Hotel Type
Party Resort
If you've ever planned a vacation around a particular Nikki Beach, only to leave their clubs in St Barts or Marrakech to think 'I wish I could stay here all night.' Alas Nikki Beach debuts a string of new resort properties including this glitzy tropical palace at Koh Samui, owned by Nikolsons LLC. Visitors arrive to a Polynesian-inspired mid-rise with prominent white sand beach at edge of the property. The bungalow-style property is home to a series of one and two-bedroom villa-style suites and outpost of Nikki Beach Club. Inside the hotel, shiny hardwood floors frame two-story lobby area flowing into stylish yet informal lounge areas as well as a freestanding eatery known as Beach Cafe. At night, the hotel is also home to the Nikki Beach Lounge located adjacent to the beach club with a nightlife lineup of evening entrainment and DJ-fueled dance parties.
The Room
A collection of well-bronzed travelers in flip-flops and designer swimwear check-in to a series of one-and-two bedroom villas offering views of the nearby beach and infinity pool. Guest rooms are lined in natural stone floors with soothing white on white color palette that extends throughout the separated living and bedroom areas. Some rooms offer a full kitchen for cooking over longer stays, but most simply come for a bed close to the beach club action. Larger guest rooms include expanded outdoor spaces furnished in loungers and dining area with ample privacy. Lackluster bathrooms are the only flaw and could be a bit more posh, with simple granite counter tops and porcelain tubs in lieu of sleek marble slabs or Japanese-style soaking tubs.
