More than just a place to stay, Sairee Cottage Resort is part of Koh Tao’s living history.

We are a locally owned, family-run resort, proudly cared for by generations of a Koh Tao family.

Our roots on the island go back to the early days, when our family arrived by sailboat from Koh Samui and made Sairee Beach their home. In 1989, the first small bungalows were built by one of the family’s daughters, marking the beginning of Sairee Cottage Resort.

Over the years, the resort has grown naturally while keeping the same warm and welcoming spirit. Today, we are located in the heart of Sairee Beach, making it easy to explore Koh Tao while enjoying a cozy and comfortable stay.

We believe in simple island living, friendly hospitality, and making our guests feel at home. Whether you’re here to relax, dive, or discover the island, we’re always happy to welcome you.

Great food and quick service. The mango smoothie was probably one of the freshest I’ve had and you can genuinely tell it was made with fresh mangoes. Pineapple fried rice was a hit. And the other food my friends got was amazing too.

Absolutely love this place. Superb location, great vibe & friendly, efficient staff.<br><br>The pizzas are great if you want a break from Thai food but for me, the chicken Khao Soi was the absolute winner. Everything we ordered was genuinely superb though.<br><br>We ate here 3 times in our 10 days on Koh Tao, kinda says it all!

This restaurant has a wonderful atmosphere with a wide view of the beach. The food and drinks we ordered were delicious, and the smoothies were especially refreshing. The staff provided great service. For a beachfront restaurant with such a great vibe, we think the prices are actually quite reasonable—better than many similar places we've been to!

Excellent restaurant! We had their amazing grilled meat with 2 skewers, curry with tofu, papaya salad and pizza. Everything was just great. We will come again.
