Best Honeymoon Ever!”
We chose this resort as our first honeymoon and it was fantastic! Staff were all friendly, the place was calm and peaceful, scenery was majestic, the room was immaculate, the food at the resort restaurants (there are 3 in the resort) were tantalisingly good, and best of all the price for everything is affordable given it's a 5 star resort. From Phuket Airport, you'll need to go to the Ao Po Grand Marina and take the boat transfer to the resort where they have their own dedicated pier. I would advised to book a room that is coupled with boat transfer in its price for logistical easement. Make sure to check in their website for boat transfer schedule so you won't miss the last boat transfer of the day. Nearby outside the resort have local travel businesses where you can do outdoor activities like island hopping, snorkeling, renting scooters, etc. at a low cost. There's also local restaurants nearby too if you fancy authentic local Thai delicacies. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and we hope we can come again soon in the future to revisit this wonderful place on earth. Thank you Santhiya!

Beautiful resort (we got a free upgrade) -> thank you so much.”
Dear hotel manager, dear resort staff and employees, Thank you so much for this awesome experience at your perfect hotel. I say perfect because I mean it. We have been at your resort last year (August 2021) when covid was still big and dominating the tourism entirely in Thailand. You welcomed us with a giant welcome sign handmad with our names on it (so sweet) and with free drinks. We have never experienced such a friendlyness of hotel employees before. Actually all the employees were there to welcome us. Then the most awesome part began: You told us that we got a free upgrade to the best room, a whole appartment with two bathrooms, a living room, and an overwhelmingly nice bedroom with direct access to our own pruvate massive infinity seaview pool. It could not have been any better. Later we experienced the nicest sunsets and such good dinners in your restaurants. The giant resort pool is also overwhelmingly nice and beautiful. The private beach is massive, super clean and super calm, you can even take free canoes, free snorkel gear, and free stand up paddling boards. Just wow, there was so much included. We wish the whole team all the best and that you will have more guests in the future. This hotel/resort is the best we have ever experienced in our life! Thank you again for everything.

Great place”
Great place, great island. Everything about this resort is absolutely amazing. The tree made rooms, modern but yet very cozy design. We had a great time. There was a band playing in the evening which was really good. The views are amazing. Room was clean and the service was great. They do put a lot of that anti bug smell everywhere though which was pretty hard opening the closet in the room. Other than that everything was great and we totally recommend staying.

Pool Villa a must”
This hotel a has a great beach. The infinity pool and restaurant up on the hill is picture perfect. The main pool area is good and the on beach dining areas are quite nice. The star of this resort is the pool villas. The supreme and deluxe rooms are good and offer great views but the pool villas are a must. Take a look at the pictures from the resort and they are exactly what you get. Clean luxurious huge spaces with the best balcony I’ve ever come across and I consistently stay at luxury resorts around the world. This was the best experience at a hotel I have ever had and great value for the money.

Heaven”
I thought our airplane crashed when we arrived at this resort as I was pretty sure I’d landed right in heaven. The rooms in the Hotels are so private we could be naked outside with no fear of anyone seeing us. I only wished we’d booked for more than one night. The price of food and drinks were not cheap, but if you’re willing to wander down the beach there’s food outside of the resort for a fraction of the price. Example, the breakfast buffet was 750.00baht pp. I can’t justify that price when I’m not a big breakfast eater. Even a coffee was 150baht. But I still have zero complaints. This place was stunning.

Love Love Love... ”
Excellent Service that makes you feel like a star! Firstly I have to explained, I'm Thai by birth but I don't live in Thailand so it's easier for me to communicate in English. So to go to a place where people can understand English very well.. just makes me feel at ease. The resort was huge but I still feel safe, there's car picking me up and drop me off the place I want to go inside the resort. Never waited more than a few mins for the car. the drivers are always polite and drive carefully. Room- GORGEOUS room. Love everything about it. Everything in the room was thoughtfully designed and thoughtfully amenities selected such as beach bag, umbrella, slippers, bathrobes, unlimited supplies of water bottles... everything you need is ther. It was a very pleasant stay. I can't ask for more. Views- I asked for a room with a good view, and I got the room with a Stunning View! Thank you to the front desk lady Ms Pak Gad showed me the room it was amazing. I can't complain. I was mesmerized and stunned despite a wet season, it's still a magnificent view :) Thank you very much. Service - Oh my god, where do I start? Thank you Audrey from the Restaurant with infinity pool- you looked after me since day one. You are one of the hard workers I've seen. Not to say everyone else weren't hard working I mean I don't see anyone standing around doing nothing, they're all doing something all the time. Restaurant staff were very smart, they know when you just finished your food and asked before picking up the plates and if you wanted anything else but leave you alone to eat. I mean this is normal for service standard but even 5 star hotel in Bangkok still can't get that right. You normally get staff who are always around you and make you so uncomfortable to swallow your own food... and feel someone is staring over your shoulders. You don't get that here, they're well trained and very attentive without being in your face all the time. I felt like I got double the service other people

Paradise on a cliff”
We stayed here for two nights. Reaching to the resort from Krabi took a 2 hours wait at the jetty (not the hotel's fault, I was not aware of the boat schedule), 45 min speedboat and a 30 min van ride but it was worth the wait and the journey. From the room's balcony, I could spend the whole day staring at the ocean. The resort is stretched out on a cliff and there are shuttle cars which will take you to and fro between the room and reception area. It has a beach and a jetty which can be a good place to take some good snaps. Having breakfast at the Chantara restaurant was the highlight of the day. You can enjoy your coffee while looking at the Andaman Sea. Staffs were friendly and helpful and would always greet you with smile. Koh Yao Yai itself was very calm and laid back, we rented a scooter and explored the island. There are many local restaurants nearby where you can get a taste of local cuisine at a very reasonable price.

