Consejos para la ciudad

Facilidad para moverse por la casa

You will need a car or a driver

The community is in the hills, above Maenam on the north side of the island and about 15 minutes from the airport. However, due to the nature of the location a car, driver or motorbike is needed.
Costumbres y cultura

Always smile and be kind

Thailand is a lovely place but it is important to understand that socially aggressive behaviors are not welcomed in the culture. Smile, even if you aren't feeling it and you will be fine.

Cars and motor scooters

If you feel confident to operate a motor scooter safely, then you can use one on Koh Samui. However, it can be dangerous. Whether driving or on a scooter always take care and make sure you are being cautious.
