Easy and fun to hire a jeep for the day to visit some of the quieter areas of the island and easy to find deserted beaches! If venturing up to the highest level of Namnang waterfall accept the help of the local guides as it's very steep and not that clearly marked. Good restaurants found in Chaweng include the more expensive end Olivio, an Italian within walking distance of Coral Bay Resort (still cheap by UK standards) and if on a tighter budget the Long Table restaurant towards the far end of the town where we had some lovely fish and thai food.
Dont forget to sample the thai massages/foot massages on the beach or main road - amazingly cheap.

Very local atmosphere with nothing much to do than snorkling and ralaxation. Restaurant to be recommended was "Panviman" five minutes away (free pickup) with fantastic view and excellent food.

Stayed at Chaba Samui Resort - Samui, Thailand.

We have been going to Koh Samui for years and seen its changes. The beach and the sea are still nice. There have been more working women on the island and a lot more mixed couples residing there. People used to get around the island by renting a motorbike,a jeep or get on a public pick-up truck. Now there are private taxis and I think they are very expensive, though comfortable. From Chaweng beach to Lotus shopping centre is Bt150 and to the airport is Bt300. Our recommended restaurant is Will Wait on Chawent beach. Great food with reasonable price and shows latest movies. The other one we like I don't remember the name, but it's at the end of Chawent beach. A small, normal looking resaurant across from the new Chedi spa. It's a place for authentic Thai food with a Thai-people price.

A five minute walk from the hotel will find you at the beginning of the main shopping scene. Great spas all over the island. A must is a Thai meal at Poppies.

We lined up some tours through the hotel. They were fun. Plenty of great restaurants on the beach, our favorites were Budsoba, Iyata, and Baan Thai. Didn't have a bad meal in Thailand...except KFC at BKK!!

Zazen restaurant the best in the area. Cactus also had good food. For a change, there is a superb new Steakhouse and Grill in Fisherman's Village, run by an American guy you can watch cooking from the street and tables.

The Amari Palm Reef has a wonderful new Italian restaurant called Prego which is stylish and has great food. The Coco Blues Cafe down the road has good food and excellent jazz/blues music. We also ate at the Tamarind Restaurant in the Impiana Resort and had a lovely dinner there.

Since we had two young boys, we only managed to go to the Aquarium and the Tiger show, which was okay. Food at "Poppies" was outstanding and we really enjoyed our evening at Zico's also. Some nice shops also for household stuff and jewellery.

There is a good beach restaurant for lunch and dinner next to Impiana. Especially Baan Ma-Praw is highly recommended. The beach is nice but nothing special; it is relative narrow and gets very crowded close to the hotel.

Stayed at Arayaburi Boutique Resort (Bayview Village) - Samui, Thailand.

If you are at koh samui, rent a jeep to travel around at koh samui at least 1 day.
As for where to eat, you can choose Drop In Restaurant. It's cheap and good(Chaweng). If you like to lay around at beach and have same drinks, go to chaweng beach and you can find few pubs and restaurants along the beach and spend a great evening with your loved one.
