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.
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.
Delacquis Karine 2009-06-09	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Merci pour votre accueil.L hotel est tres sympa.Le personnel aussi, ainsi que les serveuses, adorables avec nos enfants. A bientot	Reservation rapide et efficace! Tres bon hotel
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.
dunlop 2009-04-19	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad fantastic location, excellent food, helpful staff, beautiful pool area, pool attendent Amm, great fun & very helpful. would definitely recommend this hotel. paradise!	excellent & easy.
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.
birger winbladh 2009-04-17	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Nicely situated at the end of the beach and well maintained. Good restaurant on the beach with pleasant bar area and relax unit. Staff very friendly and competent. Good value for money. Tour booking, travel booking and booking help for other hotels on other island worked fine	Smart and easy. Obtained very good price.
Daniel Tobar-Richter 2009-04-16	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Great location, beautiful landscape, nice food! The only negative comment is the beach next to the hotel... too close to the pier and not very clean...
bror stephan alveflo 2009-04-05	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We spent three weeks in thailand and this hotel was by far outstanding if you like a very nice paradise bungalow/building. Excellent service and very good food. A very nice big swimming pool and a good bar. The only negative thing is that the beach is a close to the boot traffic which makes the water a bit dirty.	Excellent
Jacob Kaheaokalani Williams 2009-04-02	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad The hotel was wonderful. The room was just as is pictured on the website and the view from the restaurant and beach is great. The daily paper along with tea and cookies really made us feel catered to. The reception was very helpful and the resort is walking distance to many restaurants and shops! Overall great stay at Sensi!
susan Doggett 2009-03-13	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad fantastic resort, and great staff. Their new pool is amazing.	perfect
Victor Estalella 2009-03-13	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We stayed in a romantic suite and it was incredible! Really nice views, comfortable bungalow and good staff. Planning to come back soon...
Rame 2009-03-12	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad excellent rapport qualité/prix Typiquement Thai Services excellents : internet gratuit, bibliothèque, voiturage ...	facile, rapide, efficace
russo 2009-03-06	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Very beautiful and relaxing hotel.Very well situated: on the beach, near the main town (3minutes walking) but without any noise. The bungalow family was nice,with plenty of attention (tea, fruits, flowers on the bed, light for the night,pareo, rabane, mosquito repellent...)very well decorated,2 showers in the bathroom.I was well surprised by the marvellous and great swimming pool (because I didn t noted there was a swimming pool in this hotel. The personnel was attentive and very professionnal.That was fabulous!I recommend the Sensi paradise Beach resort.	The booking service is efficent and very professional.Nothing to claim.Only one thing to say:we didn t had the number phone of the hotel to ask the road to explain to the taxi.You should given the number phone of the hotel with the adress once the reservation made.Otherwise nothing to add.
L.Bovenschen 2009-03-06	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Again a very, very nice resort with everything you can wish for. A friendly and helpfull staff. Beautiful bungalows and a even more beautiful swimmimg pool. Compared to 4 years ago when we stayed at the same resort it even became better and more beautiful.
Johanna 2009-02-25	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Great romantic hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff. We had the romantic house with sea view in the first row to the sea. Really great! Especially the daybed was a great thing to relax. The was a newspaper service in the morning and tea service in the afternoon. The room was always clean. The hotel is just few minutes walking distance to the ferry pier but you will be picked up by the hotel staff on your arrival.	Good information and good service.
Max Bergmann 2009-02-23	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad very excellent service,nice hotel and perfect atmosphere. i booked again,right after i came back from there.	also perfektly organised
Varangkana V. 2009-02-08	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Very good service
CHRETIEN 2009-02-03	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Very good situation, near the village, the room 19 was very nice and we passed an excellent holidays in sensi paradise. All people of the resort was very gentle.	very good
Li Jing Jing 2009-02-02	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We don t want to leave at all! It s A PARADISE!! we took a family seaview villa, 6000 B per night. But it s definetly worthy it! We love the banglow! So deligate designing! So convenint location! too comfortable! the bathroom is perfect! everything in the room needed are prepared, free Sa-li, free hat, free parasol, etc...drink and snacks are not free but there are many you can choose from. Food here is very good taste! pity there are many flies....but flies on the island anywhere... BTW, next to Sensi there is the Charm Churee Villa, I personally think Sensi has better accommendation and more unique and sweet design, but charm has a you-can t-miss dinner place, a 360 degree open air see and sky view platform reaching over the sea. So my suggestion is stay at sensi, but eat dinner next door. :) Sensi is highly recommended in Lonly Planey, if you go you will know why.	Good!
