Heavenly view from our room and the bathroom. Bed was spacious and comfortable. Room was very cosy anf the staff was very hospitable. The only downside was that we couldn’t smoke in the balcony but other than that no complaints

Jesús was a legend. Such a nice, friendly and genuine person. Honestly, it's a shame he wasn't around more (because as the owner, he's busy with many things) because every time he was around the whole place lit up. Great atmosphere and super good place to get to know people. 12/10

I stayed for 5 nights and had a wonderful experience. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach. The property is exceptionally clean, and the staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The complimentary breakfast is fantastic – everything I needed to start the day off right. If I ever find myself back on Koh Tao, I will definitely be staying here again!

I extended my stay here because I could not see myself going anywhere else (or even leaving the island, if I am being honest). Everything was perfect - from the location (not too close to the buzz, but not far either), the views (nothing beats having morning coffee overlooking the jungle or being minutes away from the beach to enjoy a fruit bowl), the cleanliness (unmatched how the space was kept clean), and even the perks (the daily transport to key spots was a top tier service). I have raved about this place to other backpackers interested in visiting Koh Tao and I don't think I will ever stop.

I was supposed to stay there for 3 days, and I ended up staying for more than a week. I already recommended this hostel to everyone that I met that is planning to come to Koh Tao. My stay was just perfect and I would definitely come back as soon as possible. Amazing staff and owners that make you feel like at home. Best hostel so far.

Perfect Island Getaway – Stunning Views & Incredible Hosts! 🌴✨ I can’t recommend Villa Mar highly enough! Located on the peaceful southern end of Koh Tao, this villa feels like a private slice of paradise — far enough from the crowds to truly unwind, yet still close enough to great beaches and restaurants. The views are absolutely breathtaking — every morning we woke up to sweeping ocean panoramas that looked straight out of a postcard. Watching the sunset from the terrace was pure magic. The villa itself is beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. What really made our experience special were the hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, offering great local recommendations and always being just a message away. Their attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel completely at home.

I recommend this hotel! It’s brand new, super clean (which was really important to me), and just overall a great place to stay. It’s not right on the main street, but it’s only a short walk from everything and if you’ve got a scooter, it’s perfect! The girls who work at the hotel and even their taxi driver are the nicest!
