Come experience paradise at the Gulf of Thailand's idyllic island escape, W Koh Samui. At W Retreat Koh Samui, living an "un-" life is what vacation is all about: unspoiled beauty, an unhurried pace, and a serenely uncrowded location, the W is Thailand's premier vacation destination where the only thing you have to do is unwind. Just take a look at the stunning grounds; every detail promotes relaxation. The comfortable rooms, designed and brought to life by award-winning visionary Carl Almeida, have names like Jungle Oasis and Extreme WOW Ocean Haven, names that capture the beauty and tranquility of the tropical paradise that is Koh Samui. Adorned with amenities that can only be described as chic and contemporary—a Yamaha Sound System and 22" Samsung LCD TV in the bathroom!—your living space at W Retreat will make you feel positively regal. Just bask in the opulence of it all, from the indulgent outdoor rain shower to the heavenly Bliss Spa bath products.

Our family had a magnificent time at the W in Koh Samui. Definitely wasn’t long enough, but we felt amazing for 3 days there! The staff were delightful, my massage was sublime and the food, beach, pool fire show, and hospitality was 100% every day! Loved it, kids wanted to stay longer!! Thank you for making it such a wonderful trip.

From the minute you arrive at the W Retreat Koh Samui you are met with the Wow factor. The view from the lobby is absolutely breathtaking!! The pool villas were modern, beautifully decorated & very private and had direct access to the beach. Staff were very friendly & attentive. Had the most incredible meal at Namu. Thank you to the amazing chefs who just created something special for me based on what I felt like - no menu required.

This is definitely a resort with wow factors in many ways. Besides the breathtaking view of Gulf of Thailand and the Maenam Beach, the staffs left me a nice impression as well, General Manager Nick himself gave us a personal tour introduction at the beginning which led to a wonderful stay for us at W Retreat Koh Samui. Worth coming again and again!
