The first property in Thailand launched under Spanish hotel group Meliá Hotels International, Melia Koh Samui takes peace and pampering to a whole new level. By Joanna Levitt

Located on Thailand’s stunning Choeng Mon Beach, the luxury beachfront resort of Meliá Koh Samui, a 159-room and 41-suite resort with a lagoon pool river and suites made from teak wood vessels, has opened on Thailand’s second largest island, Koh Samui.

The resort opened on January 10, 2019, unveiling two restaurants, an executive lounge, a swim-up bar, spa, fitness centre, ballroom and, for families, a kid’s club, outdoor playground and mini water park.

Fronting the sands of secluded Choeng Mon Beach, on the north-eastern tip of Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand, the nautical-themed luxury beachfront resort is located 15 minutes from Samui International Airport.

In addition to the remarkable 1600-square-metre lagoon pool, Meliá Koh Samui features a two-level infinity pool with in-water lounges, sunken seating areas and vistas of Choeng Mon Beach’s buttermilk sands and aquamarine waters.

Paying homage to Koh Samui’s heritage as a safe haven for sailors and sea traders, the resort has given merchant vessels, that are more than 100 years old, a new lease on life, converting them into elegant two-story boat suites sized 91 to 100 square metres. Each boat suite offers either sea views, garden views or direct pool access.

A standalone bathtub on a private balcony is a highlight of the resort’s 51 square metre deluxe rooms. The 58 square metre pool access rooms have private terraces that segue to the lagoon pool. The family suites, at 104 square metres, include sofas, a dining table and family games.

Rooms and suites that belong to ‘The Level’, an upgraded level of service and benefits, provide access to an executive lounge shaped like a boat’s hull. The Level Lounge boasts a vast open terrace, surrounded by a water feature, with panoramic views of Choeng Mon Beach.

Focused on contemporary Thai dishes as well as Western and Mediterranean cuisine, the Breeza Beach Restaurant and Bar’s outdoor terrace sits above Meliá Koh Samui’s strand. Signature dishes crafted by chef Azizskandar Awang, who’s won a string of awards including the prestigious Chef Hotelier of the Year award, include ‘Hokkaido scallop with chorizo, raisin salsa and ajo blanco’, as well as ‘Wagyu beef with black garlic, parsnip puree and port wine reduction’. The dishes are best savoured with wine, selected by the resort’s in-house sommelier from more than 160 labels.

The Koko Kitchen features a live-show kitchen, Boat's Bar is located in the semi-open lobby, and The Pool Bar, merged into the lagoon pool, serves cocktails and snacks including Spanish tapas.
