when we checked in we were met by a guy named Turah. He was fantastic at helping us during the entire stay. With recommendations of where to snorkel, eat, and how to get around. He knew my name from the first day and always greeting us with a smile. We are thankful he was there.
Fisherman had awesome decor and facilities, in the center of one of our favorite beaches on Koh Tao. We loved plopping down on the sandbar and enjoying it for the whole afternoon. Total bliss. Fisherman Pros: pretty hotel, stellar pool and garden, great location, and direct PERFECT beach access. Cons: shower could be much hotter, no mosquito nets (what?!) and gaps in the bathroom screens and living room wooden slats that allowed in a lot of bugs. There was a GIANT centipede in our bed and overnight the bathroom and shower room filled with mosquitos -- to the point that we couldn't even use the bathroom unless one person stood at the door with a towel to kill mosquitos so that the other person could pee. Seriously. it was super off-putting for the price (~60/night) and the fact that most everywhere in thailand has nets to prevent this problem.

It has good and bad
Pros:
Close to beach
Extremely friendly and helpful staff
AC worked well
Mosquito net provided
Hot water
Cons:
Doors aren’t sealed, lots of spiders and lizards got into our room
Not a lot to do in this area expect go to dive school
Bungalows are dated - they were renovating when we were there
If your whole group is doing dive classes in this area, it’s perfect. But if anyone in your group isn’t doing diving, stay in Sairee beach area instead.
Best bang for your buck! Beautiful resort on the beach, right next to seven eleven and many other restaurants. Close to the pier and many diving schools. The mattress was comfortable. Hot water didn't really work but the rest of the stay was awesome. Service and staff were friendly and helpful!
A modern room which was good considering the price. Good value and better standard than other similarly priced rooms on the island. That said, I don't know if all the rooms in the resort are as modern. Comfortable bed, very clean on arrival and located right on the waterfront. The beach however is very narrow and for much of the day when the tide is in there was no room on the beach, even walking the length of it was difficult due to the trees on the shore, that said, it's a nice but steep walk to Freedom Beach which was well worth the journey. Shower was very nice although the water was often cold depending on the time of day. Wifi was good compared to other places on the island.

Will try another place next time
Positives:
- great location, right on the beach. Everything is in walk distance.
- great dive shop right by it: you get a discount on your dives for staying in the hotel.
- AC worked well ( make sure you stay in the new part of the hotel; we heard the old part was not good at all)
- beds were comfortable.
Negatives:
- the breakfast is from 7 to 10 AM. They do this on purpose because most dives, including the one right by the hotel, leaves at seven. So you actually cannot eat breakfast there. Besides that, it's a set portion per person, quite small I would say.
- bathroom could be better
- we were supposed to get a discount because we stayed extra nights but for whatever reason we did not get that 10% off
- the water from the tap had a very strong taste. We had to but bottle water to brush our teeth.
- locals were surprised about the price we were paying for the hotel, saying it was way too much.
- internet not very reliable.
- gets bright in the rooms very early, basically no curtains.
Despite paying a higher price than other places around the area, our stay there was very disappointing from many aspects. We stayed at one of the higher end bungalows with garden view. The room was quite dated, dirty and had ants in the bathroom. Also, it was impossible to regulate the so called "warm shower" to a bearable temperature, it was either throbbing hot or ice cold. Making matters worst, the staff was very unwelcoming and rude at times. Definitely will not stay there again.
Generally all hotels on Koh Tao are more expensive than in other parts of the country. Therefore don't expect too much from places at this price level. The hotel is situated right behind the beach. The water is quite shallow so you have to walk a couple of meters to be able to swim. We chose this place because it is further away from the main tourist area and closer to several nice snorkeling spots / beaches. On the main street you have some restaurants, shops, internet cafes and travel agents which is not the case for smaller bays & beaches which we have visited. If there was an offer without breakfast I would have chosen it since the quality and variety of the food is quite limited: the Muesli option was ok, but I did not like the American option (fat and little taste)
Pas grand chose à dire à part que tout était parfait, la piscine à débordement avec vu sur la plage juste incroyable, les chambres très typiques et en même temps simple et confortable.
Le personnel d’une extrême gentillesse.
Il n’y a eu que du positif, si je devais retourner à Koh tao je reprendrais cet hôtel sans hésiter.
Malgré des avis divergents lus auparavant, aucun regret pour cet hôtel. Accueil sympa, chambre propre et faite tous les jours, clim qui fonctionne bien et service en général très satisfaisant. Emplacement parfait dans cette baie calme et bien située.
