I did my dive master at sairee cottage and from the beginning to end it was an incredible experience. Martin was our instructor and we couldn’t have asked for a more patient and knowledgeable role model. He always knew when I needed a little push and how to build my confidence up. The course was taught very thoroughly, with an emphasis on safety always. Not only was the DM course amazing but the experience of being part of the ‘sairee family’ was also unforgettable. Everyone from the boat boys, to other instructors and bar staff were so friendly and made me feel like I was part of the family immediately. A truly amazing experience. I would highly recommend this dive center to anyone looking to do their DM training. I promise you will not regret it and you will leave with a family away from home.
One of the best experiences of my life!I did my PADI Divemaster course here over the course of 8 weeks and it was fantastic. First and foremost, Martin is a fantastic Instructor and I learned so much from him. He is pragmatic but also takes an individual approach to each student and he really cares. He will make sure that you not only pass your Dive Master with flying colours, but that you have fun while doing so and learn to be as safe a diver as possible. Beyond that, Sairee has the best equipment on Koh Tao, and they use their own compressors to refill the tanks. They have the best Boat crew on the island and the Admin office is fantastic as well, to help you with anything from Visa to ferry bookings, to receiving mail. It helps that the mini Bar serves Guinness too. Ultimately I recommend diving with Sairee cottage, and if you have the time, to do the Dive Master course. Thanks to Sairee, I have made new friends for life. SAIREE family forever ❤️
I did my PADI Divemaster course at Sairee Cottage in May and it was an incredible experience! I only had a month on Koh Tao but Martin went out of his way to ensure I completed the course in time and to the same high standards as everyone else. He is a fantastic instructor and everyone at Sairee is beyond lovely. I highly recommend Sairee Cottage for diving on Koh Tao and would 100% recommend the Divemaster course. The free accommodation and fun dives offered during the course make it excellent value. The wonderful staff and amazing group of people I met made the experience even more memorable. I started work immediately after and felt very confident and capable as a Divemaster. Thank you so much I had the best time ever!!
Sairee Cottage Dive Centre on Koh Tao offers an exceptional diving experience that combines professionalism with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. From the moment you arrive, the staff makes you feel like part of the family, with a warm and welcoming attitude. The instructors are highly experienced, patient, and passionate about diving, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for both beginners and seasoned divers alike. I completed the Zero to Hero course which took me from Open water to Divemaster over a couple of months and it was one of the best experiences of my life! This also included free accommodation for the duration of the Divemaster course which was great when travelling and wanting to save on accommodation. I managed to go from having 0 logged dives (previously only having done a handful of DSD’s) to over 100 logged dives by the end of my Divemaster course.Martin, the Divemaster mentor, brings a relaxed yet highly knowledgeable approach to teaching. He combines his vast experience with a laid-back attitude, ensuring that every aspect of the course, whether in the classroom or out diving, is thoroughly explained and understood. His dedication to clear instruction makes learning both enjoyable and effective.The dive sites around Koh Tao are stunning, with usually crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and an abundance of marine life. The equipment at Sairee Cottage Dive Centre is top-notch, well-maintained, and regularly inspected, giving you peace of mind while you explore the underwater world.Whether you’re looking to earn a certification or just enjoy a fun dive, Sairee Cottage Dive Centre provides a fantastic experience from start to finish. Highly recommend it for anyone visiting Koh Tao!Looking forward to be back diving with you again soon!
I had an amazing experience with Sairee Cottage. My instructor was Emmy and she was incredible. I haven’t been swimming in quite awhile and struggled to complete my swim test at first but she was extremely encouraging and let me come early the next day to practice and test again. She was also so understanding the first time we went underwater with a regulator and really helped keep me calm so I could learn everything and enjoy the experience. I couldn’t have made it through the whole course without her, highly recommend! I also had Scott as an instructor. During our first dive, Emmy went to support another diver and I ended up being Scott’s buddy. He not only led the group of us but also made me feel very safe with having to change buddies. I did my first two skills test with him in open water and it went great. Very thankful to have Scott as another instructor and an amazing first buddy!
