Location & what to see
Ko Tao is a small island in the Gulf of Thailand, and Chalok Baan Kao is one of its bays. Hills rise behind the sand here, and the resort's rooms look out over the water or the garden.

Sairee Beach, 2.7 km away, is the island's main beach. Nangyuan Island, 6.4 km away, is a group of small islets linked by sandbars and popular for snorkelling.
