Koh Samui Named ‘Best Island’ in Asia Pacific: More Wins at Travel + Luxury Award Night 2024

Koh Samui claimed the prestigious title of “Best Island in Asia Pacific” at this year’s Travel + Luxury Awards, beating Bali, the previous winner, and several other popular destinations. Thailand’s second-largest island scaled the ranks from its previous recognition as the 6th “Best Island in Asia Pacific”, marking a significant leap with promising prospects for Koh Samui’s burgeoning tourism industry.

Renowned for its idyllic beaches, world-class hospitality, and rich cultural sites, Koh Samui continues to attract global visitors from all regions, with an increase of 66% in tourists last year. Holiday properties have taken advantage of this influx expanding accommodation options on the island; whether seeking a luxury Koh Samui Villa Resort or a high-end hotel, visitors are presented with several opulent getaways, including Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort. This latest award is a testament to the island’s enduring allure and the tourism sector’s relentless pursuit of excellence.
