Thailand holds a special place in the heart of Lotus and Luna—after all, it’s where all of our products are thoughtfully handcrafted by talented artisans. With every piece we create, we celebrate the beauty, culture, and spirit of this incredible country. 

One of Thailand’s most breathtaking destinations is Koh Samui, a tropical paradise known for its crystal-clear waters, lush jungles, and laid-back island vibes. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or a little bit of both, Koh Samui offers an unforgettable escape. Join us as we dive into the best places to stay, eat, and explore on this dreamy island!

Big Buddha of Koh Samui

Perched on a small rocky island connected by a causeway, the Big Buddha stands an impressive 12 meters tall, gleaming in gold against the tropical sky. This revered landmark is not only a stunning sight but also a place of deep spiritual significance for locals and visitors alike. As you climb the steps to the statue, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the coastline, making it a perfect spot for peaceful reflection and incredible photos.

Na Muang Waterfall

Nestled within Koh Samui’s lush jungle, Na Muang Waterfall is a natural wonder that feels like a hidden paradise. The waterfall actually consists of two cascades—Na Muang 1, which forms a refreshing pool at its base, and Na Muang 2, a more secluded, higher-tiered fall that requires a short but rewarding hike. The cool, clear waters are perfect for a swim, and the surrounding jungle offers a serene escape from the island’s bustling beaches.

Silver Beach

Tucked between Lamai and Chaweng, Silver Beach is a postcard-perfect stretch of powdery white sand and turquoise waters. Unlike some of the island’s busier beaches, this secluded cove offers a tranquil escape where you can relax under swaying palm trees or snorkel among vibrant marine life. Whether you’re looking to lounge in the sun, enjoy a beachfront meal, or take a dip in the calm, crystal-clear sea, Silver Beach is a must-visit for those seeking Koh Samui’s most breathtaking coastal beauty.

Fisherman’s Village

For a perfect blend of oceanfront dining and lively island charm, Fisherman’s Village is a must-visit. This historic area, once home to a thriving fishing community, is now a vibrant hub of beachfront restaurants, trendy cafés, and bustling night markets. Whether you're craving fresh seafood, Thai delicacies, or international flavors, you'll find plenty of options with stunning sunset views. On Fridays, the village comes alive with its famous night market, where you can sample street food, shop for local crafts, and soak in the lively island atmosphere.

Cafe KOB

For a laid-back café experience with incredible coffee, breakfast and homemade treats, cafe KOB is the place. This charming spot, known for its welcoming atmosphere and beautifully presented drinks, is the perfect place to start your day or take a mid-day break. From rich, locally sourced coffee to fresh juices and light bites, everything here is made with care. There are multiple on the island, which makes cafe KOB a great place to stop in whether on the go or if you want to stay a while!

Sawasdee Cup

A true hidden gem, Sawasdee Cup is the perfect place to enjoy a delicious dinner with a breathtaking sunset view right on the beach. This cozy, beachfront restaurant offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making it a great spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The menu features a variety of flavorful Thai dishes, but we highly recommend trying the pineapple fried rice and the green curry —both packed with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. With the sound of gentle waves and a golden sky as your backdrop, dining at Sawasdee Cup is an unforgettable Koh Samui experience.

When packing for Koh Samui, lightweight and breathable fabrics are essential for staying cool in Thailand’s tropical humidity—and that’s exactly why Lotus and Luna is a must for your suitcase! Our pieces are designed with travel in mind, made from airy materials that keep you comfortable while effortlessly fitting into your carry-on.

The Sage Daiquiri Dress is the ultimate versatile piece, transforming from a breezy beach cover-up during the day to a chic, flowy dinner outfit by night. No need for multiple outfit changes—just slip on some sandals and embrace the island vibe with ease.

For days filled with yoga, exploring waterfalls, or wandering through Fisherman’s Village, our harem pants are the perfect companion. With a relaxed fit and breathable fabric, they keep you feeling free and comfortable, while the deep pockets make them ideal for hands-free adventuring.

No island look is complete without accessories—our Jewelry will help you fully embrace the tropical spirit of Koh Samui. Whether you're layering up for a sunset dinner or adding a little sparkle to your beach day, these handcrafted pieces bring a touch of paradise to every outfit.

As you set off on your Koh Samui adventure, we hope this guide helps you discover the best of this breathtaking island—from serene beaches and hidden waterfalls to delicious dining and unforgettable experiences.
