Overview
 Samui
offers the kind of holiday which doesn't require lots of planning.
You don't need transport, because everything is close at hand,
You don't need extensive facilities because you can find most
of what you need close by. The main island road runs in a circular
route parallel to the beach, which means most of the accommodation
and quite a few restaurants are literally on the beach. No changes
of clothes, you don't need to put on your shoes, or an organised
kid's club because its all here, around the beach.
Samui offers safe swimming around most beaches, watersports at
the main beaches of Chaweng and Lamai, and for parents, the chance
to relax with a local massage under the shade of a tree while
the kids play in the sand. Here are a few resorts which have facilities
for those days away from the beach.
Paradise Beach Resort -
Chaweng
Good for water babies, whatever their age. The Paradise Beach
Resort has a wide range of water sports and activities. Sailing
on Hobie cats, windsurfing, water-skiing from the beach, and scuba-diving
courses at the PADI-certified dive centre are all available. Deep-sea
fishing, island-hopping tours to Koh Phang-Gan, Koh Tao or the
Ang Thong Marine Park, can be arranged from our tour desk. Two
freshwater swimming pools and a Jacuzzi grace the lush tropical
gardens. There's also a well equipped children's playground.
Jungle Park Resort - Lamai
This small resort (24 bungalows) really does make you feel you're
in the tropics! Simple but comfortable beach bungalows each with
a large balcony, surrounded by an extensive tropical garden. The
50 metre long river and two waterfalls winding through the garden
complete with resident parrots, make you feel like you're really
living in the middle of the jungle! Great for families with small
kids who just want to relax and enjoy. Pool with kid's section
and free towels, and a massage area for Mum!
