Neighbourhood description:

Villa Amber provides a quiet and peaceful location, particularly for couples, who want to experience and learn more about the local Thai culture. You will have plenty of places to explore. This beautiful tropical area has quiet local beaches, authentic local Thai restaurants, Rum Distillery, Laem Sor Pagoda, the waterfalls and the fishing village of Thong Krut with its wonderful atmosphere and stunning sunsets.

The local beach to Villa Amber is only 650 mtrs away, where the coastline is calm and shallow waters. Due to the water being shallow, it may not always be ideal for swimming. There is a real beauty however in these quiet and natural beaches which can hold a far greater appeal than busy tourist beaches. Walk alongside the palm trees, dip your toes into the clear water and feel the sense of Koh Samui of long ago. Within this area you will also find boat trips, snorkelling trips and kayaking on offer, together with several lovely beachside restaurants and cafes. You may prefer to swim at Lamai Beach, only a 10 min drive away, where the ocean is deeper. You also have your own private pool at the villa.

A few mins walk are a couple of local shops. Just 800 mtrs away is 7-Eleven, a local 24hr store for your basic shopping, together with ATM, which are located everywhere across the island. With also the Tesco Lotus Superstore and the popular large food supermarket, Makro located in Lamai, your every need is catered for.

There are many excellent restaurants to choose from. Within a 3 min walk of Villa Topaz is a popular local Thai Restaurant, Somtum Indy, serving both Thai and European food. Also 5 min walk away is the elegant Baan Bo Ran village which has dining indoor rooms with aircon or outdoor tables set by a beautiful Lotus lake. The ever popular and healthy Organic Restaurant Sweet Sisters is only 800 mtrs away. Also 600 mtrs from the villa is Les Jardins De La Rhumerie Restaurant, which is set in a lovely garden and opens for breakfast, staying open from 9 until 21.00 hrs.

Thong Krut, the local fishing village, has many wonderful local beachfront restaurants to experience, along with the nearby beautiful Laem Sor Pagoda to visit - all less than a 6/7 min drive away. Located here in the south tip of the island you will see beautiful sunsets, where it is the perfect place to enjoy the simple pleasures, away from any hustle and bustle.

The southern part of the island, where Villa Amber is located, remains pretty much unspoiled, especially compared to the north. It still has that rustic charm appeal that the whole of Samui once boasted years ago. We are frequently told by guests they find the Thai people in this southern part of the island extremely hospitable, and welcoming. In the north where it is far more crowded and touristy on the island there is not always the opportunity to discover the true warmth and charm of the local people.

The beaches in the south remain pretty much undeveloped, due mainly to the shallow coastline. If you like to explore you can still find areas where you have the beach to yourself, and never too far away will be a rustic Thai restaurant where you can enjoy true authentic local dishes.

LOCAL ATTRACTIONS

The seaside town of Lamai, the second largest on the island, and superior to congested Chaweng, is 10 minutes away by car or moped, where you can fine dine in one of the many beachside restaurants. There are individual shops offering locally made souvenirs and clothes. When the sun goes down the streets come alive with lights from the night market and variety of restaurants serving excellent Thai and western dishes in the town and on the beach. Thai boxing is also popular and Lamai has its own professional and amateur boxing ring. Five mins north of Lamai is Silver beach one of the best beaches on the whole island.
