Samujana Villas

Perched on a hilltop above a coral cove, this private villa resort on Koh Samui skips hotel rooms entirely: the smallest option sleeps three, and some stretch to eight bedrooms, each with its own infinity pool and a kitchen where the in-house Thai chefs will cook you a green curry without you ever having to leave. The Michelin Guide awarded it 3 Keys. Sleek, open to the breeze, and designed for lingering, it's the kind of place that makes leaving feel unreasonable.
