Ammatara Pura is loftily located on unspoiled Lamai Beach on the South East coast of the idyllic island of Koh Samui, famously known as the “Emerald Island” due to its crystal clear sea water which resembles an emerald. The Island’s historic local culture is still very much alive here today owing its preservation to the knowledge of its community, many of whom still work in age old industries such as fishing and the coconut plantations.
