The two platforms agree to within a tenth of a point across 159 reviews, which is the signal we look for. Scores that diverge between platforms usually mean one of them is thin.
Confirmed on Booking.com (9.5 from 144 reviews) and Agoda (9.7 from 15 reviews), checked 5 October 2026. Booking.com shows no official star rating for this property. Straight-line distances are from its Booking.com coordinates to OpenStreetMap points. Sub-scores and facilities read from the Booking.com property page. We have not stayed here.
9.5 on Booking.com from 144 reviews, 9.7 on Agoda from 15. Averaged, that is the highest score of anything we list on Koh Tao, and the sub-scores back it up: comfort and staff both 9.7, cleanliness and facilities both 9.6, wifi 9.4.
Read the sample size before you read the score. 159 combined reviews is the thinnest of any listing on this site, and only fifteen of them are Agoda’s. A 9.5 on 144 reviews is a real signal; a 9.7 on fifteen is barely one. Treat this as promising rather than proven.
It is three villas on the hillside above Chalok Baan Kao, each with its own pool, about 903 metres from Ao Chalok Ban Kao and 1.2km from the Mae Haad piers. Location scores 9.2, which for somewhere this far up a hill tells you guests thought the view was worth the road.
A deluxe villa was around ฿3,950 a night for 15 to 18 November 2026 (there was no price for 12 to 15 January 2027). Booking.com shows no official star rating, giving it a 4 out of 5 quality rating instead, which is Booking’s own assessment.
