Ko Yao Yai Pet-friendly Vacations

This was me and my husband's first trip to Thailand. We had a wonderful experience as a whole. The resort was beautiful and is surrounded by greenery and is well maintained. It's also central to everything with plenty of food options within walking distance. The room was lovely and the private pool was divine! It provided us with the private experience we were seeking. The staff were beyond amazing, helpful and friendly. They were always happy to greet and assist our every question and need. The only minor thing is that I would've liked to see a gluten free bread station at the breakfast buffett like most resorts worldwide do being that I'm gluten intolerant. The staff however were lovely in guiding me to a supermarket that stocked gluten free products which was about 15 mins from the resort. I would definitely recommend the resort and we would come back and stay in the future when visiting Thailand.

It was my son's birthday during our stay, and the staff decorated our room and gave him a card and cake. Everyone was wonderful and it is such a beautiful resort.

Love the access to the soft sandy beach. The pool side rooms added a perfect touch. Happy Hour drinks are the best!

Bandara Pool Villas was amazing. The Ao Yon villa was luxurious and picturesque. My family loved our stay in this one-of-a-kind suite. The staff was courteous and helpful. Small hiccups like a malfunctioning air conditioner and ants near the garbage was quickly remedied. Food at the Sumpao restaurant onsite was delicious although priced for tourists. My family would thoroughly recommend this property.

Great location - staff were super friendly. Would definitely stay again

Staff was very helpful and friendly, however hotel is old and needs a serious renovation. It is clean and safe though, and everyone was taking good care of us.

Although the property was in a beautiful location I wouldn't rate this property 5 stars. I could hear my neighbors conversation through the walls. The power went out multiple times. The TV was not useful. The bathtub malfunctioned numerous times. My room service order was provided with no utensils. I was interrupted by staff on numerous occasions when attempting to sleep. I was not provided my advertised discount for food and beverage for being a one key gold member. The male staff was not friendly only the female staff seemed to welcome me. One of the nights someone was trying to open my door while sleeping and it scared the crap out of me because I'm a solo traveler. Upon check in/out I felt rushed. Also, the food was very mediocre. I also found that the air-conditioning was not acceptable for the temperatures and the bathroom area never cooled down at all it felt like a constant sauna in there. I wouldn't stay at this location in the future.

It was near the airport and we didn’t hear any planes flying by, very quiet. We also saw the resort while on our plan taking-off. Outside the resort seemed to be a lot of restaurant but we didn’t spend enough time to walk around to enjoy them. While I was there the water park was closed. The front desk said they should be open in October and it actually looked fun, as a 39 year old I would go. Breakfast was delicious, staff was wonderful, resort was clean, they had a shuttle running continuously, I actually enjoyed my stay. Well done Splash Beach resort, well done!

We returned to Layan because of the services and friendly staff and we will return again. Thank you for making our stay so lovely.

The rooms are really comfortable, the staff is very friendly and supportive, the beach is beautiful, and the location is just 20 minutes from the airport.
