Teemu 2008-06-19 until 2008-06-23	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh Nice family run place. Situated on quiet south cape of Tao. Very peacefull place. few kilometers walk to village so it might be better hire a motorbike. Not place for disable people and people who wants luxury hotel. But people who wants sea view, peace and nature this can be the place.	OK
Christopher Guss Sereika 2008-06-16 until 2008-06-20	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh Having just arrived home from New Heaven I can strongly recommend this to anyone visiting the island. We originally booked to 4 of our 10 nights on the island and thought we’d look around and see if we wanted to stay somewhere else. No where came close and we booked the remaining 6 nights at New Heaven. For the price, location there isn’t any better. The restaurant has an amazing deck that’s great for dinner or a drink. The rooms were clean with a fantastic view of the bay. 10/10 amazing!!	Booking was quick and easy. Secure service to pay by credit card and they were no issued on check in at our resort.
Lilia Tyrrell 2008-06-14 until 2008-06-16	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh We absolutely loved this place. Book room 8 if you have the money, the view is absolutely spectacular. The staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. It has the feel of a real local small resort, unlike some of the mega guesthouses and resorts on the island. And the architecture, views and staff were just A+. Only downside is a lack of many Thai options on the menu, but that just gave us a good excuse to explore other parts of the island. Right outside the bungalows is a moto rental place (vichit s) that offers great prices on motos and taxi rides. Happy travels!
WANG TING 2008-06-08 until 2008-06-12	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh charming scene,regional house and kindly people.	efficient
Carol Smith 2008-05-22 until 2008-05-24	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh Very beautiful location! The cabins in the first row facing the ocean are, in fact heaven on earth! They re on stilts set on the edge of the rocky coast in a very quiet bay (aka Ao Thian Og/Ok, Rocky Bay, Shark Bay). The other cabins, staggered up the hill to the restaurant/office/road, also have ocean views, just with trees in between (lots of butterflies and some mosquitos but rooms have good nets). Yes the stairs to/from the cabins and down to the little beach are very steep and uneven to the point of danger for the infirm/unfit! About the restaurant, the view is stunning but the food wasn t as good as I expected (I d read that it was great), particularly at lunch when the selection is quite limited. We went next door to OK II on our last day and regretted not having eaten there before -- the Thai selection is HUGE and good (and cheaper!). Now about the beach. Well, the one at New Heaven is tiny and not appropriate for swimming due to rocks, coral and shallow water but you can snorkel out from there (carefully at low tide!) and see a decent variety of fish, though the coral s not nearly as nice/healthy as other bays. (I didn t see any reef sharks here, despite the rumour of them being plentiful.) However, the beautiful Ao Thian Og beach, just around the curve of the bay, is just a 10-15 min. walk down the hill and it is gorgeous. However, the swimming is actually just a warm sit bath since the water is very, very shallow. Again, snorkeling s okay but nothing spectacular. All in all, I think I d stay there again maybe but go elsewhere when I wanted a good swim and great snorkeling (to Ao Leuk, just one bay up, maybe by boat taxi). Staff s hardworking but not very friendly (except the manager, a very sweet woman).	I ve used them before and the selection and service are always pretty good. My only complaint would be that they re a little disconnected from the hotels in that when you ask questions they are pretty limited in the specific info they can supply.
Stefaan Claeyssens 2008-04-20 until 2008-04-25	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh This is a great place to stay and relax. Beautiful bungalows (i had one with a fan, but that s just fine) with a very original but good shower and bathroom - open view on the ocean. The view was perfect all around, from the bungalow as well as from the open restaurant. This place is so hidden in the trees, you can hardly see it from across the bay! You might be visited in the room by some wildlife, such as lizards, mice, squirl, gecko, spiders and of course all the mosquito s you can feed. There is no malaria here but dengue is always possible. You might want to use a repellent, i didn t cause i don t like all the fuss. You get used to mosquito bites after a while. The food here is very OK, although you might want to go to the pier sometimes for something different, because the menu is not so big. The only downside was that some of the staff was not too friendly or helpfull, maybe this was because i was there with my Thai girlfriend. The rest of the staff was however very kind and overly helpfull, which more than compensated for this little glitch in the service. I thank them for a nice and relaxing holiday.	The booking service went very smooth and fast. there were no problems whatsoever.
Gregory Brennan 2008-03-26 until 2008-03-28	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh We stayed for only 2 nights which wasn t long enough. Couldn t have asked for a better place to stay in Koh Tao. There were 3 of us in the bungalow with a beautiful view. It felt like we were in a tree house. Front staff and restaurant staff were laid back and friendly adding to our enjoyment.	Easy
Maurice Labbe 2008-03-08 until 2008-03-10	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh The room was not clean and there was no water 90% of the time. The site is beautifull but missing maintenance.
Yoann Perrotte 2008-02-23 until 2008-02-27	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh amazing sea view and kidness of employees. very clean and romantique sea view bungalow with a generous exotic garden. very tasty food. we loved their smoothie shakes and so much more. also very nice for the possibility to have a motorbike and taxi at the reception.	quick and perfect (it would just be a bit better if we could know immediatly the availibility of the hotel insteed of waiting a email)
Johannes Saukko 2008-02-05 until 2008-02-17	New Heaven Bungalow, Koh Tao, Ao Tien Oh Very very very beautiful place! The staff are very frinedly and the resort´s restaurant is overlooking an amazing bay. Breakfast + food excellent. The resort is located on a quiet hill, but as Ko Tao is a small place, it is not far away from anywhere. I really really recommend this resort for young couples, and I will definitely stay here if I ever travel to Ko Tao again.	Extremely helpful and fast service. No problems at all. Will surely use the service again. Thank you.
