What we say:

Tao Thong Villa straddles the headland that is Cape Jeda Gang and has a little cove on both Ao Kul Jeua and Haad Sai Nual sides of this little peninsula. These private coves are great for swimming and snorkelling. Bungalows stretch from the aptly named Sky Bar balanced on top of the hill right down to the water's edge where you will find the reception and restaurant. Sky Bar is the most relaxed place to watch the sun sink below the water and even worth kayaking around to if you are staying on one of the close by beaches. The bungalows vary greatly in price but are all good-sized and well-kept. In addition to a wonderful cliffside restaurant, Tao Thong also provides a book exchange and a shop with hammocks, snacks and other essentials -- a nice touch in this rustic locale -- as well as scheduled longtail service to Mae Haad at 9:00 and 13:00 daily for 50B/person.

Peaceful and VERY quiet!

I went to Tao Thong Villa first in 2003 and spent nearly a month there. There were lots of people around and the vibe was great. We visited in the low season (June 09) and the peaceful setting was still there although not many guest were... Gone are the 100B wooden bungalows and all that remains is 400-600 B Concrete ones with cold water bathroom. The snorkeling is THE BEST on Ko Tao for sure. Having dived and snorkeled on every beach and spot on the island, trust me, you can see black tips, puffer fish and turtles right outside for doorstep if you stay here! Don't expect a good night life. There is a bar called 'Sky Bar' just up from the bungalows run by the owner's cousin. A nice place to chill in the evenings but not a bif party place. The main problem is getting there. It's a 40 min hike from Mae Had through the jungle, a 400 B 4x4 taxi or a 100B per person longtail ride. The owner does not have a boat and it's difficult if not impossible to get a longtail ride there if the water is choppy or it's dark. If you want a peaceful relaxed place with great snorkeling and a private beach, away from all the diving and drinking on Mae Had or Sairee beach, come here. If you want to party don't.
