1. InterContinental Koh Samui
The InterContinental Koh Samui has one of the best club lounges on the island of Koh Samui.
Koh Samui is a popular tourist destination just over an hour away from the busy capital Bangkok. The resort sits atop a cliff amidst coconut plantations and has 300 meters of its own beach frontage along the scenic coast of Taling Ngam. The resort is renowned for incredible sunsets and breathtaking ocean views, set across 22 acres of luscious tropical gardens to the quiet, unspoiled, white sandy beachfront.
InterContinental Koh Samui Resort is home to 79 rooms, suites, and villas, which sit on a clifftop and descend through tropical gardens to a private 180-meter white sand beach.
The resort affords magnificent views across the Gulf of Thailand, the famous Five Islands, and Ang Thong National Marine Park; no wonder it is featured in the New York Times’ bestselling book ‘1000 Places to See Before You Die’.
There are 170 InterContinental Hotels & Resorts in major global cities such as London, Paris, New York, and Tokyo, including 50 in Asia Pacific. InterContinental Samui Baan Taling Ngam Resort will join InterContinental Hua Hin Resort also in Thailand, which opened in 2009.
Club InterContinental at InterContinental Koh Samui offers a brilliant club lounge with a personalized butler and concierge service, complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, and sunset cocktails & canapés, located right on the beach.
The 24/7 Club InterContinental lounge is very chic, and you can enjoy the complimentary food and drink along with a selection of daily local and international newspapers and lifestyle publications. You get unparalleled panoramic ocean views paired with incredible service in your tropical paradise.
Club guests can indulge in a range of complimentary food and beverage options: gourmet breakfast in the lounge, light refreshments, such as coffees, teas, soft drinks, mineral water, juices, and snacks, then afternoon tea and evening cocktails and canapés in the lounge with lots and lots of delicious canapés. The evening buffet features lots of small dishes that you can enjoy with sublime cocktails while you watch the most spectacular sunset in Samui.
