"Lodging - Great bungalows and resort feel. I had stayed at another resort in Koh Tao for three days prior to Sairee, and Sairee stood out in every way. 5 minute walk to every major beach bar you'd want to hit, and there's also a Sairee Restaurant right on the beach. Diving - did my Advanced Open Water certification with James. I was a little nervous about the night and deep dives, but the professionalism and knowledge of the staff quickly put me at ease. Did a few dives with Roktopus, one of top rated dive shops, as well, and Sairee was just as good if not better. Service - had one the greatest customer service experiences of my life here. I lost my shoes on the way from the hotel to the pier. I called and asked if they had seen them, and they went out of their way to find them, and then ship them to me via ferry that same day. Really incredible way to end an incredible experience in Koh Tao through Sairee Cottage."

"We Went to Koh Tao in a group of 4 for 4 nights and stayed at the pool side room. The location is excellent as it is close to restaurant and bars. Also scuba dive with Seashell Divers in just a group of 3 divers which is perfect for us as we dislike big groups, Mike and Johan took care of us and saw whaleshark on our last dive! We will be back if we ever go back to Koh Tao again"

"i have stayed in alot of hotels and this is the top three hotels of all time. from the beginning you are greeted at the ferry doc by the staff and taken to a secluded area of koh tao. it's absolutely beautiful, the beach is amazing and the beach bar is the best. i recommend the cocktails they are really good price and very tasty! you cannot fault this place in any way. the food is amazing, the staff are so kind and helpful and the rooms and facilities are immaculate. i will be going back to koh tao and i would never consider staying anywhere else but haditen. we met dome french people who have stayed in many resorts in koh tao and they said that this was the best resort on the island. would also recommend heading down the road and doing some diving it's an amazing experience.

"Location is perfect balance between being close to the Sairee beach (especially by the hotel’s shuttle) and at the same time being surrounded by the oasis of beautiful peaceful nature offering spectacular views. Free transfer from the Koh Tao pier was perfectly on time exactly as we arranged via messenger the day before arrival. Next on the list was the smoothest possible check-in with lovely receptionist explaining us all the details and offering welcome drinks and wet towels to refresh. Meanwhile our luggage was taken to the golf cart which together with the receptionist took us to the villa we booked. In the villa the same receptionist took the time to show us everything and made sure we are all good (thumb up-well done lady!). It took us a while to comprehend it all, we felt for a while a bit like Alice in the Wonderland. We couldn’t decide whether to look from the spacious terrace and stay amazed by the views or jump in that bed which was absolutely amazing and comfortable and enjoy the views from there. I’m not even going to write about the equipment and furniture in the villa I will only say it was surprising how they were able to combine authenticity of the surrounding with the comfort these villas offer just amazing and pleasure from every point of view. When we thought it couldn’t get better, we were blown away by the breakfast the next morning, simply delicious and extremely wide selection of different food. We loved the swimming pool as well, clean, spacious, deep, offering nice views of course. If you would ask us whether we would stay again in The Tarna Align Resort when comming to Koh Tao again we would simply reply we will come to Koh Tao again just to stay in this resort and enjoy it more! Thanks to every staff member who made it great for us! See you soon... P.S. We were trying to find some cons or areas to improve but we couldn’t really, there was none. :) "

"Staff were super kind. Pool was awesome and huge. Room decor was neat, and the room was super clean. Mattress firm. Water was unlimited at the front desk, and the mini bar was stocked and pretty cheap which was convenient. I'd recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay somewhere a bit more upscale that what is typical in Koh Tao. It's far enough from the center to be quiet at night, but really still just a short walk to the center of the beach. "

"Had a beautiful stay with my wife. Everything was thought of. Booked one night, but extended for another 5 nigts. Couldn't leave. Fast check-in. Stunning rooms and swimming pool. Very nice breakfast buffet and, lunch and dinner was nice with many choices and good service. Great support from staff and management when needed to organize small trips and snorkeling trips around on Koh Tao. Had a diving reception as well, but didn't try. Looked very professional though. Cooking class is a must try. This was our first time on Koh Tao so it was important for us to have the support of the staff to know the do's and dont's on Koh Tao, and that they did very well. Will definitely come back here again. We did read other reviews before choosing this place and they are very mixed, and I must say that we were very surprised that this resort gets bad reviews after staying here."

"We loved Shark bay. It's such a secluded small bay with amazing waters. Definitely the best beach we'd been to in Koh Tao and Koh Samui combined. The resort is nice but I'd recommend that if you stay to pay the extra and get a bungalo on the beach as the resort rooms themselves are a bit far back, lots of steps, and not all rooms have a view of the bay. But we still loved it here and you have a choice of two good restaurants. You can also hire snorkels from the resort or organise a diving trip. To get into town is hard as they have limited scheduled shuttles so you'd have to get a taxi if those times didn't suit. However if you're looking for a few days to escape you wouldn't want to go anyway here anyway - we didn't. Only thing I was a little disappointed about was no gym but not a biggy. Would definitely come back here! "
