The resort is very spacious, you really need to call a buggy to get around. Nicely landscaped grounds and ocean views. The pool villas are private, luxurious and very comfortable. A 10 out of 10. The resort staff is exceptionally helpful, welcoming and professional. In order to get to the Samui beaches, take the free shuttle into town and walk a few steps. But don’t expect to be alone under the palm trees, the north east shore is definitely the touristy part of the island.
