Koyao Bay Pavilions - Beach Resort and Pool Villas

What a pleasure Pavilions is to visit. Wonderful bungalows nestled in forest with easy access to the beach. Special shout out to the chefs who provided some of the best Thai dishes I’ve had. The management is very friendly and supportive. Many thanks to them all.

We stayed 9 days in a Beach Suite and we enjoyed every moment of it! The hospitality and kindness of everyone of the management and the staff, the quiet and peaceful environment, the super tasty and varied food, the beautiful bungalows, the gorgeous small islands around, you name it. We will return for sure !

We had an incredible 5 nights here over Christmas 2023 with George and his wife Bee. We stayed in 'Mai Pai Cottage' which was perfect for our family. We have three teenager children and the space was incredible. The location is pure bliss and quite a treat following the rigours of Bangkok for 5 days. An unassuming entrance that just keeps giving at every turn. You can choose to be in you cottage which is nestled in lush green surroundings which provided shade where needed from the sun and a swimming pool that felt was exclusively ours to use, or you can walk the short distance to your private beach which had the most incredible views of Koh Nok and beyond. The location was paradise and is honestly the best accommodation we have ever stayed and we have travelled to many places in the world. Although slightly more expensive than our usual budget this was well worth it. The staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with warmth and smiles which felt genuine. The restaurant was amazing and the food was incredible that in my view would suit any pallet. George and bee paid particular attention to all our needs and nothing was difficult to arrange from Taxi's, Bike hire or use of the Kayaks to paddle to Koh Nok on Christmas day. We hired bikes for the day and I have to say Koh Yao Noi is an incredibly beautiful island which we fell in love with and particularly enjoyed more than other islands we visited on this trip. I cannot rate this place highly enough and would definitely visit again. Thank you George and Bee

This place was amazing, from start to finish it was a little piece of paradise. George, Bee and the team were so welcoming and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble, we were so looked after. The Tarra villa we stayed in was perfect, including the pool, cleanliness and location ( a little walk from restaurant and beach, and very secluded). Food was amazing, catering both for Thai and western tastes to high quality. We were sad to leave and hope to return one day. If you are looking for peace and tranquility in an authentic Thai location, I would highly recommend.

We spent a wonderful week at this gorgeous place. The beach villas are perfectly designed and offer the highest comfort. The living room is actually open air and offers various sitting and lying possibilities, only a few meters from the beach. Also it is like all the beaches in Thailand a public one, you will hardly come across another person. From there you can paddle with the kayak to the amazing tiny island Koh Nok. Last but not least it was the lovely staff who made our stay even more precious. Georges, Bee and their team are just perfect hosts. I have also to mention the excellent restaurant, which offers a very good selection at a very fair price. Even the prices of the wine list are not demanding at all. We will be back for sure.

LITERALLY AMAZING! Outlived my expectations (but that might be because my husband booked the Pavillions! So I’d done less scoping!) The Accomodation is expansive. Huge bedrooms, two bathrooms and a full kitchen in our Maipai cottage as well as a separate veranda/pavilion with hammocks, a huge table, two seating areas overlooking a lovely pool shared with one other cottage. George and Bea were so helpful and arranged a tour for us and were on hand for lots of advice. A little walk to the restaurants and bars on the nearby beach or up on the road, would probably be no trouble without kids or older than ours (11&8) Taxis are readily available as long as you know where you want to go. Best bet would be mopeds or bikes which you can hire from the hotel. The bread at Breakfast felt like I was cheating in Asia. SOOOO good. The on-site restaurant was fabulous but there are also lots of other great places to eat on the island which is extremely peaceful and stunning. Much less party and more authentic island life.
