We really enjoyed our stay with Captain Nemo. The location is great, located in the same village all of the piers are located. It is a 10 minute walk to Sairee Beach, where there are a ton of restaurants and shops to walk around in. The owners are extremely helpful. They will give you tips on where to eat and... More

We stayed in Captain Nemo for 6 nights. It is very well located in the center of Mae Haat, next to everything, such as shops, good restaurants, etc. It is not far either from Saree beach, (approx 10 min walking). The rooms are very nice, clean, fully equiped and quiet. The owners are very nice and helpful. They helped us... More

Getting to Koh Tao took us almost 24 hours including a night's stay at Koh Samui. By the time we arrived, my wife and I were so exhausted. Luckily, we made our bookings well in advance and were greeted by Som outside 7-11 near the Mae Haad main pier. The guest house was just a couple of minutes walk away... More

We were accommodated at very short notice. Provided with massive amounts of info and maps, not only for Koh Tao but also Chumpon and Bangkok. The room was ideal, the bed was definitely one of the most comfortable we have had whilst travelling. The location is perfect, the whole island is pretty much within walking distance - the walk to...

This is not the place you go to for views, luxury or romance. Its definitely a budget guest house, but the rooms are clean, bed is comfortable and there's AC. The staff is also very informative and helpful. If I was on a trip with my girlfriend I probably wouldn't stay here, but it's definitely good for friends trying to... More

This place is clean, centrally located and great value for money. On arrival, they take a good half hour to explain about the island and different trip options with zero attempts to sell you anything. Just give you the info and invitation to book through them. For the first time in Thailand, these guys actually give you discounts from normal... More

Lovely clean room, excellent facilities and the customer service was unbeatable. Good location near the harbour and plenty of nice resturants and bars nearby. Was a nice touch having a large selection of DVDs you could borrow. Enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend!
