6. Koh Kood

Is this the next Koh Samui? The Trat islands are emerging as Thailand's new luxury outpost. Inaccessible for many years because of tensions with neighboring Cambodia and a poor transportation infrastructure, islands like Koh Kood are starting to draw venturesome paradise seekers, thanks in part to new direct flights to the port city of Trat. The recent opening of Soneva Kiri, a 42-villa suite retreat by the Six Senses brand (www.sixsenses.com/Soneva-Kiri), definitely ratchets up the high-end quotient on this Robinson Crusoe-like island. Coming soon: X2 Koh Kood (www.x2resorts.com), a designer eco-resort with 14 pool villas. — Gisela Williams

So happy of having been on Koh Kood many times in the last 16 years.It truly is/was a tropical paradise.

After reading the previous post I think it is just a question of time until it will be spoilt out of greed and ignorance like so many other places in Thailand.
