Hillside Mansion, an authentic teakwood holiday villa in Ko Samui, is destined to become a symbol of Thai elegance on Ko Samui. The holiday villa was constructed in Ayuthaya, the former capital of ancient Siam, where traditional house-building techniques still survive. It was dismantled, transported, and then painstakingly re-assembled on Ko Samui. This Ko Samui villa is available for short term rental and occupies a spectacular location atop a hillside, and enjoys unsurpassed views across Samui’s northeastern coastline and the straits beyond, to the distant outer islands. In the central foreground of the view is the famous Big Buddha Temple.
On arrival, the first thing you will notice is a sense of grandeur and space as you drive through the imposing electronically controlled double gates, and along the stone driveway, which winds its way to the main entrance. This Ko Samui villa is set in 4800 square metres of lush private gardens that are home to over 100 varieties of tropical plants, trees, and flowers. An intricate network of ponds, streams, and waterfalls skirts the front garden, and the Ko Samui villa itself is accessed by an ornate covered walkway bridge that crosses a Lilly pond, leading to the carved main doors, which are adorned with paintings of Thai dancers.
A spacious living area with an abundance of comfortable furniture, complete with satellite TV and a CD player, and an adjacent formal dining area occupy the central sala, a traditional Thai pavilion. With a soaring Thai roof supported by 16 antique wood columns, this is a truly wonderful living space by day and night. Beyond the main sala, and covering its entire width, is a huge covered terrace that is ideal for casual dining and for simply relaxing. With a choice of easy chairs, daybeds, and tables and chairs for writing and games, the terrace offers spectacular and unobstructed 180-degree views of the mountains, the sea, the coastline, Big Buddha Temple, and the swimming pool.
A steward’s kitchen, just off the dining area, services all the living areas. To the right of the terrace there is a diving platform above the deepest part of the swimming pool. The spectacular free-form pool boasts spectacular views over the infinity edge, which magically appears to merge with the Gulf of Thailand.
On either side of the main sala are three smaller salas, containing luxurious bedrooms; two doubles and one twin, complete with four-poster beds. The bedrooms combine traditional Thai style with modern western comforts and facilities. The carved panels, doors, and genuine antique furniture are crafted from solid teak, and complimented by soft furnishings of the finest Thai silks and cottons. Both individual air-conditioning and ceiling fans are installed in all the bedrooms. The spacious en-suite bathrooms, clad in marble, slate, and natural stone, have separate imported bathtubs and shower units, in addition to unique open-air features and views. The master bedroom benefits from a large dressing room with floor to ceiling wardrobes, and features a Jacuzzi.
On the ground level there is a fourth double bedroom, with en-suite facilities and a more modern décor, which is ideal for children or younger members of the party. Also on the ground floor can be found the staff quarters, a laundry, and a fully equipped modern kitchen. Behind the scenes this holiday villa is equipped with state of the art electrical and security systems, a back-up generator, and efficient water storage facilities.
The resident manager is a professional Thai cooking teacher who will happily introduce you to the subtleties of this wonderful cuisine. You can even assist her in preparing your meals, or you can just leave it up to the team to prepare your chosen dishes. For that very special occasion we can arrange for your dinner to be accompanied by traditional Thai dancers and musicians. Samui is famous for its variety of spas, and your Thai holiday would not be complete without a Thai massage, which can be enjoyed on the terrace in the specially designed massage area.
