Ok ok the 'HILL' yes it is steep, yes its hot BUT you don't get awesome views without height on your side. We are a couple that has just turned 30 and not particularly athletic and we survived just fine! Take it slow its only 200m long tops and if all else fails get a taxi! Plus the hotel will... More

We saw the reviews of this hotel and thought that the hill would not be that bad...but it was. It was particularly hot when we were there and this made the hill even worse. So, no problem right? Just take a taxi up it. The issue was that we rarely had occassion to take taxis and we weren't too steady... More

We stayed 3 nights at Chintakiri resort in a bungalow with a balcony with a beautiful view over Chalok Ban Kao. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was good(excluding the plain breakfast) and the resort is overall in good condition. There is a small swimming pool overlooking the bay, very nice to relax in and take in... More

Rooms (all villas) are fantastic, views are incredible, staff was great. Breakfast and food in general was good, and the drink menu is big! Overpriced it is not, true there's cheaper accommodation on the island, but you get what you pay for. And Chintakiri delivers everything that was expected. Do not even take the advice of people complaining about gecko... More

I booked a room at Chintakiri based on the great reviews I read on Tripadvisor. I was, however, unpleasantly surprised when I got to the place. First of all, the location is TERRIBLE. It is far away from Sairee Beach, the best place in Ko Tao, and you have to go up a steep hill, for which taxis charge extra... More

We stayed at this hotel with 2 children of age 3 and 8 months and it was a nice stay. The staff was very friendly and serviceminded eventhough their English is quite poor. The food in restaurant was good and wellflavoured. The breakfast is also wellprepared and a la carte so no flies buzzing around and everything freshmade. The view... More

We stayed at this hotel motivated by the good reviews it has on tripadvisor. The reality (at least for us) was very different from what we saw here: - Rooms and hotel facilities are dated. - Our room was infested with geckos (around seven of them, making loud noises at night), we had to get the hotel staff to take...

We stayed her for eight nights and it was fantastic! Great service, good bed, pleasant bungalow. The view when you wake up is amazing, just walk down and have a great breakfast. Actually the best one we had during our stay. I highly recommend staying her.

The resort is situated on a hill which provides a fantastic view of the bay below. Located away from the hustle and bustle of the two shopping areas, the resort is very peaceful and relaxing, there are some great restaurants and bars nearby the resort, and the shopping areas are only a short scooter ride away or 200 baht taxi...
