Nestled in the heart of Bophut's Fisherman's Village
is one of the most quaint, comfortable, and reasonably priced beachfront
resorts on Samui. 'The Lodge' has long been a well-kept secret among
regular travellers to Samui. It's always been considered the best,
most convenient, and least stressful beachfront accommodation available.
Its creator David Hill
originally conceived 'The Lodge' after he visited the Ancient City
of Ban Boran in Bangkok and saw a reproduction of an old style up
country Thai/Chinese 'shophouse'. He decided that this style would
be perfect for his property on the beach in Bophut, and it was!

'The Lodge' is a simple, elegant affair. Limited
to ten luxury rooms, 'The Lodge' fits perfectly into the enchanting
Fisherman's Village surroundings. With it's trademark hardwood floors
and ceilings, fine art and sea views. Each room has a warm, comfortable
feel.
'The Lodge' is an easy walk to all the shops and great restaurants
found in the village..
The Fisherman's Village has a three-day street festival,
held in late August, with all but pedestrian traffic removed from
the main village road. Dozens of live performances, from Folk Music,
to opulent Classical Thai dancers, to hot Rock & Blues Bands,
keep the mellow crowds entertained. Restaurants from all across
the island open foodstalls with all kinds of wildly tasty Thai,
Asian, Seafood, and European fare available. It's a happy, colourful
scene. 'The Lodge' guests tell us they love it.
