Coral Bay Resort, Koh Samui, Thailand

Coral Bay Resort is designed for travelers in search of a relaxing and eco-friendly holiday experience. The peaceful natural environment of Coral Bay Resort minimizes the stress of today's urban lifestyle and offers a welcome alternative to the crowded concrete establishments that, unfortunately, are becoming all too prevalent on Koh Samui.
Our 53 bungalows are set amid 10 acres of lush tropical gardens, ensuring an atmosphere of serenity and privacy. Surrounded by luxuriant coconut palms and flowering shrubs, the charming Samui-style dwellings (built of wood and stone with traditional thatched roofs) offer high standards of comfort.

Our Philosophy
Since opening in 1982, we've worked hard to maintain the delicate balance between preserving the natural charm of Koh Samui while providing the amenities for our discerning guests. The abundant tropical flora creates a sanctuary for many species of birds, butterflies and squirrels. Ever conscious of the environment, we use recycled waste water to maintain the extensive gardens and new plants in our nursery. The waste water is pretreated through three stages of septic tanks before filtering through a natural treatment system of gravel, water hyacinths, cattails and fish. This "constructed wetlands" system has enabled us to indulge our passion for gardening on an island where fresh water is a precious commodity.

Situated on Yai Noi Bay, north Chaweng Beach on the northeastern part of Koh Samui, about 10 minutes from the Samui airport.

Bangkok Airways operates over 10 direct 70-minute flights daily from Bangkok to Samui. In addition Thai Airways has a daily service from Bangkok to Surat Thani (on the mainland). Flying on Thai Airways involves a 1-hour bus ride from the airport to the ferry and another 90-minute ferry trip to Koh Samui. The resort is about 45 minutes away from the ferry jetty. Taking an overnight airconditioned coach or train to Surat Thani and then changing to the ferry or express boat is another option.
