The Best Neighborhoods to Buy Property in Koh Samui (Part 2)

Who wouldn't want to indulge in a Thai island paradise filled with beaches, jaw-dropping panoramas, and natural resources galore? You can invest in such a destination property and rent it out or turn it into your very own vacation or retirement home.

Without further ado, here are six more of the best Koh Samui neighborhoods where you can acquire a high quality real estate investment (you may read our previous article to see the first eight neighborhoods you should consider here).

9) Thong Krut

Thong Krut village is located beside a serene shallow-water bay that’s around 26.5 kilometers southwest of Samui Airport, or just south of Koh Samui.

It is on one of the least developed (and therefore, most pristine) beaches on the island and it overlooks an archipelago where Moo Koh Ang Thong, the national marine park, is based. This neighborhood offers a variety of attractions and services, such as meditation and yoga classes, lovely temples, island-hopping adventures, monkey-operated coconut farms, peaceful beach (perfect for stargazing at night), paddleboarding along the coastline, and sipping great coffee in one of Samui's best coffee spots, The Beach Samui.

Exquisite 5 Bed Beachfront Villa in Thong Krut

Tranquil. Elegant. Simple. Secluded. These are the first words that come to mind when taking a stroll in our available Thong Krut beachfront property with two villas.

You'll be treated with panoramic views and modern minimalist living accommodations in a nice package. Its key features include its chanote title, freehold tenure, 625 square meters of building size, and 850 square meters of overall land size.

The property also includes landscaped manicured gardens, a fully fitted kitchen, its private beachfront area with a private swimming pool in case you wish to do some swimming in the privacy of your villa, 5 extravagant bedrooms, and 6 lavish bathrooms.

This open concept living space boasts a vaulted and spacious living quarters that you can access through a charming garden courtyard. It also includes a luxury kitchen with full fitment.

These newly completed two adjacent villas serve as freehold properties complete with high-end fittings when push comes to shove. This includes top-grade European timber mixed with Indian slate, Turkish travertine, and stone.

It even has the little things, such as a large staff room, 3-car covered parking, and storage space to safeguard your valuables.

The traditional village offers a pier that has long-tail boats available for chartering. They have fixed prices but when you approach the sellers with a smile you might get a hearty bargain out of it.

It prides itself with a décor full of rich natural tones and earthiness that works well with the white sand, the clean blue sea and skies, and the green palm trees.

Meanwhile, the glass doors offer you the picturesque view of the clean lawns or breathtaking ocean. Travel inside and see an expansive pool terrace that you can indulge into for outdoor entertainment purposes.

Although you can ensure your privacy in the pool, the beach itself is pretty secluded and relaxing to go to in case you wish to swim in the salty sea and the open ocean. It's the best way to enjoy the sense of freedom and relaxation you can get from tropical paradise.

10) Bangrak

Bangrak can be found between Choengmon and Bophut. You can go there for ferry and airport access to the wonderful Koh Pangan.

Bangrak currently has a less overtly touristy feel to it compared to other Koh Samui beaches and has more of a secluded island paradise look. This is actually a good thing for investors of villas there because of its untapped potential, easy access, and affordability.

Furthermore, it has a lovely beach reminiscent of those found in Bophut but better, since it has whiter and nicer sands. The fact that it's less touristy works to its benefit because it's more untouched and ripe for future development.

Bangrak luxury villa for sale:

Beachside 4 Bed Tropical Garden Villa in Bangrak

There’s an elegant Koh Samui villa residence in Bangrak at a spacious plot of manicured property that’s available for sale. Nestled in the middle of heaven-sent bliss comes a two-level main building with a façade full of grandeur and an interior that shows it doesn't have just a surface level but an unopened chest of treasures that awaits any lucky purchaser.

It measures over 1,200 square meters while the villa itself covers 400 square meters. It's a fully furnished property located close to the beach with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. This chanote title with freehold tenure also includes a fully fitted kitchen, an extra-big private swimming pool, and a large landscaped garden. It even has car parking available.

Like the Garden of Eden or the Elysian Fields, the villa has a youthful and new vigor to it that's both refreshing and rejuvenating at the same time. The property captures the essence of Bangrak Beach by being seemingly untouched by tourism. Not in the sense that it's underdeveloped—it's anything but—however, it's definitely immaculately groomed and presented.

