Lock in a great price for Montalay Beach Resort – rated 8 by recent guests!

to get started.

The resort was right on a small private beach, pool was great although no sun at the pool as it was covered by trees

Chris, United Kingdom

The bed was very comfortable and the rooms super bright and clean. It's a great place to relax. The food in the restaurant was also great, not many vegetarian options though.

Judith, Peru

Hotel is on the beach where there is the most amazing snorkelling . This is a very quiet resort with very little todo if your looking for night life this is not the place to find it. . There are 3 restraint bars on this beach all very laid back. Hotel provides a good breakfast. Rooms are good. Staff are friendly and helpful

Sue, United Kingdom

The fish were nice when snorkelling at the beach. Pool was nice (but in the shade)

Daisy, United Kingdom

Clean and comfortable rooms, simple but nice interiors, quiet and restful location in a beautiful bay. Beautiful pool and decent restaurant.

Grga, Croatia

We found it to be very quiet except for the bar music that played most evenings until around 11. Up at 6:30 the beach was pretty deserted. The staff was helpful and accommodated our requests well and cheerfully. Room service was fairly prompt each day with new water and fresh towels. The snorkeling right off the beach was great. Food at the restaurant was reasonable and good. Included breakfast was a choice of 4 different sets featuring pancakes, omelet, sausages, rice porridge. We did not try the rice but the other three were good.

Mirificus, Thailand

Very nice Hotel! Wonderful pool with lot of shade. Very friendly staff, nice, comfortable and clean room. To sleep without AC was no Problem. Tasty food and nice Beach. Superb Snorkeling! You can rent Snorkeling Gear for 100 Baht per day.

Lisa, Germany

The property leads right onto the beach and while there isn't much else around, the restaurant serves a good mix of western and Thai food. Excellent place for snorkelling - especially in the mornings.

David, United Kingdom

The hotel was very nice, the staff was good and very helpfull. The bed was very comfortable.

Axel, Cambodia

The location was great, secluded and far enough from the crowded towns but a short drive to the pier. Our room was very nice and spacious. Really thankful the hotel provided beach chairs for guests.

Nicole, Thailand

“I've been here in June. The weather at Koh Tao was nice, the sea is calm. The hotel is big and modern. I was staying in block room house. Interior is beautiful, everything is made with taste. I've found everything that I need in the room. Staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast costs it's money. Taxi asked 300 baht for one-way ride after a auction. I rented a motobike to get there from Mae Haad Pier (200 baht a day). There are some steep ascents and descents, but the road is good and easy. With a bike I visited a "Love Koh Tao" viewpoint and restaurant, perhaps the closest outside restaurant from the hotel - I highly recommend this place! I rented a kayak (800 baht a day) at the hotel. Made a trip to shark island and freedom beach on the south. Take a shoes, water and maybe sandwiches with you, if you want to spend a day in the sea. And of course you'll lose a half of the fun in Koh Tao if you will swim without mask. Coral reefs here are number one attraction.”

눉I was a bit of a hazzle to get into town. You can go there with a shuttle from the hotel for 100 baht per person, but only at certain times of the day. We wanted to go diving and we had to go with one of the two dive shops on this side, which didn't offer the dive spots we wanted to go.
눇The bed was very comfortable and the rooms super bright and clean. It's a great place to relax. The food in the restaurant was also great, not many vegetarian options though.

눉Be aware and don't try to get in the water there corals are on the bottom! There's only one good enter at the right part of the beach.

눉Room smelt bad from arrival and throughout our stay. Bathroom was very dark so was difficult to see. You can't really sit around the pool during the day as it's all shaded so have to sit on the busy beach (often with no chair to sit on). Very few restaurants around (although perfectly adequate). The cleanliness of the room was also questionable, we had to wear shoes the entire time in the room as otherwise our feet would be filthy with bits of dirt picked up from the floor.

눉Wouldn't serve coffee or shake before 10.30 as only set breakfast menu served until then and come 10.30 they'll take other orders, strange. Suitable for children as they dominate the restaurant and pool. Staff at reception find guests a real annoyance checking in, asking about transport at this remote place and other impertinent questions. Good for mountain goats.
눇Nice bay

“Quiet, great for families.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Our family of 5 stayed in the family bungalow and we paid the extra 500 baht for an extra mattress. But we put it away (stood it up on end) each day so we could get around the bungalow. The beach has a lot of broken glass on it (like all the public beaches in Thailand we have visited). 5 people in one bungalow with one shower was a bit of a stretch, but manageable. It would have been more manageable if a shower at the beach for rinsing had been more available. There was only one shower and that was by the pool where you did not really want to wash off a lot of sand. There was a hose near our bungalow that we used to make due.
눇We found it to be very quiet except for the bar music that played most evenings until around 11. Up at 6:30 the beach was pretty deserted. The staff was helpful and accommodated our requests well and cheerfully. Room service was fairly prompt each day with new water and fresh towels. The snorkeling right off the beach was great.

눉Just need a small refreshing in some places of the hotel. The bar on the beach at night time (don't seems he works for the hotel, I think it's a personal business) could be better and more professional: could take care a little bit more of the customers for the drinks order. But his Pinacolada was very good, we took 1 every night after dinner!
눇The hotel was very nice, the staff was good and very helpfull. The bed was very comfortable.

눉Some of the staff could've been friendlier and more helpful, we had some issues locking and unlocking the door to our room.
눇The location was great, secluded and far enough from the crowded towns but a short drive to the pier. Our room was very nice and spacious. Really thankful the hotel provided beach chairs for guests.
