DK Eyewitness "The Thai-style villas here are luxurious but not over the top. There is an infinity pool on the beach, but each villa has its own private plunge pool."

"The Belmond Napasai is an all-villa luxury resort on the northern coast of Koh Samui island." Full review
Jetsetter "All-villa tropical hideaway on Koh Samui's northern shore with a beach restaurant and a 24-hour infinity pool." Full review
Star Service "This former plantation isle now has almost more acreage sown in luxury hotel accommodations and private multimillion-dollar villas than in coconut palms." Full review
Fodor's "The name means "clear sky," and if you book a beachfront room you can enjoy the view of both the sky and the sea from your outdoor terrace, from inside your room, or even from your bathtub." Full review

"Set in immaculate gardens alongside a beautiful bay in a tranquil corner of Koh Samui, the Belmond Napasai's superlative location will instantly make you forget the outside world." Full review
Frommer's "Though isolated, it is gorgeously self-contained. A top spa and good in-house dining make it a plum choice for well-heeled romantics." Full review
Lonely Planet "Gorgeously manicured grounds welcome weary travellers as they glide past grazing water buffalo and groundsmen donning cream-coloured pith helmets." Full review

Concierge "The bloodred-tiled pool is the dramatic centerpiece, with huge pillows and daybeds beside it. High white walls and black-lacquer floors provide museumlike backdrops for Thai antiques."
Fodor's "This place is so fun that it's worth a visit for its amusingly hip decor—check out the white figures reading books on the lawn, inviting you to lounge as well." Full review
Jetsetter "A high-design hideaway dotted with artwork and sculptures on one of Koh Samui's best beaches." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "In crowded Chaweng Beach, this 26-room hotel’s high style attracts a stream of beachcombers (prepare to show your key to the hotel gatekeeper)." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The minimalist white rooms are striking and the restaurant called The Page is excellent."
Star Service "Even from the airplane, this resort stands out on Koh Samui's crowded Chaweng Beach, thanks to its distinct and dramatic red-tile swimming pool." Full review
Rough Guide "High-concept design hotel, based around a library of books, DVDs and CDs with computer terminals."
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"This place is too cool for school, which is ironic since it's called 'The Library'. The entire resort is a sparkling white mirage accented with black trimming and slatted curtains." Full review
OysterLuxury
"With its superb design and striking red-colored swimming pool, The Library is arguably the hippest luxury beachfront resort in Koh Samui." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "There’s nothing like relaxing on a beautiful beach with a good book, and the luxurious, modern The Library hotel set along Koh Samui’s famous Chaweng Beach takes this notion to the next level." Full review
