Baan Talay Koh Tao

Amazing place close to nature and the ocean. We had such an wonderful week and after having spent 7 weeks in Thailand, at this place we had the most fun. Right outside was the most beautiful coral reefs here we saw many fish, shark and a turtle. We could also swim to a nice sandy beach very close by, and eat lunch at the restaurant by the sea front and have great snorkeling. We travelled with our 4 kids and they loved it very much. Kids also did a freediving course with the owner Dev, that was a wonderful experience for them. The free yoga classes every morning had very high standard and was truly inspiring – the Shala is right by the ocean overlooking forest and the sea. The ice bath organized by Baan Talay was really fun to – so happy we got to try that. Inspiering for both body and mind! We slept in the tents and could fall alseep to the sounds of the tropical forest and wake up every morning to the ocean sound, very comfy beds and showers with hot and nice water. Food has high class and moderate prices. Home baked bread and cakes that was absolutely delicious! The Baan Talay home made tea was fantastic. It was such a relief to come to a resort that did not have plastic straws and plastic bottles. The restaurant was on a big terrace overlooking the ocean – very Instagram friendly : ) We also did a scuba dive with Ban Talays diving center (New Haven) - an incredible experience and experienced staff. Our kids dove with Maggie - it felt completely safe at all stages and kids had so much fun with her. Thank you Dev and staff for a wonderful week at Baan Talay with so many lovely experiences. We will really try to come back next year.
