Six Senses Yao NoiFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Ko Yao Noi: two 5-star hotels, from 124 euros a night.The two luxury hotels in Ko Yao Noi cost 124 € and 618 € a night – 494 euros apart.
Cape Kudu Hotel Koh Yao NoiAt the Six Senses Yao Noi the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
What the 494 euros stand for is shown by the entry category alone.
At most hotels the rooms start at between 20 and 40 square metres. Only further up does it become generous.
At the Six Senses Yao Noi from 618 € it begins at 154.
And that is not a single exception: the figure occurs four times. The ladder then runs on through 181, 225, three times 228 and 300 up to 500 square metres – and all eleven categories at the hotel are suites.
So this hotel’s entry sits where other hotels have their upper end. You are not paying here for the possibility of living large but for there being no other possibility.
Our advice: if you are wavering between the two, do not compare the nightly rates but the square metres per euro. With this layout the arithmetic comes out differently from what the 494 euros suggest.
The two best hotels in Ko Yao Noi lie on the same island in Phang Nga Bay, between Phuket and Krabi.
The Six Senses Yao Noi from 618 € offers 11 categories, and all eleven are suites. Our recommendation for anyone who treats space as a baseline rather than a surcharge.
The Cape Kudu Hotel Koh Yao Noi from 124 € offers 5 categories; from three of them you look out over the sea. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to stay longer without tying the budget to the accommodation.
Our travel advisors know the routes between the two addresses and work them out for your particular occasion.
Together the best hotels in Ko Yao Noi offer 16 categories.
At the Six Senses Yao Noi all eleven categories are suites. The lower end is four times 154, the upper 500 square metres – in between lie 181, 225, three times 228 and 300.
At the Cape Kudu Hotel Koh Yao Noi four of the five categories measure between 45 and 90 square metres; our travel advisors have the fifth confirmed before you book.
Tell us the square metre figure you do not want to go below – on this island it separates the two hotels cleanly.

How long to stay: five nights. Ko Yao Noi can only be reached across the water, and that is precisely the point of the island: the first day goes on getting there, the second on stopping wanting to travel on. The three after that are the ones you came for.
At the Six Senses Yao Noi the suitespot benefits apply from the first night. For the Cape Kudu Hotel Koh Yao Noi two nights apply; our travel advisors confirm the minimum stay there before you book.
When it is at its best: from November to April, when the water lies calm and the boats run reliably. Our recommendation for a first visit.
From May to October the island is at its greenest and quietest. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to see the bay without the excursion boats.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
At both hotels breakfast for two people, an upgrade subject to availability and a late check-out are included.
