A truly exceptional resort and one of the highlights of our trip to Thailand. We stayed in one of the private villas, and I highly recommend this option for anyone visiting. The villa offered stunning views, excellent privacy, and a unique traditional Thai design that made the experience feel authentic and luxurious at the same time. The resort itself is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by breathtaking natural scenery. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always eager to help. The facilities were well maintained, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing from the moment we arrived until departure. If you are looking for a peaceful island getaway away from the crowds, this resort is definitely worth considering. I would happily stay here again.

We had an amazing stay at Santhiya Koh Yao Yai Resort & Spa. The resort is absolutely beautiful, and the traditional wooden architecture makes it truly unique. Everything was very clean, the food was excellent, and the breakfast area is simply incredible unlike anything we’ve ever seen. The staff were exceptionally kind, friendly, and always happy to help, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The only downside was that the resort doesn’t have a nurse or medical staff available at night. Unfortunately, I became very sick late in the evening with severe symptoms, and there wasn’t much the hotel could do to help. Since the resort is on an island, access to medical care is limited, so we had to leave early and take a speedboat back to Phuket to get to a hospital. Despite this, we truly loved the resort and are very grateful for the wonderful hospitality we received.

An Unforgettable, Idyllic Escape! Santhiya Koh Yao Yai Resort & Spa is truly amazing from the moment you are picked up until your final departure. We stayed in a Sea Water Pool Room, which was absolutely idyllic—featuring a sparkling private pool, lush nature all around, and a full, breathtaking view of the ocean. The dining experience was equally impressive. Lunch at the main restaurant was exquisite, while the breakfast buffet offered an incredible variety of choices alongside impeccable service. As frequent travelers who visit many resorts, we can confidently say that Santhiya left a lasting impression on us. We cannot recommend it highly enough!

We’ll start with the fact that we were initially given a room in Zone 3, which was under renovation. This made our arrival unpleasant, noisy, and frustrating. To make matters worse, the bathroom in the room was clearly not clean. A few hours later, we were moved to another room. There are several pools throughout the resort, but for three consecutive days the infinity pool had no towels available for guests. The food at the restaurants is overpriced for what you get. During one of our meals, I was served stir-fried vegetables with a large amount of black residue from the frying pan mixed into the food, which raised serious concerns about the kitchen’s cleanliness. The most frustrating part is that nowhere before arrival does the resort make it clear that the property is enormous and that it is practically impossible to get around without using the resort’s shuttle service. Unfortunately, this becomes exhausting, especially in the afternoons when there are long waits because many guests are trying to travel between their rooms, the lobby, and the resort facilities. Overall, the resort is beautiful and the staff is kind and friendly. However, the experience simply does not justify the price. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again.

It’s hard to believe it’s already time to leave. We had four amazing days here and loved every moment. The beautiful design, lush gardens, breathtaking views, and connection to nature make this resort truly special. The staff were incredibly kind, the food was excellent, and every detail felt thoughtfully planned. Thank you for an unforgettable stay. We can’t wait to come back! ❤️
