IF you spend enough time on our beautiful island, you will learn to appreciate the Rawai area.  It is perfect for both living or holidaying in a peaceful and tropical environment.  This villa, which is only 30 minutes from the airport, five minutes from Nai Harn beach, and 20 minutes to the Jungceylon shopping mall, would be ideal for anyone looking for a quite retreat, which is still close to the local attractions.

Walking into this home, which is designed on one level and set in an L-shape around a sparkling swimming pool, is like walking into a serene utopia.  The large entrance doors and high ornate wall covered in tropical planting provides security and privacy which ensures your time here will be special and private.

Inside, the living area has been laid out to provide easy access to all of the rooms and views over the swimming pool.  The fully-furnished entertainment area features ample seating for up to six people and is set around a large LCD TV and music surround system.  The handcrafted kitchen is finished in natural wood and comes with a granite benchtop and a host of quality appliances for your convenience.

Serving meals is made extra easy and the dining area comes complete with a large table and seating for six.  Enter the master bedroom and admire the bespoke bed made of wood from Chang Mai, which is complemented by matching floor to ceiling wardrobes.

The walls are dressed with various artworks from around the world, and the en-suite bathroom has been tastefully tiled throughout, with quality sanitary ware to complete the luxury look. The two twin bedrooms have been finished to the same high standards as the master bedroom, thus continuing the style and theme of the entire villa.

Outside, the large swimming pool and terrace are the highlight of this beautiful property.  You will spend endless hot summer days here enjoying the cool water having endless fun. The terrace also provides a welcome retreat from the blazing sun.  The villa sits on a land area of 460sqm and is a Chanote title.

The total living area is 270sqm, and for only 8,500,000 baht, this villa is great value for money and will provide great rental returns as well as a steady capital  appreciation growth.

THIS amazing contemporary style villa is set in a quite soi in tropical Rawai.  Rawai is known for its outstanding natural beauty, and it’s an ideal platform to showcase this stunning property. The living area is spread over three floors.

The multi-use fully air-conditioned ground floor has separate entrances from both the street and the car port, which has been cleverly fringed with a pond, floating steps, an outside shower and a tropical garden.  There is also a bedroom with separate bathroom on the ground floor, a laundry room and an open space, which would be ideal as an extra living room, an office or even a small gym. On the first floor, you start to appreciate the stunning sea views and the surrounding tropical environment.

The ultra modern high gloss kitchen has been expertly fitted out and finished in black granite, and comes with a handy counter which is idea for serving breakfast or afternoon snacks.  The living and dining areas are set side by side, allowing a natural path to the spacious outside terrace. The terrace is the perfect place for sunbathing, and to cool off, you can  dive straight into the huge infinity swimming pool.

You will wake up every morning to a spectacular view over Chalong Bay and the swimming pool below. An en-suite bathroom, fitted wardrobes and an open terrace top it off perfectly.  All the outside doors and windows are finished in weather resistant white UPVC and are tinted a soft green. The quality materials used throughout this villa are evident and the owners really took their time when choosing every item to ensure they all blend into each other.

All of the top-of-the-range furniture is included, and you could move in  right away. Utilities include wi-fi internet access, safe phase-3 electricity, and filtered well water.  It is only a short drive to Nai Harn beach, an unspoilt area which is a real favourite with locals. The new Tesco Lotus, Chalong Bay and The Big Buddha are also close by.

The villa has been carefully designed and lovingly created, and the clean white line theme throughout makes it crisp and visually stunning.  There is a total of 245 square metres of living area, and at only 11,900,000 baht, it represents great value for money. This villa can be registered freehold in your name and the land owned through a Thai entity, be it corporate or personal.  It’s a real stunning piece of work and the current owners are truly proud of.

COCONUT Island or Koh Maphrao, is how Phuket used to be 30 years ago according to the Village resort’s marketing manager, Jay Walker.  “This island is an idyllic world of its own, well away from the hassle and stress of everyday life,” he said.  “We have our resort and the local communities on the island, and that’s it.  “There are no motorbikes, no cars and no crowds.”

The resort, which is only a five-minute water taxi ride from Laem Hin pier on the east coast of Phuket, is now officially open with two, three and five-bedroom villas each with its own infinity pool and spectacular views over Phang Nga Bay.  The villas are available to either buy or rent. The Village management invited about 100 people to a Sunday Brunch earlier this month to showcase the resort’s finer points.

“We want Phuket residents and business people to know they are always welcome to come out and use our facilities,” said Mr Walker. “Many people live and work extremely hard on Phuket, and the Village is the perfect place for them to get away from the hustle and bustle and escape to a seaside hideaway where things move a little slower. “It’s the perfect place to chill out and relax.”
