Great quiet spot north of all the busyness, but walkable 10mins along the beach. Good to escape the burnt backpackers and chill. Sea good for a dip/snorkel. Rooms are large. Happy hour cocktails on beachfront. Sairee beach was not really for me after the chilled vibe of the south but worth it for the amazing sunsets.

Very nice place to relax. Almost at the end of the beach, very quiet safe and clean. Cottage style dwellings which are well maintained. Staff was great and the two sisters that run the resort made sure I was met at my best and also got me a reservation back to Samui even after. It showed booked online. If you like the Thai food it is delicious and prepared well. I would recommend if you're going to Koh Tao to check it out.

I liked the lovely swimming beach in front of the resort. The water was very warm and calm. Also, you can walk the beach to many restaurants and shops.

Palm leaf is situated in the quiet north part of Sairee beach, in other words a great location close to everything you need including peace and quiet. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. I liked the bed. The view from our bungalow was besutiful with many big windows. We could see the beach and hear the waves. The only irritating thing was a dog barking alot during the night, but this is not the hotels fault. Also i feel sorry for all the stray dogs so i didn’t let that bother me too much. It’s good that hotels care for and feed the poor dogs. The restaurant is under reconstruction at the moment, so theres no bar or restaurant. This makes the place more quiet and a bit lonely, but that’s just how it is. Perhaps i think the price for the rooms were a bit too high concidering (we didn’t know about the closed restaurant before we we were there). There’s enough places to choose from near by, so a restaurant/bar isn’t necessary but would add a more lively feel to the resort. The reseptionist was very helpful with ferry bookings, luggage delivery and so forth. Thank you for that. We had an enjoyable and comfortable stay over all.

Best location on the island: at the end of the main beach which makes is walking distance from everything but still on a quiet location away from bars and noice. Very kind staff who helps with bookings. Spacious, clean and characteristic rooms on a jungle-like environment. Hotel doesn’t have breakfast but it can be enjoyed right next door at a beautiful seaside restaurant. A big recommendation to this hotel!!

We loved our stay at Palm Leaf Resort. Before we even arrived, Fon was in touch with us to make sure we would have a taxi ready to pick us up from the ferry and to ensure that everything would be ready for our arrival. From start to finish, the service was fantastic and they were willing to help us with fresh towels, scooter rentals and anything else that we needed assistance with. The rooms were clean and full of character - not to mention, right on the beach! We could have rolled out of bed and been on the sand. The bed was a little on the firm side, and the food wasnt our favourite on the Island, but other than that - we couldnt have asked for a better place to spend our time in Koh Tao.

Great spot directly on the beach, staff were very helpful with ferry shuttles/coordination and helping with bookings. A 5-10 minute walk from the bars and dining in Sairee Village, which can be pretty loud so we were happy to be a short walk away. Restaurant is open for breakfast and lunch only.

Palm Leaf was a fabulous place for my daughter and I. We had a sea view bungalow for 4 nights and loved every single minute of our stay. I would definitely go back again and again. The front desk woman was so so kind and helpful, always a smile. This place is a gem. Not fancy but clean, safe, comfortable and just down right lazy.

very nice room, very clean. You can book taxi, motorbikes, tours at the reception. Good food. Reception can provide information on what to do. Nice restaurant near by with great BB. It would be nice if the place would have a pool. Restaurant closes at 7 pm which is early but it is close to other beach restaurant. The sunset is hidden by some rocks (in April) so it is better to go to the next restaurant if you want to see it

Highly recommended. Staff are wonderful, the receptionist even let me use her moped when they had run out.
Nothing fancy, don't expect room service, but has everything you need and a stunning beach.

The Palm Leaf has been our favourite hotel during our 7 week trip to Thailand and Vietnam so far. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. Tha location has been quite perfect for our liking. It is near the end of the nicest beach on the island so relatively quiet. It is a ten minute walk along the beach passing many hotels, restaurants and bars to city centre. The hotel restaurant and bar serves very good meals at reasonable prices and drinks are cheap as well. The bungalows are spacious and clean and many have ocean views. We were upgraded to an upper suite for our last night and were really impressed with the upper floor suite. It is very large with An amazing deck and ocean view. No pool here but the ocean and sunsets are really the focus here. We would love to come back!

Palm leaf is absolutely wonderful!! It’s right on Sairee Beach but towards the end where it was much more quiet. Which we loved!! The bungalows are beautiful, clean, spacious, and that AC!!! It was amazing. The staff was so helpful and kind. They have great lounge chairs and towels for you to use on the beach and everything you could want is in walking distance. They also have a bar and restaurant right there for you. This place was incredible and we will definitely stay again the next time we’re in Koh Tao!

Stayed in a beach front bungalow, great views, spacious clean room. Wifi a little slow. Didnt eat at the restaurant. Nice walk along the beach into Sairee town, though do need to watch the tides as it is quite difficult to walk along the beach at high tide. Pleasant staff.

Close to beach, a little ways out of the action from Sairee beach or the pier. We switched hotels after one night mostly to move closer, but the lady at the front desk was also a little pushy about reserving taxis, Ferry's, etc. All through her when all we wanted to do was go to the beach...

I come to Koh Tao once or twice a year to dive. This was my first time at Palm Leaf. It is quiet (far enough away from the party bars to sleep) and a four minute walk to my dive shop along the beach. The bed is comfortable and the staff is friendly and helpful. I have stayed at several budget hotels over the years and they are all pretty crappy here and not worth the 600-1,000 THB they charge. For a little bit more, I had a fantastic stay and will definitely return.

My partner and I loved our stay at Palm Leaf resort. The staff were incredible, very helpful, friendly and attentive.We stayed in a sea view bungalow which was a very spacious, always thoroughly cleaned and the location was perfect for us. It was far enough up the beach so it felt tranquil and secluded, but only 10 minutes away from the huslte and bustle. The only thing that we werent so keen on was the food here, however there are plenty of restaurants close by so that did not bother us at all.When we return to Ko Tao we will definitely stay here!

Some bungalows were nicer then others. I stayed in the superior room and it could have used with some updating. It was a lovely location (close enough to walk to the main areas, but quiet). Staff were great. For the price, I would have expected a bit more luxury, but all in all no complaints

Lots of bugs in the room and no ac . 1 staff ask for more money from me to get to take me back to the hotel when I bought a round trip ticket from her on a small boat taxi so she clearly knew I had already purchased it . This made my experience a bad one no hospitality from this one employee ruined my stay
