If you’re looking for a romantic and stunning escape with luxury “White Lotus” vibes, Conrad Koh Samui is the ultimate destination. Built on a cliff on the island’s west coast, the resort offers cinematic panoramic views of the ocean and the iconic Five Islands, something you can enjoy from everywhere in the resort, whether you’re floating in your private infinity pool, dining at the restaurants, or simply walking around the resort.
The sunsets here are absolutely magical. Unlike most resorts in Koh Samui that face east, Conrad’s unique location on the west lets you enjoy golden hour right from your villa or the poolside, with colors melting into the sea every evening. The design throughout the resort gives off White Lotus vibes: elegant, serene, and truly immersive.
Our villa was massive, with a huge infinity pool and terrace, beautifully designed, incredibly private and well maintained. Waking up to those endless views from the bed or the bathtub is an experience in itself. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide range of fresh and delicious options, and the service throughout our stay was genuinely warm and attentive.
We also loved the unique beach walk area - lined with statues, tucked-away corners, and little romantic spots that feel like your own secret hideout. It’s not just a beach, it’s a whole experience.
The only downside is that the resort is quite isolated (which is part of its charm), so you’ll likely have all your meals onsite. While the food is good, the prices for lunch and dinner were expensive (relative to Koh Samui) - even compared to other luxury resorts on the island we’ve been to like the Four Seasons and Banyan Tree. For such food price, we expected something more exceptional.
Still, for those seeking tranquility, privacy, and a romantic luxury escape with breathtaking views, Conrad Koh Samui is a standout. We left feeling recharged and in awe of the natural beauty surrounding us.
