6/10 Good

Things to watch for. Upon check in there’s a 5% charge on the bill for using a credit card. Unless you are a series rock climber there’s nothing much to do. The longboats try and rip you off. Take cash as I didn’t see any ATMS and a couple of times paying for food/dinner cash only. That said rooms were very clean staff lovely. Would I go back… No

We loved the location. Very secluded from the neighboring Raily and Ao Nang beaches. The room was very comfortable and AC worked great. They also had a decent breakfast buffet and restaurants. The front staff was nice, but the restaurant attendants could be more attentive to customers. Transportation from the resort was also not easy to get. Although they had a dedicated long boat, we rarely saw it near the resort and you had to pay extra if you did not have at least 6 passengers. I feel this should be included with the stay.

Private long tail boat access with free breakfast. Close to West Beach Railey. Don’t miss the 4 island cruise with snorkeling and Thai lunch with Get Your Guide. Tonsai Bay Resort has beautiful scenery too.

Stayed in the superior semi detatched cottage. This was towards the back of the complex where the entry/exit gate was. The rooms were lovely & spacious, decorated clean & moden style. Lovely shower with hot water. We arranged to be met at the airport by staff, driven to Ao Nang pier & boat to the hotel which all went well. The place was beautiful and very peaceful. We had one problem with the accommodation that night the place was full of ants by the doors and windows inside the property, these ants bite. There were gaps in the sliding patio doors and it was the same for the property next door (think it was 116 & 117) We complained to front desk and they moved us immediately. We were moved down closer to reception where the cottages were up about 4 stairs and not completely ground level. They also had much better fitting doors. Also beware that due to this being a very quiet resort if you want to get the boat to any other beaches or Ao nang for any trips its 800 bhat each way, I had a couple of trips booked and had to pay x 4 including the trips unless you can get enough people to share costs. Most other places it 100 - 150 bhat. Also check which water you use from mini bar some are free some are pay for. That said the staff were lovely, great breakfast cooked to order with plenty of choice. The snack bar/restaurants were excellent with great menu choices. I would definitely stay there again but not book any trips from there and stay in newer cottages or sea view.

We enjoyed our stay at Tonsai. The location is stunning, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. If you are a climber this is the place for you.

This was a really nice hotel, super close to the beach and climbing area. The AC worked great and room was very clean. The staff were very nice and were able to accommodate cleaning our room at a specific time since I was sick for 2 days in the room. Breakfast was provided and had lots of great options with an amazing view.

Beautiful but must take long boat to get there!

Very modern and lovely rooms/cottages. Staff very nice. Close to climbing and fun beach bar and kayaking. It's a little tricky to get here. You have to take a long boat from the Ao Nang area to Railay beach and then go to Tonsai Bay from there.

A fabulous stay.... Waking up on a bay, jungle-like environment in a peaceful and quiet place was the best experience. While walking through the resort and the bay you'll see the cheeky monkeys playing around the roofs and trees. The staff was extremely helpful and kind, we thought it won't be easy to get to the resort by boat but the staff planned our airport pick-up and boat and everything went smoothly -even at night time! If you don't want to leave the Bay to get to AO Nang beach for the evening, don't worry you get beach bar and other places to get drinks and food until 11pm. We truly enjoyed the time in Tonsai Bay and we highly recommend this property.

Better go somewhere else

Bungalow was oké, regarding the price. The nature is stunning. If they clean the the garden, they just dump the plastic trash on the the ditches. We all got food poisoning from the restaurant. Check the restaurant reviews on Google, 17 food poisoning cases the last 3 months. I wish we have red that before. We went for breakfast and dinner next door.

5 nights at Tonsai and I would definitely go back. Room was quiet, clean and comfortable. Restaurant was good. Ocean front breakfast was so peaceful. Off season so only handful of people around. Climbing access on the beach cant be beat. Definately checkout old Basecamp and local food options in jungle above resorts.

2/10 Poor

I did not like that the 5% surcharge for using credit card for hotel room fees wqs not disclosed up front when booking via expedia. 5% is alot to charge on room fee espcially when it is not disclosed in advance. Unacceptable and dishonest by hotel and expedia not to make this clear when booking the rooms.
