Our Inspector's Highlights

  • The Koh Samui hotel is well situated on a quiet stretch of Choeng Mon Beach, where crystal-clear waters and soft sands provide the ideal setting for morning swims or sunset strolls. It’s a peaceful, less-crowded alternative to the island’s bustling beaches.
  • All of Kimpton Kitalay Samui’s 138 accommodations offer an air of barefoot luxury with wall-to-wall windows, freestanding tubs and rattan details that artfully bring the beach indoors. The 20 luxurious pool villas up the ante with expansive outdoor spaces, including plunge pools, daybeds and sweeping views of the Gulf of Thailand.
  • The serene, beachfront Kitavaree Spa & Wellness specializes in traditional Thai treatments using organic, locally inspired ingredients like coconut oil and lemongrass. A massage by the ocean with the sound of waves as a backdrop is an extra indulgent experience.
