Balconies overlooking the garden or courtyard give Blue Wave House an outdoor extension to its rooms. A coffee shop and shared lounge invite a pause, with Mae Haad Beach close enough to visit on foot.

Sitting areas and in-room microwaves make Matina a practical place for a few days on Koh Tao. An à la carte breakfast and shared terrace add to the stay, with a shuttle service available for getting around.
A pool bar and sun terrace give Aiya a relaxed daytime setting near Sairee Beach. Balconies and pool- or mountain-facing rooms carry the surroundings indoors, and the tour desk can help plan island outings.
Floor-to-ceiling windows and modern Thai furnishings distinguish Tanote Villa's hillside accommodation. Private balconies extend the living space, while the sea-facing restaurant serves Thai and European dishes beside a garden and outdoor pool.
