Jigsaw Cafe & Resort

Overview

Half café, half resort: Jigsaw serves local food from its own kitchen and puts its rooms a few steps from the shore at Lipa Noi. From the grounds you can walk straight onto a quiet stretch of beach reserved for the property.

Between the rooms and the water are tropical gardens and a large sun terrace, and private parking is free, which helps on a coast where most people get around by car or scooter.

Highlights

• Direct access to a private beach area
• On-site café serving local dishes
• Tropical gardens and sun terrace
• Free private parking

Location

The resort is in Ban Na We on Lipa Noi, a long, calm bay on Samui's west coast that faces the sunset. The village is quiet, with Nathon a short drive north. No street address appears in the old listing.

Good to know

• The west coast has few big-name restaurants or bars; the on-site café helps.
• Expect a long transfer from the airport on the other side of the island.
