Fodor's Expert Review Anantara Bophut Resort and Spa
99/9 Bophut Bay, Koh Samui, Surat Thani, 84320, Thailand
Anantara captures the essence of Samui: coconut trees dot the grounds, monkey statues and sculptures decorate the interior, and, of course, there's a beautiful beach. All rooms have ocean views from their large patios and are designed in a modern Lanna style. Each also has a tank with several colorful Thai fighting fish. You'll feel like a rock star performing on stage when dining at the Full Moon—the dining room is a large open platform beside the swimming pool. The Eclipse Thai restaurant allows you to interact with your chef, who is working near your table and will alter any dish to your specifications. Booking a treatment at the stylish spa is a must.
