Been Samui 3x. Always stayed city night — friends say waste a day.

Overnight near Talat Kaset — cheap hotels, night market, morning Donsak ferry without panic. Rushing same-day after flight or train delays is how people miss boats. City is gateway not destination but practical.

Always overnight — morning ferry 3x smoother than afternoon scramble.

One night saved us after late flight — night market dinner, morning ferry calm.

Seatran joint ticket door-to-door ~4hr next morning — slept well.
