This is a good place to be close to all the action around Sairee beach, and yet far enough to be able to relax and get a good night's sleep (an essential criteria in our books....) The kitchen is handy for making tea/coffee, the room is equipped with fan and aircon,though we didn't need both simultaneously, it's kept nice and... More

Spacious, clean and tasteful accommodation. A short walk away from the hustle of Sairee Beach, these villas are in a quiet secluded area. The use of the private pool before breakfast or after a hot day is an added advantage. The owners, Jim and Andrea (English & German respectively), are so friendly and helpful with making any travel arrangements or... More

I have lived on Koh Tao for a number of years and my parents decided it was time for a visit. They wanted luxury accommodation, in a quiet area, but within easy walking distance from the beach, shops and restaurants. They were extremely happy with my choice!

I spent two days at Baan Sawainam; wanting a nice, clean, air-conditioned room that was away from the hustle and bustle, and that was exactly what I was provided with.

If you're staying on Koh Tao and you want to live in some cheap backpackers' accomodation, then fine, there's plenty around. But if you want to have a little bit of comfort then I really recommend this place. The rooms are lovely, nice and large with A/c and fan, cleaned every day, there's a small swimming pool, and Andrea is... More

Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful, friendly but unobstrusive hosts, perfect! close to everything you need, but far enough away to feel secluded. I loved lazing by the pool with a glass of wine, perfect days!
