The island covers 228.7 km² and has a resident population of approximately 60,000. Major beach areas include Chaweng (the longest beach at 7 km), Lamai, Bophut (home to Fisherman's Village), Mae Nam, Choeng Mon, and Taling Ngam. Samui International Airport (IATA: USM) is a private airport operated by Bangkok Airways. ## FAQ **Q: What is the best area to stay in Koh Samui?** A: Chaweng is the most popular area, featuring the island's longest beach at 7 kilometres with the best nightlife, dining, and water sports. Bophut (Fisherman's Village) offers a boutique, romantic atmosphere with weekly walking street markets and beachfront restaurants. Lamai balances activity and relaxation with renowned spas and natural rock formations. Mae Nam and Choeng Mon are quieter, upscale areas suited to families and luxury seekers — Choeng Mon hosts several of the island's most prestigious five-star resorts. Taling Ngam on the southwest coast is the most secluded, with panoramic sunset views and limited crowds. **Q: When is the best time to visit Koh Samui?** A: The dry season from December through April offers the most reliable weather, with average temperatures of 28–32°C and calm Gulf of Thailand waters ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Peak season runs December to February, coinciding with European winter holidays, which brings the highest hotel rates and beach crowds. The shoulder season from May to November offers 30–50% lower accommodation prices. Koh Samui's microclimate differs from mainland Thailand — even wet-season visits often feature sunny mornings with brief afternoon showers that rarely disrupt travel. The wettest months are October and November. **Q: How do I get from Koh Samui Airport to my hotel?** A: Koh Samui Airport (USM) is centrally located and serves Bangkok (both Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang), Chiang Mai, and Phuket via Bangkok Airways and Thai AirAsia. Most 4 and 5-star luxury hotels offer complimentary airport transfers — confirm at booking. Independent options: metered taxis cost 300–500 THB to Chaweng/Bophut (10–15 min), 400–600 THB to Lamai (20 min), or 600–900 THB to southwest locations (35–45 min). Shared songthaew minibuses run 80–150 THB per person. Grab ride-hailing operates on the island with transparent app pricing. **Q: What does a luxury hotel in Koh Samui cost per night?** A: Five-star beachfront resorts typically cost USD 250–500/night, with premium properties reaching USD 600–1,000+ during peak season (December–February). Private pool villas start at approximately USD 400/night and can exceed USD 2,000 for ultra-exclusive properties. Four-star hotels offer strong value at USD 150–300/night, often including breakfast. The green season (May–October) brings 30–50% price reductions across all tiers. Quoted prices on our platform include Thailand's 7% VAT and 10% service charge unless otherwise noted. **Q: Do Koh Samui hotels offer free cancellation?** A: Most properties allow free cancellation 48–72 hours before arrival on standard rooms. Private pool villas and premium suites typically require 7–14 days' notice. Fully refundable rates carry a 10–20% premium over non-refundable fares. Non-refundable policies are commonly enforced during peak periods: Christmas, New Year, and Songkran (April). Always confirm cancellation terms by email after booking. Travel insurance is recommended for peak-season reservations over USD 1,000 in total value. **Q: Is Koh Samui suitable for families with children?** A: Yes — Koh Samui is one of Southeast Asia's most family-friendly island destinations. Mae Nam and Choeng Mon beaches have shallow, calm waters safe for young children. Most four and five-star resorts provide complimentary baby cots, highchairs, children's menus, and babysitting services (approximately 500–800 THB/hour). The Holiday Inn Resort Samui Bophut Beach operates a dedicated kids' club. Family activities include ethical elephant sanctuaries, Ang Thong Marine Park day trips, kayaking, snorkelling, and the Fisherman's Village Friday night market.