You won't feel claustrophobic here at all due to its bright and spacious main lounge with high ceilings reminiscent of churches or mosques in its height. Everything has been prepared and tailor-made for the modern island lifestyle, from its plush seating and space to a full complement of appliances as well as a resort-style breakfast bar for good measure.

The whole place indeed exudes "photogenic" and "panoramic". The villa indeed is a gift that keeps on giving.

It's like it represents the future of Thailand tourism and land development with its pristine gardens, glorious white beach sands, and the bluest of waters perfect for photographing on National Geographic.

11) Lipa Noi

Lipa Noi itself has been described as one of Koh Samui's best-kept secrets. Why? It features many of the resources, features, and benefits of its more famous Koh Samui tourist spot counterparts while still remaining relatively unknown.

This neighborhood serves as an ideal beachfront destination for special escapades, clandestine getaways, or family holidays galore with its crystal clear waters, calming golden sunsets, and powdery sands.

Lipa Noi luxury villa for sale:

Beautiful 5 Bed Beachfront Villa for Sale in Lipa Noi

If you wish to get an elite safe haven seemingly sent from the heavens above with clarion calls from the angels themselves, then take a stroll in our grand villa in Lipa Noi.

It's the secret weapon of Koh Samui, found smack in the middle of its west coast while boasting of a curved crescent sandy beach.

The villa itself also features freehold and lease options as well. It's the kind of villa that represents the lackadaisical nature of the beachfront property it's situated in. Like Hawaii, you will feel relaxed and laidback in glorious yet serene Lipa Noi.

Feel the sway of the coconut palms as you relax in this private luxury villa that's been described as sumptuous and pristine.

Why would anyone describe a villa as sumptuous? Pristine is understandable but sumptuous is normally reserved for describing fruit or fine dining. It's because it isn't only luxurious but feature-rich and soul-filling as well.

It's a worthy investment of a villa filled with amenities and then some, starting with its 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. It's a mini luxury hotel already knowing that!

It's also quite spacious, covering 1,200 square meters overall and 800 square meters of building size. Seclusion is also no issue because it's located in the private part of Lipa Noi bay. It's almost like you have that part all to yourself at times.

It's also quite convenient because it's only 30 minutes away from the international airport, 10 minutes away from Nathorn piers and markets, and 5 minutes away from Raja ferry/speedboat pier as well as shops and restaurants.

It also offers a large oceanfront swimming pool and spa, powder-coated aluminum sliding doors, fully furnished and with high-level decorations, and 3 single-story pavilions with teak columns.

The best way to describe the villa and Lipa Noi itself would be glorious serenity. It's private and secluded so that's why it's so serene. However, it's also accessible and panoramic, thus showcasing its glorious side.

12) Laem Sor

What can be said about Laem Sor? It is Koh Samui's secluded hideaway. However, what makes it different from other secluded hideaways in Koh Samui or even Thailand in general?

It's a quiet island village that opened itself up to tourism yet still has an unexplored feel to it as a coastal retreat by design. The villagers there did their best to ensure its tranquility remains undisturbed along with the rest of its verdant tropical surroundings.

They made it mostly accessible to urban sites while the villagers maintained their simple way of life even as they made a living with tourism as well.

Laem Sor luxury villa for sale:

Contemporary 6 Bedroom Beach Front Villa in Laem Sor

How about the Laem Sor luxury villa? What's the story behind it? It's a contemporary 6-bedroom beachfront villa that's also a fully managed estate ready for sale at a reduced price.

It offers a slice or a taste of Southeast Asian culture with its contemporary Balinese design that features an open-plan living/dining design to boot.

It's quite the investment bargain when you take into account that it is a 6-bedroom and 7-bathroom property that showcases the most scenic views of Koh Tan island. Picturesque is an understatement.

Also, have you heard of the infinity pool? Its 21-meter infinity-edge pool stretches over the horizon like the sea, thus making it seem like you have the sea as your limitless pool that cuts through the gorgeous panorama.

Your children can also indulge in the 7-meter shaded children's swimming pool that comes with the property. It's perfectly sized for them to play in.

Space won't be a problem here as well. Not only is this a 1,200 square meter property with a building size of 352.5 square meters. It also comes complete with high-vaulted wooden ceilings worthy of a high-end hotel lobby.

