This is the second time that I have stayed at Ananda Villa while in Koh Tao. I like that it is nice and close to the dive shop that I dive with, that it is in the quieter part of town, super close to the ferry (no taxi needed), so many great places to eat in the area and of course endless options for a good massage plus the staff are super friendly and helpful. The only thing that I don't like is that there isn't really anywhere to sit on their beach... there isn't access to chairs/lounges - which is the downfall. They have a beautiful spot with a beautiful view and you can't really enjoy it unless you bring along your towel and find a spot and take a seat on the stairs. There is a place to sit and relax if you participate in the services of the restaurant - Breeze - wish this was different!

Convenient and good value

The location was perfect for us - right next to our dive shop and the pier. I think it’s great value for the money. Staff was nice and allowed us to store our bags after checkout before we moved on.

*Amazing customer service received from receptionist - switched rooms to newer building for stronger A/C *Tip: request upstairs corner room with ocean view Laundry service was excellent and same price as anywhere nearby. We stayed 5 nights to dive with Master Divers (short walk down the street) and would happily stay again.

Would stay here again

We really enjoyed our stay at Ananda. The staff was helpful and the location was great. We were just a two-minute walk from the ferry and close to the main street with shops and restaurants. The room was large and comfortable.

Tolle Anlage, nette Gastgeber,gepflegter Strand

Super Aufenthalt! Ganz tolle Gastgeber. Man kann das Hotel in 2 Minuten zu Fuß vom Pier erreichen. Alles notwendige in der Nähe. Einzige Minuspunkte: die Bar ist ein wenig laut, allerdings nur bis ca 23 Uhr und die Dusche hätte etwas mehr Wasserdruck drauf haben können. Sind aber minimale Mankos, wir kommen wieder!

ロンプラヤの船着場から歩いて3分ほどの好立地にある。周囲にはレストラン、マッサージ店が充実。目の前はビーチだが、水は綺麗ではない。船着場となっているため騒がしくもある。いろいろなツアーの発着点となっている船着場なので便利。従業員は大変感じがよく親切。部屋は広く快適。ベッドも広く快適。夜は波の音が聞こえる。エアコンの効きも良い。シャワーのお湯も問題ない。部屋にセーフティボックスはないが、フロントにはある。のんびり過ごすより、街歩きを楽しんだりツアーに参加する方にはお勧めできる。

ビーチと船着き場が至近

ラクジュアリーホテルではないが、部屋は明るく清潔で広く、ビーチは目の前。周りにもレストランやマッサージ屋が何件もあって便利。ビーチ沿いに歩いていけば、サイリービーチにも１５分くらいで行ける。島を朝６時のフェリーで出発しなければいけなかったので、船着き場の近くの宿をと思ってここにしたけれど、やっぱりそうしてよかった。船着き場まで徒歩２分。よい宿でした。

Perfection in every way!

I have been traveling for over a month visiting many locations throughout Asia. My trip to Koh Tao was spectacular and Ananda Villa was a big part of that reason. It’s proximity to the pier makes it so convenient to find and the atmosphere it projects makes you feel like you are light years away from the pier. The staff is amazing because they do everything to ensure you have a friendly, peaceful and relaxing stay. Inside the rooms are very nice. They are extremely clean, supplied with thoughtful “extra amenities (beach towels, umbrellas, etc), spacious and most room if not all have a partial view of the beach. The “vibe” has f the hotel is one of tranquility, which made my stay completely amazing. Thank you!

Room with a view

This hotel was fantastic!! The view from my room was amazing and I wish I could have stayed longer! The staff were friendly and helpful. I like staying at this side of town vs Sairee Beach - a little quieter and close to the dive shop I was with. I will definitely stay here again when I return to Koh Tao

Gorgeous hotel on the beach

I absolutely loved my all-too-short stay here. I was able to check in several hours early which is always a good start. The staff were really friendly and helpful. My room was large, bright, well-furnished and spotless with a spacious balcony with a brilliant view of the beach. I love that they provide beach blankets, a tote bag, laundry basket and a torch. Breeze restaurant next door serve good food although the menu was not extensive. It is right on the beach. Pranee's kitchen on the other side of the hotel served very tasty and reasonably priced Thai food. There are also many other places just walking distance down the small side streets.

Friendly staff, close to pier and dive schools

This hotel is literally the first hotel on the beach next to the ferry pier. It was super convenient because we didn’t have to pay taxi fare to to and from town. The staff was friendly and the room was spotless. Cleaning staff was cleaning all day, including the windows and stairwell. The beach directly in front of the hotel was not great to swim in as a dive school has buoys set up for students to practice, but there’s a nice quiet beach area 0.2 miles up the beach.
