Koh Samui is the country's third largest island and in our opinion one of the best place for a beach holiday in Thailand. Rapid development has seen tourism on Koh Samui flourish. But through a commitment to small scale projects Koh Samui has managed to retain a sense of exclusivity which echoes the bohemian allure that first attracted travellers to this hedonistic playground. Nowadays the best way to describe Koh Samui is sophisticated yet fun and while there are some areas to avoid you are still able to find real solitude if you know where to look. |
