After a week in Phuket, I decided to check out another Thai island, Koh Samui. The Isle has caught my attention in the past few months because of a string of luxury hotel openings:
Four Seasons Koh Samui
Banyan Tree Koh Samui
W Retreat Koh Samui
I was on Samui for two day whirlwind tour. I didn't have much time to sit on the beach, but the island did manage to send me positive vibes. If Phuket is the grittier side of Honolulu, then Samui is sleepy Kauai with the design sense of a chic Mexican fishing village.
If you go, don't miss out on the adorable shopping street in the fishing village of Bo Phat Beach where I shot this photo of this gem of a beach cafe.
I want to go to there!