BEST? Bestest Stay ever! ”
Yes, had the most wonderful experiences staying here at Santhiya! Hospitality : 100/10 Food : 100/10 Service : 100/10 Massage : 100/10 Loved how the staff was very cooperative with everything, Also, helped us with the transport (speed boat + taxi) to our next stay.

Still have the view this property offered, saved in the gallery of my brain memory, loved waking up to this! WONDERFUL PARADISE ON EARTH, is what I would say! Thank you to everyone at Santhiya ❤️

Great hotel”
The hotel is very big but when you stay there you feel alone. There are a lot of common areas and the room are really spacious. The hotel itself is beautiful. The staff are nice, helping, everything is very organised. Breakfast was very good. There was no housekeeping and we had to ask for drinking water and cleaning.

Amazing resort on a sleepy island ”
We started our Thailand trip at Santhiya and it was the perfect spot to chill and regroup from our long long journey to get there. You take a ferry from Phuket which was nice but if you arrive early - you likely won’t be able to check in so we were waiting a few hours for that. We had a two bedroom pool villa which was absolutely gorgeous. The villa is hanging over the water with an infinity pool and the biggest indoor/outdoor bathroom I’ve ever seen. There are tons of nice touches - robes, toiletries, a beach bag and tons of pool towels and a well stocked mini bar. You get around the resort in these little buggies that come pick you up and that was a really fun touch. Breakfast is amazing and we are most meals at the resort. Be mindful that there really is nothing to do on this island and bc it is mostly Muslim - there aren’t bars and such outside of the resort. I don’t think we would have liked to stay there more than 2-3 nights because of the lack of other things to do, but we enjoyed our stay there quite a bit.

Exceptional”
It’s simply fabulous. We had booked 2 bedrooms ocean view pool villa. The view is to die for. We had also booked hotel room with sea view and it had bath tube over looking the sea was also equally good. Staff is really very good. Breakfast was okay. But overall I recommend 💯 to Santhiya.

Peace and quiet surrounded by jungle”
Santhiya Koh Yao Yai is a beautiful resort located on the hillside of Koh Yao Yai. The views from the rooms are breathtaking. We we lucky enough to stay in a Ocean View Pool Suite. It was super quiet and just what we needed to unwind. The restaurant served delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Halloween and Loy Krathong were truly special because the hotel management and staff created a festive and fun atmosphere. We visited the spa twice. Their service was excellent and the massages were so good. The beach is beautiful and the staff ensure that the hotel’s section of the beach is kept clean. We were lucky enough to be given an upgrade to a Seawater Pool Ocean View Villa, this was a fantastic surprise and oh so heavenly. The sunset view was unbelievable. The resort has wooden cars that transport you around so no need to worry if you are afraid to walk up a hill but having said that, it is really lovely to walk around the resort. The speedboat service and transfer to Phuket was quick, safe and efficient. Thank you to the management and all the staff at Santhiya for a truly memorable stay.

Best resort in Phuket”
Please dont think twice. Go for it. One of the most amazing holidays I had there. Right from the time we reached the pier to the drop off, we were taken care well. The rooms offered beautiful view of the ocean. And the buffet spread was simply mind blowing. The best part of the whole thing was the resort is not overcrowded and you have a beautiful beach to relax. Please dont miss the property. I will surely book again.

What an beautiful hotel with the best staff!”
Santhiya is one of those rare finds in the world where for the time you’re there, you forget about the world around you. A private beach, beautiful breathtaking views of the surrounds ocean, sparkly turquoise water and traditional Thai style that welcomes you at every corner. Santhiya has become one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. If you’re a solo traveller I highly any of the ocean view rooms which comes equipped with a balcony and private bath so you can soak up the views and relax in the water. Thank you Santhiya be to all the beautiful staff! Memories I’ll never forget x

Awsome hotel”
🙂 - From 7:30pm you had really good live music - great view to the sea and the islands - really nice pier to get the sunset - housekeeping came twice to kill cockroaches and lizards in the room and gave us a spray to use in case anything appeared again (this is understandable since the hotel is in the jungle) - great pool - breakfast excellent (great food and fabulous view) - hotel near small market where you could but some groceries or thai pancake or smoothies for cheaper prices ☹️ - cockroach in the room - lizards in the room - music in the restaurant at dinning (when we wanted to have a romantic date with a view) was really inappropriate with dj music. This happened until 7:30pm. - some activities or fscilities closed (perhaps covid or low season)
