Hi I have been to Thailand many times but never to Samui.
Today we booked 14 nights from 30th of May and plan to have 3 nights in Bkk then night sleeper/ferry combo to Samui,3 nights in Al,s huts on Chewang,3 nights Salad hut on Phangang, 1 more night in Samui,night sleeper back to BKK then 1 night in BKK before flying out.
We are in our mid 40's,dont mind a bit of party noise (Well in Thailand anyway) and hate spending big on accomodation and food.
We do short trips to Thailand at least 3 time a year but usually do Patt,Samet,Chang,BKK (phuket once

Our only package holiday). And over recent years have used Sawadee.com to book accomodation as i find it easy to book this side due to limited time when we get there.
Any thoughts,suggestions would be apreciated .
