Lock in a great price for Jamahkiri Resort - rated 8.9 by recent guests.

to get started.

Views were amazing, room was clean and spacious. Amazing snorkeling trip. Basil spaghetti with salmon so yummy!

Lea, United Arab Emirates

We loved the room, the view, the ground scenery (lush colours) and the little private beach. We also really appreciated the on-site diving shop and the service level there, although we didn't get to dive this time around, travelling with our two kids. The staff was overall very pleasant, some wonderful, others less so.

Martin, Denmark

The views are great. And that is the main reason to book this property. To wake up to that view is just amazing. The rooms are very clean and well maintained

Utsav, India

The hotel has a killer view, just amazing. I woke up everyday and sit on the balcony just to hear the sound of the ocean. The snorkeling tour is highly suggested, we could swim with a shark, turtles and lot of other fish - even if shark bay is a little depressing for all the dead corals, the rest of the island seems better. The staff is generally very nice, we had a stain on our bed sheets but they changed them straight away.

Arianna, Australia

Location views are beautiful looking at the bay and the sea, hotel is immaculate rooms are great, bath was awesome.

Kc, United Kingdom

Location is a plus and a minus - it’s about 10 mins drive up very steep hills on a dirt road but the plus is that the views are amazing! The snorkelling trip organised by the hotel was epic - a much smaller group than some of the others that were taking place. Lucie - the guest relations manager who was extremely helpful and available at all times. Shuttle bus into town and back again - leaves at 6pm and returns at 9.30 so enough for a sunset and a meal!

Kate, United Kingdom

The hotel has an own Boat (old rice boat - most beautiful boat on Koh Tao) and offers a diving tour arround Koh Tao with 4 magnificent diving spots. It's a perfect half day tour for all familiy members.

Mike, Switzerland

The facilities where good and the staff very helpful. When we had a AC problem they immediately moved us to another upgraded room. The resort diving boat experience was top class and most enjoyable.

David, South Africa

The pool, the dive centre, the access to Shark Bay. Shark Bay was many peoples favourite beach of our whole Thailand trip (which has a lot of stunning beaches). We managed to leave some important documents behind and the staff went absolutely above and beyond in getting them back to us (we were over 100 miles away and they sent somebody on a night boat to catch us in tine). We cannot thank them enough- an incredible example of customer service (and after we had checked out!!).

Vishal, United Kingdom

Beautiful view from the rooms; nice architecture, nice location, close to a beach (although only a few shuttles a day to the beach from the hotel).

Although we appreciated the layout and "organic" feel, there were a lot of stairs, and it would've been possible to integrate some kind of elevator on certain stretches. We were fine overall, but with two trips from the beach to the restaurant each day, carrying a kid or beach bag, you're in for a serious workout.

The steps. Reaching your room on the 3rd Floor means coming down 100 steps or so, which gets tiring in the heat. The pool opens only at 9 am which isn’t great if you want to take an early morning dip. The staff does its best, but the hotel has some weird policies. We had some issues with our luggage and used the laundry bag to pack some of it. On checkout, they opened the laundry bag and put our luggage in a paper bag, which made no sense. Additionally, they charge a 10% extra on paying via credit card (the norm in Thailand is 3%). Not sure why this is the rule, but isn’t helpful to a guest.
The views are great. And that is the main reason to book this property. To wake up to that view is just amazing. The rooms are very clean and well maintained

The restaurant is overpriced. But if you go at the entrance of the resort you can walk literally 5 minutes to the EagleView restaurant, much cheaper and higher quality. We never had a better grilled fish in Thailand. The man that drives the shuttle is quite rude, or maybe he doesn’t speak English well.

When booking we wanted a twin room but got a double - a solution was found with an extra bed but if you want a twin, email the hotel in advance. There are A LOT of steps in this hotel and no lift so you need to be mobile to stay here. Ask for rooms on 5th or 4th floor to be closer to the pool/ reception. Our rooms A/C wasn’t working after 2 nights we got another room which was perfect. Breakfast - there were quite a few flies - the hotel should buy some sort of covering to protect the food.

“Disapointed”
- • Leisure trip

We contacted the dive school by mail a few months before our arrival in order to do an open water course but we never got a response, my friend that lives in Koh Samui went to see them to organise the course, the only reply was to send a mail, but we never got a reply. On our arrival we asked the instructor if it was possible, we got a very short reply that she is fully booked, and that it is not possible, I questioned about my unanswered mails, again I was shrugged off, I asked if it would be possible to do the course with one of the other 82 dive schools on the island? again I was told that it is not her job, and that I will have to look for a school myself. I did just that and went to the neighbouring Hotel Had Tien Beech Club Dive Academy. We were greeted by the director who promptly got hold of a freelance instructor, as they were fully booked as well, and started our course on the same day. That is what I call service, I have already booked my next course with them and staying at the Hotel The other problem we encountered was that there is no beach at the hotel, you have a beach at the Hotel Had Tien next door, but you have two boats in the morning 9:00 and 12:00 or swim there with all your belongings:( the staff at the snorkelling and kayak rental doesn't speak a word of english... the list goes on...This hotel is not for seniors, there are over 200 steps from reception to beach

The resort is located on a steep hillside and thus you can expect steps and this can be a problem for those not fit and older. You cannot walk into town but the resort taxi system worked fine

Okay

The check-in time is at 2 pm which itself is kind of late when compared to other hotels. I reached the hotel at 12 and the western lady at the reception informed me that the rooms will not be ready until 2 pm. Ok. I understand that it was clearly mentioned. So we went swimming at the beach. When we came back all wet and soaked at 3 pm, the room was still not ready!! The girls were still cleaning the room. If it was not for the Thai speaking girl at the front desk who accompanied us to the room and apologized for the delay, it would have been a totally bad day for me. The next day when it was time to check out the staff knocked on the door at 11:15 am. Apparently, the check-out time is 11 and they waited there till we got out of the room. I didn't bother to argue with the staff that we were allowed late on the previous day because I knew that the poor staff were following the instruction from the management. The food at the restaurant is expensive and the breakfast selection was limited. They also tried to charge me for breakfast. After they brought the bill, I have asked them to re-check and later it was found that my booking included breakfast for two.
Very clean room. Good view from the hotel.

“A correct 3 star resort.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 3 nights
We never write bad reviews for hotels but we were so disappointed by this one that we must. We do not understand how this hotel could qualify as five star : disappointing staff (some of them were friendly but others surprisingly rude, which is so rare in Thailand), high prices at the restaurant for mediocre food, very basic breakfast, rooms also very basic... In short: stay at this hotel if you want a 3 star hotel with convenient location and beautiful views, but do not expect anything more.
Beautiful view from the rooms; nice architecture, nice location, close to a beach (although only a few shuttles a day to the beach from the hotel).
