The Sai Daeng Resort is a tranquil retreat perfect for those who love nature and adventure. The beach bungalows offer stunning views and a relaxed atmosphere, making it a great base for exploring the island. However, the resort is not ideal for those with mobility issues or anyone who prefers luxury amenities, as the uphill location and steep paths can be challenging to navigate.

Sai Daeng Resort is truly a hidden gem in Koh Tao, offering a serene atmosphere with stunning ocean views and direct access to a beautiful beach. The villas are uniquely designed and cater to comfort, while the service is attentive, making you feel well cared for. However, be prepared for a bit of a wait at times for service, and the location, while peaceful, is somewhat remote, requiring a shuttle to get to the more bustling areas of the island.

Our stay at the resort was truly a dream come true, especially with the stunning ocean views from our balcony. The snorkeling was incredible, and the convenience of having a pool bar and a nice restaurant on-site added to the relaxation. However, it is quite far from the main attractions, which might be a downside for those looking to explore more. Additionally, we faced some unfortunate weather that led to a missed night, and that was a bit disappointing.

I had a lovely stay at this resort with stunning views and excellent snorkeling opportunities. The room was beautiful and clean, but the dining options left a bit to be desired, leading us to explore dining elsewhere. While the location is a bit challenging to get to due to the hills, the staff was always around to help. Overall, it was a good experience and worth the money for the amenities.
