Ko Samui is the original island paradise. It is a resort island, which boasts a sample of everything Thai. There are white powder beaches, unbelievable diving, fishing, water sports, golf and mountain biking, as well as some of the most awe-inspiring scenery in Thailand. A Thai holiday villa in Ko Samui also lets you visit the close island of Koh Phangan, the location for the renowned full moon parties.
A lovely, hidden away beach, Taling Ngam Beach is dominated by the sprawling hilltop- to- the- water's- edge Le Meridien Baan Taling Ngam. Pristine jungle shrouded beaches and stunning views of Anthong Marine National Park combine to make Taling Ngam one of the most picturesque parts on the island. That said, if you're after a relaxing, lazy, holiday above all else, Taling Ngam is hard to beat. The area near Le Meridien has some excellent swimming and sunbathing, so if you're just swinging by on a Samui-circuit, be sure to take a dip. Luckily you don't have to stay there to enjoy the beach -- day-trippers are welcome, and Taling Ngam is a world away from much of the rest of Ko Samui.
