Coco Tam's in Koh Samui is a very nice casual bar. This bar is built along the beach with many bars and seats. You can enjoy the professional fire-breathing performance here, which is very exciting. In addition, tasting the delicious food and wine here is really a very comfortable island vacation life.
We drove around Samui Island to Bophut Beach, which is located on the north side of Samui Island. The sand is relatively coarse, but this beach bar has a good location and is not exposed to the sun. The music is very European and American. Order a drink and sit down to enjoy it slowly.

Beautiful view, wind blowing all the time, good ventilation, can sit and lie down
The shop is a bit high up the hill, worth the climb
There are not many tables and parking spaces, the food is okay, the price is not too high, the staff provides good service
The view from the rooftop of the restaurant is incredible and one of the most spectacular on the island, with a 360-degree view of the sea and the surrounding nature. It is the perfect place to watch a dreamy sunset, have a drink and soak up the unique atmosphere.

The taste is good and the price is not high, except for the Tom Yum Goong... Others' comments say it is authentic, but the Tom Yum Goong I drank that day was so sour that it made my teeth fall out. Later I went to other stores to try and compare, and it was much sourer than other stores
The environment is very good, on a small street, the food tastes good, the price is not expensive, the food tastes light, although the menu says four peppers are spicy, but it is really not spicy at all.

The jungle club restaurant is a truly spectacular restaurant, overlooking the mountains and sea of Koh Samui.
The environment here is highly recommended! But the taste is enough! But it is still worth a visit to feel the environment here!

Check in at the popular bar in Koh Samui. The night in Koh Samui is a bit similar to Boracay. All the bars along the way are very lively. Of course, this one is the most lively. The business is really good. The fire dance performance is thrilling and exciting.
The cost is really low, and the drinks are good value for money (compared to many good five-star hotel bars). The diesel smell is very, very strong... It only takes three or four minutes to walk to the tent restaurant, but it smells really bad. If you like a lively atmosphere, go there. For me, the seaside bar of Sala Hotel is more suitable for me. There is also a happy hour where you can buy one drink and get one free. The service is better.

The most romantic thing is this. The layout here really satisfies the hearts of girls. The environment is really important. Koh Samui is a romantic city. There are also many local specialties in Thailand. I ordered a seafood platter.
The western food is not bad, mainly steak, which is very enjoyable. There is also a yacht club next to it, where you can see many yachts and sailboats. Mango is a good dessert at the end, and the environment is relatively good.

Khaw Glong is one of the most popular Thai restaurants in Koh Samui. The decoration is not very good, but it is not a food stall. The owner is very enthusiastic. After two days of eating, I still like the lotus leaf chicken the most.
It's so delicious. If you use a credit card, there will be a 3% handling fee. It is recommended to pay in cash. I often like their coconut smoothie. I love it. The fried fish tastes very good too, and the Tom Yum Goong soup is also delicious.

A great restaurant on Koh Samui, decorated in Southeast Asian style. My friend is a great foodie and goes to Koh Samui several times a year. I highly recommend this restaurant. The service is great. The restaurant is close to the sea, the scenery is great, and the blue water swimming pool is very atmospheric.
The second-ranked restaurant was dark, probably because it was night, with only a small light on the table. Even the order was taken by the waiter with a small light, as shown in the picture. The brightest one was taken with my flash. With tax, it cost nearly 5,000 yuan for two people, which is about 1,000 yuan. The environment was not good, and the food was not filling! Very bad experience, not recommended! By the way, they asked you if you wanted a drink or water. I asked for two glasses of water, but it was 80 yuan. What a joke!

A great place, the delicious Difang, Wanhong West Street, I like this stuff very much, if you come here, I suggest you check it out... I rarely play games, this place is a good place
The sea view is unbeatable, but I spent 1500 RMB on it.
