    By request, this video gives you a full Koh Samui Hotel Tour of Melia, perhaps the nicest new beach resort on Koh Samui. It is located right on Choeng Mon Beach and is one of Thailand's coolest little areas.
    ** HOW TO GET 10% OFF MELIA ** My followers now get 10% off your stay at Melia Just contact them at Reservation.kohsamui@melia.com or through their website and tell them the code "RW4U" and they'll give you 10% off your next stay. Simple.
    I will tour you through the property and show you several room types and even show you the room we got and tell you how much we paid. If you are looking for places to stay in Koh Samui, this video and channel are for you.
    Keep in mind the prices we paid are probably much lower than normal due to the pandemic, but if you are in Thailand these days you too can get prices like these and I would highly recommend enjoying some domestic travel these days.
    ** This video is NOT sponsored in any way....we paid the going rate for our stay and did not ask for anything from the hotel - this is just me being Retired, Working for You **

    Wow! You're a total pro with that drone (panning in and out) and putting those videos together. I can't imagine how much time is involved in editing all the footage and combining it into such a professionally condensed video suitable for advertising the resort on prime time TV. Need to come out of retirement and start your own camera work business.

    Another great video Chris. Lot of fun but very informative. I’ve never visited Ko Samui on my visits to Thailand but will definitely do so when the borders open up again. That resort is certainly worth a visit. I like that owners are looking after their staff at this difficult time. Keep the videos coming. They are my ‘fix’ during this time. Tony from the UK
