We absolutely loved the pool and waterfall. It's a beautiful and large pool. Not too crowded. Staff is very nice and accommodating. Really enjoyed the breakfast buffet. Only wish there is a bar for the pool area, plastic cups would work. We were kinda bummed we could not check in at least an hr or 2 earlier, we arrived after midnight and tried asking a couple times. It seemed like 1 hour before 3pm would be reasonable.

True paradise!
It is the best experience we had in a very long time. They made our arrangement so easy from picking us from another hotel to the pier & with a short boat ride to their resort. We stayed in a 1 bdrm villa w/an infinity pool overlooking the ocean for 2nts. The room was beautiful & the view was spectacular! We only wish that we stay longer. We were in Phuket for 6nts so we only stay a few nts at different resorts & we're glad we end our trip at Santhiya resort, it is a true paradise! Thank you for making our stay a memorable experience.

Great resort!
Pros:We tried most of the restaurants and thought they were all very good. The Thai food was great...not too spicy.
Cons:Overall it was an outstanding couple of weeks for us....Thanks Santhiya!!
Location:We rented mopeds from a place on the beach for 7 bucks a day. There is a new 7-Eleven in the middle of the island that was nice to shop at.
We stayed a couple of weeks and loved it there! We used the resorts airport transfer and thought it was worth every penny. They met us at the airport and took our bags (we didn't touch them again until we got to our room). They drove us to the marina and we then waited for the boat in their air conditioned waiting room (beverages and snack provided). The boat ride was about 30 minutes and they gave us cold bottles of water. Our room was amazing...even better than the pics online. Our only complaint would be that they only give you one key and its attached to a card that turns on the AC and lights. When you leave for the day without the AC on it gets pretty warm in the room. The beach was great...we had no problem getting chairs and umbrellas. The man who ran the beach area was great..he noticed that I was always warm so he brought me a bucket of ice with hand towels soaking in it every day. Other reviews complained about walking the hills to and from the beach. We laughed about this until we got there...they are steep. The shuttles run about every 5 minutes. The staff members at the resort were all very friendly and professional. Both pools were amazing and never crowded.
Step outside to unwind on the white sand beach. At Santhiya Koh Yao Yai Resort & Spa you can cool off in one of the 2 outdoor swimming pools and indulge in a pampering afternoon at the full-service spa. Free breakfast is available daily. There are 6 restaurants on site. You can enjoy a drink at the bar/lounge. This luxury resort also offers a complimentary children's club, a children's pool, and a fitness center. This 5-star Ko Yao resort is smoke free.
