Why should you have your beach wedding in Thailand?
There’s a reason Koh Samui keeps showing up on every couple’s wedding shortlist. Its coastline is made for romance.

It’s not just about the scenery (as breathtaking as they are). The warm hospitality means you’ll be cared for every step of the way. Add to that delectable Thai cuisine and spa experiences to ease any pre-wedding jitters, and you’ve got a celebration that feels as good as it looks.
And let’s not forget the best part: it’s a wedding and a holiday rolled into one. Your guests will thank you for the excuse to unwind, explore and celebrate love in paradise.

Baan Kilee
Location: Lipa Noi; 54-minute drive from Koh Samui International Airport
Good for: 150 event guests; Sleeps up to 18 guests overnight
Set on Samui’s peaceful west coast, Baan Kilee pairs a 30-metre beach frontage with a 22-metre infinity pool facing the turquoise sea and the Five Islands, the kind of view that turns a ceremony into a memory on its own. Eight bedrooms spread across separate garden pavilions that sleep up to 16 guests, including children’s rooms, keeping the whole family close for the celebration
The poolside sala and beachfront lawn double as an easy ceremony or cocktail setting, and mealtimes are built to fit the whole group, whether that’s gathered around the 20-seater dining room with its swing beds, spread across the beachfront breakfast spot the morning after, or spilling out onto the pool deck and lawn for a more relaxed setup. A show kitchen with its own bar keeps drinks and conversation going long after dinner winds down.
There’s plenty to fill the days around the wedding too: a 371 sqm gym, yoga and meditation, even Muay Thai training if guests want to try something new, plus in-villa spa treatments and a media room for downtime. A private chef and full staff round things out, covering Thai, international, vegetarian, vegan and kids’ menus for the whole stay.
