THE SIMPLE LIFE STORY
ABOUT US
More than 20 years ago during the early days of tourism on Koh Tao, Simple Life first existed as a simple beach shack restaurant with a few primitive huts to sleep in. Simple Life developed a special reputation for providing a paradise island style experience; exciting cuisine, great atmosphere and iconic Sairee Beach accommodation.
Times change and Koh Tao has become increasingly popular, but we still stick to the same core values that made Simple Life special in the beginning.
SAIREE BEACH, KOH TAO
LOCATION
Simple Life Resort has a premier location @ Sairee Beach; Koh Tao‘s longest stretch of sand and the most popular area to stay.
The resort is perfectly located & everything you need is within close walking distance; we are near both the beach and Sairee Village, so there are plenty of things to do and see nearby. Set about 80M back from the ocean, our resort is much more peaceful and private than other nearby options so you’ll enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.
(However, to be perfectly clear, if you’re seeking a destination which truly remote, isolated and untouched, this isn’t it. If on the other hand you’re looking for somewhere with a nice beach, good facilities, lots to do and great restaurants & island-style nightlife, Sairee Beach is ideal).

FACILITIES
SWIMMING POOL
Koh Tao Simple Life Resort has it’s own swimming pool and separate shallow pool, perfect for cooling off from our hot, sunny weather. The pool is peaceful and private, and there are plenty of pool-side sun beds to top-up your tan or enjoy reading a good book.
From your room it’s a short two minute stroll down to Sairee beach where you can enjoy relaxing on the sand, swimming or snorkeling. But during low tide, shallow water over the coral reef makes it difficult to swim. Taking a dip in the pool is the next best thing.
FACILITIES
THAI MASSAGE & SPA
To help you relax and unwind on vacation, Simple Life Koh Tao Resort has it’s own spa room offering a range of traditional Thai massages.
Run by our extremely experienced and knowledgeable masseur, we offer Traditional Thai Massage, Oil Massage and foot massage.
Treat yourself to a traditional massage by visiting our spa room next to reception, or request for a massage in the comfort of your own room.
FACILITIES
RESTAURANT & BAR

Each morning, our chefs prepare a buffet breakfast, featuring American, European and Asian favorites, fresh fruits, tea & coffee.
Later in the day try Simple Life Resort‘s signature Thai curries, spicy salads & soups, rice and noodle dishes and healthy stir frys. Or if craving something western, check out our giant menu of pasta dishes, burgers, western style salads and steaks. Not to be missed are our famous BBQ kebabs! And from our wood fired oven we serve authentic thin crust pizzas.

Throughout the resort, bar-restaurant and scuba diving school we have WiFi internet access, available for unlimited use for guests and customers. You can pickup WiFi in your room.
As you might imagine on a small tropical island, connection speeds aren’t lightening fast, but it’s easily sufficient for picking up your emails, browsing the internet or uploading photographs of Sairee Beach & Koh Tao to Facebook for your jealous friends back home!

SCUBA DIVING
One of the main reasons Koh Tao has gained notoriety as a spectacular destination are the tropical coral reefs and deep sea pinnacles surrounding the island, forming habitats for a vast array of marine life.
Koh Tao Simple Life Resort has it’s own PADI 5* dive center offering dive training for beginners and daily diving tours for certified divers.
With the same European management as the day it opened over a decade ago, ‘Simple Life Divers‘ offers all PADI scuba diving courses, ranging from one day intro sessions right through to professional level training. Our experienced crew teach in small groups to make sure everyone has a great time and qualifies as a safe, confident diver, with our custom built dive boats heading out for up to six dives each day to offer you a wide choice of dive sites.

SNORKELING
At Simple Life we run daily snorkeling trips around Koh Tao, which is one of the best ways to enjoy the spectacular scenery both above and below the waves.
Our boat visits several of the best snorkeling spots around the island each day. We often head to picturesque Mango Bay at the north of Koh Tao, peaceful Aow Leuk on the east coast and spectacular Koh Nangyuan (three tiny islands joined by a sand spit). Our experienced snorkeling tour guides will give you briefings on the best areas to explore, highlighting all the aquatic life you are likely to see (and making sure you stay safe & have a fun time). The trips include all snorkeling gear and lunch.

REPSONSIBLE TOURISM
It’s easy to understand why Koh Tao has become a popular destination. Beautiful beaches, tropical coral reefs, palm tree groves... Yet it’s important we consider our impact on Koh Tao and make an effort to preserve paradise.
All of us can do our part by using resources sparingly. For example turning off a light when you’re not using it, not running the a/c whilst your balcony doors are wide open, and trying to conserve water by not needlessly leaving a tap or shower running. It all helps.
Rubbish is another challenge facing the island. Any waste produced on Koh Tao has to be carried off the island by boat or incinerated. We can help by being considerate of the waste which we’re producing, for example minimize the amount of plastic bags when shopping, and placing glass, plastic bottles and cans in designated recycling bins.
