Our stay at Outrigger Koh Samui

This article will provide you with a detailed overview of why Outrigger Koh Samui is the best choice for your romantic getaway to Thailand.
In order to get an additional visual impression, feel free to watch our video:
Our private Pool Villa
We stayed at the most luxurious room category, the 1-bedroom- pool villa that can be occupied by up to four persons.
The villa is very spacious (100 square meters) and includes a stunning 8-meter-pool that is provided for your private use. It comes with a large terrace and a private sunbed, umbrella and chairs.
Inside the villa you experience all the comfort of a 5-star-resort, including a highly comfortable king bed, a huge bathroom with rain shower, an amazing bathtub, high performance air conditioning and so much more! See for yourself:
Inside the Pool Villa:

Look how much space you have!
I also loved the soothing atmosphere with wooden details and relaxing colors.
Outside the Pool Villa:
The locations of the villas ensure that you have lots of private space!
Our amazing 8-meter-private pool from the sunbed
This pool is so relaxing with all the beautiful plants around it..
The view from inside the pool
We absolutely loved this pool villa and found it to be the ultimate relaxing experience! No other hotel in Thailand has given us so much private space completely hidden away from eyes of other guests. The pool and the interior of the Pool Villa were very clean and provided high comfort.
The Outrigger pool area
Outside your private suite or villa you will find a luxurious resort space the provides you with everything you could possibly ask for.
What we loved most besides our Pool Villa was the shared pool area with different basins and a breathtaking ocean view!
Garden pool area – So relaxing!
Does it get any greener? I loved all the plants…
So peaceful and serene..
Look at this ocean view! Does it get any better?
This view was incredibly beautiful…
The beach at Outrigger Koh Samui
The pool area at Outrigger Beach Resort is amazing but it’s called Beach (!) Resort for a very good reason. If you get tired of relaxing by the pool you can go swimming or simply choose one of the comfortable chairs that are set up by the beach.
In case you feel more like going on an adventure, Outrigger Koh Samui has an amazing complimentary kayaking and paddleboard service. I can definitely recommend the kayaking experience since you’ll get to see much more of the beautiful sea.
Relax by the ocean on the comfortable chairs

Or go kayaking if you feel more adventurous!

The breakfast
In order to start your day right you should not miss the incredibly delicious breakfast at Outrigger Koh Samui. Besides the amazing buffet, you have also complimentary a-la-carte options like different egg dishes, French toast, waffles and many more.
Find lots of fresh fruit and pastries in the buffet
Complimentary a-la-carte options like Eggs Benedicte or French toast are so delicious!
Lunch at Outrigger Koh Samui
For lunch there is a variety of amazing options! You could go for one of their amazingly fresh and healthy smoothies, the mouth-watering pizza from the stone oven or a variety of different Thai dishes – It’s all there for you!
Oh, and have I mentioned the breathtaking lunch location yet? There’s no better place to enjoy delicious food than by the beach. Can’t beat this!
Is there a better place to enjoy lunch together?
We can totally recommend the healthy and fresh smoothies!
The traditional Thai dishes and the truffle pizzas were also amazing!
Dinner options at Outrigger Koh Samui
The dinner options at Outrigger are as diverse as the lunch options! A romantic dinner by the beach was our favorite option. Just look at this beautiful and utterly romantic scenery:
Enjoy the most romantic dinner location by the beach
What we really loved about this location is the old tree in the middle! At breakfast and lunch it provides shade for you and at dinner you enjoy the beautiful lamps that create a romantic atmosphere. Instead of cutting down the tree, Outrigger has used it to create something natural and unique! We loved this!
Outrigger’s menu provides a huge choice of different dishes and delicious signature cocktails that are to die for!
However, our favorite dinner was the original Thai buffet on Thursday. We can definitely recommend trying it! You will find plenty of different foods that are freshly prepared. You will also be able to indulge in fantastic desserts!
Fresh and original Thai food
Everything is prepared fresh for you

The desserts were amazing, we couldn’t get enough!
What a romantic evening!
Cocktails at Outrigger Koh Samui
Outrigger offers a huge choice of traditional and signature cocktails for lunch and dinner. Furthermore I can definitely recommend WetBar to enjoy a fresh cocktail by the beach or pool!

