Seafan Beach Resort  

On Maenam Beach in Koh Samui — a calm, family-friendly beachfront hideaway. Roughly a 10-minute walk to Maenam town center and the local pier, about 8 km from the island’s city center, and approximately 15 km from Samui Airport. Nearby islands Koh Phangan and Koh Tao are easily reached from the area.

Tucked into 4 hectares of lush tropical gardens, the resort has 30 native wooden cottages in beachfront, sea-view and garden settings. Rooms come with en-suite showers, hairdryer, double bed, minibar, in-room safe, direct-dial phone, individually controlled air-conditioning and a private terrace. The feel is private and romantic, with rustic timber touches and sea-breeze mornings.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool or stroll to the private beach. Relax with a Thai massage or in the spa room. On-site leisure includes a TV lounge, table tennis and pool/snooker; water sports like jet-skiing and diving are available nearby. 24-hour reception, laundry and guest parking keep things easy.

Internet access is available for guests, plus a safe-deposit box and on-site parking.

Start with a buffet breakfast and choose from set-menu dinners in the on-site restaurant. A bar is also on property for casual drinks after the beach.
