        This goodwill message is coming to you from a tiny piece of paradise located in the ancient Sea of Siam and voted the most desirable island destination on the planet. OnlyInSamui.Com are one of Koh Samui's leading villa rental, beach resort and charter cruise agents with the widest selection on the island.  Did you know that last year, Samui welcomed over 1.2 million visitors - and many keep returning - especially those who book with OnlyInSamui.Com - the island's premier hospitality hosts.         And the reasons visitors keep coming back? Because they simply cannot get enough of the laid-back way of life and the mind-boggling human experiences they encounter here. But the most compelling reason of all is to be found in the island's very appropriate nickname: the Isle of Smiles:  

When the locals make eye-contact they automatically show respect by giving you the world-famous Wai . This typical Buddhist gesture - with  hands clasped, a winning smile and a sprinkling of colourful words: Sawat DEE kah - gives you the goose bumps until you get used to it. It's highly contageous and soon you'll be wai-ing everyone you meet. It's also useful for other greetings like: Hello, Good Morning,  Good Afternoon and Good Evening. Yet again it can also mean: Thank You - Goodbye or even Sorry!  Confusing?   Hey it's great, you'll love it!

     Here is a map of Koh Samui that you can zoom onto or take a  quick glance at these  short videos of Samui's beach and street scenes (switch on sound if you have it). Come and explore the endless miles of deserted palm-fringed beaches here and enjoy perhaps the freshest and cleanest air on earth. Located within the Angthong National Marine Park the water is most times a clear turquoise blue, making wreck and coral diving truly memorable experiences. Yet, in the rainy seasons, we do have sudden and sometimes heavy downpours - which helps cool the island and by which means Mother Nature creates her lush tapestry of flora: with orchids that seem to grow out of every nook and cranny, visited by butterflies as big as sparrows - an experience that makes you feel glad to be alive. 

      If you are first-time visitors with children, you'll be pleased to know that this quiet little backwater, located 9^o degrees north of the equator, never experiences calamities such as typhoons, tsunamis or terrorism. Even the annual SE Asia monsoon thoughtfully skirts the island, and apart from a rare tornado that took a corrugated roof off a beach house last year, we think it's safer than living in the west!  Not too long ago, the highest cause of accidental death on the island was from coconuts falling on people's heads - that's absolutely true! But if you want to know what causes the headaches nowadays, get a free unbiased reality check here.

          Here also, you'll find another world-famous Thai innovation: the Thai head, foot or body massage. But here its actually done on the beach, with the waves lapping just a few feet away. The many beautiful and talented masseuses on Samui demonstrate their skills with you laying on a very functional sun-shrouded raised platform called a clare. The sides are open-sided with a see-through white mesh alluring to a touch of intimate privacy . . . more . . .
