Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Koh Yao Yai

The resort is beautiful, it is very well kept and has a nice landscaping. The food was good. I had a nice private pool, the beach was calm and the pools were clean. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The SPA was great but can get a little expensive.

Lovely facility good tasting food bed was really nice big spacious bathrooms cleaning was spot on . Private pool and common pool maintenance was really good

We got a free upgrade to a private pool villa, which was unexpected but so fantastic. We overlooked the garden and it was idyllic. I liked the beachfront, the restaurants, the breakfast was extensive, and the staff were friendly.

The grand villa with sea view is fantastic, wit a big private pool. The AI meals are fine the people are kind

It is great value for money, private pool villa is amazing.

Absolutely beautiful - water was so warm to swim-private pool was great- all the tours were excellent and the transport was uneventful and stress free! Food was amazing especially the breakfast! Staff was the best always happy and accommodating!

Beautiful resort, well organized, a life-time experience. We stayed in the villa with private pool, total privacy except our toddler with us lol

Gorgeous hotel. Rooms were so spacious and well appointed. The villa with the private pool was exceptional

Amazing hotel and astonishing staff, very friendly and very helpful, car shuttle was perfect 24/7 whenever needed I stayed in a villa with a private pool it was like paradise

Everything was absolutely exceptional. Absolute privacy, excellent food, swimming in private pool, beautiful beach, clean sea, friendly staff. Definitely the best place (Koh Yao Yai is not yet so affected by mass tourism as for example Phi Phi, where the mass of tourists is repulsive) and hotel I have ever been to. The whole family enjoyed the stay very much and we will be back. P.S. I love the traditional Thai style, the whole resort is very traditional.

The location was amazing looking out onto the sea. Breakfast was fabulous, so much variety. The room with the private pool was so spacious and clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly at all times

Such a nice hotel, great location, nice room, and friendly staff. We had a private pool room, the room was open and bright. The restaurant food was good and cocktails were yum!

Lovely private pool villa, good resort, great staff and good food. Easy walk to other restaurants.

Very nice hotel, superbly located facing a heavenly bay. Very welcoming and caring staff. The service and the equipment are of high quality. The villa with private pool is very well decorated and offers a lot of privacy. The breakfast is excellent and varied. To advise for a paranthesis of luxury and voluptuousness on an island which really deserves to be discovered.

We had a private pool villa which was amazing The staff were so polite and helpful The hotel and rooms were very French and beautiful The views were amazing Situated in the best part of the island We had the hotel transfers each way. While it cost a little bit more, the convenience and safety was worth it.

Everything was amazing. Paradise! Room and terrace with plunge pool completely private The highlight or our holiday. Room service food and cocktails were fantastic!

Lovely isolated position on the island Excellent service Attention to detail Beautiful surroundings Amazing room(deluxe plunge pool)

stunning setting on a private secluded beach. amazing sea views from our room with private pool. the beach front was lovely and staff all friendly and helpful. lots of games to play too like table tennis, badminton, darts. the happy hour was brilliant!

Located on a beautiful beach with stunning views, set on the edge of the jungle. We had a room with a plunge pool which was perfect for cooling down in. The staff were wonderful and really helpful.

Beautiful beach, friendly staff, amazing room with a plunge pool (worth splurging on this!), nice lounge chairs. Good variety of restaurant food & drinks. Happy hour was nice everyday right on the beach.

Fantastic location, right on the beach. Lovely rooms, some with their own pool/plunge pool.

The staff were so accommodating. Absolutely everyone we met was lovely. It’s a smaller resort between two larger ones. And especially enjoyed the personal pool we had. We did enjoy the restaurant very much especially the Indian food.

Wonderful peaceful place, we loved the facilities and our boat villa with a small private pool. The staff was very helpful and kind and the food was great.

Beautifully maintained small beachside hotel on a gorgeous bay with calm swimmable water. We stayed in a beachfront villa with pool access which was magical. Excellent customer service and a lovely restaurant. Highly recommend.

right on the beachfront with amazing caring staff our villa had a clean private pool you don’t need to leave the resort

loved the location, the layout of the private pool villa. the bungalow style was very “one with nature” while having all the convenience and luxury of a 5 star resort.

A stunning beachfront hotel with private villas each with a private pool. Unlike other resorts, what made the experience so special was the friendly and competent staff. Great getaway spot.

The property was amazing. We had a villa with our own private pool on the beach. Absolutely a must to visit.

Very nice property. very calm. The villas with private pool are amazing. staying on a small island was wonderful. All transportations were very well organized by the staff. Highly recommended for family who seeks a quite place in Phuket.

