Tropical Haven 4 Bedroom Pool Villa

The accommodation is a single villa of 500 m² with its own private pool and a garden view. It sleeps up to 13 guests, and its beds can be arranged in a choice of bed set-ups, which works well for a large group sharing the house.

The villa has four bedrooms and five bathrooms, and its facilities include a whirlpool bathtub, a shower, bathrobes, a hair dryer and an electric kettle.

The villa is equipped with a full kitchen, including dishes and dining utensils, a microwave, an oven, a refrigerator and a stove, and kitchen basics such as cookware, oils and condiments are provided. Coffee or tea and a BBQ grill are also available, and free parking is available on site. The washer is available for laundry, so guests can wash clothes without leaving the villa.

The villa also has air conditioning, a sound system, a TV, a private entrance and a balcony or terrace that adds outdoor space beyond the pool. Toiletries, body wash, towels, a hair dryer and a bathtub are provided in the bathroom, and the dining utensils are set out for every meal in the kitchen.

Bang Thao is a residential area of Phuket, away from the busy beach strips, and the villa works well for guests who prefer a private house to a hotel on a main road. Phuket International Airport is 11.7 km away, and the island's main roads link the area to its beaches and temples. Laguna Golf Phuket is nearby for those who play golf.

The longer trips from here go to the beaches and temples. Patong Beach, the busiest beach resort on the island, lies 11.3 km away, with Bangla Road and its nightlife in the same resort. Phuket FantaSea, a large cultural show venue, is 6.7 km away. Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is 17.8 km away and is one of Phuket's most revered Buddhist temples. The Big Buddha, a large white statue on a hilltop, is 19.9 km away.

A good day out could begin at Wat Chalong, continue to the Big Buddha on its hilltop, and end the evening at Patong Beach. A car or taxi is the practical way to reach each stop, since the sights are spread across the island. Bang Tao Night Market is close by, with food stalls and local goods in the evening.
