Koh Samui has moved upmarket from its backpacking heyday but lost little of its natural charm. Amid the coconut groves and palm trees you’ll find gorgeous luxury hotels and spas, plus countless beaches where you can swim, chill, party and dine under the moonlight with your toes in the sand.

Hayes & Jarvis says
Koh Samui has moved on from hippy-retreat to become one of Thailand’s most popular holiday spots. This idyllic island in the Gulf of Siam has retained its laid-back atmosphere, making it one of our top-selling destinations.
Koh Samui is just 25 kms long and 21 kms wide, making it easy to explore the powder-soft beaches, age-old coconut plantations and waterfalls.
The best of Koh Samui’s picture-perfect beaches are Chaweng, Lamai, Bo Phut and Choeng Mon. Keen scuba-divers and snorkellers will be in paradise here thanks to the island’s close proximity to the Ang Thong Marine National Park. Koh Samui is also home to a colourful array of restaurants and bars, not forgetting the legendary beach parties.
Hayes & Jarvis has selected a variety of beautiful resorts and boutique hotels around the island to suit those seeking tranquil seclusion or a bit more action. We recommend Anantara BoPhut Resort & Spa for a true tropical island experience, the Imperial Samui Hotel on Chaweng Noi beach, ideal for sun-worshippers, and the Six Senses Hideaway for an indulgent spa escape.
Our ‘unmistakable value’ offers from these hotels include free room upgrades, meals, spa treatments and even two-weeks-for-the-price-of-one deals.
