The ultimate holiday wish. It's easy to dismiss the island of Ko Samui as a gigantic country club floating in the Gulf of Thailand. And it does present this impression with its enormous golf courses. Look closer, however, and you'll see more than a little of Thailand's wonderful culture exists here. Street food vendors set up shop along narrow roadsides, ready to serve your every dream. Sacred Buddhist temples and backpacker shanties sit side by side, overlooking a quiet stretch of sand. 2am jetsetter parties keep the action going late into the night. But where Ko Samui really excels is in its role as a holiday genie, continually granting whatever holiday wish you may have. Fancy a back massage on the beach? No problem. Fancy a fiesta? Party like a rockstar in one of the popular clubs. Very much a choose-your-own-adventure type of place, you certainly won't get bored during your time here.
