The main house’s special roof design allows it to stay cool in summer, even without air conditioning. Not to fear, though, both houses are amply fitted with climate control systems. The master bedroom is spacious, and uses the natural granite rock of the hill along the length of the back wall. It has a study area, a walk-in closet and a master en suite.

Windows run along the front wall to take advantage of the view and the many mature tropical trees, with a section of sliding glass doors opening onto a balcony. The kitchen is again fully equipped with a large fridge, oven, gas and electric combined range. There is a clothes washing area and washing machine. On this same first level is a comfortable guest room with a double bed, hanging closets, and two guest bathrooms. The mezzanine, located on the top level, has a study, which is easily converted into an additional sleeping area.

The guest house, secluded and self-contained from the main house, is composed of three tiered levels: the kitchen, dining area, and balcony; the living room and garden bathroom; and the master bedroom and walk in closet.

Additionally, under the Guest House there is a separate bedroom suite complete with a small kitchen and fridge and a washing machine.

It’s within a three-minute drive of the beautiful golden sands of Laem Set beach and the popular Kamalaya wellness centre and spa resort, and 10 minutes from local restaurants, attractions and boats to the neighbouring islands of Koh Tan and Koh Madsum. Samui international airport is 20 kilometres to the north and most of Samui/s attractions are within a 40-minute drive of the villa.
