Woodlawn Villas

Woodlawn Villas is a budget property featuring clean rooms and standalone villas on lush tropical grounds, and an outdoor swimming pool, but little else. The 18-room hotel is located on the southwest part of Koh Tao, a 10-minute walk from Chalok Baan and a 15-minute drive from Sairee Beach. Rooms are bright and airy, equipped with modern amenities, and include balcony seating areas, though they’re somewhat dated. Villas range from one- to three bedrooms and feature open-plan living spaces with comfy lounge areas and equipped kitchens. Guests should note that the hotel doesn’t include a restaurant or serve breakfast, and there isn’t a full-service reception staff. Those wanting to stay closer to the action should check out In Touch Resort & Restaurant, which is located right on Sairee Beach.
