From Packed to Private: Koh Samui's Best Beaches |
 |
| Koh Samui is a beach-lover's paradise ? the sand is silken soft, the water is not too cold and clear for meters and meters, and shady palms line the sandy strip. There are also plenty of decadent, lazy beach activities to indulge in like having your hair braided with traditional Thai decorations, eating delicious salt-fragranced takeaway food, or having a traditional Thai massage - paradise! There is every sort of beach in Koh Samui, from the utterly private (no massages or braiding here), to the busiest and most bustling. Here we look at Samui luxury villas for rent and Samui accommodation that allows you to indulge in the beach lifestyle of the island, as well as reviewing some of the most popular, and most private beaches. |

Baan Sairee is a 12 person Samui villa that is set right on the beach in the Laem Sor area of Koh Samui. The beach at your front door is a private, quiet one, overlooking Koh Taen and Koh Matsum. The villa for rent in Samui is decorated in traditional Thai style, and includes a centrepiece large antique wooden table on the expansive wooden terrace. There is an open air shower at this luxury Samui villa for rent, so you can smell the salt air and imagine it is the ocean you are washing in!
Baan Tamarind is another spectacular choice of Samui luxury villa for rent for large groups, with direct beach access from the villa, and a large sun deck to enjoy ocean views from without all that cleaning out of sand! There are 5 air conditioned bedrooms in this Samui luxury villa, all featuring indoor/outdoor bathrooms, letting you enjoy the comfortable Thai climate. The lounging and dining sala at this Samui luxury villa is right next to the beach, and the full time Thai chef, twice daily cleaning service, and daily breakfast provided mean that you can maximize your beach time!
But for smaller groups of up to 4 people, Bacaya is an ideal Thai vacation villa in Samui. The private infinity edge pool is only meters away from the ocean - the edge of it butts onto the sand. There is a fully integrated alarm and security system as well as a night security guard, as the Samui luxury villa for rent is right on the beach. The in-villa wine selection makes beach reading a sophisticated, sultry affair, and the babysitting service just may give you some of the most special moments of your holiday!
You will probably find it hard to avoid Chaweng Beach if you are staying at a Samui vacation villa, and even Lamai beach, once unknown, is getting larger. If you want to try beach cuisine, or massages on the beach though, these are the places to go. If you are in search of serenity, Maenam Beach and Taling Ngam beaches are the most secluded of Koh Samui's beaches, while Big Buddha beach is right near many great Samui villas for rent, and also a good beach to say good bye to Samui at, before you hop on a plane at the nearby airport.
