Think palm-fringed beaches of powdery white sand, think vivid green paddy fields, think lush jungle and blue lagoons - and you have the essentials of a tropical hideaway. The friendly smiles of the Thai people, with their rich and tolerant culture, are the embodiment of these idyllic settings.
With 80 tropical islands in the Gulf of Thailand to choose from, we have focused our portfolio of villas in Thailand on the captivating island of Koh Samui. Mountain ridges run from east to west, flanked by luxuriantly forested hills, a seemingly endless expanse of rice plantations and rows of coconut palms. The perfect location for anyone seeking the serenity of unspoiled nature is to be found at Eden Rock Villa, poised upon a hillside where waterfalls spurt from the rocky crags. The island is girdled by superb beaches and fishing villages where the local catch is brought ashore. It is here, on Lipa Noi Beach, that sun worshippers looking for a tranquil spot will find the Baan Chao Lay Villa, while anyone with a penchant for water sports and a bohemian life-style will adore Baan Leelawadee Villa on Bophut Beach. For access to an evening scene with its own kind of buzz, we recommend the Bacaya Villa on Bang Rak Beach.
Lying at the edge of the Andaman Sea, off the west coast of southern Thailand, is the island everyone has heard of – Phuket. The ‘madding crowds’ long ago discovered this island, but there are still many parts of the incredibly beautiful coastline that remain virtually undiscovered. Our choice of escape from the rest of the world is the region of Phang Nga, just to the north and on the mainland. The Jivana Villas enjoy a wonderful beachfront setting in this tranquil spot. This strikingly beautiful bay with its laid-back atmosphere is ideally located for exploring the attractions of nearby Krabi and the temptations of Phuket. For those wishing to discover the beauty of the region, a short drive away you can discover the famous Ao Phang Nga, where the silken waters are punctuated by strange limestone karst rock formations and lined by mangroves.
