Summer Hostel is a gem amongst the hostel scene in Koh Tao. The staff are super helpful and friendly, and the atmosphere is very social without being party. I stayed in the AC dorm which had comfy beds with wrap-around curtains and large lockers per person. Showers were hot too, albeit not the strongest pressure, but this is expected on an island. The cafe next door is awesome as well! Overall, I’m very happy I stayed here and hope to return soon. I can 100% recommend this to solo travellers.

+relativ zentrale Lage (nicht im Trubel aber schnell dort & großer Supermarkt gegenüber) + Aufenthaltsbereich & Küche - starker Rauchgestank im Aufenthaltsraum (zieht in die Zimmer) - keine Handtücher inklusive - Toilette oft defekt - Atmosphäre eher schlecht nur zum Übernachten in Ordnung

We had a very mixed experience here. The location was good and the place itself was nice. However we experienced some rude, cold and ignorant encounters from the staff. The cleanliness was below all expectations. There was hair and dirt in and around the sink. And also empty water bottles and shower articles scattered everywhere like it was someone private room. There was sand in the shower all day. The bathroom wasn’t cleaned once during our stay. The hostel cafe was nice and fairly cheap⭐...

Die Zimmer waren NIE abgeschlossen, deswegen konnte jeder ein und ausgehen im Zimmer. Wirklich sauber fand ich’s jetzt nicht. Die Betten sind auch nicht die neusten & die Bettdecken sind die reinste Katastrophe. Fürs Leben ohne AC muss man auch gemacht sein, in den Zimmern ist es nämlich sehr warm. Die ältere Frau die an der Rezeption saß fand ich jetzt auch nicht ganz so freundlich. Der Mann war dafür ein richtig lieber !! Für KohTao halt nh billiges Hostel.Man sollte nicht viel erwa...

Bit of a walk from Saree beach but we came to appreciate that! We stayed in a private double room and it felt so overpriced, the bed was rock hard and there wasn’t really an atmosphere. I’d like to say you get what you pay for but….

Good hostel and value for money. We stayed in a mixed dorm room with a fan and the beds were comfortable and fit for purpose. Hostel staff were friendly and social. The only compliant would be they have a cockroach issue in the bathroom area. Showers & toilet were full of cockroaches and ran over my foot

Preis Leistung stimmt für mich. Mein Zimmer war sauber und das Hostel in einer guten Lage. Mich persönlich hat es ein bisschen gestört dass der außenbereich sofort an die straße gerichtet war. Somit konnte man ständig Roller und Autos vorbeifahren sehen und hören.

Really lovely staff and volunteers making a really good environment to be part of ! Next time I would book an AC room as the fans did not cool the room down enough, but it was manageable.

Really underrated hostel on Koh Tao Not super expensive which is hard to find in high season on the island Location is offs as well there is a mini mart across the street ,an atm and the beach is about a 10 minute walk. The rooms are pretty simpel but clean Really nice social atmosphere and the staff is incredibly kind

I slept in a private which was my nicest stay in Thailand! Clean with a cute balcony. It’s 15/10 min walk to the main area which I personally didn’t mind. If u want to do scuba diving do know most of the operators are at the pier so that’s 40 min walk or need to rent a bike.

After a 40 min walk from the pier you reach the Hostel. It is across a 24h supermarket and not to far away from the diving school of your choice. Check in is at 2pm and the rooms are clean. One encounter with a cockroach at early morning in the bathroom though.

Lovely hostel! Great atmosphere, thanks to two amazing volunteers who organize fun activities and create a very friendly, social vibe. The reception staff were also very nice and helpful. The downsides are that the hostel is a bit far from the beach, and the locker where you could store valuables was accessible from the street. There was also no proper space for your backpack and clothes. However, the lack of air conditioning was not a major issue for me.

Very Nice people and personel, very respectful and helpful. The rooms are small, but still spaceous enough. The beds have curtains so thats nice. The only bad thing was that the beds in the room we had were very hard, it was like sleeping on rock. Other than that, really good!
