Overview

EDITOR’S INDEPENDENT REVIEW:Zazen Boutique Resort & Spa lies at the quiet west end of Samui's Bophut Beach. A small, elegant resort with fine design elements drawn from Thai and other inspirations, Zazen is the culmination of its Thai owner's passion. The 26 rooms and public buildings are built into lush tropical gardens and green lawns, with verandas enjoying either beach or garden views. There is a spa, two restaurants, beach bar, health club and fitness area plus massage in cool -salas- on the beach. The swimming pool is rather small, but beautifully enclosed with tropical foliage, where it offers a shallow pool for toddlers.

The outstanding feature of Zazen is undoubtedly the subtle manner in which design elements from traditional Asia, the colonial era and even old Europe have been blended into a cool, tropical melange that is distinctly its own. All buildings are eased into the surrounding tropical foliage, where elements of Balinese and Islamic traditions intermingle with those of old Siam and Europe to create a distinct version of the new Tropical Asian style.

The ocean view rooms on Zazen’s beachfront certainly enjoy the prime location, while another coterie of luxury bungalows surrounds an especially private garden hidden at the back. A waterway with a ‘waterfall gate’ runs between the two. Each location has its own advantages. As an alternative to air-conditioning, all rooms have insect screens, windows that open and fans, allowing those who wish to sleep with the natural breezes to do so in comfort.

The main Zazen Restaurant directly overlooks the beach, and has a casual, breezy ambience that provides relaxation through the heat of the day. Sun lounges and massage salas wait on the sand, while the wall between beach and resort – generally a negative attribute in a beachfront resort – has seen clever imagination infuse it with shady alcoves into which couples can retire for privacy or fun. What might be an ugly wall in an ordinary resort is transformed into colourful, fun feature at Zazen.

The evening surprise at Zazen is the elegant Le Salon de Ti restaurant. This white table cloth abode rides above the beach terrace, giving it elevated ocean views. The decor is decidedly chic, employing chandeliers, flowing curtains and Louis XVI style furniture to imbue a romantic, black-tie charm of the kind that is not often seen on Koh Samui.

The west end of Bophut Beach is relatively quiet, with the road far behind. The beach is quite pretty, if narrow. The sand runs down quite a steep angle into water that becomes relatively deep, giving it some of the best swimming conditions on Samui.

This especially creative little resort was named Thailand’s No 1 Beautiful Boutique Beachfront Resort in the 2015 Thailand Beachfront Awards.
