Hin Wong Bay is on Koh Tao’s steep east coast, where rocky coves and coral-rich water contrast with the island’s busier west-coast villages. The resort is in the Tanote Bay & Ao Leuk stretch, and Koh Tao centre is 3.2 km away. Ao Hin Wong is 250 m away, Top of the rock is 700 m away, and Mao Bay - Ao Mamuang is 1.2 km away. The east coast has fewer shops and everyday services than Mae Haad and Sairee; there is no ATM or 7-Eleven, and dining is mainly at resort restaurants.
Koh Tao has no airport; ferries arrive at Mae Haad Pier on the west coast. Lomprayah Koh Tao Pier is 3.2 km from the resort, and island pickup-truck taxis connect the pier with the east-coast coves. Roads down to Hin Wong, Tanote Bay and Ao Leuk are steep, so take care if travelling by scooter. Taxi boats also connect coastal bays. The resort has a shuttle service and free private parking on site.
Stairs or a ladder lead to the sea for snorkelling, and masks and life jackets are available to hire at the resort. The east coast is generally the calmer side from April to October; rougher Gulf conditions from November into winter can disrupt ferries. Ao Tanote Beach is 1.9 km away, Laem Thian 1.7 km, and Coconut Viewpoint 1.4 km. Diving is a major Koh Tao activity, with more than 25 dive sites around the island; whale sharks are most often seen from March to May and September to October.
Guests most often praise the sea and jungle views and direct sea access by stairs or ladder for snorkelling. The remote east-coast setting means steep trips to town, while some guests found the room cooling inadequate in hot weather.