For a resort that is 20+ years old I thought it was very well maintained. Obviously, there are signs of wear, but none that take from the resorts quality of stay. The room size, private pool and location were amazing. We had just enough view of the ocean with pirvacy to satisfy!! There are 3 restaurants on the island all with substantial choices for dinning. I was really impressed with the lunch menu at the rum Chapel! We never had a meal we didn't enjoy at any location.

I liked everything. Clean, very nice and romantic place. We stayed there with small kids and really enjoyed our private pool. Also the big pool is so clean and refreshing. One of my favourite place. Would highly recommend it. To get around, we rented scooters, was really handy.

great location with beautiful surroundings. The rooms are lovely and the private pool is a lovely addition. The main pool is also a good size with comfortable loungers. Food was delicious too and the staff were really friendly and helpful. I’d definitely go back.

The property was quiet and comfortable, and the rooms were lovely. We loved the private pool and the main pool. The setting is beautiful. Breakfast was good - fresh eggs and fruit were good. Housekeeping was great.

Only 5 minutes from the pier. The location is so very secluded, quiet and peaceful, all you can hear is the wildlife. We booked a room with it's own private pool, stunning. It was a great experience and we were sad to leave

Private pool is a nice temperature and clean. Staff are great and friendly organised transfers to the pier. Rented bikes for 250 bhat per day. Good location. Breakfast is good. Rooms nice and clean, good aircon good bathrooms

Nice location, private pool with great views and close to the beach which has a nice beach bar / restaurant and a pool which you can also use. great breakfast with very kind lady.

Such friendly staff, made it so easy to hire a bike which you need to get around the island, had a lovely private pool and they even arranged the boat to Phuket and transfer, tv had Netflix aswell

The room was spacious with a private pool and sea view. The breakfast was superb with local thai foods and other items too. The scooter can be hired from the hotel itself at a reasonable price.

Villa with private pool is amazing. Would definately book again. Outside shower, very spacious, comfy beds. And the breakfast is just wonderful. Great choice of European and Thai food, amazing view over the ocean! Highly recommended!

Excellent resort with really friendly and helpful staff We upgraded our room so we could have have a private pool Very tasty and well priced food in the resort's restaurant

Beutiful beachfront location, I stayed in a villa with a plunge pool for a week it was very clean and the staff were very nice and helpful. The island is very quiet perfect if you want to relax and enjoy the scenery, I will definitely be returning.

The place really is phenomenal! The friendliest staff that is always here to help you. We enjoyed the private pool many times and almost always had dinner in their sea side restaurant which is so good! Highlights recommend the whole snapper sweet and sour.

Luxury interior space with lots of room, private pool, and deck with fantastic view of the ocean. This place is outstanding in so many ways! Option for motorbike rental, included excellent breakfast at the beach every morning, and service was top notch.

Stunning location, really enjoyed the private pool. Food was some of the best we had in Thailand. Great base for exploring the island and surrounding islands. The villas are a good size and staff welcoming. Rented scooter from over the road.

We had a magical three nights in a villa with a private pool. The area is quiet and calm, with a fantastic restaurant right next to the beach.

An amazing location and room, the view and the private pool are perfect..sadly if you are coming with kids the sofa bed that is noted on the size is actually a beanbag .. so this might be a slight issue.

SamSam was a complete delight. A wonderful resort where attention to detail is a priority. The entire SamSam team was wonderful. Golf, the operations manager, was stellar. She ensured our every request was met in a kind and gracious manner - even driving to pick up our favorite Thai Iced Coffees so that we could enjoy them poolside. The resort is beautiful, the villas are well cared for and offer wonderful views. The private pool at the TreeHouse was a highlight. Highly recommend.

Beautiful small and exclusive resort in a perfect location. The villa Honglek was amazing with a wonderful private pool and the best views. Even without a private pool this place would be fantastic as the communal pool which was huge was rarely in use by other guests. Perfect location for getting to beaches and restaurants ( even on foot). We hired mopeds from the hotel and easily explored most of the island with very little traffic. The staff were amazing and organised our journey home leaving SamSam at 05.45 and arriving back in the UK at 8pm. I would highly recommend a private long tail from the pier rather than speedboat taxi - costs more but worth the experience. Great food, beautiful bird life and wonderful people - the Thailand of 20 years ago - unspoilt by mass tourism.

