The Library

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.



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.


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.


'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.

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.
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.




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

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.
