My family and I are planning to visit Koh Samui for a week, and I'm concerned about the sand flies. We'll be spending a lot of time at the beach, and I want to make sure we don't get bitten too much.

Questions in Koh Samui
I've been exploring Koh Samui for the past few days and one thing that really shocked me is the amount of trash everywhere. I understand that a lot of the trash on beaches gets washed ashore, but why is there so much garbage in the ocean to begin with? You can't even take a boat to another island without constantly passing plastic bottles and bags floating around. And it's not just the ocean. Even on hiking trails up in the hills, there's trash almost everywhere you look. It's honestly heartbreaking because the island has such beautiful nature.
I've been wanting to bring my parents and sister to Thailand for a luxury vacation, but the prices for villas in Koh Samui are jaw-dropping, with some going over 100,000 baht per night. I'm wondering if anyone is actually paying these prices or if it's just the 'white lotus effect'.
I'm spending one night in Koh Samui and want to be in Chaweng for the nightlife. I've narrowed it down to these 4: Ark Bar Beach Resort, Elephant Beach Club, LOVE Beach, and Lub d Samui. Has anyone stayed at any of these, and which would you pick for that night?
I'm a remote worker based in Koh Samui and I'm looking for a premium laundry service in Sriracha for myself. I've searched and found self-service washing machines but no shops that offer the service for me. I'm looking for something like Xin Chai Hua in Bangkok, where they wash and dry my clothes for me.
I'm having trouble finding a place with decent AC in Koh Samui. Most rentals I've seen have tiny units that can't keep up with the heat, even in expensive places with private pools. I offered to pay extra to install a bigger unit in one place, but the owner refused. This is really frustrating for me.
I'm heading to Koh Samui and I've got gifts for family and friends, so I need to purchase extra luggage. The airport says only one checked bag is allowed, but I'll have two. Do I just pay extra for the second one?
I've been in Thailand for a while in Bangkok and Chiang Mai, but I feel a real calling for the island life now. I spent 10 lovely days on Koh Samui and haven’t felt the same since returning home. I miss the beach, the views, the clean air, the slow pace of life. I already have my eye on a beautiful hillside villa when my current lease ends.
We are a couple traveling to Koh Samui for the first time. We're budget travelers who like to explore food, culture, and shopping. We're looking for a budget to slight premium stay. What are our best options for areas to stay in?
Planning a trip to Koh Samui at the end of December and early January, concerned about rain.
