Ik zou er niet terug gaan. Vieze badkamer, er komt een lucht van af waar je bijna over je nek gaat. Geen gordijnen of iets van privacy. De kluisjes onder de bedden waren allemaal kapot. Over het algemeen zeer slecht

Was helemaal prima, fijne kamers en top locatie. Zwembad was ook heel fijn. Echter werd er weinig schoongemaakt dus waren de kamers vies.

Gutes Hostel, das einzige was ich schade finde ist, dass es keine Vorhänge am Bett gibt. Dadurch fühlt man sich etwas weniger wohl aber mit netten Leuten geht auch das :)

unfortunately we don’t recommend this hostel, our room was dirty when we arrived with dirty boxers in the bathroom and used contact lenses on my bed. The room was extremely damp, all of our stuff including our bedding was constantly wet. Out of the 4 lockers in the room only one of them closed. staff were concerned and polite when we raised these issues but nothing was done during our stay.

If you are coming here to get your diving certificate, I would recommend it since the hostel is very dive oriented. If you are not diving pick something else. The pool is only for divers, one of the beds we had was harder than concrete. No curtains to the beds and dirty floor.

Prima hostel, niet erg sociaal. Ik sliep onder de airco en hier werd ik ziek van. Het is handig om de airco ergens anders te hangen in de kamer. Bijvoorbeeld boven de deur bij binnenkomst

Echt een top hostel! Aardig en meedenkend personeel. Omdat ik vroeg in de ochtend moest duiken, kon ik niet op tijd uitchecken. Ik mocht mijn tas laten staan en na het duiken nog even gebruikmaken van de kamer, super fijn! De ligging is perfect: direct bij de pier en ideaal ten opzichte van alle duikscholen. De badkamer was ook schoon.

Höfliches Personal aber im Allgemeinen sehr unpersönlich und distanziert. Kaum Ausstattung im Zimmer. Harte Betten, dreckiges Bad und Ameisen im Zimmer. Ein gute Aspekt war, dass es keine Vorhänge gab und man somit etwas mit den Zimmerpartnern connecten konnte.

Leuke, relaxte en vriendelijke sfeer. Personeel is behulpzaam en chill. De meerderheid van de reizigers daar is er ook om te duiken. Dus dat zorgt voor connectie, maar dan ook minder ruimte voor andere sociale activiteiten. Stel je verwachtingen dus af op wat je zelf plant te doen op Koh Tao. De bijhorende duikschool is top: zeer vriendelijke en professionele instructeurs, ze nemen de tijd om alles goed uit te leggen en zorgen voor een goede duikervaring! Bedankt!

Really enjoyed our stay at Isla Tortuga, pool was being repaired most days so we couldn’t use it - it is what it is. Staff were super friendly & we also booked on the DSD course which was a class experience. Would recommend to those staying in Koh Tau to stay at Isla Tortuga

Good place to stay. Don’t need to be into diving to stay here. It was clean and close to the main strip about a 20 minute walk. No curtains on the beds but I was with a group so it didn’t matter. The mattresses were hard but not the worst. The pillows are not nice. Overall would recommend this place it’s clean and convenient
