May is ok for weather, Koh Samui is the most expensive place in Thailand and the trips are limited.

Big Damo Hi, The weather should be OK for you in May. Chawang is probably the most expensive place to stay, drink and eat as its about the biggest tourist area on the island.

As for trips you have the Ang Thong marine park which is very nice for the day. Depending on the dates you are here you may want to go to the full moon party on Koh Panyang or if you want to do some good snorkelling or learn to dive then a trip to Koh Tao is ideal :o

I thought, that Fisherman's Village would be the most expansive place for drink & eat without cheaper restaurants like Ninja or Khao San on Chaweng?

Take the one day island tours that are available from the hundreds of places around the island. They pick you up around 09:00, take you around in an open jeep to see the bizzare Grandmother & Grnadfather rocks, the Mummified Monk, Elephant show and riding, crocodile show, monkey show, Stone Garden, drive over the ,middle of the island which includes lunch with a great view, ending at Big Buddha. All for around 1500 baht. A great touristy thing to do and has things you won't see in the other places you've been in Thailand.

Ninja and Khao San are right on the beach road, there are cheap restaurants like Relax on the beach as well and who needs a bike for 100-300 meters from the beach road to Laem Din or the food market in Northern Chaweng
