Lotus Horizon

Why We Recommend Lotus Horizon

Set high on a Bophut hillside with sweeping views across the Gulf of Thailand, Lotus Horizon is a striking contemporary villa that makes the most of its elevated position. The four-bedroom property is built across multiple levels connected by open walkways and terraces, with a show-stopping double-height living room that opens directly onto the infinity pool. At $350 per night in low season for four bedrooms, that works out to just $88 per room — exceptional value for a fully staffed hilltop villa with daily maid service, airport transfers, and a bespoke Western kitchen designed for self-catering or private chef evenings.

What sets Lotus Horizon apart from other Koh Samui villas is its bold architectural design. Natural stone pillars anchor the structure while floor-to-ceiling glass walls blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. The upper-level gallery mezzanine overlooks both the living room and pool below, creating dramatic sightlines throughout. A dedicated pool table room with ocean views adds genuine entertainment value, and the freestanding bathtub with panoramic sea views in the master bathroom is the kind of detail that turns a holiday into something memorable.

Our Favourite Features

• Infinity pool perched on the hillside with uninterrupted views across the Gulf of Thailand and neighbouring islands

• Freestanding bathtub in the master bathroom positioned for panoramic ocean views — genuinely one of the best bathroom settings on the island
• Entertainment room with pool table and ocean views, making rainy-season afternoons entirely painless
• Grand entrance foyer with a full-height pivoting door that frames the ocean view from the moment you step inside

Good To Know

• Airport transfers are included in the rate, and Samui Airport is only about 8km away so you can be poolside within 20 minutes of landing

• The multi-level layout with stairs between floors is best suited for adults or families with older children
• 17% tax and service applies on top of published rates (7% government tax + 10% service charge), which is standard for Koh Samui villas
