Very good service for very reasonable price. Nice beach, massage service, good food. Friendly atmosphere.
We had a wonderful stay at Coral View! We loved the seclusion of the hotel from the busy and more active area and with the hotel offering shuttle service at a very reasonable price, we were able to visit the more active areas of Koh Tao! A perfect balance for what we needed from our stay on the island! The views were stunning and the staff were incredible! Only recommendation is bring a water shoe to wear on the beach as there is loads of shells and coral and it would make walking on the beach much more enjoyable. The water was so wonderful to be in and the snorkeling was a success!
Unfortunate when we checked in our room has flies everywhere. We had to wait for the cleaner to come in and remove them. And even then we had to share the next theee nights with flies. They had no spray to kill them.
Finding our best covered in flies did not leave us feeling very happy. However, lovely property and location.
elizabeth.partnerJan 23, 2023 This is a wonderful resort and highly recommend it! Staff very helpful to tourist. Beautiful view of beach area that was very close to our room. Free breakfast with chef that made eggs to your taste. Free snorkels to guest. My first time out, I saw a beautiful big turtle over the coral reefs. We stayed 9 days and loved every minute. Prices are affordable for lunch and dinner and outdoor to hear beach waves and night to star gaze at all the constellations ( clarity was fabulous!)
Beautiful quiet spot, with friendly, helpful staff. Highly recommend!
A Great Resort with Wonderful Staff
We stayed at Coral View Resort for 9 nights, and it was one of the best stays we've ever had at any resort. The staff are very friendly and helpful, the food at the restaurant is fairly priced and tastes good, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the location is spectacular.
I really can't say enough good things about our stay at Coral View Resort. The location is far away from the main port, so it was fairly isolated, which is what we wanted. The resort was under some renovation during our stay, so there weren't many people there and the beach bar was closed, but that didn't take away from the loveliness of our stay. Aye, the shuttle driver, was extraordinarily accommodating and friendly and was one of the high points of our stay. The beach, which was a 2 minute walk from our bungalow, was absolutely gorgeous, and the water is crystal-clear with plenty of fish to view while snorkeling. There's a resort right next to Coral View, so there was a lot of cross-interaction with the people staying there, which was nice.
Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Coral View Resort to anyone looking for a great getaway.
After a few days on Ko Samui, the coral View resort was a welcome sight. Very relaxed feel, and extremely friendly staff. The room was exactly what we had expected, clean and comfortable. The only issue we had was with some noisy neighbours for one night. Lucky for us they moved to another unit.
The vibe at the bar/restaurant was the perfect chill vibe we were looking for, and the food was decently priced and good.
The diving wasn’t as good as we hoped for but that was the weathers fault not the resort. Though there are a few suggestions for the scuba shop. That being said it was the relaxed diving we needed not the over crowded vibe of the main town scuba shops boats.
verified t.partnerSep 27, 2019 Staying at the Coral view resort was quiet amazing. When you have breakfast, you can enjoy a breathtaking view every morning. beautiful sea and a cozy room.. almost everything will satisfy you wish a perfect holiday. Some facility was a little bit old, but still attractive.
Great snorkelling. Nice restaurant especially Burmese green tea salad and vegetarian options. Nice staff. Rooms a bit dated but comfortable. Good wifi, no television but beautiful views and spacious balcony. Right on beach.
Peace of paradise right next to the beach
We ended up and stayed there for ten nights and had a great time. The staff is amazing and extremely friendly and helpful, the food is great, the restaurant is cozy, the beach is beautiful and quiet. The perfect place for a relaxing holiday on Koh Tao.
coral view-slice of paradise
it was an amazing spot,fantastic snorkling,beautiful beach,friendly staff.
We we're able to snorkel or lounge all day at a near private beach and eat delicious and reasonably priced food. Friendly staff, too!
After spent 3 nights at coral view and seven nights total on Koh Tao. I have found Sai Daeng beach to be my favorite. The resort is quiet and has this calmness to it. Great place to get away and relax. There is also a dive shop run by an English guy that only do small group, we saw a whale shark at shark island right in front of the bay.
Beautiful position, basic lodgings
Great position for a quiet stay, great snorkelling straight off beach ( sand is crushed coral , hard on feet especially getting in / out of water. No TV, NO phone coverage internet ok. Difficult terrain for anyone with mobility issues, lots of steep stairs, and pathways. Resort is a long way from main township. Taxi 500 baht to get home at night.
Great place to relax at the beach. Not for those that want the Club scene. Once your here you wont want to leave. Real nice staff, good food and Beach Bar.
Close to lovely beach / quiet / good food
Unfortunately the dive boat was being fixed as it was low season so we couldn't go diving from the resort. That was a shame as it was one of the reasons we picked this resort. It would have been nice if they advertised this clearly on their website.
The food at the restaurant was yum. Wouldn't recommend the breakfast though just the lunch and dinner menu.
Quiet and peaceful. Not far from town centre via resort taxi or walking.
The good:
1. The receptionist is very polite and helpful
2. The reception lounge offers best view of the bay, very nice.
3. It offers three free hammocks and a wooden swing which attracts my kids for sure.
The room is a bit outdated, the bed does not look so clean and towels and sheets are old. The room is very dim-lit.
The food is ok. Price is probably 50% higher than the pier.
The charge to rent a life jacket is 100 baht per-person per day, by far the most expensive place to rent a life jacket in Koh Tao, although the life-jacket itself costs only 300 baht if you buy from the pier. And they don't have kids life-jacket, which in most cases, that is what is needed. All other places we went rented for 50 baht per day with better size selections.
The reef nearby is not so beautiful at all if you plan to snorkel there.
So we ended up paying the most for renting the life-jackets but seeing the least underwater.
It was a nice hotel close to the beach.
We were picked up at the pier which was unexpected, when we arrived and checked in the manager gave us a upgrade right on the beach, the room was lovely. The snorkelling out front of the hotel was great, I saw 3 sharks.
Nice place, suboptimal location
We had a great stay at the resort however it is really far from everything. Taxis are very expensive and riding bikes up and down the massive hills leading to coral view isn't the best idea. Because of this,we were limited to eating at the resort which had overpriced and only okay food. The beach is decent though and the room was very nice, however!
Lovely Stay - Great Snorkelling
Stayed here for two nights in December. 2015! Had a really nice time! Was very relaxing and the snorkelling was absolutely amazing! So many fish and the water was incredibly clear! Staff were super friendly and a couple of them lived in America so had perfect English! Only downside was the Internet was slow and there was no phone reception as behind a mountain and I needed it to work, but really if I wasn't working I wouldn't have cared as the place is so gorgeous! :)
