Silavadee Resort sits on Laem Nan, a rocky headland between Lamai and Chaweng on Koh Samui. You stay on a tucked-away slope above a small cove, so nights feel calm and dark. Granite boulders frame a pocket of pale sand and clear water with bright fish. From the decks, you watch long tail boats pass, clouds move over the gulf and the lights of Chaweng shimmer in the distance. The airport drive takes around thirty minutes.

You can choose between pool villas, oceanfront suites, and bright rooms with open views. Many villas sit right on the cliff edge with expansive decks, daybeds and pools that seem to spill into the sea. Inside, you find deep tubs, generous beds and rich wood that gives a warm tone. Some layouts suit couples who want privacy. Others offer more space for a child or extra friends. Every option feels grown-up and relaxed.

Free days at Silavadee tend to follow the sun. You might roll out of bed for a simple yoga stretch while the sea looks still and pale. After breakfast, you learn how to grind curry paste in a Thai cooking class and taste your own work. Kayaks and stand-up paddle boards let you nose around the rocks. Children paint, bake, and laugh during kids' activities while you plan an outing or relax with a book.

Days at Silavadee revolve around space, wellness and views. Sila Wellbeing brings daily movement, mindful classes and thoughtful nutrition. Silavadee Spa uses natural textures and soft light to ease shoulders, skin and mood. Infinity pools blend into the sea so you almost float above the bay. A small organic garden supplies herbs and greens. The resort team also arranges private dining, island outings and tailored touches that feel very personal.

Dining at Silavadee feels like a slow journey through the day. The Height focuses on southern Thai flavours with depth and spice. Moon serves inspired all-day dishes with sea views on three sides. Sun Lounge brings coffee, fresh bakery treats and light plates between swims. Star, the rooftop bar, feels perfect for sunset drinks, shared plates and long talks under a clear sky.

Special occasions feel different on this cliff. You walk down a little path to the Divine Beach Wedding deck with palms, rocks and sea around you. Vows sound clear in the salt air. After the photos, you move to a villa terrace for a long dinner with candles and local flowers. Big birthdays and family reunions work well here, as private pools, easy music and expansive views keep everyone close. Quiet help keeps the focus personal.
