Great location and well appointed rooms. Service is classic Thai who are exceptional helpful and engaging. Resport is not that old so still very much in good shape (eg decking round the pool, tiles loose in pool area etc) minor but will need to be addressed. As we went in the off season there was low patronage - gret for us - but main restaurant (Pakarang) closed for lunch and dinner as a result. Reduces the viable options (not including pool bar/restaurant which closes approx 6) for dinner to two restaurants - not an issue generally but needs to be clearer on their website when booking. Watersports options reduced to SUP and Kayak. Agree with the no motorized stuff - but the odd hobie cat or small sailing dinghy would be good. Overall - a fantastic place Word of warning - if you have an early departure form Phuket - the private boat to get you there with an early morning surcharge is a BIG dent on the budget

I don’t usually take the time to right hotel reviews, I am a frequent traveler and have been to many fancy hotels worldwide, I can confidently say that my stay here has been the best I’ve ever had, it’s a peace of heaven on earth, if you ever want to disconnect from the chaos of life and relax, this resort is the place. Frame and her team took great care of us, housekeeping comes twice a day, we booked the lagoon pool villa and it was sparkling clean, everything was comfortable and convenient, their breakfast is great, the beach is nice and clean, the pools are spacious and calm, they have some activities everyday which I recommend checking (sunrise cycling, cooking classes, etc). It is located on an island where not much can be done, but you really don’t need to leave the resort as everything is available and the staff there is always there to make sure nothing is missing, the worst part about the hotel was leaving, we stayed for 5 days and I can say it wasn’t enough.

From the moment we arrived at Anantara Koh Yao Yai Resort & Villas, we were transported into a world of serene luxury and natural beauty. This island retreat is the definition of tranquility, nestled between lush greenery and the crystal-clear waters of the Andaman Sea. Arrival & Warm Welcome We were greeted with genuine smiles, refreshing welcome drinks, and a seamless check-in experience. The team made us feel like honored guests from the very beginning, setting the tone for a stay filled with thoughtful touches and outstanding service. Our Sea View Room – A Dream in Blue and Green We stayed in a beautifully appointed sea view room, and waking up each morning to the panoramic vista of the ocean was truly magical. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and designed with a perfect blend of modern comfort and Thai elegance. The balcony was our favorite spot – ideal for morning coffee or evening wine as we watched the sun melt into the horizon. Dining Experiences The culinary offerings were exceptional. The breakfast spread was extensive and catered to every taste – from fresh tropical fruit and local Thai delicacies to international classics. Each restaurant we dined at delivered both in flavor and ambiance, especially the seafood dishes at the beachside grill and the sunset dinners by the water. Activities & Spa Whether it was kayaking through mangroves, a sunset boat cruise, or simply lounging by the infinity pool, every moment felt like a postcard come to life. The An

I would say the facility is excellent but the quality of service needs to be improved compared to the price and star given. Since the hotel area is large and needs a buggy for traveling from one place to another. Requests were received by staffs but there is no showed up for buggy and requests for other stuffs are quite slow and not yet impressive.
