Six Senses Hideaway Ko Yao ReviewIf there's one person whose job I envy, it's whoever gets to choose the locations for Six Senses resorts. They are always in spectacular places with breathtaking views, and this new Hideaway on Ko Yao is no exception. There's no need for guests to rough it on the regular longtail ferry either; they get whisked to and from the island by swanky speedboat, or helicopter if they prefer. The private pool villas here are set on a hillside that faces a dramatic cluster of limestone peaks rising from the sea. Rooms are equipped with every conceivable luxury, including chilled wine cabinets, and each villa is assigned a personal butler. If money is no object, go for the fabulous hilltop reserve, with its enormous infinity pool and water slide on top of the hill. The simple but stylish teak architecture is a treat for the eyes, and true to its name, Six Senses leaves no sense unfulfilled, with superb cuisine in the Dining Room and Living Room, a host of watersports including sailing classes, and the usual range of heavenly spa treatments. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
