After the storm. Samui had a lucky escape the storm turned and the islands were spared.But not unfortunately from the internet news hounds pushing for clicks by touting disaster! And worse using photos and videos not even from Samui. Yes some beach front restaurants lost there decking and the tide swells threw sand and debris over their fronts. But theres a reason beachfront outlets use decking and one of them is its easy to replace. Yes trees fell some on houses( mine included) So it happens every rainy season and in summer as well. Yes powerlines were cut amd people lost electric. Again rainy season can happen every few days. Most resorts and more and more villas have their own generators as electric has always been an issue on the island. The fact is it was a bad storm. Everything is running normally, all communications and services are full speed. All shops and restaurants are open and my guests are enjoying some of the best kite surfing conditions they can get.. The biggest issue now is cleaning the beaches from all the stuff washed ashore. A lot of which is fisherman's stuff oh and flip flops. plus fish ,sea cucumbers and the odd angry crab. So ignore the hype dont worry about the beaches( we'll get them cleaned in a day max 2) come and enjoy Samui, there's bound to be some special offers🙂. #samui #islandlife #southsamui #holidayhome (at Baan Suaan Serenity) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsRikqhF3fk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=c1tza6dsvvf1
