8 Bedroom Twin Seaview Villas SDV080B

The property is one private villa of 1,000 m², let as a single house and sleeping up to 16 guests. Air conditioning and a full kitchen are part of the house, so the group can cook in the villa itself.

Inside there is a desk, a closet, a clothes dryer, a TV with satellite and cable channels, a hair dryer and a coffee and tea maker. The villa is let as a whole, so the space is shared by one group only.

Among the main facilities are free parking, a hot tub, a gym and a kitchen, and the property also has a washer and coffee or tea making.

The staff speak English and Thai, and internet access is available. A desk or workspace is also provided, along with air conditioning, a hair dryer, toiletries, an iron and linens, while cable channels and a TV complete the set of in-house amenities.

Guests can use the washer and the gym, and the kitchen comes with coffee or tea making. Free parking is available for guests who arrive by car.

The villa is in Bo Phut, a former fishing village on Koh Samui that keeps the pace of an older harbour town, with old wooden shophouses along its streets. It is calmer than Chaweng, and the Sitting Buddha Viewpoint is only 750 m away, the closest sight to the villa.

Fisherman's Village, the old harbour quarter with a walking street of shops and cafés, is 2.3 km away, and Samui Water Park Pink Elephant is also close by for a day out with children. Maenam Beach, a long sandy stretch further along the coast, is 4.1 km away. Big Buddha, one of the island's best-known sights, is 5.4 km from the villa.

Samui Airport is on the island itself, so arriving by air is the simplest route. A day could start at the Sitting Buddha Viewpoint, continue through Fisherman's Village and the Bophut Food Market, and end with a swim at Maenam Beach. Families can add the water park to the programme, and Big Buddha, one of the island's best-known sights, makes a good addition for a longer day out. The old harbour streets of Bo Phut are a short walk from the villa's area of the island, good for an evening stroll.
