It appears that someone is extending a rather lovely compliment to you.....I say you are lovely or I say you are good looking....

Not sure what the work mooi means as my Afrikaans is a bit rusty.

The phrase in proper Afrikaans would read:

Ek sê, jy is lekker mooi!

To tell you the truth, "lekker" does not really make sense here. The phrase therefore means (without "lekker"):

I say, you are beautiful!

Some of the Koh Samui villas are set on peaceful hills adjoining sea. So, when a sea wave hits the big boulders below, you are actually able to experience some butterflies in your stomachs. Such is the experience of the exotic locales where these Samui villas are located. The villas are located in peaceful places, but not much far from action. You can anytime visit the flee market to buy exotic sea shells, or belts made from fish’s skin for you dear and near ones.
