Where Lanterns Meet the Sea: Loy Krathong at The Fair House Beach Resort and Hotel
Every November, when the full moon rises above Chaweng Noi Beach, Koh Samui glows with gentle light and a sense of togetherness. Loy Krathong, one of Thailand’s most graceful and romantic Thai festivals, celebrates the connection between people, nature, and gratitude. At The Fair House Beach Resort and Hotel, guests are invited to join this lantern festival in Samui, a magical evening where tradition meets tropical serenity.
As the sun sets and the tide turns calm, the beachfront begins to shimmer with candlelight. The evening opens with a krathong-making workshop, where guests can craft their own floating offerings from banana leaves, flowers, and candles. Guided by the resort’s friendly staff, the experience invites everyone to reflect on gratitude and renewal, creating a personal connection with this timeless cultural celebration.
As night gently deepens, soft live music fills the air while the scent of tropical blossoms drifts through the breeze. Guests are then welcomed to enjoy a traditional Khantoke dinner, featuring authentic Thai dishes prepared with care and local ingredients. Each plate reflects the island’s culinary heritage and pairs beautifully with the tranquil beachfront setting.
