Samatha Bed & Breakfast is in Sairee Beach, on Koh Tao’s west coast, where the island’s main village runs alongside a long, sandy shore. Sairee Beach is 150 m away. The beach stretches for about 1.8 km, with dive schools, restaurants and beach bars along the main strip; the western-facing coast also gives sunset views towards Koh Nang Yuan. The village has a lively dining and diving scene, while the property’s garden and terrace provide outdoor space away from the beachfront.

Koh Tao has no airport, so arrival is by ferry at Mae Haad. Crossings take 45–90 minutes from Koh Phangan and about 1.5–2 hours from Koh Samui. Lomprayah Koh Tao Pier is 2 km from Samatha Bed & Breakfast; taxis serve Sairee from the pier, and Mae Haad and Sairee are joined by a flat shore path that takes around 15 minutes on foot. Free public parking is possible at a nearby location, with no reservation needed. Some eastern roads are steep as they descend to secluded bays.

Dive schools run trips to Koh Tao’s well-known dive sites, and snorkelling is another island activity. Coconut Viewpoint is 1.3 km away, Mae Haad Beach is 1.5 km away and Ao Hin Wong is 1.8 km away; Koh Nang Yuan Beach is 2.3 km away. Koh Nang Yuan can also be visited by long-tail boat from Sairee or Mae Haad. February to April is generally driest and calmest, while November and December bring rougher seas and ferry disruption. Whale sharks are seen most often in March–May and September–October.
