	December 2005 Dear Guenther and all Staff Many thanks for the most wonderful beach wedding and holiday we could imagine. You truly made Big John our home-away-from-home. My family all had a wonderful time and Mr Ghun (please correct my spelling) was the most patient, understanding, helpful, friendly wedding planner in the world!! Words cannot express my gratitude to him. Gai (again please correct my spelling) was the most lovely, vivacious waitress I have ever come across and became a big (but little!!) Thai sister to all of my friends. Thanks again for making our experience so very special. Janet & Casper Heunis. UK now Australia
	December 2005 Hei til alle nordmenn og andre skandinaver det måtte angå ! Vi kom til Big John på Ko Samui lille julaften nå sist for å feire jul under annen himmel enn vanlig. Etter en varm mottakelse kunne vi nyte en avslappende og fin uke med nydelig mat, fin julemiddag og fest og virkelig slappe og glede oss over stor gjestfrihet på Big John. Vi takker for oss, kommer gjerne igjen og legger ved et bilde av oss i husken nede ved den flotte stranden ! Beste hilsener fra Lena og Torbjørn Bergesen
	December 2005 HAPPY NEW YEAR! I am sending this at midnight Sydney Time. John and I made it safely back home to Sydney. A big, BIG, thank you to you and all the Big John staff for the wonderful organizational skills, generosity and good will demonstrated to ourselves, our family and friends over the last week. In particular, yourself, Mr Kan, the world's best wedding planner, who's patience, thoroughness, sincerity and genuine concern throughout our stay made so many stressful situations just melt away, Gae the evening restaurant hostess extraordinaire, who made everyone feel so welcome that part of everyday pleasure became seeing her each evening. I very much appreciate in particular, the special care and concern shown to my mother, Anne Hogg, when it became necessary for her to travel to the hospital (at 11.00pm the night before the Wedding). The attention paid to us by all staff throughout our stay was exceptional and made us feel as if we were your only guests. Thank you again for everything. Love and best wishes for a very happy and stress free 2006 Alison Masters
	Oktober 2005 Vielen Dank an Guenther und die gesamte Mannschaft vom Big John! Unsere buddhistische Hochzeit, die ihr fuer uns organisiert habt, hat unsere Erwartungen noch uebertroffen!!! Wir werden diesen Tag, als auch die gesamte Woche bei euch im Big John, nie vergessen! Ihr habt uns beraten, uns ein wenig von der Aufregung genommen, und unseren Tag perfekt gestaltet! Wir kommen wieder! Martin & Claudia
	August 2005 This was probably the best holiday we as a family have ever had! The service at Big John was second to none, the rooms were impeccable, the food was superb and great value too. The owners/managers were friendly and just everyone on the staff made our stay great. We liked it so much we are planning to return this august for another 3 weeks. The children were catered for from our 1 year old up to our 8 year old who spent most of every evening on stage with the dancers. Thank you so much for a holiday of a lifetime. Until we return............................ Andy Langford United Kingdom
	August 2005 Dear Guenther and Staff, thank you so much for that wonderful beach wedding at your resort. It was simply gorgeous! The resort and the beach is so beautiful! We had such a great time! I can truly recommend Big John Samui Resort to everyone! Greetings from Germany and all the best for your future, Stephanie & Maik.
	August 2005 Lieber Guenther, Nochmal herzlichen Dank für die wundervolle Strand - Hochzeit in Ihrem Resort. Es war einfach traumhaft für uns. Das werden wir nie vergessen. Es war einfach wunderschön. Alle waren absolut begeistert als sie unsere Bilder sahen und wären am liebsten auch gleich zu Ihnen geflogen und hätten gern geheiratet. Auf jeden Fall würden wir uns nicht wundern, wenn in Zukunft doch einmal jemand aus unserer Familie für eine Heirat oder einen Urlaub bei Ihnen vorbeikommt. Wir werden Ihr Big John Resort auf jeden Fall wärmstens empfehlen!! Wir danken Ihnen und all Ihren Mitarbeitern nochmal von ganzem Herzen für diesen wunderschönen Hochzeitstag und besonders auch für den wundervollen Aufenthalt in Ihrem Resort. Wir wünschen Ihnen weiterhin viel Erfolg und alles erdenklich Gute. Mit herzlichen Grüßen, Stephanie und Maik Wagner.
	July 2005 Thank you for some wonderful days at Big John Resort. Our family, to adults and three children, stayed at your resort two times during the holiday at Koh Samui. We also stayed in an other resort some days, but we found that boring. The bungalows, the restaurant, the entertainment and the service was excellent. Martin Eikeland, Norway
De fant sitt paradis DET GODE LIV: - Bedre kan vi ikke ha det, synes Sissel Wesenlund og Bjørn Egil Eide. De har funnet sitt paradis vest på Koh Samui	February 2005 Til vinteren blir det tredje året de «unge» pensjonistene tar to-tre måneder på stranden på øya Koh Samui. Både Sissel Wesenlund og Bjørn Egil Eide forlot NRK med pensjonsordningen AFP da de var i begynnelsen av sekstiårene. På Big John Resort på Koh Samui driver thailenderen Preeyapa Pratihan - Meaw blant venner - et feriesenter med tretti bungalower på ett og to rom, med og uten kjøkken. Og har egen kilometerlang praktfull sandstrand for sine gjester på vestsiden av øya. Og om du ønsker, står frokosten på bordet under palmene når du kryper ut av sengen. For her er det hotellservice. Sist vinter bodde Wesenlund og Eide i bungalowen nærmest stranden i tre måneder, og den er bestilt for nye tre måneder kommende vinter. Ved juletider drar vi ned igjen, det skal bli herlig. Vi er blitt kjent med folk her, de tar vare på oss. Thailand kalles «smilets land», det lever de opp til, sier Sissel og Bjørn Egil. Blir det for kjedelig på stranden, koster det ikke mange hundrelappene å fly til Bangkok. Der kan de tilbringe noen dager med å shoppe. Klær, sko, silke, her er det mye som er langt billigere enn hjemme. Det har hendt at vi har måttet sende en del hjem med båt! ler de
	Hi Guenther Arrived back in Scotland safe and well yesterday, our luggage should be on its way think its still in Dubai! Just like to thank you and all the staff for a wonderful stay at Big Johns, our wedding day was perfect we could not have asked for anything more and the setting was astounding. We will never forget it. Lipa Noi is a wonderful little pocket of Koh Samui, the bungalows were lovely, the food at Big John was excellent as was the service throughout, we made some wonderful friends. We have our wedding reception in the highlands on Saturday and we are looking forward to showing everyone the video and photos of our day. Happy New Year and we will see you all again in the future. Thank you for the memories Louise and Bob Spence
