First Bungalow Beach Resort
Koh Samui

First Bungalow Beach Resort is the first resort in Koh Samui. The resort has been located on the best site of the beautiful mini-peninsula since the early 1970's. First Bungalow Beach Resort is also the only resort hotel placed on the connecting point of Chaweng Beach and Chaweng Noi Beach, where is accepted that it is the finest site of Koh Samui. As still run by the owner's family, it can be seen today with the unique blend of the same old simple, traditional and personalized hospitality of the owner, and all the modern amenities one can dream of in an exotic far-flung island hideout like Chaweng Beach. Nowadays, First Bungalow Beach Resort has been a must on the travel-menu of every holidaymaker.

Airplanes
The easiest way to reach Koh Samui is flying with Bangkok Airways. It flies daily from Bangkok to Koh Samui. There are minimum 8 flights a day. It takes 1 hour and 10 minutes by ATR72-200 and takes 45 minutes by BOEING717 Bangkok Airways also has a daily direct flight From Singapore to Koh Samui.

The other airline is Thai Airways but it flies daily from Bangkok to Suratthani. You have to take a bus service to Donsak Ferry Pier and take a ferryboat to Koh Samui. It may be cheaper but you need to add 4 hours to your journey.

Trains
When travel from Bangkok to Koh samui, it is highly recommended you get a night sleeper train. These trains are more comfortable and ensure smoother bus and ferry connections. All trains are run from Hualamphong Station. We advice that you buy a combination ticket which will include all your transport right through Samui. Train tickets can vary greatly in price depending on the carriage class and whether the carriage is air-conditioned or fan. When you are travelling from Samui up to Bangkok the last ferries that connect to a bus to take you to the Suratthani train station leave from Nathon at 3.30pm. There are many trains leaving every evening going to Bangkok. For more information, please contact our First Island Tour.

Buses
Bangkok to Samui buses leave from the Southern Bus Terminal. There are V.I.P., first and second-class buses available. These are all air-conditioned. The bus journey takes around 12 hours.
