Last week, I offered you the 40 best Alternative State Quarantine (ASQ) hotels in Bangkok (or, a way to spend two weeks in an incredible city and see exactly none of it). This week, we’re just starting to get an idea of which Koh Samui hotels will be available for Alternative Local State Quarantine (ALSQ). (Or, a way to spend two weeks on a beautiful island … and see exactly none of it). Details are sparse at the minute, but if you’re on my email list you’ll be sure to get updates as they’re announced.
So far, only ten Koh Samui ALSQ hotels have been announced, but I’ve read that over twenty have applied (so stay tuned!). To date, the majority are on or near Chaweng Noi and, for what it’s worth, I would WAY rather spend two weeks in any of these ALSQ hotels than in Bangkok. (Why? Many offer private pools and most have ocean view options).