The diving service at Sairee cottage is top level, not just because they have their diving gear in good condition but because of the attention they give to the customer as a person. Your enjoyment and safety are their priorities at all times.They are not the cheapest place to do your diving courses in koh tao, but the prices are totally worth it because of the extra value you get out of the course, they go the extra mile to teach you things that are not covered by the courses but will result handy and useful for your future as a diver, I’m 100% sure that you can easily get cheaper diving in koh tao but to rival sairee cottage quality and what they deliver is gonna be hard.I did my diving instructor course with them and my master scuba diver trainer with them, this takes a little over a month, so I feel confident to say I had plenty of time to see their organization and values, and loved them from day one there was people constantly checking up on my progress to get the visa paper work and my transportation to get to koh tao weeks before even getting there, answering all the question I had about the course before it even started and always in a proffesional and kind tone.The idc course was well structured and help each candidate study in the way that was more efficient for them, so there’s a lot of personalized help provided by Marcel and Julian at all times. The class room environment was well maintained, comfortable and had good amenities like a private bathroom just for us and coffe and tea always available, they treat you really well an not just because I was a customer. My girlfriend and I got to koh tao together and we didn’t stay at sairee cottage while I took the course but even so they welcomed here to all our spaces and maked her feel like part of the groupThe classes are well structured and go a step beyond what PADI request from you, respecting all their standards, an goes even further to offer safer and more enjoyable diving and teaching technics that you can only get with a course director as experienced as Marcel.The instructor exam was exactly as the things we practiced in class and Marcel and Julian where always present to help us be in the right mind set and give encouragement until the endI had incredibly high expectations of the place and Marcel and they meet them and surpassed them
We had an absolute five star open water diving course at Sairee cottage! ?Our amazing instructors, Nick and Dell, were very professional, knowledgeable about the marine life environment, and also just totally fun to be around with. This helped us overcome our initial anxiety about diving and turn it into an absolute unforgettable experience. Sairee cottage has great facilities for practicing, and is perfectly located right next to a bunch of cool restaurants and bars to hang out after the diving. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed! Thanks again Nick, Dell & the entire Sairee cottage crew for this amazing vacation! ?

The course was well-structured, preparing us thoroughly for the Instructor Exam while building confidence in real-world teaching.The supportive team, stunning location, and camaraderie among candidates made the experience unforgettable.

I did my divemasters ar Sairee Cottage Diving and couldn’t be happier! I stayed for a month in the dorms and shared the experience of the course with my roomates.The organisation was great and very flexible, instructors were of high expertise, facilities and equipment were also quite good. The best part for me the friendships and lifetime spent with my coursemates and at the dorms doing life together in Koh Tao. Very satisfied!
I spent a month and a half at Saitee Cottage. Between Christmas, New Year, the IDC… ?? Everything was perfect! Marcel and Julian looked after us wonderfully from start to finish. They made these few weeks a great experience! Thank you to them for their help, their kindness and for sharing all their knowledge with us. It was great, thank you. You are superstars!
I did my dive master course here and the equipment and facilities here are unmatched.I found the dive shop is full of amicable and peppy staff who are more than willing to help you with your underwater journey. Martin and Marcel are no exception to this! I never saw Martin without a smile on his face and his perpetual optimism is simply uplifting.Martin is an exemplary mentor, his extensive dive knowledge coupled with his many years as an international DJ allow him to balance work with play and he always brings a creative flare to his classes. Martin always ensured I felt I was in safe hands and answered any quieres. His bright board shorts always put me at ease knowing he was easy to spot amongst the vibrant marine life.I couldn’t recommend this dive shop enough and I look back on my time here with profound fondness.
Such an incredible experience! Tony and Reilly, were amazing instructors. The school was very professional and all of the gear was in top form. Despite some challenging conditions, the whole group completed the Open Water Certification and two of us went on to complete the Advanced Open Water Certification. The Night Five was thrilling.
