Samui
Pared-down Thai luxury. Natural materials, teak, bamboo, and local vegetation everywhere. Earthy and serene, with none of the fuss that the word 'resort' sometimes implies. The vibe is private-villa-in-the-jungle, not hotel corridor.
Book Table 99 at Dining on the Rocks specifically — it's the legendary table with the best sight lines over the Gulf, particularly on full moon nights when you can watch the party lights over Koh Pha Ngan.
Why It Matters
Holder of Two Michelin Keys and 20 years of operation. Dining on the Rocks — 10 terraced cliffside decks above the Gulf of Thailand — is award-winning and draws diners from across the island. The resort also has its own working Farm on the Hill with goats, chickens, and herb gardens that feed both the restaurants and guest experiences.
Six Senses Samui sits on a gently sloping headland at the northern tip of Koh Samui, inspired by a Thai fishing village and built into natural tropical vegetation. All 67 villas have either ocean or garden views, 60 come with private infinity pools, and you get your own dedicated GEM (Guest Experience Maker) who handles everything from boat charters to jungle drives. The resort earned Two Michelin Keys in 2024 — its 20th anniversary — and its flagship restaurant, Dining on the Rocks, is widely considered one of the best tables on the island.
