One- and two-bedroom pool villas connect, to create a generously sized (460sq m) villa for up to nine adults and two children. Two private pools sit in Bill Bensley-landscaped gardens – both with swim-up entrances to the villa bedrooms¬ – and there’s a sunlounger-dotted hardwood deck and outdoor dining areas. Some bedrooms have swim out access to the pool, and all are beautifully outfitted with mod-Asian furnishings. Ensuites have modern egg-shaped bath tubs and twin sinks, and each villa has a full kitchen (with a stovetop, microwave, refrigerator, coffee machine, utensils, crockery and cutlery). There’s a Bose sound-system, LCD TV and free WiFi; and villa guests get special extras, including a flower garland on arrival, daily tropical fruit plate, cookies, daily afternoon tea, newspaper, and a traditional Loi Krathong floating-flower ceremony on one night.
