Living in Lamai, Koh Samui

No verified monthly homes live in Lamai right now — sign up below and we'll email you the moment one appears.

Lamai is Chaweng's calmer sibling: the island's second beach town with a proper high street, Sunday walking-street market, and a strong health-and-fitness scene (gyms, muay thai, saunas).

Long-stay value is better than Chaweng and the beach's south end is quiet enough to feel residential.

Who it suits

Fitness-focused long-stayers and couples who want beach-town convenience one notch quieter and cheaper than Chaweng.

Good to know

The hills behind Lamai hide most of the sea-view villa stock — sea view usually means a steep 5-minute ride to the beach.
