Hi There!

Phuket and Samui are much more suitable for kids. Loads to do there without the Smut, or so much of it in any case! Not to mention much more beautiful too!

Le meridien Beach Resort is certainly a good one for kids. It has a renowned kids club.

have a look at http:///www.differentasia.com

They have a pretty good description of the islands and promote luxury & boutique hotels, many suitable for families. It's presented in a nice way with independent inspection reviews.

Hope this helps.
