SALA Samui Choengmon Beach Resort

SALA Samui Choengmon Beach Resort has a stunning setting, surrounded by the creamy sands of Choeng Mon Beach, on Koh Samui’s north-eastern tip. 

Think laidback beach-house luxury in the crisp whites and dark woods of the interiors in the gorgeous rooms and villas, which each come with their own private deck or terrace and lovely indoor/outdoor bathrooms.

A team of expert Thai and Western chefs man the kitchens, where they cook up a delicious selection of local and global dishes, served by the beach or in the privacy of your room. From delicious breakfast buffets to irresistible sunset cocktails, dine and drink in style while savouring the sea views.

For couples, up the romance with a private meal on the sand, made for just the two of you by your personal chef.

Head to the spa, set in the tropical gardens amongst the lotus ponds, for some blissful relaxation and pampering, with treatments using natural herbs and spices, and cool off with a dip in the pool.

Try your hand at a little Thai cookery with a culinary class to achieve that perfect balance of sweet, spicy and salty that the local food is celebrated for, dive into the crystalline waters of the Andaman Sea for a snorkelling or diving expedition, or go paddle boarding or kayaking, and dry off on the picturesque beach afterwards.

If you’re after a spot of culture, visit the region’s ancient temples or join the celebrating locals if you’re lucky enough to be there during one of the many festivals.
