Now this starts the mind spinning round and round with possibilities.

But arriving back at the present, Koh Samui remains famous the world over for great boutique hotels and a charming island life style.

Now the Aleenta chain will open their second Samaui property the Akaryn on idyllic Hanuman Bay shortly.

There are 38 freestanding suites with pools and 18 private pool villas. The resort is on the site of the former Atlantis and has now been positioned into something quite special.

Visiting the site recently one of the best attributes of the location is the half moon bay and over 500 meters of oceanfront which is accessible.
