One of the worst value place I’ve ever slept in my three years in Thailand, this erroneously self-styled “resort” is bare bones. We stayed in their $45 bungalow and discovered only after check-in (and paying the obligatory non-refundable 50% down payment online) that our bungalow consisted of a broken fan and a bed with a mosquito net (which won’t prevent... more

I think other reviews have summed it up fairly, the views and design of the rooms is great but the isolation (10 minute walk unlit across a beach and rocks) soon becomes ver ywearing and I found the service here to be lousy. The pick up from the ferry for myself and another couple didn't happen, we had to ring... more

I'm trying my best to put this together. Viewpoint resort is a place for you if you don't mind the wilderness. Not much luxury there, there's no safety deposit box, minibar, wifi or even TV. The room looks good but you will be frequently visits by bugs, spiders and lizards. Also, it is situated up in the hills. So by... more

The pool villa was outstanding with a wonderful bathroom and plunge pool. The staff was very helpful and attentive. The only downside were the mosquitoes around the outdoor dining area. The restaurant was also of very good quality and excellent value. more

We stayed for 4 nights at Viewpoint's luxury pool villas. It has good and bad points and some things you should know before you go so thought it about time I contributed to Trip Advisor rather than just take away info! Viewpoint "Resort" is not really a resort (no public pool) but certainly not a hotel either. Located in a... more

A little hard to get to, but more than worth the effort. What a beautiful place! Excellent stay. I visited Ko Tao with my oldest son and we had a great time. more

My wife and i are frequent travelers to Thailand and on this short visit we decided to go to Koh Tao for the first time.We chose the Viewpoint resort as the location suggested something special. When we first got there we had to walk up many steps which is not a problem for us as we are fairly fit but... more

We had 3 weeks away trying to do the backpacking thing but also wanted a romantic relaxing holiday so we did the back packing up North and then made our way to the islands for some pampering. We were on a tight budget so I was trying to book the best luxury holiday room for £20 (never gonna happen I... more
