Garrya Tongsai Bay

Koh-samui $$$ 4.7

Eco-luxury resort on a private 28-acre headland where no trees were felled during construction.

About this Place

Garrya Tongsai Bay occupies 28 acres of unspoiled tropical headland on Samui's northeast coast, and the resort's commitment to its natural environment sets it apart. No trees were felled during construction — instead, suites and cottages were built around the existing coconut palms and tropical hardwoods, creating accommodations that feel embedded in the landscape rather than imposed upon it. The private bay offers calm, clear waters ideal for swimming and kayaking, while nature trails through the property reveal monitor lizards, exotic birds, and century-old trees. The hilltop restaurant serves refined Thai cuisine with views across the bay to Koh Phangan. A recent transformation under the Garrya brand has added contemporary wellness programs without sacrificing the resort's famously unhurried character. This is the Samui that existed before the boom — peaceful, lush, and profoundly relaxing.
