Santhiya Koh Yao Yai Resort & Spa, Ko Yao

Absolutely fabulous! We had a wonderful stay at Santhiya for the second time, no complaints here! Love it!

Amazing! We have never been treated better. Would come back here in a heartbeat.

We couldn’t be happier with this place. We loved the location. Everybody was helpful and friendly always with a smile. Our room was beautiful with a breathtaking view. Everything the room had was perfect. From the flip flops to the shampoo and the gorgeous beach bag they provide. I couldn’t believe I was there. It looked like a place taken out of a movie. I didn’t want to leave. Perfect place for honeymooners. We will definitively go back. 100 stars!!!! Thank you Santhiya, we will come back, we promise!

Huge and quite some old hotel. Families oriented. Bar drinks very average, same with food. Gorgeous views though and super cute rooms all wooden in local design. Good spa :)

No food after 10 while they claim there is a night menu. When I called to complain I was told it’s a muslim Island!!!! Since when food is not allowed after 10 in Islam? I’m a muslim myself and I had never heard such nonsense in my life. I was hungry that I asked for eggs. what do you think they told me? Sorry no chef at the moment. Only microwave food. We can give you mac and cheese! No hot dog? No sorry. But that can also be made in microwave. Anyway the manager finally woke up and said he was sorry and that he would send Food for the four of us! guess what 3 plates of spaghetti with some weird white sauce arrived and hour later for 4 people. 94 Baht for a bottle of water after tax is just insane. After an hour and 3 phone calls we finally received a match box we’d requested. Awful service. The pools are small in comparison with other Lux resorts. You have much better food options outside Santhiya. There is a place called MAMA the food is tasty with a reasonable portion and price if you’re interested in Thai and seafood. The only nice thing was the decoration of the pool villa and the private pool.
