Brief Overview
Code Samui is a multi-award-winning, designer residential project (operated as a luxury condotel) located on the tropical palm-fringed coast of Bang Por, Koh Samui. Known for its sleek architectural lines and unparalleled ocean views, the development offers 40 oversized, beautifully furnished suites and an exclusive five-bedroom villa.

Project Details
The development is founded on a philosophy of "Architecturally Driven Luxury," winning "Best Interior Design in South East Asia" at the International Property Awards. The project comprises 40 master suites across four floors, designed with a versatile open-plan layout. A signature design feature is the frosted glass retractable walls, allowing residents to easily convert their space from a one-bedroom apartment to a chic, expansive studio.

Every unit is meticulously oriented to face the Gulf of Thailand, offering panoramic vistas of neighboring Koh Phangan and Koh Tao from private terraces. As a fully managed property, Code provides five-star international standard amenities, making it a "turnkey" asset for owners.
