Could not recommend this Island enough! We went at the start of tourist season, so it was still very quiet. The locals are lovely, the food is amazing, and the beach is nice. The Kib is a lovely resort. Nothing mind blowing, but very nice all the same. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, pleasant and helpful. The rooms were... More

If you are looking for peace and quiet then the Kib will fit the bill. It is a long way from Phuket airport, the transfer costs around 2400 baht, which includes the ferry across the narrow canal. The hotel has a mix of accommodation, we stayed in the main block which had a large room and bathroom fitted to a... More

We arrived after midnight to be greated by staff waiting our arrival . Transport was all perfect from the pick up at the airport through to the midnight run over the water to the island, even though we were delayed by nearly two hours. The restaurant staff and bar staff were absolutely brilliant. The room was thoroughly cleaned daily and... More

We just spent 5 days at the KIB in Ko Khoa. So maybe we didn't do our homework well enough before we booked there, and the rooms were reasonably priced, but this hotel is nothing like the website would lead you to believe. First it is not in Khao Lak, it is 30 minutes up the road and a boat... More

I can't give the KIB a terrible review. The rooms are beautiful and spacious, and the beach is nice, but certainly not outstanding. Breakfast was okay. The grounds definitely need to be updated (lots of dead grass. Not pleasing when your room has a "garden view"). There was a strikingly large number of old Swedish people. Unfortunately, when we booked,... More

huge room, great bathroom and right on the beach (17km of pristine, unspoilt beach!) The breakfast was adequate although not outstanding, however the service and accommodation were superb- but the real gem is the location. Koh Ko Khao is truly a 'virgin island' with authentic restaurants, a few small shops and very friendly locals. You won't find mass-tourism or many... More

We stayed at the KIB in november 2011. Had a poolaccessvilla, which was great with direct access to pool. Poolvilla itself is good choice. Hotel halffull with mainly Swedish tourists. Staff are friendly but speak basic English, had dinner twice in restaurant, ok but not spectacular. Buffet breakfast is a disappointment and pretty basic. Location makes up for a lot.... More

When u think of the south side of thailand your probably picturing beautiful beaches, pools,and un believable foods, unfortunately the kib did not deliver. The beach was extremely dirty, the water extremely murky, and their seemed to be more trash in the ocean than actual fish. The food was below standard, and prices were to high for the quality we...

Worst hotel ever! Booked transport - didn't arrive. Eventually got picked up by hotel handyman. Hotel grounds scruffy with rubbish strewn around. Booked pool villa room - room smelled awful - but very nice room. Pool was disgustingingly dirty with green slime and dead cockroaches in it and probably full of bacteria. Didn't get any further than this. Travel company... More