We’ve been to Koh Yao Noi 3 times now and this was always somewhere we wanted to stay. Due to it being April the rates had almost halved in price. It’s in a great location by Pasai Beach, you can hire scooters through the hotel so perfect for exploring. They picked us up from the pier in a huge truck! The room was huge, great aircon, comfy bed, and the bathroom was amazing the shower could fit 8 people! Breakfast was picked from an extensive menu and brought to the room at the chosen time. Presentation and food was very good. The ground were lovely, pool was so peaceful with a little bar. As it’s the low season we were felt like we had it to ourselves. It also has a huge gym! Which is rare in Thailand. It’s an arts hotel so the artwork was amazing throughout. One thing that would be nice is if you paved the side of the pool where the sunloungers were, the loungers were on soil, which isn’t as nice as the decked/paved part of the pool, but that’s a tiny thing! We hope to come back some day and stay longer!

We loved staying here, we felt like we were so far away from the hustle of Phuket. I loved looking out into the hills, it was very relaxing. We loved how quiet and peaceful it was. The pool was large and get to cool off in. Seating around the pool was good too.

We loved everything about this hotel and didn’t want to leave. Be aware it’s far from the busy side of the island but you can use Grab or a taxi to get around. It’s perfect for a restful rejuvenating vacation. The food was good and good selection. We loved the private pool room.

My family and I spent 3 nights in a villa with private pool Absolutely loved it Our butler Bim was a lovely young lady, very helpful and friendly Will recommend this hotel and will definitely stay here again

Lovely resort. The design is a bit odd and all the non villa rooms with pools are actually full shade, which sort of defeats the purpose of a private pool. We ended up switching and upgrading to a villa which had the sun and view and turned so so into a great experience. Food is very pricey compared to other resorts and it is relatively away from most places. There isn’t a nearby town for restaurants.

The property is absolutely beautiful. The staff is very friendly. The breakfast is awesome. Our villa was impressive,3 bedroom two stories with a private pool and view of the ocean. Jimmy was so nice, we loved her. The only reason I gave it a 4-star instead of a five, there was construction going on with a huge crane one villa over from us. So, while trying to enjoy our beautiful pool over looking the ocean was disturbing to keep seeing the crane move back & forward, while interfering with our pictures as well. I asked to move villas after check-in, but was told I could the next day, we had to tuff it out for 1 day in that villa and kind of missed out on the hanging out by the pool for the day and unpacking some of our things since we were moving the next day. The following day, the hotel moved all our luggage while we were out on the boat. Everything else at the hotel was lovely. A little disappointing while celebrating my niece's birthday with the room construction and changes the following day. But overall I would recommend this hotel.

We originally booked and stayed (for one night) at another hotel in Phuket. We booked this one an hour before checking in. From the moment we arrived, to the moment we left, it was the best hotel experience we have ever had. The staff (Wow on front desk, Dream at the pool bar), as well as everyone else were just perfect. The location, staff, food, pool, spa, room, style, design, quietness, other guests and vista were all perfect.

We had an AMAZING stay at The Six Senses. The staff were absolutely incredible, especially Khun Q who looked after us, and the villa is the best accommodation we've ever stayed in. The villa was huge, and the private pool and deck area was just out of this world. The accommodation was kept spotless at all times, and the pool cleaned thoroughly and regularly. It was truly a paradise and I can't imagine we'll ever stay in such a nice villa again. The food was all delicious, and the day trips offered by the hotel run perfectly. We had the absolute best stay.

The property is absolutely gorgeous. We had a two bedroom villa with a pool. The pool was sparkling clean. The air conditioning worked very well. We ordered room service and ate at two of the restaurants. We were only there for two nights which was definitely not enough. The staff were all outstanding. The spa was incredible, one of the best massages I have ever had. I can’t wait to go back.

The resort is simply spectacular. A piece of heaven on earth. The views from the resort, particularly from our room were fantastic (we stayed in a panorama pool villa). One of the strong points of the resort is the food, all restaurants and breakfast were incredible, particularly the Thai options (the fried egg pad kra pao was our favorite). Both the resort and villa pools are also great. The villas are very private. We loved the nature and wildlife in the resort and also the environmental consciousness everywhere. The farm, and possibility to get your own eggs are amazing. We also liked the island itself, which we explored with the bikes available on site. The staff is world class, really they go above and beyond to help and make you feel pampered. Jenny our host was lovely and was always there to help. There are tours to local island as wells as Phi Phi, Krabi and other places. I highly recommend booking at least one of these, since they are really amazing.

