Koh Samui Airport - A Stopover with a Difference

Koh Samui Airport in Thailand is acclaimed as one of the few airports in the world

which combines modern facilities with an appearance and ambience that blends in with its tropical island surroundings.

The airplane passenger flying in will see the pristine islands of the area amidst the deep blue ocean, quaint fishing vessels and, as you come closer still, picturesque sections of coral reef delight the eye. Koh Samui, a true tropical haven with scores of bays with powder-soft white sand, scenic groves of coconut palms and lush forested hills, is an inviting sight.

Formerly an idyllic location featuring thatched roof buildings amidst coconut palms, the airport has now been equipped with a modern terminal building, but still projects its characteristic tropical island charm. The airport now includes a shopping arcade and a discernible emphasis on customer service, but retains the striking gardens and palms which made it a delightful place to visit.

The visitor always feels the charm of Koh Samui upon landing, often being welcomed with a garland of orchids. The vividly hued flora, live music adjacent to the shopping area and a play area for children makes the airport is one of the most hospitable in the world.

When visiting Koh Samui Airport the traveller should make it a point to take in the shopping opportunities at the Park Avenue arcade, which caters primarily to the upscale customer. The visitor will find opulent boutiques, a cigar outlet, cafes, a Bookazine store, a Jim Thompson silk store, a health and skin care store, a pizzeria and a pub among other outlets.

The visitor should also drop in at the Recycled' outlet store which offers sensational Predator and Alien style monsters fashioned from motorcycle and automobile parts.

When considering Koh Samui resorts, the obvious choice is the Langham Place Samui at Lamai Beach, an exceptional luxury resort Koh Samui proudly calls its own, just 20 minutes from Koh Samui airport. With secluded villas, a range of dining concepts, attentive service and an array of amenities, there is no doubt that this is a first class resort hotel.
