Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, Thailand





 
For centuries, the beaches of Koh Samui went unheralded - but their reputation has finally spread. Discover their virgin beauty while you still can - at the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, Thailand.
 
Talcum-sand beaches, tall coconut groves, and the sapphire Gulf of Siam - this is the bare minimum of what you get upon arriving at Koh Samui. You can only imagine what luxuries the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui, Thailand added to such a pristine geographic canvas.

The villas of the Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui are cut into a steep forested hillside that overlooks the ocean. The entire property goes from beachside to an altitude of 350 ft., where you'll find the Lan Tania rooftop restaurant floating above the highest trees and below the brightest stars.

Amanpulo, Pamalican Island, Philippines











Amanpulo is a serene retreat offering the pure white sands, turquoise seas and endless blue skies for which the Philippine archipelago is famed. The entire island of Pamalican is dedicated to Amanpulo, fringed by seven square kilometres of pristine coral reef and lapped by the tranquil Sulu Sea.

 Amanpulo on Pamalican is part of the Quiniluban Group of Cuyo Islands, situated in the north of the Philippine province of Palawan. Located 288 kilometres south of Manila, Pamalican is five kilometres long and only 500 metres across at its widest point.

 Amanpulo’s facilities enjoy a spacious layout complementing their natural surroundings. The resort’s casitas are situated on the beach, amongst the treetops or on the hillside overlooking the Sulu Sea. Each has its own private buggy allowing independent travel on the island.

 Skirted by white smiles of sand, clear blue waters and a coral reef 300 metres from the shore, Amanpulo is the epitome of an island paradise.
