Malibu

Malibu Beach Resort Samui sits directly on Chaweng Beach, but the feel inside the resort is much calmer than the location suggests. Century-old trees, tropical gardens and low-rise accommodation create a leafy buffer from the shops, restaurants and nightlife just outside, while Central Samui is only a few minutes away on foot.

Rooms range from garden-view studios and terrace rooms to larger pool-view suites and a 110 sqm one-bedroom chalet, giving guests a choice between a simple base close to the beach and something with more space for a longer stay.

The beachfront saltwater pool sits between the gardens and the sand, and Marzano Pizzeria serves breakfast, wood-fired pizza, drinks and beachfront dining throughout the day. Non-resident guests can also book a day pass with pool and beach access, Wi-Fi, showers and food included.

The location is one of Malibu's strongest points. Chaweng Beach is right outside, Central Samui is only a short walk away, Samui Airport is around ten minutes by car, and the rest of central Chaweng is easy to explore without constantly relying on transport.
