Set within lush, tropical gardens, this luxurious sanctuary occupies a prime location overlooking one of Koh Samui’s most beautiful beaches. Capturing the laid back essence of living beside the sea, the infinity-edged swimming pool practically merges with the ocean and the beautifully appointed suites and villas give the impression of being open to the elements with sliding glass doors leading directly onto furnished terraces.

My boyfriend and I have just stayed at this beautiful resort for 4 nights and would recommend it to anyone. The grounds of the resort are beautiful and the beach is soft white sand with blue/turquoise waters. The grounds are absolute immaculate with beautiful flowers/trees around and birds tweeting! It’s absolute paradise here. We just had the standard room and it was very clean with a comfortable bed and plenty of space for us. The food at breakfast and in the restaurants is amazing, we didn’t even venture out of the hotel for evening meal/lunch because the menu was so extensive and we wanted to try everything! The staff here are very attentive, polite and friendly! I would not hesitate to return to this beautiful resort and would love to come back in future. Read less

A Perfect Escape: My Stay at a Thai Paradise Why I’ll Be Back This wasn’t just a stay—it was an experience. Anantara Koh Samui Lawana has a way of making you feel like you’ve found a little piece of paradise. The staff at The Anantara Koh Samui Lawana were incredible—friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring. Our villa was stunning. It had this beautiful balance of traditional Thai design and modern comfort. We had a private pool surrounded by green trees. Every detail in the villa felt thoughtful—fresh flowers, a super comfy bed, and little touches like a personalized bed time note from the staff made us feel so special. The food at the resort deserves its own spotlight. The Thai dishes were so flavorful and authentic, and the seafood was incredibly fresh. If you’re looking for a getaway that’s both relaxing and unforgettable, I can’t recommend this place enough. I’m already dreaming about going back! Rating: 5/5 Read less
