    the facilities were by far the best I've encountered in any Asian hostel. the rooms, bathrooms, and common areas were impeccably clean and modern. I loved the high-pressure rain showers and the comfortable fluffy white bed. the natural light and balconies in the dorm rooms were a nice touch. the hostel also offers a delicious and fresh breakfast. the location is ideal, with plenty of food, drink, yoga, and diving options within a short walk. Transportation to Sairee beach and other beach locations was provided free of charge. the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. They even organized fun social activities like beach crawls. I had a fantastic time and will definitely be returning to Dearly Koh Tao Hostel soon. Cons: Nothing not to love 😊.

    The hostel is praised for its spacious and comfortable rooms, offering a variety of amenities such as balconies and lockers. the staff is highly commended for being friendly, helpful, and creating a welcoming atmosphere. Guests also appreciate the included breakfast, which features a buffet with a diverse selection and the option to order from a separate menu. the common area and pool are described as fantastic spaces to relax and socialize with other guests.

    The location of the hostel is mentioned as a slight drawback, as it is a bit far from the main area. it is easily accessible by scooter or taxi, albeit taxis can be pricey, particularly for those wanting to visit bars and have drinks.

    The private deluxe room at The Dearly Koh Tao Hostel-Padi Dive Center was immaculately clean and provided breathtaking panoramic views. We were pleasantly surprised to find glass-bottled water replaced every day, and the extra breakfast provided was a kind and generous gesture. The hostel also offers free trips to different beaches each day, allowing us to explore parts of the island we wouldn't have been able to reach otherwise. The staff were incredibly helpful, providing beach and trip suggestions as well as a useful map of the island. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel. a fantastic experience.

    We had a fantastic stay at this hostel! the rooms were spacious and airy, with secure storage for our luggage. the free breakfast was a great bonus, and the staff were kind and helpful. the location was perfect, away from the noisy bars and clubs, in a calm and peaceful neighborhood. the instructor for our diving course was excellent, making our experience even more enjoyable.

    The uncomfortable spring mattresses in the rooms, which had sunken in the middle over the years.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the spaciousness of the hostel room at The Dearly. There was plenty of room to move around and even a cute little balcony to hang wet clothes. The cleanliness was exceptional - no sand or dirt anywhere. The highlight was the lovely pool, despite some ongoing construction. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and even invited me to join them on a beach crawl. I also received a free upgrade to a nicer, more comfortable private room. The location was perfect for me, not too focused on parties but still close to restaurants, dive schools, and bars. I highly recommend staying at The Dearly Koh Tao Hostel-Padi Dive Center.

    The hostel was beautiful and very clean, with spacious rooms and a beautiful view. the staff were incredibly helpful and made me feel welcome and at home. I also liked that it was walking distance to nice restaurants, yoga, and a beach bar. the fact that the hostel provided taxi services and free shuttle trips to the beaches was also a great advantage.

    One of the negative aspects was the lack of an elevator, especially considering that some rooms were on the fourth floor. the portion of free milk provided was quite small, and we had to pay extra for additional milk, which was still the same small amount.
