A lovely resort in Chalok bay. The staff are really friendly, the breakfast was excellent (menu choices, not a buffet) and the small pool was great too refresh after a day snorkeling.
If you aren't hiring a moped think carefully about this resort. The walk up the drive is about 200m and is brutally steep. We managed but you need to be prepared.
Otherwise the hotel is excellent.

I loved my stay at Chintakiri Resort. The rooms are spacious with strong AC and a fan. Each room has a large balcony with an incredible view of the bay. The facilities are very nice, including a small, but very nice infinity pool with a gorgeous view. Breakfast is made to order. Every employee was friendly and so helpful. They will offer suggestions for outings and help you to book. Please note that this resort is up a very steep hill that is quite a climb (even when you are in-shape) and the resort itself is full of stairs. You must be easily mobile to stay here. And unless you rent a scooter, you will spend quite a bit of money for taxis to/from the resort ($300-$500 baht per one-way trip). As a solo female traveler I felt very safe at this resort (and on Koh Tao in general) and would definitely stay here again.

I had the most wonderful stay at Chintakiri. The team who worked there were fantastic - so friendly and helpful! The views were spectacular. The rooms were simple but had everything I needed. Shower and air con were great and bed was comfy. The balcony was big and had a stunning view. Pool was clean and food was great. It was a hike to get up there though and I would recommend hiring a scooter if you do stay there. The workout to walk up is well worth what you get once you arrive!

we just stayed here for over two weeks and enjoyed our stay very much. the ladies (staff) were friendly and attentive. the cabin was good with everything you'd expect from a 4 star resort. perhaps a little noisy from mopeds on occasion but that's common on KT. powerful air con.
the infinity pool was great, it became a 'home base' to look forward to after a day out enjoying the island.
food was standard Thai offerings, some fish options would have meant me giving 5* ratings across the board.
it is up a steep hill off the main road but if you get a moped or taxis that won't be a problem.
"High Bar" One (with the connotations that are implied) is right next door and good for chilling on an evening with great views.

Fantastic We had an absolutely wonderful stay, yes the hill/steps are a challenge but so worth it. The rooms are simply furnished and very comfortable, with amazing views especially if you have a room at reception level or above. Shower gel, shampoo and hairdryer on request
Situated close to some lovely beaches eg Shark Bay and Freedom Beach and bars and restaurants. Staff are incredibly helpful, organising taxis, a snorkel trip and even pulling out all the stoos to swiftly retriever a handbag I left in a taxi (all credit to the honesty and integrity of the lovely Thai people, I also left a pair of very good sunglasses in a bar down the hill (a bad run of losing things on my part) , and they were handed back to me when I searched the next day). Breakfast was lovely, cooked to order. Such a lovely personal, attentive service, thank you Chintakiri xx

Pretty dated but most of the Koh Tao hotels are. These are separated bungalows sitting on the side of a mountain overlooking Shark’s bay. The views are incredible. A bit of a hike up the road to the hotel so be prepared for that. Close to dive shops and great food and services. This was excellent for the price.

Fantastic One of my favorite hotels ever, all categories.
Loacted a bit up a hill it had a great view of the ocean and also the lush green trees beneath.
The resort was clean and well maintained.
The staff was absolutely fantastic. So helpful and kind all the time.
My plan was to stay here for half my duration in Koh Tao then try living in another part of the island but I ended up extending my stay here because it was so enjoyable. Next time I go to the island there's no doubt, I'm staying at chintakiri again.

The staff were really friendly, the room was nice, a very strong WiFi connection. Best bit was it wasn’t a buffet breakfast, they cooked to order. The location was good as it was easy to access things yet quiet and peaceful but not suitable for the unfit as on a very steep hill.
