Koh Samui is one of the best places to emigrate to if you are looking for an idyllic tropical lifestyle. The island, in the Gulf of Siam, enjoys year-round sunshine (with the exception of a short-lived rainy season) and it never gets too hot thanks to cooling sea breezes. Ideal for those who enjoy an outdoor life, especially when it comes to swimming, Samui is a world-class holiday destination and attracts not just vacationers but those who want to live here full-time.
Much more than a hammock-and-sandals spot in the sun, Koh Samui isn’t just about the laidback beauty of its beaches. Over the years it has become a fully-fledged retail center and is as cosmopolitan as a large city. With its supermarkets, shops and malls, the island is a destination where you can now find anything and everything. It also boasts a very fine dining scene and in addition there is all the nightlife that the island is so famed for.
It’s definitely not just a simple holiday destination where visitors soon start to hanker for the comforts of back home. Because of this, it’s hardly surprising that so many people want to spend more than a few days or weeks on the island and instead wish to emigrate here. It has everything that one could want.

This means that all apartments are to be found in low-rise buildings, which in turn promotes low-density housing.
