Four Seasons Koh Samui, Koh Samui
Curling around a private peninsula on the serene northeast coast of Koh Samui, the Four Seasons offers all you could want for a grown-up beach break. Thatched-roof villas percolate down the hillside, some peering into the Gulf of Thailand, some rolling straight onto the beach, all decked out in breezy ivories and teals, with dark wooden shutters, netted beds and egg-shaped bathtubs. Plonk yourself on a stripy daybed by the oceanfront infinity pool and allow attendants to deliver lemongrass-infused cold towels and skewers of pineapple, or at the spa, where treatments incorporate healing herbs plucked from the garden. The more energetic can hire yachts, take up Muay Thai boxing or plant coral babies. Everyone should regroup at the Rum Vault for a tiki-lit tasting as the sun goes down. LC
