We fulfilled a lifelong dream and spent Christmas and New Year 2023/24 on Koh Samui on the beach. In the end, we were a group of 9 friends and chose "Villa Motsamot". Apart from the fact that Thailand and Koh Samui are a paradise per se, the villa was an absolute dream - and really perfect for our group. The large and at the same time self-contained and completely quiet complex, in the middle of a beautiful garden, was simply a stroke of luck for us. We spread out in the very nice, separate rooms, each with its own bathroom (and what a bathroom!), so everyone could retreat from time to time. Otherwise, our vacation was mostly spent around the large, fantastic pool or on the beautiful terrace and the open living room. Our cook "Dao" conjured up Thai delicacies for us - whether in the morning, at lunchtime or for dinner (can be planned individually and without any complications) - amazing! And our great manager, lovingly looked after us every minute, always making sure that we wanted for nothing. She took care of our shopping (especially drinks), planned the day with us (organized massages right by the pool, among other things) and the food and also helped us with our excursions (organized a tuk-tuk for a whole day and an unforgettable, private boat tour with an awesome speedboat). In short: we couldn't have experienced our vacation and our dream any better than at Villa Motsamot. And can only recommend it to everyone, 10 out of 10 stars, although 11 would also be appropriate. Thanks to the entire team and especially "Tom", the concierge, with whom the entire planning and preparation from Germany worked perfectly.
