Villa Liu sits in Nathon, the main town on Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand. It is a town area with shops, clinics and ferry piers rather than a stretch of beach, so the everyday services of the island are close at hand. The beaches lie further around the coast, and the nearest one on the list is Maenam Beach, 7.6 km away.

The Coconut Museum is 350 m away, and Wat Khongkharam, a temple, is 850 m away. Nathon Pier, the ferry terminal, is 1.7 km away, and Samui Airport is 13.1 km away. Further afield, the Hin Lat waterfall and the Samui Monkey Center make good day outings.

A day on the island can combine the temple and museum near the villa with a drive to the waterfalls or the monkey centre, and the Big Buddha statue is a well-known landmark further away. The island's main sights are spread out, so a scooter or a car helps for trips of this kind. Because Koh Samui is an island, the link to the mainland is by ferry or air, and most sights are reached by road, so a scooter or a car is the simplest way to explore.
