hello
we are going to ko samui in a couple of weeks and want to stay somewhere nice but without too many people. has anyone been to chaweng beach and could you recommend a resort?
thanks

Check out www.laemsetinn.com. Not too many people but away from chaweng beach. Accomodations in all price ranges.

First, if you don't want too many people---forget Chaweng Beach, its very crowded, especially the street that all the hotels are on. But, if you must stay there, Poppies probably fits the bill best(24 rooms), we just returned from there last week. Personally, if we go back again, we'd opt for the White House on Cheng Mon Beach, fantastic hotel on a beautiful, quiet beach that is less than 10 minutes from the action at Chaweng. Here's a review of it http://www.asiatraveltips.com/hotelsinkohsamui.shtml

also look at the peace resort
