READ MORE about Six Senses SamuiOur Inspector's Highlights
- You can’t go wrong with any of Six Senses Samui’s 67 sea-facing villas. The higher up your villa, the better the view, so be sure to request a hilltop accommodation if panoramic vistas are your goal.
- From the moment you arrive at the Koh Samui hotel, you know you’re in good hands. A refreshing carrot, lime, honey, mint and apple juice, paired with a chilled lemongrass-scented towel, welcomes you with a thoughtful touch and a refreshing start to your stay.
- The eco-friendly resort takes sustainability seriously, eliminating single-use plastics, implementing water-saving programs and operating its own Farm on the Hill, where food waste is turned into compost for growing produce onsite.
- A stunning, gulf-facing infinity pool offers gorgeous vistas from every angle. Large enough to swim laps, the pool is more than sufficient for a hotel of this size, especially when nearly all villas feature their own private plunge. For a refreshing morning swim, head to the pool at Drift at the Beach to bask in the glow of the sunrise side of the resort.
- Don’t miss your chance to indulge in a treatment at the Six Senses Samui Spa. Thai-inspired rituals, four-hand massages and reiki therapy can all be enjoyed from one of six private treatment villas, all flooded with natural light from wall-to-wall windows overlooking the Gulf of Thailand.
The Restaurants
- Acclaimed eatery Dining on the Rocks is regarded as one of the best restaurants on Koh Samui, so be sure to snag a reservation early. Perched on the very tip of the headland, the restaurant boasts 270-degree views of the gulf along with an innovative menu of sustainably sourced seafood.
- Enjoy Thai fare and Western comfort food with a view at the more casual Dining on the Hill. Snag a seat on the terrace to savor dinner with over-sea sunsets.
- Instagram-worthy Drift at the Beach serves up wood-fired fare and refreshing cocktails just steps from the sand. Sip on a tropical tipple or cozy up on one of the overwater daybeds to enjoy light bites with delicious vistas.
- For an enchanting start to a romantic evening, grab a seat at Drinks on the Rocks. Savor sundowners such as the signature Citrus Twist alongside one of the island’s best views.
- For an unforgettable proposal or romantic celebration, Dining by the Edge offers a private dining experience that sets the scene.
