Beachside Villa 'Vanilla' - Stunning Sea Views and Breathtaking Sunsets

The truly unique 'Villa Vanilla' sets a new standard in the sought after Bayside area in the northern tip of Koh Samui.

The villa has more than 250 sqm of luxury space on three levels, tastefully designed elegance and outstanding sun terraces (130 sqm/1400 sqft) on three levels. With unobstructed ocean and sunset views, and only 150 meters to a superb sandy beach, it offers the ultimate holiday experience.

The SPACE
This incredible villa is expertly furnished in international style with a huge lounge/dining area leading out to the sun terraces, four large theme decorated en-suite bedrooms (three of them with direct access to spacious private terraces!)
All four bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms.

There are two sea-view en-suite bedrooms on the 3rd living level, which are perfect for relaxation whilst overlooking the crystal blue sea and the Island of Koh Phangan. A huge balcony connects these two bedrooms.

The third bedroom (also on the 3rd living level) is a quiet and comfortable space with stylish interior design. It has 2 single beds which can be put together. This bedroom has a beautiful stone garden/hill view.

The fourth en-suite bedroom (also ideal to accommodate guests who want to be more separated from the others: teenagers/elderly) is located on the ground floor (on garden/ street level). This bedroom has a king size bed, a big TV and a spacious terrace area with sea views.

LIVING ROOM, IN- AND OUTDOOR DINING, KITCHEN
Certainly the best place to spend the day is the open living room, dining room and a fully equipped kitchen, with a LARGE TERRACE and extra-size pool.
Here you can listen to music, hear the sea, have a wonderful lunch or dinner and cocktails by the open bar, while you enjoy the magnificent views and sunsets.

'Villa Vanilla' has state-of-the-art AV system throughout including Sonos music system and more entertainment than you’ll ever need, as well as a private table tennis board to use. The TV system has over 400 movies, which are updated monthly and a few hundred TV channels in English, French, German and Russian. It is a steaming device, you can get all the programs of the country you want, like UK, US etc. sport channels and on demand.

Beautiful Views from Elevated, Comfortable Villa
Overall, our stay in this villa was very nice. The view is certainly spectacular, and the walk to the beach was short (though a bit strenuous). But I have to agree with a previous review... we were not told in advance that we would have an additional charge at the conclusion of our stay for electricity usage. This came as a huge shock to us and resulted in an unexpected extra expense just to keep the place at a reasonably cool and comfortable level. Pretty much a low-class move on ownership's part. We were also lead to believe that we could walk to shops and restaurants. Completely false... unless you're OK with a 30+ minute walk up and down hills in the heat. And trust me, you'll find yourself miserable if you were faced with walking back to the villa in the dark. So do yourself a favor... rent a car (thankfully we did!). The on-site property management is quite nice and very helpful. The villa was clean and nicely furnished. The kitchen could certainly use a newer coffee machine and a few other items, but it pretty much met our needs. I can recommend staying in this villa, but only do so if you have a rental car.

Luxury apartment but slightly misleading in descriptions .
Stayed here with friends for our first week. lovely apartment but not quiet as we expected in a few areas of online descriptions . Firstly , it’s Quiet a distance from main areas a taxi ride each night at a cost of 400 baht each way if you are wanting to venture out to visit /see local areas with restaurants/ bar/ massage etc . there are two restaurants down the ‘steep’ hill from apartment, We tried one, was ok. you can order food in , which we did on arrival which was lovely and manager Jum was excellent at organising for us . However we hadn’t planned on staying in each night. Secondly, not quiet as the online pictures show the apartments outside area , whilst having lovely views of the small beach below leads you to believe that you have privacy , this is not so as you are actually over looked by at least 3 other apartments to the side and above you . Apartment being mainly glass you felt like you were being observed most of the time whilst eating inside or relaxing on the patio area. A big disappointment for us all was apparently at this time of the year the patio area only gets the sun for around 2/3 hours a day, the rest of the time it’s in the shade. The pool is really only a cooling off pool,, so we headed down to the beach This is smaller than depicted in the photos and mostly set out for the villas and hotel behind it. There are no sun beds for the public to hire and only a small stretch of beach for you to use as when we required if we could hire sunbeds we were told only for hotel guests . This area of the beach was kept lovely and clean but the other end was quiet dirty with rubbish. Finally , although the information regarding the apartment informs you that electricity is an ‘extra’ fee, we strongly felt that it should have been included in rental price initially, as after being informed by manager on arrival that we should keep use to a minimum otherwise we could expect a large fee at the end of our stay , we were slightly paranoid about our usage , not putting air con on when really we could have done with it etc. Maybe this is a ‘clever’ way of the owner’s highlighting people’s usage , but I think that if they were to have included their ‘ concerns ‘ in the welcome folder most people whom rent the apartment would be mindful in their use of the electricity. It certainly left us all ‘daily ‘ worrying that we’d Possibly over used It . ( not at all relaxing ) Final Mutual agreement was nice but not for us.

