Sensi Paradise Beach Resort

Not the best Beachside, but if you drive a motorbike, not a problem

Location facilities food staff

Nothing not to like

For a 3 star hotel they have a lot on offer. Turn down, afternoon tea, ferry pick-up/return. Perfect location on the beach with huge snorkelling area with a ship wreck, and 2 pool areas. Amazing view from breakfast and fresh mango. The boats in the morning didn't bother us and it is nothing like Ao Nang... We had lunch at the restaurant and it was good food/value.

They do not offer a happy hour which would have made us stay there instead of venturing outside. Which is not a big issue... There are some mosquitos but we bought so Mosquito Repellent Coil in 7Eleven (for 20 baht) and kept the outdoor fan on maximum for when we sat outside so that was OK. We didn't experience mosquitos in the house.

Amazing staff always there to help . Fabulous massage staff.. excellent

The staff are very friendly and attentive. The location is quiet but close enough to amble to the main ‘strip’ in a few minutes. The rooms/huts are rustic but quite private with lots of space and a great veranda. Breakfast is good and plentiful with restaurants overlooking the bay. The main restaurant serves very reasonably priced and good food with a fresh fish choice each day. The private beach has lots of places to sit and the pools are fantastic, again with lots of sun beds. Each afternoon we were left a pot of green tea with some cakes and sometimes some bananas. You can snorkel straight off the beach and see a wide variety of fish. All in all great value for money. We booked for two nights and decided to stay for six as it was so relaxing.

The beds are not firm, they are hard! The pillows also, but that seems to be the norm on Koh Tao. There was nowhere to store your clothes, so you were living out of your bag.
