RESORT Vs. VILLA RENTAL in Thailand - Price Comparison + Tours

Koh Samui, Thailand is now world famous because of The White Lotus. But rather than stay at the hotel where it was filmed (The Four Seasons)...I'm gonna give you 3 options that are cheaper AND better. I'll also do a full cost comparison and you might be surprised.
