Anantara Koh Samui has become known as Anantara Bophut, Koh Samui as a result of Anantara Hotels, Resorts & Spas’ expansion from one resort to two on this exquisite tropical island. 

Anantara’s first island hideaway, now known as Anantara Bophut, Koh Samui, opened in November 2004.  The boutique style hideaway bestows guests with a choice of 106 rooms and suites, all boasting enviable views; some over azure waters and white sands of Bophut Bay towards the island of Koh Phangan and others over the lush tropical gardens designed by internationally renowned architect Bill Bensley. The sophisticated allure of exotic island life is enhanced by a dramatic 30-metre infinity-edge pool overlooking the beach, alongside the much coveted Anantara Spa with private pavilion treatment suites. Set on 11 acres of beachfront next to the laid-back haven of Fisherman’s Village on the north coast of Samui, Anantara Bophut is less than a 10 minute drive from the airport; a convenience that is matched by its new sister resort.

Anantara’s newest family member to reside on Samui’s fabled shores is Anantara Lawana, Koh Samui.  Welcoming its first guests in November 2009, this beautiful resort is inspired by the island’s Chinese merchant heritage and occupies a secluded and pristine stretch of sand along Samui’s famously long North Chaweng Beach. A choice of 122 rooms, suites and clusters of villas sharing exclusive pools, are joined by a second Anantara Spa and unique fine dining experiences, while the vibrant buzz of Chaweng is only a stone’s throw away.
