Fun in the Sun on Koh Samui

The Amari Hotel on Koh Samui is situated on Chaweng Beach, an endless stretch of tropical beach with white powdery sand, clear blue sea and coconut palms. Thanks to a coral reef barrier, which also provides good snorkeling opportunities, water ski boats and jet skis cannot enter this area and guests at the Amari are undisturbed by noisy, speeding water craft.

The hotel neighborhood is characterized by fashion boutiques, souvenir and art shops. Chaweng nightlife and entertainment hot spots are within walking distance but outside the acoustic range.

The Amari Palm Reef Resort offers spacious and comfortable accommodation with an atmosphere of leisurely up-market elegance.
