The reception woman was really rude. Our wifi didn’t work at all even tho we paid for it. When we told about it to staff, they didn’t care. I told her I need to work from here and she told me to go to lobby to do my work. Without air condition.

I know the hotel wont reply to this review, as they haven't replied to any others. Upon arrival, we were told by reception that they never received our booking but when i showed them confirmation, they said they just received the email but the room we booked was not available until the next day so we had to stay in another room which was not as nice. The hotel needs to look deeply at their staff, they are rude, unhelpful and never smile. It is such a shame as the hotel is in a perfect position but visitors dont appear to want to eat or drink there. Also, be aware that if you ask reception to arrange transfer back to the ferry, they will leave you waiting for half hour.
I will definitely return to Haad Yao but not this hotel

Haad Yao area is wonderful. But the hotel has issues.
Not the end of the world if you stay here but do your research. There are much better options.
PROS: Haad Yao bay is lovely/swimmable/safe. Rooms are clean. Nice breakfast for 150 Baht. Nice views. Decent price.
CONS: Bayview Hotel is 12 stories and no elevator. Wanna go to the beach? You gotta plan/pack like it’s a day trip. Rooms are decent at best. Staff are rough around the edges, stressed.
Not the end of the world if this is your only option.
Do not worry about the severely bad 1 star reviews, but also you should ignore the 5-star reviews. This is a real 3-stars.
Hope this helps :)

Great location on the beach. Good range of breakfast menu options and helpful staff in the restaurant. We organised our onward trip to Koh Tao with reception and this turned out well. Overall, our famiily of 4 had a great stay.

When I was there to check-in, a staff couldn't find my booking. I was trying to give her information that I booked through Hotels.com. Instead of listening, she told me to stay still and kept searching for papers from another applications.
She also tried to talk to another customer even there was already another staff was talking care about his case.
She took my phone to see information about the booking but didn't return and kept talking to her colleague. When I asked her to get my phone back, she strongly refused that she did not take my phone!
At the end, she returned it but without apology.
She said that she would make a refund for me but 2 days later, she was still not!
It was the worst service I had ever had.

Our expectation based on price and pictures was an above average hotel but we would have been better off at the hostel down the road. Stained sheets and towels, lack of cleaning, poor service and a general feeling that no one cares about the guests means we won’t be coming back

Very rude receptionist that was more intrested in charging us twice for breakfast that we had already included. The breakfast was dreadful. The rooms are not clean, unchanged bed sheets etc. We had a room with private jacuzzi but there was no privacy as anyone could walk thru your balcony as there is a walkaway. Horrible hotel not worth the money. We gad a bbq and the meat was so tough we couldn't eat it but were still charged for it.

Lovely beach. Quite nice rooms. You must be a little bit fit to get back and forth the rooms as ours was up a very steep hill and lots of high steps. Have stayed in a few other places along the beach in the past. The beach and sunsets here are amazing!!

Lovely location and room was perfect sea view, Reception staff could do with some customer service skills more interested in getting your 500 baht deposit from you than welcoming you in.
Other staff are fine especially the lady on the information area called Mama Tim,
Arranged a fishing trip and around the island your qon one of the resorts boats, perfect day.
Rented motorcycle in resort called Big K prices are good.

There was a cockroach in our room it was huge and disgusting. The electricity was awful and our phones never charged and they refused to give us a second key so we could charge our phones while we were by the pool. Food was extremely overpriced and not of the best quality. Far away from pretty much everything and the on site shop is double the prices of 7/11 or family mart with less selection. Wouldn’t recommend.

Fantastic value for money - big air conditioned rooms with hot showers, right on the beach, two swimming pools. Restaurant can be skipped for sure, but the BBQ they put on every night is great quality and cheap.

This is a quality hotel located on the north of the island. The facilities are very good for the price and the view from a sea room is amazing. It is a bit north and far away from the main portion of town for those looking to do more throughout the island. Will need to taxi most places or rent a motor bike for the day but by doing so will be well worth it!

Although the photos of this hotel online look very nice, it did not look nearly as well maintained when we stayed there this week. Also, here are a few minor points that we learned after checking in. There are a lot of stairs and no lift. So if you want the best views, be prepared to climb for them. Or just ask for a room on the ground floor. Our room only came with two bath towels (no hand towels, no washcloths, etc.) and no telephone. When we asked about this, the hotel staff told us only the bungalows have more than two towels and telephones. Lastly, because the hotel is so far north on the island, we had a difficult time finding a taxi who would take us home after spending time further south.
I'm not saying you shouldn't stay here, but at least keep this in mind when you make your choice.

Stayed for 3 nights! Television and WiFi didn’t work from day one spoke to reception 3 times and no one fixed the problem! Pool downstairs was a bit dirty full of leaves and bugs but not as bad as the one upstairs! It a massive resort so a lot of stairs and no lift! When we had a problem we couldn’t ring the reception as the was no phone available in our room so we had to run up and down! We ate in the restaurant once we’ve ordered beef burgers but we got pork, so a bit disappointed with food for the price we’ve paid! Cleaners were sleeping on the stairs which didn’t look professional! Expected a bit more from a resort! There’s a bike rental by the reception 250 baht for 24 hrs which was very convenient also a shop where snacks are available for double the price as 7-11! Washing machines were available behind the bike shop 40/50 baht per wash. Good thing though amazing view from our fourth floor room! Also if you find the pool on the deck there are sun beds available and you can get a beautiful view from up there! Very nice beach!

Horrible customer services. Stay somewhere else on the island!

A very nice and quite place to stay. The staff was very helpful, especially one lady at the front desk, she was very accommodating and spoke very good English. The beach was so, so, to many weeds in the water, good for snorkeling This resort is tucked up in the lush and tropical hills. A great place to relax.

I never write reviews.. but this place was truly HORRIBLE. You can stay anywhere else in Koh Phangan for cheaper, better and a cleaner experience. I have stayed in many hostels and low budget hotels and don't expect much from these places... but this "resort" was truly something else:
- it is a motel... not a resort (personally not a problem for me)
- there was blood on the (unchanged) bedsheets
- the staff tried to get us to pay twice for breakfast that was already included. we later found out they tried this with several other guests.
- we put the do not disturb sign on our door. the maids went in anyway and left the door unlocked with all our valuables inside.
- they AC was broken.. no they did not change our room.
- our food took 1.5 hours to get there (not a big problem)
- if you purchase a BBQ dinner there is a "salad and soup salad buffet" but they only refill their salad if enough people complain, and only give onion cold soup (no it didnt get cold... they never turned on the hot pot). they also ran out of bread by 7 pm.
- everytime I passed the reception there was guest arguing with the staff because they were being accused of stealing something (minbar, towels..)
- I tried to speak to the manager... he could not give less of a care and told the staff to bring me to the receptionist instead.

The resort was fantastic. The room was clean daily, fresh towels provided, warmest shower we had on our trip. The staff were friendly and accommodating. There are mopeds on site available to rent which made getting around each. Staff organized round trip taxis to and from the full moon party for new years. Would definitely recommend for fellow backpackers or someone looking for a quality getaway for a modest price.
