A family owned development, this was the first luxury hotel on Koh Samui. All rooms in the vast area of 25 acres of land, offer sea views, with three main types of accommodation namely Beachfront Suites, Cottage Suites and Tongsai Grand Villas. It is the Tongsai Grand Villas that have greatest appeal. The inside air-conditioned bedroom (54 square metres) features teakwood floor, rattan bed, celadon lamp and Thai silk curtains. On the massive terrace (81 Square metres) there is a bathtub, a washbasin, a bar and a gazebo. The resort’s signature accommodation “Akorn Villa” was named as a tribute to the late Akorn Hoontrakul, the founder of the hotel. This 194 square metres villa has two bedrooms and the terrace is furnished with Thai antiques.
