The Conrad Koh Samui is one of the most coveted properties for redemptions across the Hilton Honors network. This luxury resort offers 79 ocean view, sunset-facing villas, all of them featuring private infinite pools with breathtaking views over Taling Ngam bay in Koh Samui, Thailand
130 sq. m. freestanding villa, infinity pool and terrace, ocean views, rain shower, WiFi
These quaint lower level villas are right on the beach or ocean front with full or partial sea views. Each detached villa covers 130 sq. m., including a 10-meter private infinity pool and a furnished terrace.
The spacious, modern interiors feature a king-sized bed, WiFi, smart HDTV, a work area, air conditioning, ceiling fans, and a walk-in closet. The stylish bathrooms have a rain shower, large bathtub, HDTV, and premium bathroom amenities.
These villas are absolutely stunning, and the sunsets are on my short list for the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. These villas used to sell, pre-pandemic, for $600-$800++/night, but now they’re available for about $250++/night, so probably the 95k points don’t make much sense.

been there ) nice hotel ) enjoy!
Let’s hope the cake and the teddy bear will compensate for the loneliness of the traveler in a room of a deserted resort, in period of covid, under rainy weather.
There would be no need “to compensate for loneliness” because there is no sense of ‘loneliness’ when one is at this place. There is a wonderful sense of ‘aloneness’, inner peace and ‘communion with mother nature’ that is part of the attraction of such deserted resorts, during pandemic, rain or otherwise, and should not be confused with ‘loneliness’.
I’m not quite sure that ”inner peace” is really the word that comes to mind for anyone celebrating the hundredth night at a Hilton property (in the same way as a bulimic who would come to celebrate the hundredth swallowed Wurste ).
A non sequitur – ‘inner peace’ usually has little to do with earthly happenings. Rather, it is usually other-worldly, like the beauty of Koh Samui sunsets due to interstellar dust acting as a multi-colored light filter…

Nicolas is just saddened that this is not an InterContinental… 🙂
There is no reason to be sad, as the InterContinental Koh Samui Resort is a superb property.

But not bookable through Hilton Friends & Family discounted rate.
And new Kimpton is supposed to open this winter:

Have you actually stayed at that IC that formerly was a Le Meridien? These two properties are not comparable (and the IC is available using IHG’s TA discount).
I actually had a fantastic time at the Conrad.
I sincerely hope so.
He said he did and, having been at this property, I believe him. I would enjoy it even if I were the only guest and not much was happening!
Never in my lifetime. No thank you.
