Ban Suriya (it translates to mean “Sunshine House”) is set in a former coconut plantation along Lipa Noi Beach. The location is tranquil and unspoilt - just perfect for vacationers seeking to getaway from the hustle and bustle of the eastern part of Samui. With six bedrooms spread across a sprawling estate, Ban Suriya is a great bet for large group getaways, and doubles up as an excellent venue for weddings and events.
Suriya Bedroom
Butterfly Bedroom
Shell Bedroom
Up to 12 guests are comfortably accommodated in six bedrooms. Each of the rooms features a contemporary decor, sunlit interiors and an inviting ambience.
Four of the rooms feature four poster beds, one is fitted out with a double bed and the sixth bedroom is outfitted with twin singles and two roll-out beds. The first bedroom (‘The Suriya’) opens out to a cactus garden, and ‘The Wave’ offers direct access to the beachfront lawn. Three of the rooms lead out to the main pool deck or jacuzzi deck.
20 x 5 m
A fully equipped outdoor compound offers no end options for relaxation or activity. Feel like chilling out? Take a dip in the turquoise pool, lay back against the poolside recliners, kick back for an open-air movie night (there’s an outdoor movie screen!) or unwind in the spa room. There’s three other massage areas in addition to the spa room - one of which is up in a tree house - so you get to pick and choose!
Looking to work off excess energy? Head out to the private beach for a game of volleyball, or get a workout in the exercise room (it comes complete with weights, machines, a punching bag and yoga mats). Or keep things fun with a foosball match or a Nintendo Wii game.
Exercise Room
A sparkling all-white kitchen is where your private chef will whip up meals using fruits, vegetables and herbs from the villa’s garden. It extends out towards a spacious dining area. A sunken library features an extensive collection of books and board games, as well as an underwater window to the pool. Ascend the cantilever stairs to a cosy mezzanine floor furnished with sofas and recliners. Step out to the terrace to access the pool table or sunset bar.

Additional costs apply for the following amenities: villa pre-stocking, car rental, additional bedding, Nespresso coffee pods, tours, child minding service, in-villa spa treatments and in-villa yoga, personal fitness or Muay Thai boxing classes.
The powdery white sand shores of Lipa Noi Beach is just a skip away. Within the vicinity are seafront yoga retreats, walking streets and high-end spa venues; places that come with our recommendations include Marga Yoga, Nathon night food market and Baan Thai Spa at InterContinental Samui.
When you’re not enjoying in-villa dining experiences at Ban Suriya, take your pick from nearby options like Nikki Beach Club (it’s our go-to spot for Sunday brunches), The Virgin Coast Restaurant or one of the many seafood restos at Thongkrut Fisherman’s Village. For fine dining, check out The Five Islands or the Island View Restaurant.
Attractions like the Samui Cultural Center, Laem Sor Pagoda, Secret Buddha Garden and Wat Samut Tharam are located within an easy drive from your villa. Angthong National Marine Park, an archipelago of 42 islands is a popular offshore attraction. Speedboats depart from Nathon Pier (located 13 minutes’ drive away), and it’s a 45-minute ride to the islands.
10/10We enjoyed a blissful week at Ban Suriya that is honestly the best vacation I have ever had. The quality and attention to detail is of the highest order, and it’s also an absolutely stunning location on a perfect white sand beachfront. We spent our days with exercise classes, nail & massage sessions, swimming in the 20 metre pool, and the sea, and lots of relaxing - fuelled by delicious food that we selected from the extensive menu each day. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable, able to provide anything we wanted, and everything was meticulously clean every day. The bedroom turndown service was appreciated and the perfect flowers left on the bed brought a smile every evening. We can’t wait to return. Thank you
10/10We had the most amazing 6 days at Ban Suriya with incredible service and amazing food, we also had a personal trainer that was organised by the fabulous villa staff as well as Muay Thai lessons! It was so relaxing, just perfect for a large family or group of friends. We will be back!
10/10This was such an unforgettable experience. The staff were so insanely friendly and accommodating. The food was truly the best in all of Thailand and we ate at the villa as much as possible. Tik was also beyond amazing helping us with bookings and signing up for activities during the day. The villa is truly the nicest place I’ve ever stayed and would 1000/10 recommend to anyone looking to have an amazing stay in Ko Samui!
10/10We stayed at Ban Suriya for a week and it was an amazing experience! The villa has everything you could possibly wish for – fantastic pool, a beautiful beach, incredible villa staff (Khun Tik and her whole team went above and beyond for us), the most delicious fresh flavoursome food, and all the luxury finishing touches & details. We had a large group and everyone enjoyed onsite massages, personal training, yoga, Muay Thai, kayaking and mani/pedis. We all loved it so much we are planning to rebook!
10/10We had an unforgettable stay at the Ban Suriya. The service was absolutely outstanding — the entire staff was warm, attentive, and always ready to help. A special thanks to the wonderful and caring manager, who made sure every detail of our stay was perfect. The chef was amazing — the food was exceptional, and every meal felt like a culinary delight. We truly enjoyed every moment of our time here and would gladly return. Thank you for the incredible hospitality and impeccable service!
10/10A magical place in which we celebrated our wedding. We couldn't have dreamed of anything better. Thanks again to all the staff for this fabulous experience. Thank you so much
10/10If you are planning to hold a wedding or holiday in a luxury villa I would definitely recommend Ban Suriya. I have stayed in many Villas (my favourite way to holiday) and the layout, service and food was exceptional. Thank you Tik and Tom for a most memorable family wedding and holiday.
10/10This was by far the most luxurious vacation I have ever had. The manager, Tik has things well under control. If you asked for a fire breathing circus on Tuesday at 2:10 pm, she would somehow manage to get one for you :)
10/10We got married in Ban Suriya in June 2014. As with all brides, we were very nervous about ensuring that the property looked like the pictures. We were absolutely delighted when we got there and saw that the pictures didn’t even do the property justice. We walked around so excited and in awe- finding new rooms, beautiful gardens, so many lounges and things which were even better than was described on the website.
10/10The most incredibly beautiful place I've ever been not only lucky enough to see but be married at! We booked 5 glorious nights on the shores of Lipa Noi at Ban Suriya where we celebrated our wedding day amidst it all. When we first saw this place we knew it would be the most perfect wedding venue and accommodation for the bridal party... and weren't we absolutely spot on!
10/10My brother in law got married here and we used the villa as our accommodation for the week. It was excellent for both the wedding and our holiday. The staff service is exceptional, and the chef is highly recommended. The villa is well positioned on a great beach that was well suited to our young boys, especially with the available activity equipment. We will go back next year.
