Shantaa is great, don't hesitate to book in. Koh Kood is a sleepy island, there is nothing at all to do, so make sure this is what you are looking for and then Shantaa won't disappoint. The first few minutes are a bit unsettling. Everyone is very serene, we were thinking it was going to be more like a yoga... More

So very grateful to Tripadvisor and all of the reviewers for steering us towards our decision to stay at Shantaa. What a special place! The resort manager, Fon, and her team were so very attentive, friendly and courteous. The Shantaa website states that the staff are not professionals, but they sure do a wonderful job making the guests feel at... More

After taking the night bus from Bangkok to Trat, being jipped by a song theow driver and being abandoned at the laem sok pier at 4am, and then being told that we may not be able to take the 9 am speedboat to Koh Kood, we actually began to question whether we'd made the right decision to go to such...

This is my second time here in both Koh Kood and Shantaa. First time was exactly one year ago. My hubby and I often go to Phuket, koh Samui, Bali type of places when we want a relaxing vaca to chill by the pool, looking over the sea, stroll around the local area...etc. My husband decided to surprise me last...

We wanted to stay somewhere really special during our travels in Thailand, and also somewhere relatively unspoiled by tourism. We found both here. It would be a shame to stay here if you are not really looking for what is offered by Shantaa or Koh Kood, so it may help to state what some may consider negatives: -This is not... More

As we pulled into Shantaa on the speedboat, my partner and I said, "That looks nice!" and then were pleasantly surprised to realise that it was our accommodation. The resort is beautifully set out in large gardens which overlook the sea and the villas feel really private. There are some sitting out areas and a small beach and, at the... More

I don't even no what to say. This is my favourite place in Thailand. I have been travelling over 2 monts in Thailand now and see very beautiful places. But there is no place like Shantaa! Staff here is so amazing. Place is so peaceful and beautiful. They take a good care of it and work hard. Just love it!... More

When our boat pulled into Shantaa, I could see the envy in everyone's eyes who wasn't staying. My partner was so in awe, he ended up leaving his bag on the boat which had his passport and all our money (I don't think there was an ATM on the island) We advised the staff who immediately contacted the boat and...

I have never before had breakfast, lunch and dinner the same place witout getting a little bored, butthat was not the case at Shantaa. On the contrary, we were always looking forward to the next meal. Would realy recomend Shantaa. There isn't a pool, which I know is a must for many families with children, but the beach and wather...
