About Cape Shark Pool Villas
Cape Shark Pool Villas is a cluster of villas on the cliffs of the cape above Shark Bay, on Koh Tao's south coast. Every villa has its own pool and a view over the bay, and many face the sunrise.
The resort lends snorkeling gear and paddleboards, serves a floating breakfast basket in your pool, and runs a free drop-off and pick-up service, which matters here, because the villas sit high on a steep hill. Some villas have a sun deck that steps straight down to the water for snorkeling, and Shark Bay's young blacktip reef sharks and turtles are right below. Reviewers rate the views, the cleanliness and the staff, and several say it's good value for a private pool villa.
It suits couples who want a villa with a pool and snorkeling on the doorstep, and who don't mind taking the shuttle or a taxi for dinner elsewhere.

Tips for Visiting Hotels & Resorts
Compare OTAs and Direct Rates
Always check the hotel's own website after finding a rate on Agoda or Booking.com. Many Thai properties offer a best-rate guarantee or throw in perks like free breakfast when you book direct.
Location Matters More Than Stars
A well-located 3-star hotel often beats a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, staying near a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the beach you actually want matters most.
