"We love Ban's. We always stay here when on Tao. Great rooms, pools, staff and service "

"Loved that we could easily access the two fun areas of the island!"

"Just left and had a great week!!! The two guys that mainly work the beach go the extra mile and are asset to the place! We were a family of 4 in one room but plenty of room and all had super comfy beds. The rooms are bright and comfortable we had our own bathroom. The restaurant serves a great selection of food and the all day a la carte breakfast was perfect! The beach is beautiful and is fab for snorkelling and swimming. My kids did their Padi open water at the dive school next door which was also very good and convenient. With out doubt the best spot on Tanote bay!!! Thank you!!! ❤️ "

"Lovely hotel. Beautiful surroundings. We had the 2 bed royal suite which was wonderful, specious, and had stunning views. Direct access to the sea where we saw sharks and turtles. Great cocktails by the pool. "

"It is a beautiful resort amazing food a big variety to order and very well priced accommodation is excellent the snorkeling is the best on the island "

"Like living in a manicured garden."

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Tarna. Decent breakfast spread without being overly fancy. The free shuttle to and from town (and to and from the ferry) was greatly appreciated. The onsite dive school was excellent and we had great dives with them. The fact that their equipment is in great condition and they have their own traning pool at the hotel were big pluses. We had a room with its own pool, which we really enjoyed - But be aware that these rooms are all facing onto the construction site next door. I estimate that it will be ongoing for at least another year (we stayed in April 2025). To be fair it wasn't that intrusive, but I think potential guests should know about it."
