... for it. After finally finding a couple of square metres of rubbish-free sand, the afternoon was spent sun-worshipping on Lamai beach, with a lunch of pineapple and mango supplied by a passing vendor who expertly chopped the pineapple into bite-size ...

... riders here didn't bother. And I seemed to be one of the very few who wore a helmet. Today I visited the other popular Lamai beach and it was much the same as Chaweng. There were some excellent views of the island bays along the way. Following the ...

Lamai beach is not the most tranquil place to swim on Samui. It can be downright rough, and when I took my first dip I was plowed by a measly three-foot wave. It's not pleasant having gravelly sand flushed into your shorts. A few hours later I heard ...

... very simple, the location is absolutely first class. The bungalow, called Wishes Bungalow, is situated on Hat Lamai beach... the second major beach in Koh Samui. I am so glad I didn't stay on Chaweng beach... fully of 5 star resorts and manicured, toffee ...

... . James and Lucy came over to Lamai beach for the evening and we when out for some food at the local food market.  Lamai beach is very busy, but full of nice and nasty little bars. Most have pole dancers on or behind the bars or pretty girls (some ...

... the first time I've had my own room with bathroom and I even have a small veranda and hammock. I am staying in Lamai, Ko Samui in Thailand. It was quite a long journey from Kuala Lumpur but worth it as I got to see loads of the Thai landscape and scenery ...

... . She fixed us up with a place to stay and we were sorted for the night. The beach area that we stayed on was called Lamai Beach and it was really nice. You could walk about 10 minutes and you would hit all the restaurants and bars which looked out on to ...

We stayed on Lamai beach on Ko Samui for four days (as far as we can remember)!  We were in idyllic little beach huts with thatched roofs that you could almost see the sea from and certainly hear it!  Now I would just like to shatter this ...

We have just had the most relaxing and wonderful 10 days on Koh Samui courtesy of the parents. We have stayed at the Renaisance near Lamai beach. It was really secluded and quiet, with a huge comfy bed. I haven't slept so well since we left in April. ...

What better way than to wind up our travels with 17 days on the beach. So we returned to Seabreeze Bungalows on Lamai Beach loaded up with several books looking forward to relaxation in the sun. The sea when we arrived was not as millpond-like as it was ...

... off the back 'cos we were the last on... made it a bit of fun tho'. We're staying at a budget resort right on Hat Lamai beach called Sea Breeze for 400B a night (NZ$16) - thinking we may never leave, could live on bank interest alone. Anyway, back to the ...

... of travelling, not everyone is out to rip you off. For the next 5 days we make our home Samui Beach Resort, located on southern end of Lamai Beach. Taking Jimmy'sadvice (you may remember him from our Penang chapter, the godfather of Penang) we decide ...

... Ko samui infact. We found a good deal with a bus company on the other side of the island, which takes us from the peir to Lamai beach, then it will take us round some guest houses until we found a suitable one. Which we did, it was literly on the beach, ...

... to Samui. After a pretty rocky boat ride and a good hour looking around for a decent cheap place to stay on Lamai beach, we eventually found a bungalow pretty much bang on the beach. Following an annoying aussie guy's advice we then spent the evening in ...

... of the island where apparently the better beaches were - some Swedish or perhaps Norwegian chaps recommended some huts at the north end of Lamai beach, I took their advice and ended up at Amity Resort later that afternoon. At first it was all a bit of a ...

... minutes from my hotel. There I met up with Frank and Eva and they showed me their nice hotel and Lamai beach. His parents live in the North of Thailand so they all drove down together in a Chevrolet pickup truck. The three of us borrowed it and took ...

... We (stupidly) sat outside at the front on the boat. It took about 2 1/2 hours to get to Ko Samui the largest isalnd off the east coast of thailand. The boat trip was good, nice weather, cooling breeze, views of beautiful islands as we went. Towards the ...

... much as we wanted some piece and quiet. Our resort had about 12 bungalows leading onto a shingle beach, not as nice as Ko Samui's beach and the water wasn't as clear or blue or was very deserted which we wanted. The Bungalow itself was great with very ...

... you go.  No overpriced taxis or nothing. By the way, the water here is amaaazing.  We drove down South to get to Lamai beach, which is an awesome beach, and the water is sooo so clear.  I think I went swimming around for an hour or so, ...

I had a nice last swim at Lamai beach, by our bungalow, and will go eat lunch with Jack before boarding our boat at 1:30pm. Beautiful weather today.  Super sunny and hot, compared to cloudy and cool (which was also nice) yesterday. And away I ...
