Villa Keola

The whole villa is booked as a single house, with three bedrooms and three bathrooms for your group. Air conditioning, heating, satellite and cable television, linens, towels, a hair dryer, toiletries and a coffee or tea maker are part of the villa's equipment, along with a private entrance.

Because the house is let as a whole, guests have the private pool and the kitchen to themselves, and the villa sleeps up to six people.

The kitchen has a dishwasher, freezer, microwave, oven, refrigerator and stove, and the villa provides kitchen basics such as cookware, oils and condiments, along with coffee or tea.

Air conditioning, a washer, an iron, dishes and dining utensils, and a desk with workspace are part of the house itself, while keyless access, a crib or baby cot, a balcony or terrace and a garden or backyard are also available to guests.

Parking on the property is free, and internet access is available. Guests who prefer to cook for themselves have the dishwasher, oven, stove and dining utensils at hand, and the iron and washer cover everyday laundry needs during the stay.

Rawai is a fishing village at the southern end of Phuket, where life moves at a slower pace than in the busier resort areas along the coast and the harbour still shapes the rhythm of the day. Villa Keola stands in Soi Ban Na Tai, with the beach about 630 m away. Patong, with its nightlife, is about 12.5 km away.

Rawai Pier, 1.1 km away, is where boats leave for the islands, and the local fish market is busy in the morning. Nearby, Nai Harn Beach is a sheltered bay with calm water, and Wat Nai Harn, a Buddhist temple, is close to it. The Big Buddha, 5.6 km away, sits on a hilltop with views over the island. Since the main sights are spread across Phuket, a car or taxi is the easiest way to get around, and Phuket International Airport is 37.1 km away.

A good day can start at the fish market, continue with a swim at Nai Harn, and move on to Wat Chalong, the most important temple on Phuket, before ending at Promthep Cape, the island's southernmost point, for the sunset. Boat trips from Rawai Pier can be affected by rough seas during the monsoon months.
