Fair House Villas and Spa Samui

The villas and suites at Fair House Villas and Spa Samui vary in size, from a 52 m² sea-view garden villa to 280 m² two-bedroom villas. Some rooms look out over the sea, the pool or the garden, and the Ocean Suite has a partial ocean view.

Depending on the room, the bedrooms have air conditioning, a private bathroom with a bathtub or a shower, a hair dryer, bathrobes and an electric kettle, and some have a balcony or terrace, a refrigerator or a coffee and tea maker. Villas with two bedrooms accommodate up to seven guests. The Sunset Suite and the Sea View Garden Villa both have a sea view, and the Pool Villa looks out over the pool.

The grounds include outdoor and indoor swimming pools, a spa with spa and sauna facilities, a hot tub and massage treatments. The hotel has a private beach, and non-motorised water sports are available. Both swimming pools, the spa and the hot tub are open to guests, so a day can be spent without leaving the resort.

Dining covers restaurants, a poolside bar and 24-hour room service, with breakfast offered in Asian, buffet and continental styles.

Practical services include a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, daily housekeeping, laundry service, a concierge, car hire, a taxi service and a shuttle service. Free parking on site is available, and free WiFi is available in all rooms.

Mae Nam is a stretch of Koh Samui's Gulf of Thailand coast, where beach life sits alongside village lanes and smaller resorts. The hotel has gardens and a private beach, and the island's busier areas are reachable by road from here.

Bo Phut Beach is 250 m away on foot, and Fisherman's Village, a walking street of shops and restaurants in Bo Phut, is 2.2 km away. Big Buddha, a large Buddha statue on a hilltop, is 4.8 km away, while Wat Plai Laem, a temple with a large Guanyin statue on a lake, is 5.6 km away. Samui Airport is 5.8 km away, and the hotel offers an airport transfer. Lamai Beach, a long sandy stretch further down the coast, and Na Muang Waterfall in the forested interior show the range of the island.

A good day could start with a walk along Bo Phut Beach, continue to Big Buddha for the views over the sea, and end at Fisherman's Village for dinner. Car hire is available at the hotel for trips further across the island. Back at the resort, the two swimming pools and the spa offer a quiet end to the afternoon, after a day out on the island.