Or try fruity cocktails while relaxing in the pool 🙂
The Spa
What’s an activity not to miss while on a romantic getaway? Right, a partner spa treatment!
Our spa treatment at Outrigger Koh Samui was a 3-hour-experience that left us feeling so relaxed that even my partner vowed to visit spas more often from now on :).
You’re welcomed with a delicious tea
One part of our treatment was a relaxing bath
How wonderful that was with all the flowers!
Our treatment consisted of a foot bath, a relaxing flower bath, massages and facials. The staff at the spa was so friendly and sweet that we truly felt like we’re in heaven. What a great experience!
Our conclusion
The luxury and comfort of staying at Outrigger Koh Samui has absolutely convinced us!
We enjoyed the most romantic and relaxing getaway we could have imagined and definitely can’t wait to visit more Outrigger resorts all around the world.

Hey Greg, yes, the villa was absolutely fantastic! We loved the private pool, it was so relaxing and refreshing 🙂 If you have any questions about it, feel free to ask.
It’s definitely a location on our plan – intend to get back to Thailand in next few years so will look into this – reminds us a lot of a fantastic place we stayed in Bali.
Thanks.
Hi Adrian, it’s a great place indeed and the location in Koh Samui is fantastic. The resort is so peaceful and quiet but not far away from vivid places like Big Buddha or Chaweng. Hopefully you’ll be able to go to Thailand soon 🙂
Definitely on my bucket list for destinations! Can’t believe how luxurious it looks and sounds there!
Thanks Kathryn 🙂 It is a great place indeed, I’d return there any time.
Oh my god, what a lavish property! I love that bathtub and private pool, so much indulgence. Definitely wanna go here someday Lucky you!

Wow that bath look incredible! And so pretty with the flowers. Thanks for such insightful thoughts 🙂 Samui is a beautiful island and a great couples destination, love this post!
Oh woooooow I can’t stop looking at those pictures. Pool villa itself sounds just absolutely amazing but I love the bathtub, too! Also, I love that you included food pictures, too. I am a huge breakfast person and it all looks so good! Eggs Benedict are my favorite!!
This is indeed a gorgeous resort! I love how spacious your room is and the private pool is such a big add-on! I like my privacy so the private pool is perfect. The breakfast looks amazing as well and it’s amazing that you can have lunch on the sand, just by the sea!
It all looks and sounds so devine, I can imagine reading lots of books by the pool with a cocktail in hand. Thanks for the tips
Outrigger Beach Resort looks breathtaking and gives me serious wanderlust! It does seem very intimate and romantic. I love the different outdoor living areas, especially on the beach. The variety of food looks amazing!
I can’t think of anything I’d like better than to sit by my own private pool with a cocktail. This place really does look amazing and luxurious. I’m not a backpacker type so this looks right up my alley.
This is the perfect place for a romantic getaway! It looks calm and intimate. I love the bathtub and the private pool
I am so envious of you right now! This is a dream vacation – the perfect villa with a private pool, and that too in a dream destination Koh Samui! I can only imagine how amazing the experience would have been!
Seriously I need a holiday after reading through your awesome post! Koh Samui is a beautiful island, loved our last holiday there.
Luxury at its best. Beautifully portrayed in your post. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! That place looks absolutely stunning, a right paradise! I think i would be quite happy staying there
Looks like a lovely resort – the bathtub and private pool have sold me! Great views from the restaurant and the variety of food and cocktails looks amazing.
Well,the Outrigger definitely ticks off all the romantic getaway boxes. I love Koh Samui, and have been there twice. The resort looks like an amazing escape and the beach paddling looks perfect. lovely outdoor design and spaces.
This hotel is so dreamy! The villas are spacious, modern and very chic! You couldn’t tell that there’s 52 villas on site with the beach being so secluded! Food looks delicious too and breakfast with a view! Wow …my kind of place. I might have to book here if I make a return trip to Koh Samui.
I live in penang and Koh samui is near, wow ur post made me want to go soooon. Awesome pictures too. What a great post , enjoyed reading your blog:) keep writing:) thanks for sharing
I always want to visit Thailand and I’m gonna consider this villas as an accommodation option! Everything looks so great, I’m starving now with all the delicious food you’ve tried!
Seems cool, especially having a remote beach for oneself (private one, I guess?). Usually I just tend to book a homestay in Asian countries & spend the saved money on activities. But as for the last few days I like to spoil myself a bit – this here might be a place I’d visit for the end of my trip… 🙂
This places looks absolutely amazing! Almost don’t even need to check out the beaches…
Looks like you really enjoyed your stay! I love the video you created of the hotel and the beach and pool, really makes me wanna stay there too! I fell in love with the bathtub and the rain shower. Thanks for sharing I’ll check that place out when I go again to Thailand!
Thailand has been on my bucket list for so long and this seriously just makes me wanna book a flight over. Their pool and food look absolutely phenomenal. Seems like I just need to find a significant other so I can have an excuse to stay here hahaa.
You cover so many beautiful destinations on your blog! I love it. This hotel looks like a perfect honeymoon place. So pretty, and the beach is so pristine and the garden area so nice. I want to stay there next time when I’m in Thailand!
Loved the video! It gave me a better layout of the hotel. The place looks amazing like paradise. I haven’t been to Thailand since I was a little kid..I want to go back because obviously now it’d be a completely different experience. It’s on my bucket list 🙂 http://www.svadore.com
Although I prefer Northern Thailand since it has a richer culture and more of a Thai feel to it, I definitely would love to stay at this villa. Your own pool – wow! But as a matter of fact I couldn’t use it since I’d stay the entire day in that incredible bathroom – that’s really too good to be true.
This is so so helpful! Last time I visited only Koh Tao and missed Samui but now I have to go back! Thanks again!

