The best thing about this place is the view! Also, it is super quiet. Yes, It is secluded, but for us it was great and also easy to move around the Island by motorbike or the shuttle service by the hotel. The beach closest to the hotel is a real paradise beach (it is a 20-minute walk if you do not have a motorbike).

I was supposed to stay there for 3 days, and I ended up staying for more than a week. I already recommended this hostel to everyone that I met that is planning to come to Koh Tao. My stay was just perfect and I would definitely come back as soon as possible. Amazing staff and owners that make you feel like at home. Best hostel so far.

Perfect Island Getaway – Stunning Views & Incredible Hosts! 🌴✨ I can’t recommend Villa Mar highly enough! Located on the peaceful southern end of Koh Tao, this villa feels like a private slice of paradise — far enough from the crowds to truly unwind, yet still close enough to great beaches and restaurants. The views are absolutely breathtaking — every morning we woke up to sweeping ocean panoramas that looked straight out of a postcard. Watching the sunset from the terrace was pure magic. The villa itself is beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. What really made our experience special were the hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, offering great local recommendations and always being just a message away. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel completely at home.

I had a wonderful stay at the Mar Ozo Hotel. The girls at reception were so nice, kind, and extremely helpful, which made check-in a very pleasant experience. The rooms were spotless and well-maintained, with a really nice bathroom and very comfortable beds. The air conditioning worked perfectly, and there was always hot water available. I also appreciated the little details like water in the fridge and being well taken care of while waiting for the room to be ready. Overall, an excellent stay – highly recommended!