Six Senses Yao Noi is set in the most stunning location, blending breathtaking natural beauty with luxury and sustainability. The wildlife and lush surroundings create a vibrant island vibe, seamlessly integrated into the resort’s design without disrupting nature. The level of food and drinks was unparalleled—honestly, the best coffee we’ve ever had abroad, and every meal was an unforgettable experience. There were plenty of activities, including a magical James Bond movie screening under the stars (as a part of the "Living Room" restaurant). The peaceful integration with nature made us feel like we were in a luxurious treehouse. Our Hideaway Villa was perfect, with a fantastic bath and thoughtful mosquito management through fogging and natural repellents. Pool was amazing and so as the outdoors seating and dining area. unmatched privacy!! The hotel staff was amazing, offering free ice cream and complimentary activities like paddleboarding and kayaking, always with a helping hand. Even the transfer to the airport was flawless, with staff escorting us all the way to the check-in counter, handling our luggage from start to finish. The overall vibe was intimate and familial, making the experience even more special.

Absolutely wonderful stay — easily the best experience we’ve had abroad. Six Senses is truly one of a kind. Nothing compares to the breathtaking view from the Hilltop pool, the warmth and attentiveness of the staff, and the incredible design of the walkways throughout the property. Getting picked up from our villa and seamlessly taken wherever we needed made everything feel effortless. Honestly, the entire experience felt magical.

Just Spent short break at the elixir, had excellent deluxe bungalow, plunge pool, outside shower lovely,some of the nice touches included, beach bag ,slippers, gown,lovely smiley staff ,and amazing hotel beach. We also hired scooter for day through reception excellent value.

Perfect accommodation, beautiful view and relaxing place. We like everything about it. we had private bungalow plus private pool on the beach.

We loved everything about Elixir. Beautiful resort. Great food and cocktails. Private pool was so nice.

Very nice place, I had a villa with private pool. Closest villas to the beach.

We've travelled a lot, and this is our favourite place. The room (beachfront private pool) is spacious, clean, beautifully decorated, and the pool and ocean view are incredible. Not to mention the lovely outdoor bathroom. Food and drinks at the resort restaurant are tasty and reasonably priced, the massage service is great, and staff are super friendly and helpful. They booked 2 tours for us during our stay, and they customised the tours per our request so they were exactly what we wanted. This was our second stay here (first time was 2015) and we will definitely be back again!

We had a lovely week here. It is a stones throw away from the beach - worth getting up and going over for sunrise! Aicha and the team were all so kind and very helpful. We have an online business so needed to work everyday from our laptops - we were able to sit at the tables in the main area where there were fans and a nice ocean breeze. Even when it was raining it was lovely! The room was spacious, had chairs inside and on the front deck area, decent cupboard and storage space. There are plenty of food options around - across the road on the beachfront is an Italian restaurant, a handful of local Thai spots, then either way up or down the island are other options. We walked to the 7 Eleven and it took around 45mins (easy flat walk), but there are other little shops much closer to get items. It's quiet around there which was perfect for us, at times we felt like we had the whole accommodation and beach all to ourselves. If you're looking for western food, the Extra Time sports bar round the corner has great food (their Thai is also delicious). 360 bar and sunset bar are also good spots. Honestly all the food we had around there was great. We got a kayak for 300 baht for 4 hours and went over to Hong Island - hard work but a great time. Will definitely return again in future.

I had a great 10 days here. Great location, directly opposite the nicest part of this beach strip. Cross the road and you are at the beach, perfect. Many restaurants and bars etc within minutes walk. The rooms were comfy, and the bed was very comfortable. The room was cleaned well and good bed linen and towels etc. Nice patio to relax on surrounded by beautiful nature. Some cute and friendly cats around. Owner very nice woman. She speaks good English so it's easy to communicate. She helped me with information regarding my onward travel to Krabi and also arranged a bike to be delivered, very quickly and good price. Was all very easy. I would like to stay here again if I get a chance to return to this beautiful island 🏝

We arrived to be taken to our lovely bungalow very basic but has all you need for your stay we stayed 4 days you could easily stay longer a lot quieter loved it you walk over the road to the beach bar and next door is a lovely local resteraunt . we hired a moped for one day as we had everything we needed on our doorstep. They organised a taxi for us back to the ferry 100 bht per person . Loved it

For the price this place is absolutely amazing. It’s a rather secluded farm, the rooms have comfortable beds an air conditioner and hot water with decent pressure in the shower. The view and background noise are stunning. We were here with our very active five year old boy and he had plenty of space to run around and explore

It is a really nice, comfortable and clean place in front of the best beach of Koh Yao Noi. We felt at home, the moment we arrived. Very nice bungalows with everything you need in walking distance. The owner was very helpful and friendly. We are already planning on coming back.
