Paradise Samui Villa is on Koh Samui, the island in the Gulf of Thailand, in the Bophut area. Samui Airport (USM) is 2.5 km away on the island itself, so the trip ends without a boat. Bophut has the feel of an old fishing village, and its Fisherman's Village Bophut Walking Street gathers shops and restaurants in one place.

Several places worth a visit are close by. Wat Chaweng, a Buddhist pagoda, is 650 m away, and the Samui Elephant Sanctuary Bophut, which cares for elephants, is also nearby. The Big Buddha, a large seated statue, is 4.2 km away, and Chaweng Yai Beach is 2.4 km away, a sandy beach on the island. Thai International Hospital is 250 m away. Car hire, bicycle rental and a taxi service are offered by the property, so getting around the island is straightforward.

A good day could start at the Big Buddha and the Wat Chaweng pagoda, then move on to the Night Market for food and stalls in the evening, or to Chaweng Yai Beach for a swim. The Samui Elephant Sanctuary Bophut can be combined with a visit to Bophut itself, which is in the same area. Both the Night Market and the Big Buddha are on Koh Samui, so a full day out can stay on the island.
