Description

Karo Villas is a villa in Chalok Baan Kao, Koh Tao, with a private infinity pool and sea-view terrace at each unit. The adults-only property occupies a hillside above the south bay, and the steep approach means walking is not advised. Its three Deluxe Villas each accommodate two people and provide 63.5 m² of space, with a private bathroom, air conditioning, dining and seating areas, and a flat-screen TV. The private terraces and patios face sea and pool views; one villa also includes a mountain view.

Each villa has a kitchenette with a microwave, refrigerator, stovetop, toaster, kettle and coffee machine, along with kitchenware and a dining table. Outdoor furniture and dining areas complement the private pools, while WiFi is free in the rooms and free private parking is available on site. The property also has a shuttle service and tour desk, with diving, snorkelling, hiking, canoeing and fishing among the activities available.

Chalok Baan Kao is the quieter village around Koh Tao’s south bay, and Karo Villas stands on the steep hillside above it. The private terraces look out over the sea, with an infinity pool at each villa.
