Just a quick one to tell you that I have arrived in Ko Samui after a flight from Singapore to bangkok with Cathay Pacific (very nice 777) then a turboprop down to Samui.
Chaweng is a strange place. The beach is gorgeous with perfect sand, it is clean and a reef 100m out breaks up the wash and creates a perfectly calm laggon. But inthe evening, it resembles Benidorm with prostitution on full view. A bit seedy. I am going to rent a jeep for a few days and travel around the island stopping at different hotels as I travel. I far prefer India but the massages are very good!
The hotel is basic but clean. The rooms are bit on the small side. There are mosquitos everywhere, not just in the hotels. I was never bit this much in India.
The area is suffering from a tropical depression at the moment. The sun is few and far between but when it does appear you burn very quickly. I was on the edge of burning today. I have red and white blotches cos i cant reach all of my back with my cream.
The hotel is Als Huts Moo2 Chaweng Ko Samui. You can find it on the web if you are interested and jealous.