xiong ying 2009-01-29	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad hotel is good.but check out time is not good.because check out time is 10:00 am/per day.but we choice boat time is 3pm,we have to wait a long time ,and nothing to do.
sarah faria 2009-01-17	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad This was the second time I stayed at Sensi and it was even better than the first time. They built a beautiful pool since last year. The bungalows and the service are unbelievable. I will continue to stay at this resort every time I visit Koh Tao.
Tony Holding 2009-01-09	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad If you are looking for that picture perfect hotel with staff and facilities to match then look no further than this fantastic Hotel. We only stayed for 4 days as had previously organised seeing more of Thailand, alas. The stilted huts are ideally situated within palm trees and either sited close to the private beach or glorious swimming pool, both being less than 50 yrds from the main reception area. The staff are simply perfect in everyway and cater for your every whim. The food ( both Thai and Western) is second to none) and not expensive ( 100 bhat for a pud thai) The local nightlife isn t huge but you have sariee beach 10 mins away and £1 in a taxi which has beach bars to die for. Overall i would rate this hotel the best we have stayed in anywhere in the world 9/10	Good information about this hotel and great service.
Charlotte Poulsen 2009-01-09	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We had a reasonable stay as our room was located far away next to the road so there was a lot of traffic. When you travel alone with a little boy 5 years old that is not very nice, also I did not find any undertandig by the reception to this problem. The place i beautiful but overpriced, I must admit that I was disappointed especially as the beach is very dirty. The restaurant was good.
Fredrik Oscarson 2009-01-07	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Overall a nice resort with great bungalows. However, they are currently renovating (and building new) bungalows which they did not inform of prior to booking and which gave some disturbance. Most of the staff were very friendly with a few exceptions (including a very rude front-desk manager) which gave the stay quite an unpleasant feel to it. The New Year s dinner was a joke - bad food, bad atmosphere and rude service and at a very high price.
Rick Woodham 2009-01-04	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad This hotel was just average. The staff was friendly enough but we felt like the price of our stay wasn t a good value. We had the cottage and again, it was nice enough, but not worth what we paid. This hotel location is good. The food in the hotel is only average. Would consider staying there again during low season prices or specials; but not the high season prices.	Great, as always.
HANSL ANTON DAHLMANN 2008-12-28	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad OUR FLIGHT ON BANKOK AIRWAYS WAS DELAYED FROM PHUKET AND WE COULD NOT CATCH THE FERRY.WE INFORMED THE HOTEL BUT WERE CHARGED FOR THE ROOM ANYWAY.WHEN WE DID ARRIVE IT WAS POURING WITH RAIN BUT THE HOTEL PICK UP WAS ON TIME AND ALL STAFF WERE VERY HELPFULL IN KEEPING OUR LUGGAGE DRY.THE ROOM WAS RUSTIC BUT VERY COMFORTABLE AND CLEAN,THE LIGHTING COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER.THER ARE HUGE MOSQUITOES,BUT THE BEDS HAVE NETS WHICH I SUGGEST YOU USE.THE FOOD WAS GOOD ANDTHE STAFF GREAT,POSSITION WAS BIT DISSAPOINTING AS IT IS IN THE HARBOUR BAY,AND THERE WERE MORE SCEINIC PLACES TO BE.BUT I WOULD STAY HERE AGAIN IF THE LOCATION WAS DIFFERENT,OUR ROOM WAS ALSO SET BACK FAR FROM THE BEACH AND WE DID NOT REALY HAVE A GOOD VIEW	ALL IN ORDER NO HASSELS
