The tropical island of Samui is sheltered within the gulf of Siam off the South Eastern coast of Thailand . Along with Phuket and Pattaya, it has established international recognition over the past few years as a high end destination for both tourist and businessman and the discerning traveler alike. Bangkok Airways covering domestic and international routes throughout the region, is in the process of expanding their airport facilities to meet the ever increasing number of arrivals. A new pier has been operational giving convenient access not only to the national ferries from the main land but also to visitors from larger cruise ships from Singapore and Bangkok.

The vibrant property market has developed at a rapid rate over recent years and is now termed by the local media as "Booming". Koh Samui now offers an extensive range of "real estate in paradise" opportunities for retirement homes, holiday retreats and exclusive private residences that offer both a wonderful tropical lifestyle as well as attractive investment returns.
