Luxury villas set on a private island just off the northern tip of Koh Samui, Thailand

Koh Samui may buzz with sun seekers, but cross the water to Cape Fahn Hotel and you'll discover an exclusive world shaped entirely around you. This luxury hotel is set on its own small island, with independent villas tucked into green gardens and beside pristine beaches. Here, the only footprints in the sand will be your own.

This boutique resort is made up of 22 one and two-bedroom villas, each with their own large plunge pool and private sun deck.

Influenced by traditional Thai architecture, each one uses plenty of natural wood and light, sea-inspired colour palettes. Spend the day beside your pool, enjoying local delicacies and refreshing drinks from room service. Relax in the spa and browse the hotel boutique. Or stroll on the beach to take in views across the Gulf of Thailand.
