Koh Samui bachelorette party

The villa, the spa and the sea

Friday you land on Samui, and the car takes you to your own villa on the beach. The DJ is on by sunset.

Saturday is a boat day among the islands of Ang Thong, a swim off the back and the bar on deck.

Sunday is massages at the villa and photos by the pool. Or, on a Full Moon date, your own boat to Haad Rin.

Chaweng's clubs are there when you want them, all on one street.

Plan it with Tanner, and he runs the weekend around the bride.

Day 1: a pool party at the villa, or ARKbar and the clubs.

Day 2: a catamaran to Ang Thong, or a motor yacht.

Day 3: photos by the pool, or your own boat to the Full Moon.

Spa morning on day three? Swap it in for the photos. Ask Tanner to lock in the bride's picks.

What it costs for 12

Here are the three days for 12, priced for the whole group with VAT inside.

The villa parties are priced in the table. The catamaran for up to 12, the motor yacht and the Full Moon crossing are quoted to your plan, with the DJ and the bar on top.

The villa adds from ฿18,500 a day, and the cars are matched to your plan. The Ang Thong park fee is ฿300 for each foreign adult and ฿150 a child, under the Department of National Parks fee rules, paid at the park and never inside the boat price.

Tanner's pick: for 12, take the catamaran to Ang Thong. It's the day the bride talks about at the wedding.

Ask Tanner for your dates, and he sends one price for everything.

Extras for the bride

A spa afternoon brings the massages to the villa for the whole group.

Our photographer, from ฿10,000 for the day, follows you at the villa or on the boat.

Dinner by the water and the walking street are in Bophut's Fisherman's Village. A private chef can cook one long dinner by the pool instead, to your menu.

Name it and it's done. Ask Tanner what the bride would love.

Samui by day

Ang Thong is 42 limestone islands about 30 km northwest of Samui, 45 to 60 minutes by speedboat, with a 500 m climb to the Pha Chan Charat viewpoint. See Ang Thong.

The park closes from 1 November to 15 December, so a boat day in those weeks goes along the Samui coast instead.

An elephant sanctuary is a gentle morning: walk with the elephants and help feed them, with a Thai lunch. No riding, and our car takes you from the villa.

A cooking class starts at the market, then you cook lunch together. Or take a slow morning on the sand: see Koh Samui beaches.

Ask Tanner to fit the day out around the bride.

Where to stay

Chaweng Noi puts the beach right there and the clubs close by. Bophut and Choeng Mon are near the airport, Fisherman's Village and the boats to Koh Phangan.

Our villas say yes to a party, and the music ends between midnight and 6am, depending on the villa. The bigger beachfront villas cost more, and the view is why.

The full list is on Koh Samui pool villas. Ask Tanner which villa fits all 12.

Where Samui dances

Chaweng has the island's clubs and late bars.

Start with the beach party at ARKbar, then Green Mango.

Green Mango is free on a normal night and opens around 9pm, with an event cover on big nights.

Lamai, further south, is quieter, with live music.

Licensed entertainment venues in Koh Samui district and licensed venues inside hotels may open until 4am; ordinary bars and restaurants close earlier, usually by 2am. Ask Tanner which night to save for Chaweng.

Is Koh Samui good for a party?

For a bachelorette, yes: it's beach clubs and villa parties, not a big-city night. The party is where you make it.

A Koh Samui bachelorette party runs best as afternoons at the villa or a beach club, sunset drinks, then Chaweng if the bride wants to dance. Call it a hen party in Koh Samui or a bachelorette: the plan is the same.

Insider tip: dance on the sand at ARKbar first, then walk over to Green Mango once it opens around 9pm.

Ask Tanner which evening to save for the clubs.

The Full Moon, next door

The Full Moon Party fills Haad Rin beach on Koh Phangan, 20 to 30 minutes by boat from Samui.

The 2026 dates still to come are 24 November and 24 December, plus a New Year countdown on 31 December, Ume Travel lists.

Your own boat leaves from Bophut or Choeng Mon, and comes back when you're ready. Villas near those piers go first in Full Moon weeks.

See the Full Moon Party guide and Koh Samui to Koh Phangan. Ask Tanner to hold a boat for your Full Moon date.

How it works with Tanner

A few messages, and the island is ready for you.

• Ask Tanner with your dates, the size of the group, and if you want the Full Moon.
• Choose the villa, then the boat day and the last afternoon.
• One price comes back for the villa, the boat, the bar and the cars.
• The car meets you at Samui airport. See Samui airport transfers.
• Each evening the car waits, and you all head home together.

Plan it with Tanner, and all you do is turn up.

What we look after

The villa, the boat and crew, the DJ, the bar and the cars are all on Tanner, start to finish.

Flights, park fees, the spa and food outside the plan are yours.

Want close protection? See bodyguards: plain clothes, there all evening. Ask Tanner what else to add.

Sharing the cost

The group decides, and many cover the bride's share between them.

The villa, the boat day and the drivers are shared. The spa, the Full Moon boat and any extra days are up to each guest.

You see the total and each guest's part before anyone pays. Ask Tanner for the split.

When to come

February to April is the driest stretch, with the calmest sea for the boat day, and February to September is the best of the year.

November is the wettest month, about 445 mm, and October to December brings choppier crossings, the Thai Meteorological Department's normals show.

Book the villa two to three months ahead for Full Moon weeks. Ask Tanner which weekend works best.

Samui, Phuket or Bangkok?

Samui is the beachfront villa, the boat and the Full Moon next door.

Phuket is a yacht day and the beach clubs.

Bangkok is rooftops and the river.

For more than one, see the Thailand bachelorette weekend. Ask Tanner which island suits the bride.
