The renowned Kimpton Kitalay Samui beachfront resort has recently launched a unique and enjoyable twist on Sunday brunches at their Boho Lifestyle Café. Introducing the Kimptonlicious Sunday Brunch!
This brunch is not just an ordinary one. It's an extraordinary epicurean journey you can experience on the first Sunday of every month. Each brunch has a distinct theme to ensure that the experience remains new and thrilling. Past events include: Bavarians on The Beach and The Kitalay Chocolate Factory: A Willy Wonka Inspired Brunch.

This turns the brunch into a special event that combines creativity and culinary excellence, offering a pleasant surprise for those who come back again.
This excitingly themed brunch is served from noon to 4 p.m. at an attractive price of THB1,900 per person. Guests are invited to immerse themselves in a luxurious feast that starts with premium seafood served fresh on ice. And that’s just the beginning.
