Located in Koh Tao, Closca Hostel Koh Tao features a shared lounge, terrace, bar, and free WiFi throughout the property. The property is around 7.3 km from Ao Muong, less than 1 km from Chalok Viewpoint and 1.9 km from Shark Island. The property is non-smoking and is set less than 1 km from Chalok Baan Kao Beach. I came to the island to take diving training. The first night, I slept on the top bed in a room for 4 girls. I didn't know how to turn off the air conditioner and ceiling fan, and I was very cold at night, sleeping in warm clothes. I was very afraid that I would get sick, because I recently had a cold. Therefore, the next day I asked for a place on the lower bed at the reception. I was very pleased that the administration met me halfway and on the same day overpowered me on the lower bed and the staff rearranged my pastels. I was very worried that I would not be able to complete the training if I got sick, but in the end I passed. And I believe that this is also the merit of the hostel staff.I also want to mention the work of the staff, I have never seen such a clean and well-maintained hostel. We had it cleaned every day! It was very clean, there was hot water without interruptions. There was an AI air conditioner and a fan, everything that is necessary for life. A comfortable common area for work and relaxation, excellent breakfasts saved me time and effort. I will definitely return to this particular hostel, there are good people working there who love and develop their project. You can feel it. I wish you success, with love from Russia.

Situated in Koh Tao, 1.5 km from Chalok Baan Kao Beach, Wonderland Jungle Hostel features accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking, a terrace and a bar. The property is located 7.3 km from Ao Muong, 400 metres from Chalok Viewpoint and 2.4 km from Shark Island. The accommodation provides evening entertainment and a shared kitchen. This hostel is such a great vibe. It’s very social but not a crazy rager hostel. People would have drinks and chat while others went to bed early because they had diving in the morning, for example. I loved the atmosphere, the location being in the trees was just magical, and the common room were soo nice to relax in. I met some amazing people and wanted to stay longer even though I had already extended my stay!!
