Koh Samui → Lamai: key facts

Lamai from Koh Samui Airport (USM) by private transfer: €30 per car (1–3 people) or €45 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 14 km via 4169 and 4171, roughly 15 min when traffic is light and 15–25 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the arrival hall of Samui International Airport, at the exit after baggage claim, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Lamai is the second-largest beach resort on Koh Samui, on the east coast south of Chaweng. From the airport the route runs south past Chaweng on the ring road, Route 4169, then climbs over the hilly headland between Chaweng Noi and Lamai, passing the viewpoints above Coral Cove before dropping down into the Lamai valley. The distance is about 14 km and the drive normally takes 20 to 25 minutes; the stretch through Chaweng is the slowest part in the evening.

Lamai Beach curves for several kilometres below a green hillside, with hotels and bungalows along the beach road and in lanes leading down from the ring road. The small town centre with its market and restaurants is in the middle of the bay, and the Hin Ta and Hin Yai rock formations stand at the southern end near the village of Ban Hua Thanon. Most resorts can be reached by car to the door, though a few hillside villas sit on steep, narrow access roads.

Public transport: Samui International Airport has no rail link, and its operator Bangkok Airways does not publish a scheduled public bus line to Lamai; arriving passengers use road transfers arranged at or before arrival.
