Pool, deck, and garden
The outdoor pool is the centrepiece of the grounds, flanked by a sun deck with outdoor furniture and a garden with a dedicated picnic area. It's a practical setup for a day between dives or island excursions, with a terrace that catches the hillside views.
Rooms with real views
Most room types — from the 32 m² Queen Room to the 44 m² Deluxe — have balconies or terraces that look onto the pool, the garden, or the mountains behind. The layout gives guests actual separation between sleeping and outdoor space.
The Deluxe Bungalow
The Deluxe Bungalow is a standalone unit with a king bed, giving guests their own structure separate from the main building. It includes free WiFi, and its independent footprint suits those who prefer a bit of distance from other guests.
Activities and tours on hand
The tour desk arranges snorkelling, diving, fishing, and cultural tours from Ko Tao. Bicycle rental is available on-site for an extra charge, and hiking is accessible. Cooking classes and fishing trips run off-site at an additional fee.
