Thailand, some 700km south of Bangkok and about 80km

The reason why people come to Samui
is, quite simply, the beaches which remain stunning
after decades of development, helped in no small part
by a height restriction on new buildings. A certain
pair of rocks on Lamai amuses some visitors..

There are innumerable options for
a drink, ranging from the loud and brash tourist pubs
and girlie bars of Chaweng to the candle-lit romantic
bars of Bophut. Figure on 80 baht for a local beer(Singha,

Koh Samui Thailand Hotel
Travel
 Ko
Samui is an island off the east coast of the Kra
Isthmus in Thailand, close to the mainland Surat
Thani town. It is Thailand's second largest island,
with an area of 228.7 km² and a population
of 47,874 (2006).
Back in the halcyon days of the 1960's, there were
no Lonely Planets to guide the trickle of adventurers
travelling overland between Europe and Asia. Unlike
today's pampered and ubiquitous backpackers, yesterday's
intrepid young explorers had to rely on word of
mouth advice about the route lying ahead. Amongst
other essentials, this included "approved" lodgings,
where kindred spirits globe-trotting in opposite
directions congregated, and exchanged information
about rutted roads already endured.
If Koh Samui is well known today, the first reverent
mention of the name was most likely heard in the
packed downstairs restaurant of that dirty but charismatic
tryst. Amongst the pungent smoke billowing from
the cook's wok, word frequently passed around about
an idyllic island in the south east of Thailand,
very difficult to reach, a place with only walking
tracks, and as close to being paradise as Mother
Earth can possibly provide. Furthermore, this was
no tiny islet, but a large and mountainous tropical
haven with rushing streams, thick forests, and dozens
of deserted pristine palm-fringed beaches, the stuff
of dreams and fantasy.