The more affordable property also has established high rental returns for anyone wishing to rent this out as a landlord or establish a timeshare.

The main appeal of this new contemporary luxury beachfront villa though is its serenity and peacefulness. If you wish to own or live inside an untouched paradise fit for a king that exudes provincial calm in the face of the chaos of the modern world, then this is it.

13) Taling Ngam

The main claim to fame of Taling Ngam? Scenic views of the isles, the best sunsets this side of Koh Samui, and untouched nature.

In a nation where even dentistry and drug rehab are used to entice tourism, it's refreshing to visit the handful of secluded beaches that haven't been developed for tourism yet. It has loads of promise and a worthwhile investment for the future.

It has untapped potential awaiting tourism fulfillment and huge returns down the line for early investors of this undeveloped land.

Taling Ngam luxury villa for sale:

Unique Headland 4 Bed Villa on Taling Ngam Beach

What has been developed as far as the unique luxury beachfront villa is concerned includes a land size of 2,340 square meters and a building size of 600 square meters. It's unique insofar as it's a "turn-key" luxury villa for use or rent.

It's a sea-view luxury pool villa with 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms with parking at an affordable sales price. It's expansive rather than expensive.

It also comes with offerings you won't see on other villas, such as a split-level stylish mezzanine living room, an outdoor living/pool sala, couch, and chairs, and exceptional level furnishing worthy of a high-grade luxury resort.

Other things that make this place unique is its lived experience when it comes to fully furnished all-inclusive tropical or resort living.

In other words, this villa comes complete with a home entertainment satellite system for your viewing pleasure, high-speed Wi-Fi in case you're more into streaming videos nowadays, and a recreation room/entertainment area.

Here, you can play sporty games, board games, or videogames at your heart's desire. If you wish for more cerebral relaxation, you can head over to the study area instead with a sofa and desk included.

Most interested parties who wish to bid on this property also favor its fully functional CCTV camera system for security purposes. It allows them to keep tabs on what's going on in the villa even when they're away.

The area where the villa is located is also a private and highly exclusive area though. The CCTV camera system is there for an extra measure of security on the already gated beachfront community.

14) Laem Set

Last but not least (for this installment of this article series, at least) is Laem Set.

Laem Set is a deserted beach where only hotel guests or few other tourists could be seen. Therefore, if you wish to go to a less populated beach with assured resort-level resource richness and development, Laem Set is the best of both worlds.

Laem Set luxury villa for sale:

Tropical Thai-Inspired 5 Bed Luxury Villa in Laem Set

This exclusive residential Laem Set estate's key features include 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms overall, fully fitted kitchen and fixtures, outdoor dining and lounge area, and—get this—your own private waterfall.

Instead of investing in a fountain and its maintenance, why not purchase a Thai-inspired villa with its own waterfall? It's like you've rented or invested into your own temple or Thai home indeed. It's both tropical and Thai-inspired!

Laem Set's lack of infrastructure might make some hesitate to purchase the villa, but for those with entrepreneurial spirit, they surely see the potential from this untouched land.

The chanote title villa for freehold tenure has a property size of 2,171 square meters and a building size of 600 square meters. It also has 2 levels and 4 buildings occupying the property overall.

Many others love the area for its true seclusion and peacefulness. It's a worthwhile purchase for those who wish to connect more to nature.

Everywhere you look, you'll see lush surroundings and ocean views on top of a main building flanked by two detached pavilions linked by stone pathways through tropical landscapes.

Connect more with nature, the land, and the culture of Thailand thanks to the villa's more tropical landscaped garden with touches of Southeast Asian decoration, high-vaulted ceilings worthy of a resort lobby, and a 12-meter infinity pool.

As mentioned before, unlike ordinary pools, an infinity pool stretches across the horizon like the sea itself. Stretching towards forever towards the future, showcasing Laem Set's own infinite future.

Instead of going for western or minimalist interior décor that sticks out like a sore thumb, why not immerse yourself in the Contemporary Asian design style of Thailand itself? You'll become one with not only nature but also with Thai culture itself.

When in Rome, do what the Romans do, right? So when in Thailand, immerse yourself in the Land of Smiles. You might love it when push comes to shove.
