W T-Time Luxurious Afternoon Tea

W T-Time at W Koh Samui offers a modern, luxurious twist on the traditional afternoon tea, set against the stunning natural backdrop of this five-star beachfront resort. Hosted at the iconic Woobar or The Kitchen Table, guests are invited to indulge in a carefully curated selection of sweet and savoury bites, with panoramic views over the northern Gulf of Thailand and lush resort grounds.

Ambiance and Setting

The atmosphere at W Koh Samui’s afternoon tea is both chic and relaxed, designed to deliver a sense of escapism and sophistication. Woobar, perched above the sand with sweeping sea views, features bold, playful design, comfortable lounge seating, and a vibrant soundscape curated by in-house DJs, especially as sunset approaches. The Kitchen Table, by contrast, offers airy indoor and semi-outdoor seating, stylish contemporary décor, and verdant vistas over the resort gardens and ocean.

Whether you choose to sit in the lively, airy Woobar or the serene comfort of The Kitchen Table, you’ll experience signature W hospitality, renowned for its attention to detail and personalized service.

Culinary Experience

W T-Time is known for its artistic presentation and inventive menu, departing from traditional scones and cucumber sandwiches in favour of handcrafted pastries, mini burgers or sandwiches, tropical-inspired delights, and elaborate desserts—often with playful elements and bursts of coulor. The set includes both savoury finger foods and sweet creations, paired with a selection of specialty teas, quality coffees, or even tailored cocktails. For those looking to elevate the experience, there are options to add a bottle of Prosecco or Champagne.

Dietary Needs

Vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options are available with advance notice, ensuring guests with special dietary requirements are well catered for.
