No no, not the Sala. I was talking about the Six Senses Hideaway Samui, it realy is a fantastic hotel. There are 3 villa types and the pool villa suites are beautifull. The main pool is huge, so one of the basic villas is fine as well. I would ask for the sunset side, as the view is better. Dining on the rocks is a must as is the spa. Breakfast can last all day, and as I said the cooking classes are great fun. Youu probably won't want to go out of the resort, but they do offer comp. transfers into town or can organise tours of the island.
Thailand is one of the safest countries in the world to try out new hotels. I tried the Library just after they opened and the service was most professionnal.
If in doubt, go for the Six Senses Hideaway, it is flawless.
