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.

We stayed here for 3 nights. The hotel is far enough away from the main street to allow quiet. It is close to dining and activities. The sunsets are spectacular.

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.

Nothing unique about it. They’re polite but not all that accommodating. Nothing really horrible but nothing great

Perfection in every way!

Posted 29 Jun 2018 on Hotels
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

Posted 30 May 2018 on Hotels
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

Posted 18 Feb 2018
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.
