Ko Yao hotel guide. Accor Hotels hotel in Ko Yao, Phang Nga Province

"Ignore the slightly perfunctory greeting at the ao po marina office - this place is incredible. We had a 2 bed pool villa and I think it will never be beaten in terms of view and comfort. My tips: 1. take a plug adapter (no international plug in room) 2. make sure you have cash as some restaurants/bars around the resort only take cash and the atm at the local shop is frequently out of order…. 3. It is easy to take a grab to the marina but the marina restricts grab pick ups in favour of their own taxis. We still got a grab to our next destination but had to walk out of the gate of the Marina The staff were the friendliest we have ever had and knew our names and the food and drink was nice and varied. The view from breakfast is wonderful. "

"This property is in close proximity to a lot of shopping and restaurants and within walking distance. This location is not a quiet place so if you’re looking for peace and quiet try further away from all the action. "

"This place cannot be faulted! The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, they always have a smile and they create a clean and positive environment. The breakfast food has a variety of options and it was very spacious. The pillows were fluffy and created the best sleeps. This place is truly paradise! Amazing beach too!"

"Very nice stay in a double pool villa. Efficient Check in/ Check out ( in the room), very efficient buttler trough whatsapp , room is big , clean, nice furniture, nice private pool and jacuzzi. Nice expérience ( barbecue inside villa, floatting breakfast in the villa, private yacht booking …) . 3 caviat: property is very big, you have private bike or buggy to call, beach club need to take a shuttle every 15min with 10min ride, lake or second pool not fully cleaned. All in all an excellent stay and memory."

"This resort is beautiful! The grounds are very well maintained and the staff is exceptional - they are service focused and anybody is able to help with all of your needs. Our room was very clean with amazing views of the beach. There is an adult pool and multiple kid friendly pools. The beach was lovely and also very well maintained. Since it is on the west coast we were able to see some amazing sunsets! There are many different options for food and drinks and everything was reasonably priced. Highly recommend this resort! "

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Mandarava. Felt like a boutique resort with lovely staff who remembered our names and amazing facilities including a choice of pools, games rooms and activities. Special thanks to Apple in the day spa. A truly restful stay."
