I was alone without use of a moped and the entire staff made my week long stay unforgettable. The rooms were the best value out of any other "Free room with Diving package" that I personally sought out all options on Sairee beach. They sent to have me picked me up (free)after my search and THEY WERE THE BEST! My... More

It was like a 5 star hotel, members of staff where so helpful and friendly. The manager had an attitude on her but the other team members cancelled her out. More

Personally I wouldn't bother go to Koh Tao if I wasn't doing a diving course, which I did. We went with Ban's Diving Resort. The rooms we stayed in were pretty poor to be honest, no air con just a fan, it got very warm. We booked the course and accomodation in a package and it's good value overall. I... More

Absolutely fanstastic experience overall, after never having dived before we decided to give Bans a try after reading some of the reviews and so glad we did! We started our Open Water course with 3 other couples and our instructor Anthony, who I cant recommend enough! He is hilarious and made our diving what it was - lord of the... More

Even that Koh Tao is quite an active island, it wasn't easy to find any yoga places there...One of them is at Ban's. I have to say was quite impressed! The place is enormously beautiful with a great instructor. Started each of my day with a yoga class and was fully energized for the rest of the day. Highly recommended!!!!! More

Most organized, geared for divers with variety of dive masters to cater to all different nationalities. Best of all huge discount on diving package when staying at the hotel. 2 Dives including equipment and Drinks, biscuits for ZAR400-00. Getting to Koh Tao on slow boat is a mission as thousands of backpackers having the same idea. But alternative is speed... More

Rooms very nice , but staff not very helpful with one question i had or very friendly for that matter ... Also if you plan on using one of the 2 pools for relaxation forget about it as most of the time there is divers in the pool under instruction ... But if this don't bother you then its a... More

Recently myself & friend done our Open water diving course then went onto do our Advanced Open water. Our instructor John O'Brien (lil John) was fantastic! It was nice to have such a kind & understanding instructor as at times we were nervous & he totally put us at ease. The resort is conveniently situated, with short walk to a... More

this place is pretty cool. We dived with their 'sister' diving company called Sunshine Divers, and i liked this approach as it seemed we had smaller groups. I could be wrong though. This also meant we got a discount on the room. We went to check into the room, they were full for those basic rooms, so we got upgraded... More
