you are hi-jacking a thread-but well- the answer: toss a coin-both are OK for what you mention. BUT: it makes a BIG if if that is early or late=super hi season in dec-around Xmas is the very busiest of busy times in both- book now.
HKT is about the most expensive of Thai places and since the last year or 2 gets an awful lot of serious complaints about price-gourging, esp. the taxis/tuktuks. People not too friendly-has always been the case for HKT. Samui-all bisnis is done by Thai from far away, the gay scene looks decidedly smaller as in HKT and less- euh, regulated? Many still say: better to BYOB=bring your own boy, but thats just an opinion. If it is no issue form you to have that notorious ''gayfriendly (all HTLs are prossie-friendly), then simply take a pick from tripadvisor or whatever you find on agoda or asiarooms.
