The COAST Koh Samui - Adults Only Resort and Spa

The COAST Koh Samui - Adults Only Resort and Spa is a vibrant resort with a stylish contemporary look and a tranquil beachfront location that feels far removed from the island's buzzing tourist party hubs. The architecture employs a modern and minimalist look with wood accents and clean lines. The beachfront swimming pool and swim-up pool bar is where most of the hotel's guests congregate throughout the day and the vibe often feels like buzzing pool party, with the bar playing chill out music and serving a constant stream of cocktails. The hotel's adult-only policy, with a minimum age of 16, is another reason that this hotel is such a popular choice for couples.

The COAST Koh Samui - Adults Only Resort and Spa is located in Mae Nam, a sleepy tourist town on the Northern part of the island. The area offers a few simple restaurants and bars, but options are minimal and there is little for tourists to do apart from the beach within walking distance. Fisherman's Village (a 10-minute drive away), has much more on offer, with rows of local designer boutiques, cafes, and beachfront restaurants. The area especially comes to life on Fridays, when it hosts a colorful weekly bazaar and streets are crammed with stalls selling local Thai cuisine, clothing, knickknacks, and handicrafts. Chaweng Beach, the island's busiest tourism and party hub, is located a 20-minute drive from the hotel and features buzzing nightclubs and bars, a large shopping mall, and a great selection restaurants.
For those heading over to party at Koh Phangan or dive in the pristine waters of Koh Tao there are numerous boat transfer options, which leave from one of the four different piers that are dotted along Koh Samui. Maenam Pier is the closest to the hotel (a 10-minute drive away), and is also where the Lomprayah high speed catamarans depart from. Samui International Airport is about a 30-minute drive from the hotel.

The hotel features a variety of different rooms types, ranging from streamlined modern suites to luxe beachfront villas with private plunge pools. Villas and suites all feature ultra modern stylings and are bright and airy, with large opening glass doors that spill out onto balconies or terraces. Interiors are well put together, with a stylish contemporary look that mimics the public spaces. Expect parquet wood floors, sparsely decorated white walls, and a tan and beige color scheme. Rooms are outfitted with low-wooden platform beds with comfy mattresses, work tables and chairs, balcony furniture, and roomy wardrobes. Standard amenities include air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, telephones, safes, refrigerated minibars, coffee- and tea-making facilities, and free bottled water. Some room categories have kitchenettes outfitted with capsule espresso machines, microwaves, full-sized refrigerators, and sinks -- but no stovetop burners. The premier room category is the Beach Pool Villa. These villas feature direct beach access, unobstructed ocean views, and private plunge pools on decks furnished with bold red sun loungers and matching umbrellas. Fruit plates are a nice welcome treat.
Bathrooms are clean and spacious, with a sharp modern look that features slate gray tiling. The bathroom layout design is streamlined, with a long vanity countertop, a porcelain sink, a large mirror, and walk-in rainfall shower cubicles. Beach towels and toiletries are provided.

The COAST Koh Samui - Adults Only Resort and Spa offers a great range of facilities, though the hotel's biggest draw is the picturesque white-sand beach that it overlooks. The beach is lined with red lounge chairs and matching body beanbag chairs. There are also kayaks that guests can use free of charge. The hotel's prime facility is a large, beachfront swimming pool with a swim-up bar that serves drinks and snacks. The restaurant has ocean views and is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with a menu that includes a selection of classic Thai dishes and Western favorites. The breakfast buffet is a decent spread that includes both Asian and Western hot meals, cereals, fresh fruits, and baked goods. A rotating weekly schedule of events are held at the restaurant, including a traditional Thai buffet dinner with acoustic music, and a pool party featuring live DJ's, a barbecue buffet, and cocktail specials. In addition to the Beach Restaurant and poolside bar there is also an air-conditioned lounge and sports bar. The lounge is outfitted with comfy leather couches, a pool table, and a large flat-screen TV. It has an extensive drink menu that includes a great selection of imported and local beers, wines, and spirits.
Zense Spa is a clean and modern spa and salon with a range of different Thai and Western massage and beauty treatments. Adjacent to the spa is a well equipped fitness center and rooftop yoga deck. Guests can partake for free in the daily fitness, Muay Thai, or yoga classes. Free extras include Wi-Fi, return shuttles to Fisherman's Village and Chaweng Beach, and on-site parking. Tours, excursions, and vehicle rentals can be arranged through reception.
