Modern cozy 1-bedroom near samui airport

The property is a 44 m² home with one bedroom, a Queen bed and a private bathroom with a shower, a hair dryer and toiletries. It sleeps up to two guests.

The living space has a flat-screen TV with satellite and cable channels, an electric kettle and cleaning products, and the kitchen has cookware, oils and condiments for guests who want to cook.

The kitchen is at the centre of the facilities: basic cookware, oils and condiments, dishes and dining utensils, a microwave and a refrigerator, with coffee or tea also available, so the kitchen basics are ready for use on arrival. Air conditioning, linens, towels, a hair dryer, an iron and a TV with cable channels are offered as well, and the home is cleaned by a professional cleaning company.

Practical extras include keyless access, a buzzer or wireless intercom, a laundromat nearby for washing clothes and a desk with workspace. Free parking is on site, pets are allowed, and internet access is available. The kitchen, the microwave and the refrigerator are all in the home for guests who prefer cooking their own meals.

The home is in Choengmon, a residential stretch of Koh Samui next to Samui Airport, 500 m away. The area is residential, with the everyday life of a Koh Samui neighbourhood around the home. It is a practical base rather than a resort beach right outside, with local shops, pharmacies and a hospital close by. The island's temples and beaches are all reached by road.

Nora Beach is the closest beach, 1.2 km away, and Chaweng Yai Beach is 2.5 km off. Both beaches are reached by road, and the temples are visited as day trips from the home. Two of the island's best-known sights are Wat Plai Laem, a Buddhist temple, at 2.3 km and the large Big Buddha statue at 2.4 km. The Samui Elephant Sanctuary in Bophut is another visit, and the Walking Street and the Night Market are both nearby.

A good day could start at the Big Buddha, continue at Nora Beach and end at the Night Market. Bangrak Pier is also close by, for ferry crossings to the other islands. Guests who want to combine the beaches with the temples can plan the route by road, since the sights are spread around the island.
