Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui

About

A hilltop Four Seasons on Koh Samui's northeastern coast, with villas and private infinity pools cascading down toward the Gulf of Thailand. Traditional Thai architectural language reimagined at the luxury scale, with dramatic ocean views from every level.

Bensley Design Studios' 71-villa cliffside property opened February 2007 on Koh Samui's northwest tip — built on a former coconut orchard with 856 of the original trees retained, every hillside villa carrying a private infinity pool over the Gulf. Pla Pla (seafood and grilled meats) anchors the dining; Sumalee Khunpet runs the regional Thai program at KOH Thai Kitchen. The Secret Garden Spa pulls techniques from Thai, Yogic and broader Asian traditions; an in-house marine biologist runs the Coral Conservation Project.
