Location

Hotels in Tanote Bay & Ao Leuk

The resort occupies the Tanote Bay & Ao Leuk stretch on Koh Tao's east coast, where small coves and rocky edges contrast with the busier west-coast villages. Tanote Bay Beach is 50 m away, and Laem Thian Beach is 750 m from the property. Tanote Bay's coral reef lies close to shore, making snorkelling a defining activity; the bay is quieter than Mae Haad or Sairee. The island's east coast has resort restaurants but no ATM or 7-Eleven, so arrange cash and everyday purchases before heading out. Koh Tao's centre is 2.5 km away.

Ferries are the way onto Koh Tao, arriving at Mae Haad pier; the resort is 2.6 km from Lomprayah Koh Tao Pier. From the pier, a taxi or the resort's paid pick-up service can take you to Tanote Bay. Free private parking is available if you reach the resort by road from elsewhere on the island. Concrete access roads down to Tanote Bay and Ao Leuk are steep, so take care on a scooter. Samui International Airport is 62.6 km away, while Chumphon Airport is 86.9 km away; both journeys to the resort also require a sea crossing.

Nearby outings include Love Koh Tao viewpoint (850 m) for views over the coast, Ao Leuk (1.7 km) for another east-coast beach, and Ao Sai Daeng (2.4 km) on the south-east cape. Long-tail boats can take you to Nangyuan Island, with its sandbars and clear water; it lies 5.5 km away. You can snorkel from shore or use the resort's diving school. East-coast conditions are generally calmer from April to October, while rough seas from November to January can disrupt ferry services.
