Mae Nam | Luxury Villa Rentals in Koh Samui

Mae Nam is Koh Samui's quiet north coast: a long, palm-backed beach with calm water and views across to Koh Phangan, and a village that has kept its local character. Our villas include homes on the beach and others with sea views, each with a pool.

Bophut's Fisherman's Village is a few minutes east, and the airport is about fifteen minutes away. It suits families and couples who want a real beach and village rather than a resort strip.

Mae Nam is Koh Samui’s laid-back north coast — a long, quiet beach facing the island of Koh Phangan across a calm channel, with a relaxed village behind it that has kept its local character better than anywhere else on the island. It offers the balance many travelers are looking for: a real beach, genuine Thai atmosphere, and easy access to the island’s dining and airport, without the crowds. Our villas here are beachfront and sea-view homes with infinity pools, wide terraces, and full staff, set along the shore and the low hills behind it. The beach at Mae Nam runs for several kilometers of soft sand, backed by coconut palms, with calm, swimmable water that suits families. The village itself is a pleasure — low-key cafes, small restaurants, and a well-loved Thursday walking-street market — and the surrounding area remains green and unhurried. Bophut’s Fisherman’s Village, with the island’s best dining and its own Friday market, is a few minutes east, while the airport is around fifteen minutes away and Chaweng about twenty-five. Boats to Koh Phangan and the Full Moon beaches leave from nearby. The villas suit families, groups of friends, and couples who want a beach and a village rather than a resort strip — estates with private chefs, villa managers, housekeeping, and concierge planning, many with direct beach access or sea views. The north-facing aspect means calm water and long views across the channel to Koh Phangan, and the coconut groves behind the beach have kept development low and green, so Mae Nam still feels like a village with a beach rather than a beach with a village. Share your dates, group size, and whether you want a beachfront home, a sea-view estate, or a quiet base near the village, and we’ll send a curated shortlist of Mae Nam villas, with every rate, service charge and booking condition itemized in the written quotation.
