“If you want to play in the sea, I suggest you think twice.”
+Apart from the beach, everything is good, especially the view and service, and they have ping pong table and American pool. Unfortunately, the beach is quite rocky, the sand is coarse, and branches and coral fragments are mixed in the waves, which is more obvious at low tide. So if you don't need to play in the sea, my rating is good, but if you want to play in the sea, I suggest you think again.
“Stay away ! from this horrible outdated resort”
+Not clean Lot of insects lizards Very old Outdated Bad service I don't know how it has such a good review Maybe it was good before

“Little slice of paradise!”
+We loved our stay here, the room was perfect and it felt really quiet, some days we felt as thought the beach or pool were just ours. Beach is stunning and we loved swimming here. Room had everything we needed including a mini mosi spray and we really enjoyed the outdoor shower! Hotel staff were really attentive and friendly and the sunset meal was a perfect end to our stay, really romantic watching the sunset! The breakfast here was good but wouldn't recommend eating here for other meals, there are some incredible places to eat nearby and all very affordable. Yoh Yao Yai was our favourite place to visit in Thailand and we hope to return
+We loved everything about Elixir. Beautiful resort. Great food and cocktails. Private pool was so nice.

“Beautiful location, relaxing stay in stunning surroundings”
+Little peace of heaven - we stayed here for 5 nights and my goodness it’s truly beautiful We upgraded to a beach villa with a private pool. This was expensive but worth every penny! The island is like stepping back in time. Very quiet with no taxis only tuk Tuks or mopeds. The hotel is quite made up of around 40 villas. They have a restaurant that serve breakfast, dinner and lunch. There is nothing to do after 9pm as the bars and restaurants close. This is a perfect place to fully relax and enjoy a slower relaxing pace. The staff were attentive and welcoming. Welcome drink, cold cloths and a flower offered on arrival. We hired a moped for the day and explored the whole island. There is only 1 seven /11 on the whole island so be aware if you are wanting a shop The villas are stunning with outdoor shower and baths. Although very quiet and remote this was one of our favourite places to stay to unwind

“Best service ever!”
+This hotel only holds 3 - stars but personel pulls it up til a 5 - stared experience for us. We were unlucky with an incident that required held. The staff was so helpful, drove us around, took care of our children and much more. After returning from the hospital the staff was ready with “get well soon cake” supporting items and everything. We had to extend our stay with 2 days which also was possible. Incredible restaurant as well.

“Best option in Koh Yao Yai.”
+We stayed 8 nights in late January 2025 and It was a very pleasant stay.We visited the property many times to eat there in 2022 during our stay at another hotel,then decided to come back some day and we finally did it.Private transfer form Phuket airport can be arranged,it is punctual and reliable. Our deluxe villa N. 175 although it is located at the last row, had a decent sea view, was comfortable and well appointed with an outdoor shower and a big balcony.No bed frame since the mattress was placed directly over an slightly elevated floor where getting out of it could be sometimes a bit challenging.The breakfast is very good with asian and western options changing every day,also the food offered at their menu during lunch and dinner is very good with all meals served in a seating area by the sea.The beach is nice,among the best if not the best of the island,specially its northern part.The ambiance is calmed and relaxed surrounded by trees and gardens.Decent gym with two perfectly working treadmills.The staff is very nice and attentive.I did not give a five star review due to a some maintenance issues noticed and the use of plastic bottled water,straws.Surely we will comeback.

“Truly Paradise with Amazing Staff”
+I cannot count how many times I came and stay at Elixir Koh Yao Yai. It's always been amazing like home away from home. Reception staff are very welcoming as always with butterfly pea flower drink and cold towel offered upon arrival. Very cool, nice and clean villa and I loved the outdoor rain shower that you can see the blue sky. This is a nature sorroundings with lovely clean garden and different types of plants and flowers. Food at the restaurant it's really delicious which you can taste all local herbs on it, for me it's the best restaurant in koh yao yai. We ate all the time at the restaurant as not only very good food but also having a beautiful beach and view in front of you which very luxurious feeling. Me and my sister enjoyed the cocktails at pool bar very much especially their happy hour at tiki bar during sunset time. All excellent and all staff are friendly and helpful and this will make you decide come back . I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Elixir Koh Yao Yai, to those who want peace, tranquil, beautiful beach, quiet, and relaxing holiday. They also offer transfer (land and sea which their own boat and island activities as well. THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ELIXIR KOH YAO YAI TEAM FOR MAK
