The villa has a kitchen, a washer, an iron and linens, plus air conditioning, cable channels and a TV. The house also has a private entrance, keyless access, a closet and a desk workspace, and daily housekeeping is part of the stay.

A doorman and 24-hour security look after the property, and English and Thai are spoken by the staff. Free parking is available on site, internet access is available, and coffee or tea is also provided at the villa.

Bang Thao is a quiet area on Phuket island, and the villa sits a short walk from Bang Tao Beach, a long stretch of sand 600 m away where you can walk, swim or simply sit and watch the sea. The area is calmer than Patong, Phuket's busiest beach resort, which is 9.5 km away, so the villa suits a stay built around the sea and the surroundings rather than the nightlife.

Around the villa, the Bang-Tao Night Market is 700 m away and makes a handy place for an evening out. Further afield, Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong) is 16.8 km away, one of the best-known temples on the island, and Big Buddha Phuket, a large white Buddha statue on Nakkerd Hills, is 18.4 km away. Phuket International Airport is on the same island, and the road to the villa is straightforward from there, with taxis and private cars available on the main roads.

A day could start on Bang Tao Beach, continue with a visit to Big Buddha on Nakkerd Hills, and end with the temple at Wat Chalong in the afternoon. Phuket is joined to the mainland by a bridge, so the villa can be reached by road from the airport and from the island's main towns.
