Situated near the quieter northern beach resort of Bophut, the Anantara Resort on the island of Koh Samui has an idyllic setting looking out across the Gulf of Thailand. The resort offers something for everyone, whether you want to relax on the beach, by the pool or in the spa, or enjoy activities such as water sports, tennis, exercise classes and cooking lessons.
Accommodation is spacious and well-appointed, set in tropical gardens or looking out to sea and tastefully decorated in a modern Thai style. You can stroll through the delightful tropical gardens filled with water features and lush foliage and tuck in to delicious Thai cuisine at dinner, before cocktails at sunset to end the day in style.
We feel that the Anantara Bophut provides the ideal setting for those seeking the convenience of walking to a wide range of restaurants in the nearby Fisherman’s Village. The range of facilities and activities gives it a wide appeal for families and couples alike.
