We took Bangkok Airways on Thursday night, first time not on SQ in a while. It was quite an interesting experience and the service/food (I ordered SFML) was not too bad. It was a blessing in disguise that there wasn't any TV as it would have cut my rest time anyway. We arrived there at night and it was raining. An airport transfer provided took us to SALA Samui Resort and spa, on Choeng Mon beach, about 10-15min's drive away. Boy, the roads were dark..
When we arrived, the receptionist helped to check us in and he was really so helpful. While I'm not sure if this is the standard of hotels in Thailand, I was blown away by their courtesy and service. We even had welcome food! We decided to walk to the nearby convenient store to stock up on food before going to bed.
The next morning, I woke up early to do at 7km run. It brought me to the Wat Plai Leam temple and back. Then we had breakfast (which was awesome) and went for our body scrub and massage. After that, we headed to Chaweng - Central Festival Shopping Centre, which I believe is the biggest in Samui and the surrounding beach and shopping street. It took up almost the whole afternoon. After that we headed to Fisherman's Wharf at Mae Naem beach area.
Following day, I went for a 15KM run to Chaweng beach and back. Then breakfast followed by massage. We had some time so I did some kayaking and swimming, as well as tanning before we took our 4h round-island tour.
Last day passed real quickly. Did nothing much except joined a sunrise yoga class, kayaked and swam. Of course we had another massage and facial.
