Description
Located on the northernmost tip of Koh Samui on a gently sloping headland, the Six Senses Samui offers stunning views of the surrounding ocean from a tranquil and elegant base. The sixty-six villas are located among 20 acres of natural vegetation around a gently sloping headland, providing unsurpassed panoramic views.
All of Six Senses Samui's villas are split-level and have an open-style bathroom, enhancing the space and natural light and opening up views from almost every point in the villa. Infinity edge private swimming pools in most of the villas blend into the horizon and help maintain a feeling of seclusion, even though all of the Six Senses Samui's facilities are close at hand and are complemented by pool villa butlers.
Six Senses Samui serves some of the best food on the island and uses the freshest vegetables, herbs and organic greens from its own gardens. Dining on the Rocks offers 270 degree views from its headland position and Dining on the Hill offers equally lovely views from its terrace. In addition to the restaurants and the fantastic in villa dining available, Six Senses Samui also offers a host of sporting, cultural and pampering options from extensive watersports to alfresco spa treatments to cookery lessons and weekly movies under the stars.
