The Library Project is a new conceptual resort located in the heart of Chaweng Beach, Ko Samui. Our concept is to divide space equally between outdoor and indoor in both horizontal and vertical way. This idea was stemmed from simple concept that when holiday, people prefer to spend more time out in the open rather than staying in an air-conditioned box .

There are only 26 units of accommodation within 4 Rais of land consisting of 13 Studio type and 13 Suites. Total area of each unit is 68.50 sq.m for Studio and 76.50 sq.m for Suite. Every room has a chance to get close to nature of tropical garden and glimpse of sea views

Period of the stay : Feb 14, 2009
About the hotel:
Fantastic design with lots of really clever and eye catching features. A little oasis in the midst of bustling Chaweng. The rooms were terrific, although it was a shame that the storage space for clothes was so limited and that there were no bedside lights- although these are small points. The pool \ bean beds\ were fantastic, the laptop in the room a real plus, and the bar by the beach marvellous, not to mention eye catching. Food in the restaurant is terrific althoug, compared to other Chaweng restaurants, probably a little on the expensive side.
About the reservation service:
Excellent and hassle free. Everything worked according to plan.

About the hotel:
The Library is a very stylized and minimalist oasis in the madness of Chaweng Beach. It s ideal if you are looking for a very lowkey escape with very very close mayhem nearby. I loved my stay .. A few minor complaints include that the operator was not particularly helpful in connecting a call to room service or to the spa. On the plus side, this hotel is so unique and each room has so many great amenties.

The library is a masterpiece of design in every detail. Its also a lovely hotel to stay at, in a great location.
About the reservation service:
Booking system works well, except that emails from sawadee.com tend to get identified as spam, so I was initially losing mine: you may need to tell your spam filter to accept emails from them.

About the hotel:
Overall hotel is great. Rooms and pool/beach areas are first class and provide the luxury resort experience we were hoping for. Breakfast was great until they changed to buffet style part way through our stay and was only average thereafter. Hotel does not do the little things you may expect in this price range such as providing cold towels through the day so if this bothers you you may be best to look elsewhere. We really enjoyed our stay however and would recommend the hotel provided you are prepared to part with some serious cash.
About the reservation service:
Very easy and no problems again. Always use Sawadee for Thailand trips.

The Library Project is a new conceptual resort located in the heart of Chaweng Beach, Ko Samui. The project was originated by Kasemtham Sornsong, a land owner, to develop an inherited piece of land to be more efficient as well as preserve existing nature as much as possible.
img img img
With his passionate in hospitality industry, proven by a success of his first Spa, Four Seasons Tropical Spa, together with his strong intention to start up his own resort to fulfil his dream. Consequently, after the Spa has reached to a stable stage, he teamed up with his consultants establishing the project.
img

The piece of land is approx. 4 Rai or 6,400 square metres with 50-metre beachfront area. Apart from an idea to preserve existing nature on the site, the project was inspired by the basic way of life and our belief that 'the real happiness is not complicated at all'.

At every beach destination, you may notice that number of tourists/travelers lie down on the beach, sun-bathing, reading their books or you will see pocket books in their beach bags or on the mattresses. That behavior is so simple, easy-going and giving a feeling of free and relaxation. These activities are our inspiration and become our ideal concept to build a smart-relaxing place where guests can indulge in a very unique atmosphere to actualize their holiday experience. And that's how The Library; came into our mind.
img img img
'An Exotic Smart Concept' is a conclusion of our project design. Semi-minimalist architecture is our solution as it provides a very simple architecture and interior which has a balance with surrounding nature. To complement with architecture style, a smart interactive between staff and guests is added up to ensure that the right combination of both facilities and staff will create a perfect blend of the project.img

As for atmosphere within the Project, we set a tone of feeling to be a cool smart-relaxing place with attractive appearance and interesting theme. Green from grass in our garden decorated with art pieces and sculptures will be key element for our landscape. White theme of the building by the beach, a vivid red swimming pool overlooking to the sea and grey tone of the Restaurant - these are visualized overview concept of the Project.
img img Highlight of the project is 'The Library Building' located by the beach named itself after the project's title. The White building with high huge ceiling equipped with glass window pane all around will enrich purity, serenity and peace.

The Library Building consists of three box-style units adjoining together where the middle box is an open-air serving as a mini-cafe.

The other two boxes are the huge library for not only books but also other entertainment media such as music CD, movie DVD.
In addition, there will be a small corner for internet access with broadband connection. Guests will enjoy sipping a cup of coffee, writing e-mail, listening to music with sea views.


img

Our concept is to divide space equally between outdoor and indoor in both horizontal and vertical way. This idea was stemmed from simple concept that when holiday, people prefer to spend more time out in the open rather than staying in an air-conditioned box. Consequently, each building unit will be built in a box style by emphasizing in increasing efficiency of space utilization vertically and horizontally. We provide more outdoor and open-air space in order to meet guests'preference.

There are only 26 units of accommodation within 4 Rais of land consisting of 13 Studio type and 13 Suites. Total area of each unit is 68.50 sq.m for Studio and 76.50 sq.m for Suite. Every room has a chance to get close to nature of tropical garden and glimpse of sea views.

has been assigned on the ground floor to enhance tropical feel and touch. There is one master bedroom of 25 sq.m., an open-air living area of 20 sq.m. equipped with wooden shutter to allow sea breeze and wind to freely blow into this area. A personal computer set with broadband connection is provided on a writing table in living area. Whist a bathroom area is approximately 19 sq.m. featured a Jacuzzi , rain shower and dressing area. In front of each Suite, outdoor mattresses are set aside serving as sun loungers for guests to enjoy sun-bathing and reading during the day.

The Suite type is more suitable for guests who prefer to stay close to the earth and require suitable space to read and write during their stay.

is situated on the upper floor of each accommodation unit. Total area is divided into three area i.e. master bedroom with living corner, 15 sq.m. of balcony , and bathroom with dressing area. Lively tone of colors of fabric works in our interior design aimed to enhance the ambience pleasure. We believe that young couples or honeymooners will feel relax and cozy with this room type.

Each room can enjoy a glimpse of sea view as well as tropical garden and a shade of high huge old trees.

Red tone of Italian mosaic will be placed for a 20.0 x 12.0 metre pool situated between The Library Building and The Restaurant along the 50-metre beachfront. Surrounding space at the pool area is wooden deck with a suitable number of sun loungers scattered around.


img  Drop-off area / Greeting area
Luckily that existing nature assist us in designing the building. Two adjoining units are therefore carefully designed to embrace a group of high huge old trees. This open-air area is served as a drop-off area to greet and meet guests upon arrival and departure. 

Guests will feel refresh by tropical touch when they walk into this area whilst cool and chilled-out music and our team will keep them company. Our Guest Service Agent team will give you a warm welcome and farewell as well as assist you in arranging daily activities and providing you information.

The restaurant will be starting from freshly made breakfast, a light to casual lunch whilst dinner will be predominantly Western and Thai cuisines. Special theme night will be arranged from time to time subject to fresh ingredient available in each season.
