The panoramic vistas encompass the petite Koh Samui isle and stretch out to Koh Phang Nga. The island of Koh Samui boasts spectacular white sandy beaches, vibrant cultural attractions, delicious local cuisine, enchanting islets, colourful markets, plenty of evening entertainment and a calendar brimming with special events. Temple Fairs, commemorating significant dates in the Buddhist calendar, metamorphose the temple grounds into miniature festivals, complete with fairground amusements and games for all to revel in. The serene and gilded Big Buddha, reigning from the pinnacle of a ceremonial stairway at Wat Phra Yai, the mummified monks at Wat Khunaram, the captivating Wat Khao Hua Jook temple, the cascading Hin Lat Waterfall, the enigmatic Secret Buddha Garden, the allure of Fisherman’s Village in Bophut and the enchanting rock formations of Hin Ta and Hin Yai are within easy reach of the villa. The Wat Teepankorn temple, nestled atop a mountain near Lamai, can be accessed via an off-road expedition. The towering Buddha statue and the breathtaking panoramic vistas from the summit are simply exquisite. The Secret Buddha Garden, crowning the Tar Nim Waterfall peak, offers majestic views along with a splendid assortment of statues. Crafted by Nim Thongsuk, a venerable Samui fruit farmer, the garden’s statues and temples dot the family’s land, creating a legacy that continued until his passing at the age of 91. Each statue conceals an enthralling tale. Boat trips to the Ang Thong National Marine Park or Koh Nang Yuan, picturesque islands adorned with expansive sandbars and vibrant coral reefs, are trendy. These excursions offer hiking, snorkelling, kayaking and diving opportunities, unveiling the islands’ awe-inspiring scenic magnificence. Dusky leaf monkeys, long-tailed macaques, leopard cats, wild boar, and otters, alongside flocks of exotic avian species and kaleidoscopic schools of fish, may grace your sightings. A trip to Koh Phangan, Thailand’s fifth largest island, allures party enthusiasts with its legendary half-moon and full-moon revelries. The island’s pristine character features expansive, ivory-sand beaches, a hilly and luxuriant tropical jungle interior, and remarkable dive sites. For those inclined towards revelry, the neon-adorned heart of central Chewang, a brief drive south from the villa, awaits. Many exotic bars host a carnival of inexpensive drinks, pulsating music and even risqué go-go bars and ladyboy shows. The six-kilometre-long Chaweng Beach hosts vibrant beach parties, water parks, mini-golf, cocktail establishments and dining venues. Cheweng stands as the island’s bustling epicentre. The golden sands of Choeng Mon Beach and the endless expanse of Bangrak Beach lure visitors as well. Bangrak, adorned with trendy beach clubs such as Chi, Tembo and The Prestige, offers a peaceful ambience alongside active fishermen, dog walkers, and sunset admirers. Bophut’s Fisherman’s Village is an absolute must-see. The rustic buildings have morphed into chic eateries, boutiques, gift shops, coffee havens, art galleries and dive centres. On Fridays, the village transforms into a vivacious Walking Street market, a splendid locale for buying souvenirs and savouring street fare. This village stands as the neon-lit nucleus of the island, alive with nightlife, shopping, massages and charming boho cafés.
