Koh Tao hotels were first established in 1984. They were very basic, just small, simple huts, no fan, communal shower room and toilet, and cost 30 Baht per night.
Today, things couldn’t be more different. Koh Tao now offers a wide choice of hotels, from simple wooden beach bungalows in secluded bays to budget dorm hostels in the town centre to luxury pool villas with private beaches costing over 30,000 Baht per night.

Other resorts have staff with professional management teams.
