Teasing sparkling sea views over Choeng Mon Beach, Kimpton Kitalay Samui channels the island’s tropical charm with 138 rooms, suites and villas. In this village-like island enclave, we invite you to embrace the spirit of a community inspired by the sea. Feel revitalized by five bold and inventive restaurants and bars, a spa influenced by Thai wellness with a welcomed modern twist, and our relaxing, palm-shaded pools. Explore the island on a fat-tire bicycle, and listen to island lore in the Lanai Coves. After all, Kita means ‘song’ in Thai, and lay is a reference to the seafaring Chao Lay people of Thailand. Together, Kitalay conveys the meaning of ‘the song of the Lay people’ – a tribute to the community spirit native to the milieu. It is this easy balance of nonchalance and detail that we call island living, the Kimpton Kitalay Samui way.

Aon (who massaged my wife) was gentle and Pui was excellent - putting pressure on the right places. At the end, Pui showed me some exercises. Truly excellent service from both of them. Highly recommended 😊

Private Beach Villa. Outstanding service and food. VERY FAST on every request I had. The grounds are impeccable and everything was top notch... I never used the general population pool but it always looked busy so I highly recommend the private beach villas (DEFINITELY worth the extra money) On a side note, while most hotels in Asia do all they can to be accommodating, my personal concierge Moss went above and beyond on everything, ensuring I was taken care of (including offers of arranging my breakfasts even on his days off 😳) 10/10 on Mr Moss!

A most wonderful stay at the Kimpton Kitalay. Our first experience with Kimpton but it will not be our last. Everything about this hotel is superb. The location, the quality of the rooms and the staff, especially Thunder and Sunny. We treated ourselves to an oceanfront villa with private pool and it was so worth it. The best room we have had by far on a beach holiday. The staff are exceptional and make you feel so welcome. I would recommend this hotel without hesitation.

Beautiful spacious stylish villa with big private pool in beautiful hotel at a beautiful beach location. Staff were wonderful, especially my concierge Moss - so friendly, helpful and attentive to my needs. This included arranging restaurant bookings, providing relevant information, and anything else I needed, including even rescuing my iPad from the bar where I forgot it upon departure, and arranging for it to be carefully packed and couriered to my hotel in Bangkok so it reached me the next day before my return to Australia.
