The Plantation Koh Tao

Fantastic stay at The Plantation. Stunning views and a feeling of seclusion. A little walk up the hill but not too arduous to afford you the elevated position.

Amazing views. Quiet location. Great privacy and great workout up the steps LOL. In my naivety I presumed that The Plantation had a pool so booked my accommodation without a pool but there is no general pool.

Perfect! Amazing host(Phin),the room was excellent, and extremely clean, the ac and fans were more than adequate. Extra pillows were also provided after asking! The view and location were amazing, 1 minute via bike from the main areas, the walk to the room was honestly easy, despite the significant incline only few stairs were required for our room and the overall experience was amazing, with a few that was truly breathtaking. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! :)

Very good service and nice view

The amazing view from the plunge pool and back porch was the highlight of this villa. Quiet, and peaceful and a lovely spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening swim. Comfortable beds and good AC in the bedrooms (but fan only in living area). 3rd bedroom was a detached 1-bed unit down some steps and without any kind of view, making it less suitable for families. Laundrette/tour bookings/scooter hire was right next door, so very handy. Closest beach is through the resort on the opposite side of the main road and brings you to the quiet end of Sairee beach, which we loved. Just be prepared for a very steep 10 minute uphill walk back to the villa! Overall the villa was nice, but needed a bit of maintenance and not quite as good as I had expected for the price and rating.

We stayed for 4 nights in a two bedroom villa with pool and loved the place. You can walk into the busy area. But we rented two scooters at the bottom of the hill to explore the whole island. The slope is totally doable with a scooter if it isn't wet and you know how to ride a scooter. Sitting in the pool in the morning or late as night, enjoying the incredible view is one of my highlights of the trip. Place is clean, communication easy - highly recommended.

Very comfortable accommodation over looking Sairee Beach. Close enough to the buzz, but far enough away to feel a sense of privacy that you can escape to. I'd happily stay again and thoroughly recommend.

The Plantation is "up the hill" from the (more quite) north end of Sairee Beach (~5 min walk). Its a beautiful, modern and clean resort build into the hill side. We stayed in the pool villa and the view was "unbelievable". One of those places people usually only "dream about". 2 clean bedrooms, lots of electrical outlets (including on the patio, so working is possible everywhere). Internet speed was "intermittent", so video conferences were best held from the living room and not the bed rooms. Housekeeping was daily and (also the host) very friendly. Place is kept very clean. The villa is really "up the hill" and if stairs are a challenge this is not the right place. We like to walk and got everywhere on Sairee within ~30 min of walking. Many people rent bikes, but those are dangerous (especially on hills and when wet)... We leveraged "delivery services" a bit; especially the "French Kitchen" had great food, delivered to our patio ;) Best restaurant (view food combo) ever .) I hear the place is (pre-covid) booked out a year in advance and after staying for 9 days I can see "why". We would come back for sure.

Great view! The private pool is amazing and this is an exceptional apar**ent
