Very friendly staff, good room service, privacy at the villas are good. Calm surroundings. We loved to be there. Beautiful view. Close to the best beaches which are located east and south east. Motorbike is recommended. Very clean, modern and high quality villas and private pool. We were lucky as we could check-in earlier on our arrival, thank you again for this Mae Ya team!

This hostel is absolutely fantastic! The owners and staff are incredibly warm and helpful – you feel welcome from the very first moment. I had so many lovely conversations, and I felt completely at home throughout my stay. It’s the perfect balance between social and relaxed – definitely not a party hostel, but still vibrant and friendly. The terrace with the comfy bean bags was my personal highlight! Everything is spotless, the beds are super comfortable, and the overall atmosphere is just so inviting. A truly great hostel that I’d return to anytime! Highly recommend!

That's what a hostel should ideally would be! Super clean, organized and spacious. There are only two rooms (dorms) but they feel quite private, with all the curtains, lights and shelves for you. The mattress are massive, bigger than mine at home! The whole staff is amazing and smiley 😁 I would like to give a special mention to Phyu, she made my stay perfect and everyone loves her. Also, they offer a free shuttle for different parts of the island everyday. Extremely easy to make friends. Location is perfect for me, it's far enough to be quiet and close enough to the town, restaurant and parties, if you like. A literal 10/10 hostel, booked for 2 nights and stayed for a whole week.

I had a wonderful stay at the Mar Ozo Hotel. The girls at reception were so nice, kind, and extremely helpful, which made check-in a very pleasant experience. The rooms were spotless and well-maintained, with a really nice bathroom and very comfortable beds. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and there was always hot water available. I also appreciated the little details like water in the fridge and being well taken care of while waiting for the room to be ready. Overall, an excellent stay – highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review Hike Time Koh Tao Hostel is an absolute gem on the island. Super chill atmosphere, clean rooms, and great value for money. The location is perfect — tucked away enough to get peace and quiet, but still close to the beaches, cafes

The room was very clean and new. Big beds and a good ac. Also there were clean bathrooms, good showers and a top location. The staff was pretty cool and super chill. The owner cooked for us and gave us good recommendation on what to do on the Island. All in all it felt like a little family and like a second home. 10/10 experience 👍