Paradise in Koh Samui
We had amazing time in Koh Samui. The property is stunning, and the concierge service offered with the condo is out of this world. They booked restaurants for us, ordered a car service any time we needed it, and also arranged for a masseuse to the condo everyday. We hope to return to this stunning condo. The view is out of this world, and the bedding is very comfortable. Great outdoor living space!

Lovely Villa With Stunning Views
The villa was everything we hoped for. The views are stunning and we spent many happy hours on the terrace overlooking the bay. The property is well managed and kept spotlessly clean by the management company. The managers are friendly and respond quickly to requests. The only reason we gave 4 stars instead of five was because of building work nearby which was a slight nuisance at times. Would recommend without hesitation.

De belles vacances au calme, la plage à moins de 5’ à pied avec un petit bar offrant boissons et restauration. Le tout proche des activités possibles sur Samui. La 4ème chambre est très belle, malgré un accès par le garage.

Luxuriöse Villa mit schönem Ausblick
Das sehr gepflegte und luxuriös ausgestattete Objekt liegt am Samrong Beach mit Blick auf die Bucht, das Six Senses Hotel und auf Koh Phangan. Die Einrichtung lässt nichts zu wünschen übrig, auch den Pool finden wir sehr schön. Die Reinigung und der Service vor Ort ist ausgezeichnet, das Personal sehr nett. Wir waren schon zum zweiten Mal da und würden auch erneut wieder hinfahren.

Beautiful view
Nous adorons ce lieux à Bohput et c’est la quatrième fois que nous y allons mais nous choisissons toujours une maison différente. Cette maison ci est bellle avec une vue imprenable sur la mer et les îles avoisinantes comme Koh Phangan, merveilleux!! Cette maison a 4 chambres mais nous étions déçus car la 4 ème chambre ( qui est grande et belle) on y accède par le garage 🙁. On doit descendre les étages passer par le garage pour y aller et cela devrait être dans votre descriptif!!! Quand on est dans la chambre on oublie ce passage obligatoire car la chambre est belle avec balcon et vue sur la mer. Idéal pour des ados qui seront séparés des parents. Les ustensiles de cuisine sont à changer, comme les poêles qui sont dans état lamentables. Mais en tout nous y abons passés de très bonnes vacances. Des quatre maisons où nous avons séjourné celle-ci avait la plus grande piscine!

Upea villa kauniilla paikalla
Villassa on neljä makuuhuonetta, joista kahdesta upea merinäköala. Siivous oli joka toinen päivä. Sateisille päiville löytyi viihdykkeeksi pingispöytä, iso tv ja videopelejä. Lähellä pari perusravintolaa, joissa toisessa biljardi. Vieressä ranta ja hierontapaikka. Taksin sain helposti tilattua ja sen tarvitsi moneen paikkaan, sillä villa on sen verran syrjässä. Rauhallinen, turvallinen alue. Yhteydenpito toimi loistavasti. Oma uima-alas oli mahtava ja terassialue viihtyisä.

Sehr schöne und gepflegte Villa
Wir haben schon in mehreren Villen gewohnt, diese war aber deutlich die schönste. Die Lage über der Samrong Bay ist hervorragend. Gestört hat uns der Baulärm, da direkt hinter der Villa ein Neubau entsteht. Der ist aber in absehbarer Zeit abgeschlossen. Trotzdem wäre es schön gewesen, das vorher zu wissen. Daher nur 4-Sterne bei Lage/Umgebung, sonst auch hier klare 5-Sterne. Die Villa ist stilvoll eingerichtet, alles so, wie man es auf den Fotos sieht. Die Einrichtung ist hochwertig, die Betten sind sehr bequem. Auch die Küche ist sehr umfangreich eingerichtet. Alles bestens. Sehr gut ist, dass man auf der Terrasse immer sonnige oder schattige Plätze hat. Der Pool ist ebenfalls super. Wer zur Samrong Bay möchte: nur ein kurzer Fussweg, lohnt sich ebenfalls. Keine Probleme beim check-in und check-out. Zur Reinigung kommen mehrere Servicekräfte, das geht sehr schnell und ist wirklich gut. Wir würden die Villa jederzeit wieder buchen.

Fantastic time with the familly
We just returned from our 8 night stay in Samui @ Villa Vanilla with our kids ages 15,12 & 6. It was just A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! We did not know what to expect in the reality, as usually photos are edited for the best content. But this time it was quite the opposite. The pictures are just not good enough to describe and show off the place. The moment you walk up the stairs to the first floor for the first time and look around with a wide grin on your face. The villa, the view, the pool with the outdoor sound system, everything is perfect. Waking up in the bedroom with the bay view...just WOW! Also great privacy. We stayed in some fancy hotels before and believe me, this place is not lacking anything vs the $$$$$ hotels worldwide. It's furnished and equipped just how we would have do it ourselves. Location is a bit off from the town, but scooters will get you anywhere and they are fun to drive there. The beach and the bay are very nice as well. Sandy, cleaned and maintained daily with very few people around, if you like it quiet. Two minutes walk from the villa or a 25 second scooter drive. Best villa in the area - will definitely come back. And big thanks to Jeff who just couldn't do enough to keep our stay even better. Double check if there is construction going around before you go, or it will be noisy.
