Promtsuk Buri is a wonderful resort in Thailand. It is located at Thongtakian Beach on Koh Samui island of Surat Thani. When I saw this place in the Internet I could not take my eyes of it. Promtsuk Buri offers the most peaceful and white sandy beaches. You can choose between garden court bungalow, seaview bungalow, beach front bungalow and mini delux seaview bungalow. It is the paradise on earth. The room had a big balcony with the teak wood beach chair, big bed, fridge, air condition, hot shower, satelite TV, make up desk, closet, mini bar, but especially I loved the en-suite bathroom with the open roof shower. Resort facilities are restaurant, internet, airport transfer, laundry, car park, safety box and tour booking. It is the ideal place for snorkeling and doing nothing, just relaxing all day long at the beach.
