Why Kids Love it
Kids will love splashing in the pool and napping in the hammock. The beach is so easily accessible from the villa, kids will spend time in the sand, exploring the rocks and swimming in the warm water of the Gulf of Thailand. The experienced chef is used to fussy eaters and can cook delicious Thai dishes to a seafood BBQ to pastas and salads. A separate and safe soft play area for the kids with inflatable pool toys can be occupied if they need a few hours off the pool and beach. The adults can get some down time as one of the villa staff will be very happy to supervise the kids as they play. Koh Samui is a family-friendly island well set up for fun. There are plenty of things to do including Coco Splash Adventure & Water Park, Aquapark Samui, snorkeling and kayaking at the Ang Thong Marine National 1 hour off the coast or ziplining in the rainforest at Samui Canopy Adventure.

The golden Laem Sor pagoda is within walking distance of the villa. Family trips include the serene islands of Koh Tan and Koh Matsum, accessible by boat near the villa. There is plenty of sightseeing and exploration to do in the area – check out nearby waterfalls, elephant rides and village culture.

Koh Samui, Thailand
Sun, sand and mile-wide smiles
Kids are welcomed everywhere with wide grins on Koh Samui. From white sand beaches and clear water to boat trip to Ang Thong Marine Park, kayaking, snorkelling and scuba lessons for older kids, there is plenty to do in and around the sea to keep everyone entertained. Eat bananas fresh from the tree, play in the gentle waves on Mae Nam beach, and don’t miss jungle waterfalls and butterfly gardens on the island’s south coast.