Hieu Trieu 2008-11-18	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad It is paradise here! Our room (312) was absolutely amazing, the decor was just beautiful and the view, breathtaking! They had a free breakfast promotion during our stay and it was fabulous! We had a wonderful time and would stay here again (if we can afford it). Highly recommended for honeymooners :)	Very good
casey fowler 2008-11-06	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Absolutely beautiful location and accommodation. This resort was the highlight of our stay in Thailand. The staff were wonderful and helpful. The restaurant food was delicious and the veiw at sunset magnificent. Close to the main pier so only a ten min walk gets you to all the action. Highly reccomend this resort to everyone who wants a relaxing peacful resort but still close enough to the main areas of the island.	Awesome
Willem Andre Germishuizen 2008-10-15	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad The hotel is a bit more pricey than others, but I can highly recommend it. You can snorkel to a shipwreck directly from the beach, and it is located close to town. I stayed in a superior beach bungalow, with hot water and aircon, which was good. There wasn t a uninterrupted seaview (you could see the sea through the trees), but it was very close to the beach. The only downside is that breakfast wasn t included. I suggest going into town for breakfast - it is cheaper and you have a bigger choice.	Very efficient: quick response and hassle-free booking
CHEN SHANSHAN 2008-10-04	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Sensi Paradise, like paradise. For the first time, I was deeply touched by the fantastic scenery and warming smile. It s a place you can put your heart down and enjoy the peace. For our honeymoon, the hotel prepare us a flower bed.It s so so so sweet.	Very convenient and considerate.
Vaike Neeme 2008-09-07	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad very friendly staff, yummy food, very peaceful. we had room #312, the water is right outside the door - very romantic and secluded, but all the huts seemed gorgeous so you can t go wrong. beach is indeed coral-ly but you only walk on the shelly bit for a sec before swimming...room was clean and well-presented. definitely recommend.	booking service was very reliable and prompt
Jennifer Anne Clements 2008-09-05	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Very overpriced. The service was poor and the location disappointing- it was located at the end of a busy dirty beach where all the ferries came in.	Good-no problems
Filippetti Valeria 2008-08-31	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We had planned to stay in Sensi Paradise Beach Resort for 4 days but, since we enjoyed so much our stay, we decide to stay 2 more nights. Beautiful location, helpfull and kind staff, clean and confortable bungalows, good food in the restaurant. We had a grat stay. Thank you very much.	Excellent and professional service!
Hans Svensson 2008-08-23	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad A great hotel, maybe a little bit expensive compared to other hotels. It was very nice located, very close to the pier where the ferries arrived. Good pick up service and a nice restaurant as well. We all enjoyed our stay at Sensi and can definitely recommend this place.	Perfect as always.
Jean-Yves TRIC 2008-08-19	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We were very well received at this hotel. Then, it is one of the best places to stay in Ko Tao because it is a little bit appart from the village, with a direct access to the sea, and also not to far to have all the commodities you like, as restaurants, various shops and so on. The hotel environment is very nice and the bungalows are really wonderful and comfortable. To conclude, for us a place to remember for maybe a future trip in Ko Tao.	Congratulations to the booking service ! All was perfect from the begining to the end. All is very well organised, like transfer from/to the pier, no problems.
