Peter & Joyce Alger 2009-06-28	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad This our 3rd visit to Koh Tao as we live just down the road in Hua-Hin. Fab hotel have decided to go back in October. Had pool room - spotlessly clean - love the free newspaper and afternoon tea every day and the coffee corner. We could walk from our room to the pool in seconds. The pool area is fab and spotlessly clean - staff throughout the hotel brilliant could not do enough for you - easy 5 minute to town -superb and interesting menu at hotel. On the minus side - no shoes allowed around the pool so mind the ants around feet and at midday tiles get very very hot. Our booking included breakfast, which in fact is very limited - we wondered why you had 2 thick slices of cheap charlie white bread as we only ever eat brown bread and heard many people say the same but you don t have any choice. Also, coffee is limited to only 1 small cup after which you have to pay for more cups and we found we were spending just on extra breakfast coffee 280 per day. On our last night we had dinner at the restaurant and was very disappointed as the menu is fab but when the food came to our table even though it looked good, tasted good it was stone cold. Even so we will be going back again.	Excellant
Nitsan Kollet 2009-06-23	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Beautiful place and great service. The restaurant is recommended. Very romantic and luxurious.	Smooth and easy.
David & Alys Moore 2009-06-22	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad First visit to Koh Tao island. Sensi is in a good position, on outskirts of town, able to enjoy the quiet, but able to walk to shops etc. Accomodation lovely in individual cottages, enclosed bedroom & bathroom, also outside living area & day bed. Large gecko in bathroom, but no problems. Restaurant built at watersedge.	Excellent, as always.
Paul Cardy 2009-06-19	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Stayed in the fan beach hut (number 15, by far the nicest one IMO) and really impressed. Hut was beautiful (completely done in dark wood, raised on stilts with balcony around three sides, table to eat at outside with light and coffee/tea facilities hidden at the back), hut was right on beach as promised, food was great (and they brought it to our room one night so we could eat it on the balcony). great location right next to main village but far enough to not hear anything but the sea (well, and fan!) at night. Good snorkling on the shallow beach outside (and apparently there s a little shipwreck in shallow water to snorkle over too). Nice (big) pool on hillside.	No problems, would use again.

Ryan 2009-06-01	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Clean, secluded, and quiet. Located near the pier, so another beach may be a better choice for someone wanting to swim and snorkel where they stay. Five or ten minute walk to many dive shops, restaurants, and internet cafes.	Excellent, no complaints.
Taelor B Feinberg 2009-05-08	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad This resort was absolutely amazing! I would stay there again in a heartbeat. We stayed in the seaview bungalow #1, which was beautiful and perfect for 3 people. The restaurant was also great! The complimentary breakfast options were great, and the lunch and dinner options were fantastic. The only complaint I have is the location of the resort in relation to the ferry port. This made the water a little poluted, however we still enjoyed swimming in it when we weren t exploring other beaches.	Fine and efficient.

Olga Land 2009-04-18	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad + Хорошее обслуживание, каждый день приносят яблоки и завареный чай. Уборка и смена постельного белья и полотенец каждый день. Уютная большая терасса с диваном и стиликом с креслами и удачно расположенный кондиционер. Он не сдувает. - Местоположение неудачное, рядом порт, и рабочим в зависимости от направления ветра приходится очищать пляж от солярки. Заход в воду очень тяжелый, мелко очень долго и острые кораллы на которые невозможно встать, так как они острые, приходится ползти на руках. Бассейн далеко, если ты живешь в Garden Villa , так же в них нет шкафа и вся одежда валяется на полу. Более, чем скромный завтрак - на выбор, или яичница с двумя пережаренными тонюсенкими кусочками бекона, или рисовый суп, или мюсли. Сок и кофе. Вторая чашка кофе уже за свой счет.
Marc de Vries 2009-04-17	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad The first thing that made Sensi special was that the roofs of all cottages were made of straw as opposed to the corrugated metal of most other places. Combined with the polished wood interior and outside showers, this gave a very friendly and tropical atmosphere. The service was wonderful, especially towards our three children. Plenty of towels, free use of linnen bags, straw mats and a well stocked mini-bar. Wonderful view over the bay from our large wooden veranda. We had reserved a family bungalow that consisted of two connected rooms, of which only one had aircon. While this worried us a bit since April is the hottest time of the year, the aircon provided enough cooling for both rooms that the extra fan was not needed. The food was very good (we particularly enjoyed the yoghurt with fresh fruit and muesli as a choice for the included breakfast)and the prices for Western food reasonable. The Thai food was clearly adjusted to the Western palate (not so spicy) and the prices a bit on the high side, but probably not more than at any other comparable resort. Sensi has a beautiful new cascading swimming pool, (partly still under construction, but that didn t disturb at all since it was located a few meters below the line of sight) which pleasantly surprised us since it wasn t listed on their website. The resort is well maintained, and in my view comfortably meets (if not exceeds)the three star accolade for which it s advertised. The location is at the southern tip of the bay where unfortunately oil (from the nearby ferry pier) and sewage collected because of the prevailing currents. We didn t expect the bay to be so polluted and that was the only (but very significant) thing that disappointed. However, part of Sensi stretches around the rocks away from the bay where crystal clear water and beautiful coral don t disappoint. Sensi offers its guests snorkling gear free of charge. Taking a longtail boat for snorkling trips around the island (not from the resort, which at THB 4,000/day was double the price) and having done some exclellent dives with MV Watersports (located 100m along the beach), made this one of the more memorable stays in our 16 years in Thailand.	Excellent, no problems at all with the booking.
