Location and the beach
Directly on Bangrak Beach, also known as Big Buddha Beach, on the quieter north coast of Koh Samui.

The beach and the setting
The resort fronts Bangrak Beach directly and has its own private beach area. This part of Samui's north coast is calmer in character than the main Chaweng strip, and the beachfront position means sand is immediately accessible from the property.
Bangrak is also known as Big Buddha Beach, after the Big Buddha temple nearby.
Is it right for you?
A beachfront stay on Bangrak with direct sand access, simple room options and free parking — suited to couples or families who want a quieter base than Chaweng.
