Akuvara enjoys a privileged beachfront location with private beach access on the exquisite island of Koh Samui, the third largest island in Thailand.

It is the perfect size to ensure a tranquil holiday: small enough to retain its charm and character, yet large enough to benefit from a range of high-class bars, restaurants, shops, recreational pursuits, spas, retreats and more – so you can enjoy the facilities of a much larger island without the crowds!

Tucked away in an idyllic corner on the west coast, this is the dream holiday destination for those looking for an adventure! In the water which surrounds this fabulous resort you can water-ski or snorkel, or head over to Koh Tao, one of the world’s best diving spots, and explore mesmerising coral reefs up close!

Throughout the island you can explore temples, waterfalls and vibrant markets, zip line through the jungle, go on ATV safaris or to a Thai boxing tournament, try bungee jumping, indulge at a rum distillery, lounge on some of the world’s best beaches, or even visit the Big Buddha and the mummified monks for an unforgettable day trip!

For a calmer day out, the Santiburi Golf and Country Club is unique for its beauty and will provide you with the relaxing day you’ll crave after all this excitement.

The island is easily accessed from local airports: there are direct daily flights from Bangkok, Phuket, Singapore, Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur. There’s also a regular ferry service.

Koh Samui

Koh Samui, an idyllic tropical island nestled in the Gulf of Thailand, is a paradise that beckons visitors with its pristine beaches, stunning monuments, lush jungles and vibrant culture. This enchanting destination seamlessly combines the allure of a laid-back beach retreat with the excitement of diverse activities and attractions.

One of the island's iconic jewels is the Big Buddha, a colossal golden statue that stands at 12 metres tall. This sacred landmark offers a serene atmosphere for reflection and stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. Another must-visit is the mystical Hin Ta and Hin Yai rocks, natural formations that resemble male and female genitalia, surrounded by fascinating local folklore. Koh Samui boasts so many stunning architectural marvels. The majestic Wat Plai Laem is a Buddhist temple which stands out with its intricate artwork and vibrant colours. The imposing 18-armed statue of Guanyin, the goddess of compassion, is amazing while the Secret Buddha Garden, hidden in the island's lush interior, showcases a collection of statues and sculptures that depict various scenes from Buddhist mythology.

For a taste of cultural immersion, the Fisherman's Village in Bophut is a charming blend of traditional Thai architecture and modern amenities. This area hosts a lively night market with an array of stalls selling handicrafts, clothing and delicious local cuisine. Visitors enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of Chaweng Beach, renowned for its lively nightlife, bustling markets and a wonderful array of beachfront bars and restaurants. The charming fishing villages of Mae Nam and Lamai offer a glimpse into the island's more traditional side, where visitors can interact with locals, sample fresh seafood and experience the authentic pace of life.

Adventure seekers will find their haven in the island's water-based activities. Snorkeling and diving in the crystal-clear waters surrounding Koh Samui reveal a mesmerising underwater world teeming with vibrant coral reefs and exotic marine life. The island also offers opportunities for kayaking, paddleboarding and boat excursions to nearby islets.

For those seeking relaxation, spa treatments and wellness retreats abound, with luxury resorts offering traditional Thai massages and holistic therapies. Yoga enthusiasts can partake in beachside sessions, harmonizing body and mind with the soothing sounds of the ocean.

Koh Samui's accessibility makes it an ideal hub to explore nearby islands and mainland attractions. A short boat ride takes visitors to Koh Phangan, renowned for its Full Moon Parties and pristine beaches. The vibrant and culturally rich city of Surat Thani on the mainland is easily accessible, providing a glimpse into local Thai life.

Koh Samui caters to families with an array of family-friendly attractions. The Samui Aquarium and Tiger Zoo provide an opportunity for children to marvel at exotic marine life and get up close with majestic tigers. The Coco Splash Adventure & Water Park offers a thrilling day out with water slides, pools and activities for all ages. Nature-loving families can explore the lush interior of the island, trekking to waterfalls such as Na Muang, where refreshing natural pools await. Elephant sanctuaries also provide a chance for children to interact with these gentle giants in an ethical and educational environment.

Koh Samui is a destination that offers an unforgettable experience. Whether it is the tranquil beaches, cultural landmarks or thrilling adventures, this tropical gem in the Gulf of Thailand is a testament to the allure of Southeast Asia.

You all went out of your way to make sure that every details was taken care of: vegetarian, gluten free, dairy free food, etc. all superbly handled by the incredible Chef Bee. And thank you for everything the lovely beach Barbecue for New Year's Eve!. We all loved everything about the service and the Villa. Most of all, we are especially appreciated of your warm hospitality , your attention to detail, and your enthusiastic welcome. Wishing you all a very happy and joyful 2020!

  • Our accommodation was perfect

    on 13/07/2019

    I wanted to pass on our thanks for enabling us to have the most wonderful holiday. Our accommodation was perfect, there was not one thing we could fault. The cleanliness inside and out was faultless. Our food absolutely delicious and the staff catered to our every need. Both May and Tee were most professional and a pleasure to deal with and advised us on lots of activities and venues to visit. Tee and the staff managed to organize breakfast and showers for us on our last day when the power went out so we were not inconvenienced at all. A credit to them.

  • The villa is just super!
