I extended my stay at Mango Bay and continued to enjoy the resort as the weather became calmer than the 1st week. As usual, excellent snorkeling and kayaking - typically I had the whole bay to myself in the evenings. Sublime! This is a family run resort, so the longer you stay, the better the the experience. I really found it to be a warm and helpful group of people who genuinely made me feel at home.

This was my 3rd stay at Mango Bay Boutique Resort in the last 12 months, which obviously shows that I love the spot. If you're looking for seclusion and outstanding water activities, this is arguably the best spot on the islabd, if not in the entire Gulf of Thailand. Ocean kayaking in calm waters, excellent snorkeling, particularly on the other side of bay, towards the mouth of the bay. Rose and Chaba Villas on the edge of the property give privacy and incredible views. Nice room layouts, clean and well maintained. Great staff and surprisingly good menu.

Remote but beautiful
Posted 27 Jan 2016 on HotelsWe stayed in Mango Bay in Koh Tao in January whilst travelling Thailand. The hotel is beautiful and very well looked after. The staff will help with any questions or queries that you have too. The rooms are almost like tree houses as it is set on the side of the mountain and in the jungle. We stayed in B1 which was lovely and clean and nice and cool on arrival (we needed it after climbing all of the steps!) The steps were a bit too much sometimes so I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone with any accessibility needs. However the view was beautiful even though we had some trees blocking it. I can only imagine how incredible some of the other rooms were!
We only tried the food in the restaurant once as it wasn't to our liking. We had been eating traditional Thai food and when we had a meal there it wasn't great.
Only one negative I can point out is that the hotel is extremely remote, which is not made clear upon booking. The access road is pretty much non exsistant (unless you have brilliant motor cross skills) and the only way to get there easily is to get on the taxi boat. The hotel run a good service meaning that you can get to the island or main pier twice a day but the last boat back is 3pm so you are in the hotel in the evening. This is perfect for some people who are there purely to relax but we wanted to explore a little.
Overall I would definitely go back as it was beautiful and everyone was so kind and helpful.

Positiv:
Traumhafte Lage, Zimmerblick atemberaubend über das Meer und die Mangobay.
Sehr nettes und freundliches Personal.
Gratis Schnorchel Equipment für Hotelgäste.
Direkt vom Hotel ins Meer zum Schnorcheln einsteigen.
Negativ:
Teilweise veraltete, teils gefährliche Ausstatung (Nägel stehen hervor, Klos riechen, allgemein müsste erneuert werden).
Kaum Verbindung zu Außenwelt, Shop besteht nur aus 3 dürftig gefüllten Regalen mit ein paar Knabbereien und Basis Drogerie-Bedarf).
Frühstück ok aber im Vergleich zu anderen Hotels dürftig und zu wenig.
Zusammenfassung:
Für 1 bis 2 Tage zum Abschalten perfekt geeignet.Aufgrund der abgeschotteten Lage aber nicht für längeren Aufenthalt geeignet. Das Potential dieser tollen Location wird kaum ausgeschöpft.
Tipp. Geld mitnehmen, kein ATM, Restaurant geht mit Kreditkarte.

hvis du MÅ hit les først dette!
Posted 16 Jan 2018 on HotelsVi hadde bestilt for 3 dager men valgte å sjekke ut etter kun 2 netter. Her var det lite trivelig å være. Selve overnattingen, i flott bungalow, var veldig bra. God seng og god sove kvalitet, med stille og rolig område. MEN, det skal sies at det finnes ingen ting annet å skryte av. Dårlig service, ingen tilbud annet enn selve hotellet. Resepsjon og restaurant. Ingen ting annet. SÅ hvis du skal hit så kjøp med deg øl, snacks, vann, solkrem, osv osv før ankomst!! Dårlig service både i resepsjon og restaurant. Veldig avhengig av å treffe de på en god dag tror jeg. Vi reise ikke tilbake og det er synd, for dette kunne vært et paradis.

Weit weg von der Stadt und schwer erreichbar
Posted 13 Nov 2017
Location: Es befindet sich im Nirgendwo. Man kann eigentlich nur Schnorcheln. Hier ist auch keine wirklicher Strand.
In der Regenzeit sollte man dieses Hotel nicht buchen. Wir kamen teilweise nicht hin, da es zu stark geregnet hat und je Taxis nicht off Road fahren wollten. Das kostenlose Shuttle was vom Hitel angeboten wurde, hatte bei unseren 6 Tagesaufenthalt 2 mal eine Verspätung von 1-2 Stunden. Das Restaurant des Hotels liegt weit über den durchschnittlichen Preisen, obwohl die Qualität eher unterdurchschnittlich ist. Andere Restauramts gab es nicht.
Die Zimmer sind sauber und der Ausblick traumhaft. Leider war vieles durch Regen und Wind sehr zerstört worden. Wir würden eher nicht nochmal kommen.