Sandra Pasquarella 2008-08-08 until 2008-08-15	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad The Hotel is very beautiful and the people working there are wonderful! Everything is well organized and I suggest to Italian people to go there!	Simple and well organized
Nicholas Gibbs 2008-08-08 until 2008-08-13	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Great rooms in a great place for families. Attentive service with afternoon tea, morning paper, bed prepared woth mosquito nets each evening. Only problem is they are very dark rooms. Rest of Koh Toa is easy to get to from here and don t miss the fire acts at the lotus bar in sairee. For evening meals this is the best place to eat in Mae Haad, but yoy can get breakfast cheaper elsewhere.	As usual, great service
Ekaterina Kovalenko 2008-08-07 until 2008-08-10	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Me and my husband stayed in the Romantic Seaview villa for 3 nights. Villa was quite nice with a beautiful terrace. When I was booking this villa, the picture showed quite close beach but the administration of the hotel gave us a villa which was about 10 minutes walk up the hill. We could sea from our terrace but it was not what I expected really. It was our honeymoon but the majority of people in the hotel was in late 30s-40s, mainly families. The beach is fine but travelling more on the island it was not the best one. About 15 minutes further from the pier the was a really beautiful one which a much better area. The hotel stuff was nice, thai massage in the hotel was really good and is highly recomended. I will recommend this hotel if you go on a family vacation and most of time you prefer to spend within a hotel.	very good
LESGENT 2008-07-29 until 2008-08-01	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad A beautilfull place, very nice, very good restaurant. An hotel which we can recommend	No problem everything was ok regarding this hotel
Jendly 2008-07-27 until 2008-07-30	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad A perfect stay and architecture at Sensi, with very great service.We will sure come back!	Very pleasant and efficient service, even after the Holidays!
duffo bertrand 2008-07-25 until 2008-07-28	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Doesn t worth the money. No hot shower, no facility or entertainment, no breakfast included. You can have the same confort level for 10 times less expensive on this island, they abuse of internet booking. Just don t go there it s a waste of money.	It was not mentioned that there were no hot shower...
Kine Hansen Antonsen 2008-07-15 until 2008-07-19	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad This is a wonderful hotel!We loved the bungalow, the staff was great and the food at the hotel was amazing. This is the far best hotel we had during our trip to Thailand and Hong Kong. I would definetely go there again...and I probably will:)	Great
Petersen Jorgen Boisen 2008-07-08 until 2008-07-13	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad A very nice and high standard money machine-hotel (nothing for free :-)) but clean, ALL staff very friendly and very very prof. makes you feel happy and welcome = nice holidays. Recommend to book rooms with seaview. Excellent restaurant. Swimmingpool under construction. Would be happy to return to this place another time.	Perfect.
Ole Havndrup 2008-07-07 until 2008-07-13	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Very friendly hotel staff. Beach useless at low tide and dirty from nearby pears. Stayed af room 22 Family sea wiev. This room is not recomendable for families with children as thes roomes (22A/22B) are totaly seperate room and 22B without hot shower. Noise from the ongoing poolbilding site (not mentioned at reservation). Beach front family vila looked good, however not at low tides.	Flawless service.
Catherine Dakin 2008-07-07 until 2008-07-12	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad We stayed in the nearest family villa to the hotel restsaurant. Comfortable, clean, great views, good ambience. The villa s daybed area was a little narrow and the rail a little low - ie we had to watch noone tripped up in this area as there is a bit of a drop to the rocks below. Not a big deal, one just needs to be aware. Easy to walk into Mae Had either on the beach or on the path/road. V friendly and helpful staff who were great with the kids. The small beach there was fine for swimming although definitely better at high tide. The beach was clean and the snorkelling was also surprisingly good. All in all a great place to stay.	Great. All went very smoothly
Abel Kathrin 2008-04-15 until 2008-04-19	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Very Nice Hotel, Service and Bungalow also very good, reasonable price and a good restaurant. We enjoyed our stay at Sensi Paradise Resort and we would recommend the Resort.	Excellent Service, thank you!
Leutschacher/Heidekrueger 2008-04-13 until 2008-04-25	Sensi Paradise Beach Resort, Koh Tao, Mae Haad Sensi Paradise is definately one of or the best hotel of the island. The location is set up so elegantly into the fauna that you don t feel like in a resort at all. The bungalow (312) was equiped with anything we could think of (sarong, torch, insect spray etc.) and we enjoyed the space and the luxury of having our own access to the ocean just off the balcony. Housereef is fabulous (squits, plenty of different fishes, corals etc.) and the wrack just in front of the sensi restaurant nice as well. Service was overly great, food very nice and the 5 o clock tea and the Bangkok Post to the room everyday unbeatable. We will go back for sure. (p.s. even a cold shower on Ko Tao still has approx. 30°C). Tanja & André, Germany	very professional and good.
