I called it a “luxury hostel”, amazing mattress, blanket… super nice hang out area with many cozy places to sit and chill… the best local recommendations for all the things to do in Ko Tao… the owners are absolutely lovely… and somehow the hostel attracts other like-minded travellers who are into sports and nature… (and not super young and only partying)… best place I’ve stayed at in Thailand!

I had a large private room and can't say enough good things about this place. Great staff, great value for money, excellent breakfast, incredible free daily activities with free shuttle, perfect location and sparkling clean. The pool was the best pool that I have ever swam in at a hotel. It was sooooo immaculately clean and large and was great for laying out and tanning. About 50% of guests end up extending their stay here and we did this as well. Great, social atmosphere without being a party hostel. Room tip: Book room 201 for large size, lots of sun and large windows

All hostels in Ko Tao

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

Beds were comfy, the common area/restaurant is a great opportunity to meet people. The staff is international and very social and accommodating. The owner hosts weekly events like movie nights or bbq, even though it’s a social hostel it wasn’t loud at night. When i first arrived i was handed a towel and allowed to shower, even though I arrived way before my check-in. Daily cleaning of the dorms. Perfect hostel for backpackers or anyone who wants to meet new people!

The owners as so lovely and so helpful. Beds were comfortable and clean and private. Facilities were great. Free tea and coffee and a fridge. Lovely little balcony area and in a great location, close to everything. Everything about this hostel is perfect. Safe and secure too with key fobs to enter the room.
