First time to review the hotel. Let's talk about the hotel's good location right on the beach! The beach is across the pool! Corals and shells on the beach! In the morning, the ebb tide time is not suitable for diving into the sea. After 2 pm, you can go to the sea. If you can swim a little farther, you can find a lot of sea urchins. It is very fun! This island is really original, quiet and suitable for family vacations! The locals of the hotel are also very kind and warm to the Chinese! The day before check-out will also ask if you need to make an appointment to send the car to the dock. The price is also reasonable! Let ’s talk about the hotel hardware. I really bought Karma. The room for 1,000 yuan a night is very small. There is no toilet. No comb and toothbrush. Go to the front desk to buy a toothbrush. 150 baht. A toothbrush. I can see a lot of geckos eating on the wall outside. We ate two meals left at the two restaurants outside the hotel. The most unacceptable thing is that since there is no alcohol in the outside restaurant, it is said that only the hotel buys alcohol. 7-11 is far from the hotel and did not buy alcohol! Monopolize all, how powerful this hotel owner is. We bought enough snacks on Phuket before going to the island, instant noodles and drinks on the island! If you want to go, you must be prepared or you will spend a lot of money in the hotel. Anyway, except for the beach, it ’s really not good!

The hotel is well-equipped with nearly 100 small independent villas. The infinity pool is amazing. The staff are very polite and nice. You can book sea tours directly at the hotel. The tour guide Toby is very nice. The price is reasonable and can be included in the room fee. In addition Be sure to try eating in the hotel restaurant, the prices are cheap and the food is of high quality! The only uncomfortable thing is that the bedding in the room is hard and damp, and there are paper towels thrown by previous guests in the bedside table that have not been cleaned. Overall, it should be the best hotel experience in the same price range on Changchun Island. However, it should be noted that the boat terminal suggested by Ctrip is wrong, it will take a long time, and it is easy to be deceived by scalpers at the port. It is recommended to follow Google Map directly. The hotel phone number provided by Ctrip is also unreachable. You can use Google Map Found the correct phone number.

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.

Such a wonderful spot and lovely hotel. The beach is beautiful, we enjoyed lazing on the loungers overlooking the water. The pool is large and the simple water slide is fun to try out! There's an easy flow between the beach, pool and hotel with pleasant areas to sit and enjoy the view.

Such a lovely place, such a lovely face! Can see amazing sunrise from the terrace, nice garden, private beach, terrific services, hospitable owner, wonderful 3 days spent there. Will come back again! PS: the hotel owner provides car pickup and delivery services, they make sure your boat has arrived before they leave the dock.

We are a group of 8, so we booked a few rooms plus a 3 bedroom pool villa good for our group. Pool in the villa is large but there are a lot of mosquitoes. That does affect the time we spend outdoors. We stay safe indoors by keeping the doors and windows shut most times and turn on the air conditioning. ( they should do some regular fogging as the mosquitoes situation are really bad and we all got bitten on arrival ) Good selection of movies. Spacious 2 storeys villa with plenty of seats for talking and eating. Breakfast in the La Sirena Restaurant has a decent selection with a la carte choice for egg dish and buffet for the pastries/ fruits / drinks and cheese. We try the on site Thai restaurant which is above average especially the mango sticky rice. Overall a decent stay if they can control the mosquitoes situation.

This was our second stay at Thiwson. We stayed at the Deluxe Beach Front Villa ( room # A2) and it is definitely worth the extra money. Amazing view and a jacuzzi. Daily house keeping and really nice but basic breakfast. The staff is very friendly and helpful and always ready to help if you need anything. The restaurant is really great and cheap. We can’t recommend enough and we will probably be back.

Just returned after 5 days at this little gem in Thailand. From the moment we arrived we were met by most helpful staff who could not do enough to please. We had a delightful well appointed bungalow within 50m of the sea with uninterrupted views of the sea and islands. Caroline and Mederic were the resort managers with Mederic, trained in Michelin star restaurants, heading up the catering. His expertise certainly showed with a fantastic sunset meal in the Tent up the hill behind the resort that lived up to his Michelin training!! We had trips to the islands in a longtail boat to ourselves with swimming, snorkelling and picnic. In all an excellent holiday that lived upto and beyond our expectations!!

We are so happy we chose to stay at SAM SAM and Koh Yao Noi! This hotel is a unique experience, full of beautiful art, kind and attentive staff, beautiful grounds with views of the surrounding jungle hills, and tucked away from the rest of the town. Each villa/suite seems to be incredibly private which I think is hard to find in other hotels. The basics are covered: breakfasts were delicious, beds comfortable, great AC, everything you expect from a nice hotel, but there were many extras as well! From the nice gym to the dojo to the scooter and bike rental to the table tennis, and more including many experiences. They booked all of our travel from our previous hotel in Phuket, to our next hotel in Krabi. It’s nice to feel cared for like this! We will be daydreaming about Koh Yao Noi and our time at SAM SAM until we are able to return again! Highly recommended!
