Koh Tao Hillside Resort

The view

Ridiculous steep roads and stairs, only the young and super fit could stay there comfortably, we had to check out early as it was havoc on my knees and legs to even get to the restaurant to go eat

The views from the sea front bungalows were stunning. The jetty is good for jumping into the sea for a quick dip. Free beach towels provided by the pool.

The resort is quite far from town and taxis are expensive on the island. The rooms are basic with only one power socket and in need of refurbishment. The power cuts off between 12 and 14 because the generator “needs maintenance”, which causes the fridges to leak and air con to be off when you get back. The rooms are also a pain to walk up and down to as the hill is very steep. Tried to order food on the first day which we waited for until they came back twenty 20 minutes later and said the chef was sick.

Nice view beautiful sunset. It is a million dollar view, no kidding.

Not suitable for those who wants comfortability because you have to walk up and down the hill to get to the room the slope of the hill is suffering even for us who do a lot of exercise, it takes around 15 mins to walk up. You have to walk by your own because golf cart is only serviced for check in and check out. Golf cart broke down so often like every day as we saw it, when checked out, we had to walk up hill with staff by our own.
