Overlooking the sea on Bang Po Beach in the north of Samui, The Sea Koh Samui (077-960-567, www.theseasamui.com) is an untapped oasis, with suites and villas featuring a tropical, modern design. Its latest promotion that runs until Mar 31 starts from B5,250. And if you book three consecutive nights here, you’ll get one complimentary night at the Sawaddi Patong Resort in Phuket. Reservations must be made through its website to get the deal. If you do go, The Sea is close to Janhom seafood restaurant, which we highly recommend.
