Ocean views, pools and open plan living make this a serene tropical hideaway

The name ‘Villa 24’ doesn’t do justice to this elegant, sensitively-designed property perched above the sea in the prestigious Samujana villa estate on Thailand’s Koh Samui.

Boasting the largest built space of any villa on the estate, this property provides eight bedrooms, multiple living spaces and an open-plan design that allows the rooms to flow around swimming pools, maximising the incredible views across the Gulf of Thailand.

Impeccably finished throughout, the villa exudes understated elegance

The villa is positioned and laid out to allow residents to enjoy both sunsets and sunrises over the ocean, with the spaces designed to cater to whatever is needed – some peaceful solitude, entertaining friends or simply sharing down time with the people who matter. Whatever the activity, the backdrop is Thailand’s natural beauty, an asset drawn on in the texture and tones of the materials and design.

The open-plan design makes this home ideal for a family

In addition to the eight bedrooms and multiple living spaces – not to mention two fully-equipped kitchens – the villa has additional facilities to cater to all tastes. Alongside a home cinema, gym and snooker room, there is also a steam room and wellness space, the latter ideal for the massages or treatments that Thailand has long been known for.

The air conditioned home gym is a good way to stay fit in tropical temperatures

It’s undeniable that the villa has a ‘resort’ vibe courtesy of the outdoor dining space, the infinity pool and jacuzzi. Indeed, the estate on which it sits offers villas to rent for holiday makers and can provide hotel-style management services. Villa 24 has staff rooms to allow hired help to live on site, as required.

Floor-to ceiling doors brings the views to your bed – does that make it harder to get up in the morning, or easier?

As would be expected, all bedrooms have access to their own bathrooms (there are ten scattered throughout the property) but the master bedroom boasts the most impressive ablutions facilities. The attached bathroom has a spa-like bath, a rain shower and a freestanding soaker tub. The property sleeps up to 16 (and you know you’ll attract a lot of guests!) and all bedrooms and bathrooms are finished to the highest standard.

Bathrooms are spacious with spa-like facilities
