I would choose one or the other. ****et has been a major tourist destination for at least 30 years and is more on the debauchurous end, koh Samui is a much more recent "discovery" and started to really build up in the early 2000s.
****et is fairly large and has different areas with very different feels, some are backpacker oriented areas, others are more family oriented, some beaches are packed and some are relatively deserted. The last time i was in samui (8 years ago) it was more uniformly upscale all around the island, but still plenty of tshirt shops and other foundation touristy stuff. It was close clearly on the rise back then, depends who you ask re whether thats a good or a bad thing... better tourist infrastructure etc but no longer a "secret."
