Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa is the well-loved and personal creation of a dedicated family, and the friends who have joined them, over a history stretching back twenty-five years.

Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa was founded by Mister Wa Fathaveeporn, who is now 75 years old. Born in Hainan, China, he lived all his life in Koh Samui with his wife, Mrs Somboun Suksom, herself born and raised on the island. Mister Wa was a fisherman. While he was at sea, his wife stayed at home to educate their nine children.

More or less twenty-five years ago, the first travelers arrived in Koh Samui. Mister Wa, his wife and their children started to build a few bamboo huts and bungalows to welcome the first backpackers and hippies.

Through the years, several sons and daughters haven taken care of the guesthouse and have welcomed tourists and travelers from around the world.

Nowadays it is the turn of Ti, the youngest daughter of the household, and her Belgian fiancé Alexander Andries, who graduated in Tourism and Hotel Management in Brussels, to welcome you the modern day Zazen Boutique Resort & SpaSamui.

This young couple, full of new ideas, changed the somewhat old-fashioned place into a distinctive, contemporary and quiteunique boutique tropical resort in Samui.

Ti and Alex knew right from the start that tourists visiting Koh Samui would be looking for a comfortable and cozy place to stay, a place with personality and character, where one would be treated as a guest, rather than as a passerby, or customer.Transformations and refurbishments, adding modern room facilities to contemporary architecture in a luxurious beach setting, and an unrivalled attention to guest satisfaction have transformed Zazen into a leading Samui destination.

The meticulous search for the right detail in the decoration of the resort, drawing on ideas and research gained from extensive international experience, combined with a friendly and discreet service in a serene atmosphere, has resulted in the wonderful resort we have today.Zazen continues to grow and evolve with the generous feedback of guests and the inspiration of its management.
     
Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa welcomes you to Bo Phut beach, haven of natural harmony and home of peaceful style on Thailand’s most delightful tropical island, Koh Samui.

Distinctive and personal bungalows are located on the pristine beachfront and amongst verdant tropical gardens, with up-market furnishings, the latest in technological entertainment, and bright, luxurious style. Guests indulge in a home of the best in modern living combined with the finest of international comforts.

Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa in samui is ideally positioned on a serene stretch of beachfront along the northern shore of the island, in the quietly chic village of Bo Phut.

More relaxed than Samuis usual tourist locations, Bo Phut exhibits a romantic charm, with distinctive and individualistic shops, cafes and restaurants at hand in the enclosed and charming walking street, Fishermans Village.

Zazen at Bo Phut is within easy reach of the airport, cinema, historic port town, Nathon and upbeat Chaweng. Boats leaving for excursions beyond Samui, exploring the wondrous Angthong archipelago, are a step away.
The Cutting Edge of Style and Comfort. Introducing the newly redesigned and stunningly redeveloped luxury bungalows in Samui at Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa.

With their orange, sun-washed Mediterranean colour and traditional red-tiled roofs, these bungalows blend naturally to their surroundings, nestled amid a fragrant garden, lotus pond and balmy coconut groves beside a palm fringed stretch of golden sandy beach.

Each room is designed like a small and elegant Thai home with dual layer wooden and terra-cotta tiled floors, wide glass-fronted doors and a large veranda overlooking the beach or gardens.

The groundbreaking evolution of these private accommodations will transcend your expectations of a high quality hotel room in Thailand.

Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa presents a conceptual home combining innovative modernity with sumptuous comfort in the brightest of tropical environments.

Each home is complimented by a special Moroccan lounge in which to rest, recline and enjoy views chosen from beach front, your personal hammock swaying outside, sparkling pool or inspiring, verdant gardens, enhanced by the Mediterranean tint of the bungalows themselves.

Born and raised in Brussels and of Italian heritage, Chef Wally trained at the famous Ecole Hoteliere de Namur before working internationally to great acclaim, and joining Zazen in December, 2004.

Soft jazz mingles with the sound of gentle waves and guests enjoy the pleasures of fine dining, elegant service, and the entertainment of traditional Thai dance. Meals may be taken at intimate beachfront alcoves, an experience unique on the island and forever to be cherished.

The restaurant is located on the beachfront at Bo Phut, with sweeping views of neighbouring islands over the tranquil and gentle waters of the bay.
