Open for breakfast and dinner, Rhoy Rhoy! serves unpretentious Thai cuisine with a courtyard featuring beautiful sea views. This includes an Exclusive Wellbeing Package (3 nights) with a 10% discount off our Best Available Rate for a stay in a Wellbeing Pool Villa, plus unique inclusions. Digital workers, meanwhile, will find a dedicated 24-hour co-working space featuring functional furniture and multiple power outlets just off the lobby.

After multiple phases of innovative remodelling and refurbishment while staying true to the philosophy of ‘Natural to the Core’, Garrya Tongsai Bay Samui joins Garrya Huzhou Lucun and Garrya Xi’an Lintong in China, as well as Garrya Nijo Castle Kyoto in Japan.

Guests can explore local shops, food stalls, restaurants and bars at Fisherman’s Village and the nearby Chaweng Beach. At the same time, the brand’s signature sustainability-focused experiences will help guests discover local ecosystems, with island-hopping expeditions to Mu Koh Ang Thong National Marine Park – a pristine archipelago of 42 small islands, hidden caves, limestone cliffs and lagoons; day trips to the islands of Koh Taen and Koh Matsum for snorkelling amid the coral reefs and relaxation on deserted beaches; and thrilling jungle hikes to the spectacular Na Muang Waterfalls.
