    » Ban Amphoe, an up-and-coming beach destination south of Pattaya and Jomtien, reminds many people of what its famous neighbours used to be like decades ago. This boutique hotel in the area is popular among Thai holidaymakers, thanks partly to its modern design and good value for money. It offers Deluxe rooms (35m²) and Corner Suites (55m²). From some of the units, despite the fact that the property is about 150m from the beach, you can get a distant view of the sea.

    Banyan Tree Samui

    Life, Pongpet Mekloy, Published on 01/10/2020

    » Over the past several months on Koh Samui peacefulness has prevailed, so much so that for the first time in six years green sea turtles came to lay eggs on the island.
