Overview
Koh Samui is Thailand's second-largest island -- a tropical paradise in the Gulf of Thailand known for its palm-fringed beaches, coconut groves, and lush mountainous interior. From the lively shores of Chaweng to the tranquil bays of Bophut and Lamai, the island offers a refined Thai island experience.
For points travelers, Koh Samui is anchored by the stunning Conrad Koh Samui, a Hilton portfolio standout that sits on a private hilltop overlooking the Gulf of Thailand. Marriott and IHG also have a growing presence on the island.
Beyond the resorts, Koh Samui offers a rich mix of Thai culture, wellness, and adventure. Visit the iconic Big Buddha temple, explore the night markets of Fisherman's Village, or island-hop to the stunning Ang Thong National Marine Park.
