A tropical Thai paradise known for luxury resorts, soft sandy beaches, marine adventures, and a laid-back yet stylish vibe.
About Koh Samui
Koh Samui, nestled in the Gulf of Thailand, blends barefoot luxury with natural beauty. This idyllic island is famed for its powdery beaches, swaying palm trees, and turquoise waters. Whether you're sipping cocktails at a beach club, snorkelling through marine parks, or exploring colourful temples, Koh Samui offers something for every kind of traveller. With its spa retreats, vegan cafés, and five-star resorts like the Four Seasons and W Koh Samui, this island is a wellness sanctuary and adventure playground all in one.
My Experience
Our 4-day itinerary was a blissful mix of luxury, relaxation, and exploration. From watching the sunset with cocktails at Woobar to kayaking in the Ang Thong Marine Park, every moment felt curated for joy. Dining under the stars at Tree Tops and indulging in spa sessions at Tamarind Springs added a serene, rejuvenating touch. The vibrant spiritual energy at Wat Plai Laem, paired with adrenaline-pumping zip-lining through the jungle, made Koh Samui an unforgettable experience.
