Koh Samui Hotel at Tongsai Beach: Tongsai Bay Cottages & Hotel

“At The Tongsai Bay…We emphasise on the outdoor living”

All 83 rooms in a vast area of 25 acres of land, surrounded by tropical nature, offer sea view with 4 main types of accommodation namely Beachfront Suites, Cottages Suites, Tongsai Grand Villas and Tongsai Pool Villas.

24 Beachfront Suites are in a 3-storeyed building next to the beach and pools. All have a secluded bathtub, 2 sun loungers, a dining and writing table and full fronted sea views. 8 Suites on the ground floor are suitable for families in a way that each has a direct access from the balcony to the beach and pools and its overall size is as large as 86 m2 divided into 36 m2 balcony, 44 m2 air-conditioned area and 6 m2 backyard as opposed to the upper floor suites which are only 72 m2.

Due to larger area and ground location, Beachfront Suites on the ground floor can accommodate 2 adults
and 2 children under 12 and are more suitable for families.

41 cottages are dotted around the hill leading down to Tongsai’s private beach. They are well hidden by the existing trees which only a few of them were cut down when we first built the cottages. All Cottage Suites offer sea view from their terraces but because there’re lots of trees, the view can be partial or at an angle. Being situated on a different location, each cottage has individual characters, the variation in shape, size and angles of scenery. The standard sizes of cottages are 68-78 m2 and can only take 3 people maximum.

These 9 Tongsai Grand Villas and 2 other special villas were open for business in December 1998. They are on the hillside on the right-hand side of The Tongsai Bay, opposite to where Cottage and Beachfront Suites stand. They are created in compliance with our philosophy to encourage guests to go back to nature wherever and whenever possible.

Undergone the renovation in December 2005, each of the 9 villas now has a total area of 170 m2 with an open-air area of 116 m2 on the terrace and the back of each Villa and 54 m2 of air-conditioned bedroom area. The unique outdoor terrace features a bathtub for bathing alfresco, a gazebo where guests can sleep outside if they wish (the hotel provides mosquito nets) and a small pantry-bar area, a dining table and sun loungers.

4 Tongsai Pool Villas (185 m2) are the most recent type of accommodation, added in December 2003 and completed its refurbishment in December 2005. They are in the same area as Tongsai Grand Villas, offering the same facilities as Grand Villa as well as its own private plunge pool of 3x5 metres.
