Anantara Koh Yao Yai Resort & Villas Reviews

The island resort was perfect for a getaway, it is peaceful and the staff were very friendly and welcoming

The service is so good that it is touching. The room facilities are new, the scenery is beautiful, the public area facilities are complete, the breakfast is rich, the beach is delicate, the sea view is very unique, suitable for all ages, it is the best choice for family travel

The hotel is relatively new, having opened last year. It has Chinese services and the hotel staff are quite enthusiastic. There are also several restaurants on the island that have good food. It is a hotel worth recommending. Their group has a chain of five-star resort hotels in Thailand and around the world.

We booked a Ctrip package and stayed for 4 nights during the rainy season, which almost included the hotel. There were very few guests. The experience was great. 3-4 nights is enough, and it would be boring if we stayed longer. Transportation 4 points: slightly inconvenient, after all, it is on an outlying island, and there are only 4 boat trips a day. Fortunately, we connected with the flight. If the flight was delayed, we might have to wait for a long time. Environment and facilities 5 points: newly opened in 22 years, the basic room is 90 square meters, medium size, and the hotel is not far away. The sea water is not very blue, it belongs to the mudflat type, there are local ghost crabs, the waves are very small, you can go to tread water, and the beach has different forms according to the tide, which is a bit interesting. Surroundings 3 points: Eating in the surrounding area, except for the CHILL CHILL restaurant 1.3 kilometers away, you can call the boss lady for free pick-up. If you want to go to other places, you need to rent a motorcycle. Otherwise, you can eat at the hotel. The buffet restaurant is not open in the off-season. The beach restrant tastes very good, but the price is a bit expensive. It would be best if there is a discount on dining. Service 5 points: Really warm, they greet you from the bottom of their hearts when they see you. Our English is average, but they are not tired of communicating with you. When negotiating the breakfast issue, the manager directly exempted the 4-year-old child from 4 nights of breakfast, which was a surprise. Activity facilities 4 points: There are not many activities, the kids club closes at 18:00, and there are almost no activities at night. I hope this will be improved. Finally, I would like to praise Ctrip. Due to the inconsistency between the catering content of the package and the hotel, they gave a 10% discount on the room rate after communication, and the handling result is satisfactory.

Advantages 1. The room balcony faces the sea, the facilities are very new, and the hotel is very beautiful. 2. The staff is well trained and the overall service is satisfactory. 3. The breakfast is delicious, a combination of buffet and ordering. Disadvantages 1. The speedboat from Phuket to the island is very rare and very crowded. 2. There is no public transportation on the island, and you need to rent a motorcycle to travel, which is not very convenient. 3. There are few entertainment activities on the island. The hotel has some activities, but the staff did not introduce them, so it is not particularly clear. Recommended for people who like quietness and are not in a hurry~

There are not many restaurants to choose from, but the food in the main restaurant tastes good and the breakfast is quite rich. I feel that the speedboat arranged after check-out could be more organized. It should be possible to arrange the luggage to be transported to the destination port in advance, so that there is no need to wait for the luggage when you arrive at the port.

I didn't notice it was an island hotel: 14-year-old children need to pay 1,200 baht for boat rides. Children over 4 years old need to pay 770 baht for breakfast. I was told that this is a must, a group feature, and it can be waived if you don't follow other hotels. I tried two SPAs and they were both newbies, and each person was 1,000. Thai food is OK, 300 per person. Western pizza is not good, lamb chops are OK, 500 per person. Japanese food is still fresh, but it is a bar design, which is not conducive to many people ordering dishes. The price is quite expensive, and it costs more than 1,000 per person to eat a full meal.

Everything is good. Suitable for families.

The room is very big, and the bunk bed is loved by the kids. The breakfast is bad, and there are few proteins except eggs. The kid who is allergic to eggs ate sausage for three days. During the National Day, I wanted to have a lobster buffet to harvest Chinese leeks, but I underestimated the fighting power of Chinese people. The seafood plates were empty from 6 o'clock to 9 o'clock, and basically they were all gone. Moreover, it was not consistent with the pictures. The lobster was not Australian lobster or blue lobster. I don't know what it is. The seafood only has tiger prawns, squid and fish meat, but it costs 1900🐷🙄. It's terrible. The housekeeping is extremely slow. The green light started at 9 o'clock in the morning, but it was not cleaned at 13 o'clock. I called and urged him for an hour, but he didn't come. At 2 o'clock, the kid couldn't hold it anymore. I called and got angry, and someone came to clean the room. I had a spa, the price is comparable to Shanghai five-star hotels, but that's fine. It's not as comfortable as LANN, but that's fine. What's most disappointing is that after the spa, my friend and I wanted to lie down, and after chatting for 5 minutes, he came to urge us to leave! I was really drunk, and we didn't lie there for an hour. Anyway, the overall feeling was not good.

We booked a family room, which was very comfortable with a great view. However, we were not satisfied with the lunch and dinner package for three reasons: first, there were only two restaurants available, second, many dishes on the menu could not be ordered, and third, drinks and water were not included in the package, which was unreasonable.

Beautiful rooms, beautiful gardens, very good atmosphere. The disadvantage is that you have to take a boat to Koh Yao Yai. The hotel only has a boat service from Phuket. None from Krabi The restaurant in the hotel has inconsistent prices and taste.

The experience is very good. The hotel is very new, with complete facilities and beautiful scenery. The only drawback is the catering. The types of catering are not very rich. The taste, especially the bread, is average. The service is also very good. I will come again.

The bunk bed is very suitable for families with two children. The slide pool and the children's activity room ocean ball are suitable for parents and children. The hotel is relatively new as a whole and has a good design. The swimming pool in the front area is very quiet and suitable for honeymoon families. The villa is also very good and is the first choice with no budget limit. The only flaw is that the water quality of Yao Ya Island is average. There is no sea and only tidal flats during low tide at 5 or 6 o'clock. From 3 to 4 o'clock in the morning, you can play on the beach and tread water. Surrounding restaurants such as Chill Chill are cheap and good. The Japanese restaurant in the hotel is relatively expensive and the dishes are very average. I don't recommend it. The beach restaurant tastes good, but the seafood platter costs more than 1,000. The seafood is average and seems to be frozen, so be careful when ordering it. Regarding the speedboat issue, the hotel's official website shows that a three-night reservation includes a speedboat. I also booked a three-night reservation with Ctrip and no money was charged, so I'm not sure whether Ctrip's booking package includes the speedboat fee. It would be best if Ctrip could write it clearly in the reservation. After all, the official website reservation website The speed is very slow, but it is very convenient if you are used to Ctrip.

We booked a room with direct access to the pool. There was no problem for a family of four to stay. There were four types of water slides on the platform, which the children especially liked. The breakfast was also delicious. Because we had to take a boat to the island, we had to pay the boat fee separately for adults, which was 1200🐖. There was an exclusive reception room for the hotel at the pier, which was air-conditioned and provided drinks and snacks. The hotel facilities were good and it was worth staying again. It was just that there was a lack of Chinese waiters, and many people could not speak Chinese. There were still many Chinese people here.
