    A lot of tourists but that make sense. The beach is gorgeous and so is the water. There are people selling things but you can avoid them

    Central Festival Samui is a good place to visit for shopping as it seems to have a bit of everything. There are normal shops, with some big names like H&M, but also market stalls both within and outside the building. As well, there is a decent sized TOPS supermarket where we found the staff really helpful.

    There are plenty of places to eat, both formal restaurants and from market stalls where a wide range of food was available from sushi to kebabs.

    Visiting in the evening, we found the place really lively.

    We enjoyed our visit.

    It was VERY hot in the evening. They sell drinks - take advantage of this. You can go 'vip' or cheap seats - we were in the cheap ones as we wanted the full experience and it was fine. Its an insight into the culture .

    If you are thinking about a cooking class on Samui this is the one! It was a wonderful experience with an amazing chef and gardener. Chef Lat was so enthusiastic about Thai cooking and teaching us how to cook from scratch. I loved every minute of it & have been using the recipe’s provided to continue learning the craft of Thai Cooking.

    I've had a home on Samui for over fifteen years and never made it to a ladyboy show. What a waste of fifteen years! Well not quite :-). But I truly think it is a great way to start a fun night out in Chaweng. There are three shows 20.30, 21.30 or 22.30 and all are different. Once you're in you can pick to stay for all of them if you wish - we enjoyed two. It is an up close caberet so you can really see how lovely they are. It's not the slickest experience but all the better for that. I was surprised how much I enjoyed it. And it is a hop, trip and stagger to Ark Bar so you can party the night way afterwards.

    Karn is a wonderful masseuse and also extremely knowledgeable about reiki, oil massage and holistic wellbeing. His shirodhara massage made a huge difference to my tired mind and body. He is also extremely kind and attentive and I highly recommend him if you are ever in Anantara Spa, Koh Samui.

    Paul was simply amazing. We had many suits made for a wedding and he still managed to treat each groomsman and family member as if they were his only customer.

    He WhatsApp called and got our measurements before hand and when we arrived in Thailand we did our final measurements which were not even off.

    He was kind and considerate at all times and even helped my sister adjust her one wedding outfit.

    Brilliant service and attention to detail goes a long way in my books and I recommend Paul and his team for their professionalism and the kindness that he extended our way!

    Went in to discuss a suit. There was no high pressure selling, just a relaxed conversation as to material options and prices, and then styles. Within a day, I had a first fit and to check any changes I wanted and then 2 days later a final fit for any slight variations and to ensure suit was a good fit. There was a minor alteration to a button position to be done and I picked up the suit complete the following day for the agreed price.
    The owner is a charming gentleman who dealt with the whole process in a professional and friendly way. I had time from when I had my first meeting and I suspect that if I did not the whole process could be completed more quickly.
    It was a real pleasure to use this business and have a really nice suit made to measure at a very sensible price.
    I would definitely go there again and recommend it highly.

    While the immediate surroundings of the lake are beautiful (very European), the businesses around the lake itself -- go carts, bungee jumping, reggae bars, drinking bars have all seen better days. Lots of people jogging and the Warehouse is a great coffee stop while walking around the lake.

    We got the couples honeymoon package and it was the most relaxing experience we've both ever had. The staff were very professional and attentive with the body scrub and the massage. We were so relaxed we both fell asleep during our facial! The whole experience was wonderful and to top it off with the views of the beach and island that you can only get from the spa made it even more special. The whole experience didn't feel rushed and we felt very special throughout. Would definitely recommend if you feel like pampering yourself.
