The owner and the rest of the staff were all super welcoming. Had a wonderful stay at the lodge. The rooms are so beautiful. The location is great, 5min from the nightlife by moto, yet far enough to be in a quiet area away from parties, and 20min walking from the best beaches. The lodge proposed activities (I can recommend the Premium snorkling trip with Oxygen) and gives great tips for your sray on the island.

Easily one of the best hostels (if not the best) I’ve stayed at. You can really see how much the owner cares about the communal experience. The daily shuttle to the beach/ sunset spot is great and reliable. One time the owner brought me alone to the beach on his scooter, even tho no one else was going. The staff seem to clean the place multiple times a day. If feedback is given about anything, they action it immidietely (ex.someone complained about the curtains being too bright and the mattress being too hard so they got new curtains & mattresses) I was lucky to meet amazing people while I was staying there. The place attracts respectable yet fun crowd. Many of the people were doing diving courses - Scuba Shack is walking distance from the hostel. It was easy to connect with everyone due to only 2 rooms and a welcoming, family-style common area. Beds & facilities all in great condition. Mini-breakfast consisting of eggs, toast, butter & jam is provided. Filter coffee & tea as well. Overall I loved staying in this place and I would gladly be back :)

Perfect Island Getaway – Stunning Views & Incredible Hosts! 🌴✨ I can’t recommend Villa Mar highly enough! Located on the peaceful southern end of Koh Tao, this villa feels like a private slice of paradise — far enough from the crowds to truly unwind, yet still close enough to great beaches and restaurants. The views are absolutely breathtaking — every morning we woke up to sweeping ocean panoramas that looked straight out of a postcard. Watching the sunset from the terrace was pure magic. The villa itself is beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. What really made our experience special were the hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, offering great local recommendations and always being just a message away. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel completely at home.

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!