Goodness me, that looks like heaven on earth… I know the islands of Thailand are beautiful but to enjoy them in such luxury must be an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photographs too 🙂
Wow! This sounds like an amazing place to stay. Thank you for sharing your experience!
Wow! The villa looks super luxurious.. Reminds me of my recent stay in Koh Jum Beach Villas, Krabi. Lovely pictures and amazing post. Thanks for sharing. 🙂
I love a private-pool villa on the beach! This place looks so romantic and relaxing!
This looks like an incredible place to stay. Love the plunge pool!
I thought I was sold at the pool pictures and then I saw the buffet. Wow. Slightly different from my experience on the island twenty years ago!
Oh wow I’m totally sold on this resort! You’re right about the bedroom and bathroom, they’re both so spacious, and I’m not jealous at all about the private pool! Your dinner choices look wonderful, and I’m so hungry writing this, and I’ve just had dinner.
We will stay at an Outrigger in Hawaii next Christmas. Judging by your description and pictures of Outrigger Koh Samui, I can’t wait!
Being single I can’t say I’m looking for a romantic getaway, but I’m pretty sure I’d be okay staying in the private pool villa here. The fact you have you’re own private pool, plus the shared pool, and beach access is fantastic. And the spa treatment sounds wonderful. Perfect place for a splurge.
Ahh this place looks like heaven! I love that you get your own secluded private pool with your hotel room. I didn’t get a chance to visit the islands last time I was in Thailand so I would love to visit Koh Samui and stay here when I go back!
It’s romantic indeed. I loved the Pool villa for the luxury and privacy that it offers. I really loved the location for the meals. The lamps and trees must have made it very atmospheric and a unique experience.
Well I don’t have a significant other at the moment, but I’d go for a private resort any chance I get. The Outrigger Koh Samui looks heavenly, with all space and greenery and the food looks so fresh and delicious! I would love to stay here when I go to Thailand.
Wow, this looks so much fun. I would love to go here with my husband. The private pool, sunbed, the view from the room, the privacy, lavish breakfast, the beach, everything makes it a perfect getaway for sure. Thanks for sharing.
