Six Senses Hideaway Samui
Tucked into the hillside on the northern tip of Koh Samui, Six Senses Hideaway Samui lives up to its name as you discover thatched roof villas hiding discreetly among the jungle canopy. The resort’s sounds, smells and sights reveal a rustic-chic aesthetic. Becoming one with the natural elements is the name of the design game here.
Away from the bustle of Chaweng, this eco-luxe escape values privacy above all else, making it the perfect retreat for honeymooners and high-profile guests to hide from the crowds. That’s not to say that you’re entirely cut off from worldly pleasures. A gorgeous, gulf-facing infinity pool, ocean-side fine dining and an exceptional spa are all at your fingertips, as are private pools and uber-spacious villas. When it comes to getting away from it all, Six Senses Hideaway Samui answers the call in style.
- You can’t go wrong with any of Six Senses Hideaway Samui’s 67 sea-facing villas. The higher up your villa, the better the view, so be sure to request a hilltop accommodation if panoramic vistas are your goal.
- From the moment you arrive at the Koh Samui hotel, you know you’re in good hands. A passion fruit-mint juice and a cold lemongrass-scented towel that welcome you at check-in are refreshing and thoughtful starts to your stay.
- The eco-friendly resort takes sustainability seriously, eliminating single-use plastics, implementing water-saving programs and operating its own Farm on the Hill, where food waste is turned into compost for growing produce onsite.
- A stunning, gulf-facing infinity pool offers gorgeous vistas from every angle. Large enough to swim laps, the pool is more than sufficient for a hotel of this size, especially when nearly all villas feature their own private plunge.
- Don’t miss your chance to indulge in a treatment at the Six Senses Samui Spa. Thai-inspired rituals, four-hand massages and reiki therapy can all be enjoyed from one of six private treatment villas, all flooded with natural light from wall-to-wall windows overlooking the Gulf of Thailand.
- Acclaimed eatery Dining on the Rocks is regarded as one of the best restaurants on Koh Samui, so be sure to snag a reservation early. Perched on the very tip of the headland, the restaurant boasts 270-degree views of the gulf along with an innovative menu of sustainably sourced seafood.
- Enjoy Thai fare and Western comfort food with a view at the more casual Dining on the Hill. Snag a seat on the terrace to savor dinner with over-sea sunsets.
- Instagram-worthy Drift at the Beach serves up wood-fired fare and refreshing cocktails just steps from the sand. Sip on a tropical tipple at the newly debuted bar, or cozy up on one of the overwater daybeds to enjoy light bites with delicious vistas.
- For an enchanting start to a romantic evening, grab a seat at Drinks on the Rocks. Savor sundowners such as the signature Citrus Twist alongside one of the island’s best views.
