Gulf, particularly of the sunset. Restaurants and dive centers in Sairee are just a few minutes away by scooter or taxi; the resort is not directly on the beach.

The rooms are spacious, and the pool with its view is the first thing guests mention, along with a small café serving coffee and light meals. The criticisms are mostly practical: the reception closes in the evening, the hot water can sometimes be slow to arrive, and rooms near the garden pond can be noisy at night due to the frogs croaking. Therefore, ask for a room further away.

It is suitable for couples who want a quiet room with a view and plan to rent a scooter or use taxis to get around.

    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.
