Koh Madsum, a hidden island for peace and romance (video)

Just a 10 minute boat ride from Koh Samui lies one of Thailand's hidden gems: the islet Koh Madsum. You can go there for a romantic stay or if you are looking for peace and privacy.

Koh Madsum, also spelled Koh Matsum, is a small idyllic island located in the Gulf of Thailand, near the larger and more famous island of Koh Samui. It is one of several islands that make up the Samui Archipelago and is a popular destination for day trips and snorkeling adventures.

Koh Madsum is known for its beautiful white sand beaches, crystal clear waters and untouched nature. It is a paradise for lovers of sun, sea and tranquility. Due to its remoteness and lack of infrastructure, the island has remained relatively undeveloped, helping to preserve its natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere.

One of the main attractions on Koh Madsum is snorkelling. Surrounded by colorful coral reefs, the island is home to a wealth of marine life, including tropical fish, sea turtles, and other fascinating marine life. The shallow water makes it ideal for both novice and experienced snorkelers.

In addition to snorkeling, visitors to Koh Madsum can also enjoy sunbathing on the powdery sands, swimming in the clear waters, or simply relaxing and taking in the beautiful views. The relaxed atmosphere and lack of crowds mean that you can truly escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and fully enjoy the natural surroundings.

Because Koh Madsum has no major hotels or resorts, there is limited accommodation available to visitors. However, there are a few small-scale bungalow-style lodgings on the island that offer an authentic and rustic experience. For more accommodation options and amenities, travelers can stay on nearby Koh Samui and take a day trip to Koh Madsum.

To reach Koh Madsum, visitors can take a boat trip from Koh Samui, where several companies offer day trips and snorkeling adventures. The boat trip usually takes about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the weather conditions and the speed of the boat.

The small serene island has the comfort of a modern luxury resort. You can also fish, snorkel, water ski, kayak or pamper yourself with a relaxing spa treatment. The island itself is very narrow, so it's nice to walk from one side to the other, which takes about 15 minutes.

U Koh Madsum Samui offers luxurious accommodation with panoramic views of the Gulf of Siam and outlying islands. The villas are stylishly decorated and offer a range of modern amenities such as air conditioning and a flat-screen TV. The on-site restaurant serves a variety of Asian and Western dishes and refreshing drinks.
