Why go, and how to do it well

Tucked away in the Bo Put area of Koh Samui, this family-run operation combines a working soap factory with a retail shop, giving visitors a genuine look at how all-natural coconut-based soaps and beauty products are made from scratch. The entire range is handmade and crafted from natural ingredients, and the on-site shop stocks a wide variety of products that go well beyond soap alone — making it a worthwhile stop for those looking to bring home something locally made and meaningful.

One of the standout features is the soap-making demonstration and workshop, led by a knowledgeable staff member named Mike, who has been highlighted by multiple visitors for his expertise and warm approach. Whether dropping in to browse or signing up to learn the craft hands-on, guests tend to leave with a strong appreciation for the care and knowledge that goes into each product. The atmosphere is welcoming and unhurried, with staff happy to guide visitors through the range.

The shop is open seven days a week, with weekday and Saturday hours running from 08:00 to 19:00, while Sunday hours begin later at 12:00. Those keen to take part in a soap-making session would do well to contact the shop in advance via the official website to confirm workshop availability. A second retail location exists in the Lamai area for those staying on that side of the island.

Reviews from Google

These products are exceptional. We have used them for years. Normally I buy in the Lamai shop but today I visited the factory show which was very nice inside and a seemingly endless amount other products I have not seen before. You may think the prices can be a bit high but you find nothing else like this in Europe or elsewhere and without the nasty chemical we try to avoid. When you come to Samui you must visit here. Coconuts are part of samui’s culture.

Very nice shop with an amazing atmosphere. We also were present during the soap making demonstration, thanks Mike for the great explanation! It’s nice to see these kind of family runs businesses on koh samui. It’s a really special place!

This store is paradise, the staff is really nice and all the products are homemade and 100% natural. They also teach how to make soap, I really recommend coming here!
