Thanks to the growing number of amenities on the island many more buyers are thinking about moving here. And many of these are interested in family-friendly homes for sale in Koh Samui. It makes sense as Samui offers plenty when it comes to family life. There are new schools and kindergartens, with more likely to open up in the future. Samui also boasts more healthcare than most small islands are able to: a half dozen hospitals offer a very good range of services and, of course, there is every kind of specialist hospital just an hour’s flight away in Bangkok. For those who are interested in healthcare, Thailand is offering an enviable range of procedures and at a much smaller cost than in most western countries.
Koh Samui is also a wonderful year-round destination for those who like the sun. Cooling sea breezes mean that it never become punishingly hot here. And the rainy season is relatively short, and is usually gone within six weeks or less. The rest of the year sees sun, with relatively little rain and infrequent storms. It’s ideal as a spot to live in, and thanks to Bangkok’s transport hub, it’s a cinch to get anywhere in south-east Asia.
When it comes to shopping, the island is well supplied. And the same goes for food shopping; there’s little that cannot be found on Koh Samui; the island has a number of malls that offer most foodstuffs and products. Luxury and hard-to-find foods can also be sourced from specialist suppliers on the island or from the island’s delicatessen supermarket, Tops, to be found in Central Samui’s open-air mall.

When it comes to the different areas of Koh Samui, Chaweng is the most populous. Although this large town isn’t the island’s capital, it’s the busiest area and has most of the shops, malls, restaurants and nightlife. It’s close to the airport, too. Many expatriates live in Chaweng Noi, just to the south of the town, while others prefer the hills that directly overlook Chaweng. In the town itself, there are many townhouses to be found as well as apartments. For those who seek less populated areas, we would recommend the towns of Maenam, Bophut, Ban Tai or Bangpor. And there are quieter locales still; these are to be found south of the island’s capital, Nathon.
