Where is The Library?
When planning a Thailand itinerary Koh Samui is often at the top of the list for its fabulous beaches and quirky places to stay but if you’re visiting with kids you might want to check out this 10-day Thailand itinerary.
This book-themed hotel is right on Chaweng Beach 4km from the airport and not far from Koh Samui’s Big Buddha. Most visitors to Koh Samui are drawn by the beach.
Fortunately, The Library Koh Samui ticks this box too. The designer boutique resort is located right on Koh Samui’s Chaweng Beach.

Why is it special?
Well, The Library is ultra hip and quite unique.
Who would have thought a boutique beach hotel based on books would be so popular?
There’s also the novelty of swimming in a red pool.
The Red Pool is red because of its mosaic of orange, yellow and blood-red tiles.
Chaweng Beach
As the resort is compact you won’t have to go on a cross-country hike to get to the beach. Chaweng Beach is only a few steps away from the rooms and suites.
