About

The Dearly Koh Tao Hostel offers young travelers clean, comfortable, and affordable shared, and private accommodations with PADI diving center on-site. Our exceptional facility is thoughtfully designed with amenities such as a swimming pool, common rooms, and rooftop terraces. As an eco-friendly hostel, sustainability is at the heart of what we do and we hope you share the same values.. We operate independently with our own solar panels, generator, and water storage and treatment systems to ensure 24/7 utilities while minimizing our environmental impact.

We believe in exploring adventure, embracing local culture, and creating life memories and friends along the way. Operated by Thai locals, we know how to make you feel at home. Our hostel is filled with a FREE Beach Shuttle and a variety of activities bringing us all together.

The property is separated into 2 buildings, the main building and the 'Hide & Seek", unit. The 'Hide&Seek' unit t is located in a separate building, tucked away 2 minutes walk from the main building, surrounded by jungle. All rooms are equipped with A/C and feature a balcony and are all located upstairs, accessible by stairs only.

Located in the local living area of the island ‘Chalok’, convenient with shops and restaurants nearby.
*We are surrounded by the local community and jungles, roosters and other wildlife noises are to be expected*

Amazing hostel, booked for 2 nights and stayed for 7. On the quieter side of the island which was great to chill but easy enough to get over to the party side. The staff were genuinely some of the friendliest people ever and everywhere was spotlessly clean. Did my PADI open water here and Aaron was the best diving instructor I’ve ever had. Will definitely be back.

Amazing! No complaints. Amazing breakfast, lovely hostel, amazing staff and while further from the city centre it’s still got amazing things round about. Amazing dive school also.

We loved our stay here, we took the daily trips to different beaches for swimming and snorkelling, breakfast is okay, shared bathrooms are clean, downside is the walk back to the dorm was very very long, we would stay again.
