Nestled in the best location to stay in Koh Samui, Garrya Tongsai Bay Samui is a secluded castaway paradise among 28 acres of breathtaking natural beauty wrapped around a private bay with an exclusive beachfront.

The Tongsai Bay story began in 1985 when the late Akorn Hoontrakul, then Chairman of The Imperial Hotel Group, saw Tongsai Bay from the sea and declared it as “Love at first sight.” Seven days later, Akorn purchased the land. For three months, he slept on the beach, dreaming of his ideal resort, and planned the layout and location of what would become the best place to stay in Koh Samui.
The resort opened its doors in July 1987 as the first five-star luxury hotel on Koh Samui. In 1993, Khun Akorn sold the Imperial Hotel Group while retaining The Tongsai Bay, committing his life to the island alongside his beloved wife Chompunute.
Since the year 2000, the resort has been managed by Khun Thanakorn and Saisiri, who shared Khun Akorn’s passion for the environment and providing the best of Thai hospitality and service. Garrya Tongsai Bay Samui has become a pioneer in preserving the natural environment both in Samui, Thailand, and internationally. In 2021 the owners of Tongsai Bay met with the founders of Banyan Group and identified that each held similar high ideals for sustainability, corporate governance, responsible tourism and community support. A new relationship was formed with the foundation of continuing the legacy and heritage of Khun Akorn for generations to come.
