About the View Point Resort

View Point Resort is situated on a promontory at the western end of Chalok Baan Kao Bay on Koh Tao's tranquil south coast, far from the bars of Sairee and the boat traffic of Mae Haad. Accommodations extend up the hillside, ranging from beach houses perched on the rocks to cottages with sea and garden views nestled among the trees, and finally to private pool villas further up.

There's an organically shaped, stone-lined pool overlooking the ocean, the restaurant and bar "The Cape," which grows some of its own herbs, and a massage hut. The resort is happy to arrange private snorkeling trips around the island in a longtail boat, as well as yoga and cooking classes. Guests praise the breakfast, service, and tranquility, but note that there are many stairs between the rooms, the restaurant, and the pool, and that dinner is rather expensive.

It's ideal for couples looking for a place to relax. Chalok's restaurants and dive centers are just a short walk around the bay.

    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.
