Mayalay Resort-Green Hotel

Relaxing resort on a beautiful island. The staff were fantastic. We absolutely had a lovely time at Mayalay.

During our two-week trip to Thailand, we stayed in four different hotels (ranging from 2,000 to 6,000 THB per night), and this is the only one we can truly say we would come back to. The vibe here is absolutely amazing. People in Thailand are generally very friendly, but here you can really feel that the kindness is genuine, not just professional. The massage was wonderful:) highly recommend. We actually had a more expensive and worse massage on Phi Phi. I don’t understand the negative reviews about the breakfast. Yes, there is no typical buffet or huge selection, but everything they serve is very tasty and well-prepared. I recommend the potatoes with eggs and bacon, or boiled rice with pork. For dessert, I had pancakes with peanut butter and strawberry jam - delicious! This is the cleanest beach on the island, and the snorkeling right in front of the hotel is the best we’ve experienced. They provide free masks and fins, so you can easily enjoy the underwater world. If you forget SPF, you can buy it at the reception for 500 THB, the same one we bought in Ao Nang for 720 THB. Drinking water is unlimited and free. The sunbeds may not be the most comfortable, but there are very cozy bean bags which make up for it. In my opinion, this is the best hotel on the island. Coco Cottage doesn’t have a nice beach (it’s more of a reef area), and Thanya is a large resort with many people, so you don’t get the same peaceful and private atmosphere as here. As for the restaurant: the pizza is tasty and the cocktails are great. I also really appreciated the eco-friendly approach, with no cheap plastic sunbeds that would ruin the aesthetic. Highly recommended ✨

In my opinion, simply filling the holes in the walls and repainting them white instead of that ugly beige would already be enough, and no one would lower the rating because of it 🙂

Good location. Accommodation was perfectly adequate but the grounds could have been better maintained

Property was a bit tired looking
