An exclusive five-bedroom hillside residence of around 2,000 m² within a managed retreat in the Bophut hills, entered over stepping stones across a water feature. A vaulted living-and-dining pavilion runs almost the full length of the villa behind a wraparound wall of glass, opening to a balcony above the garden and a 20-metre pool with a panoramic sea view. Fully staffed with a private chef.

Your own exclusive tropical getaway, this five-bedroom hillside residence sits within a managed retreat in the Bophut hills. Entering over large stepping stones across a water feature, you arrive in an impressive living and dining pavilion with an integrated kitchen — running almost the full length of the villa beneath a vaulted ceiling, with a wraparound wall of glass that opens onto the terrace and an incredible panoramic view. At one end is a tropical lounge with Thai artefacts, table lamps and deeply cushioned rattan sofas around a Smart TV, while a square dining table for ten sits beside the gourmet kitchen — top-of-the-range appliances, honey-coloured wooden units, chrome fittings and marble surfaces, with a central island bar and a built-in wine cooler. A balcony with a clear glass barrier runs along the outside of the room, all-weather chairs positioned to take in the garden and the 20-metre pool. Stairs on both sides of the balcony lead down to the lower level, where three of the five bedrooms face out across the garden, pool and views, connected by a covered walkway that doubles as a shaded terrace. All bedrooms have king-size beds, TVs, ample storage and private en-suites; the master suites open directly onto the pool terrace, each with a separate dressing area and an en-suite of twin washbasins, a rain shower and a terrazzo bathtub set by a window looking across the pool to the ocean. On one side of the pool, sunken stools rest beside a built-in bar within a covered sala that also houses a dining table and cushioned bench seats — ideal for lazy days, an alfresco feast or a small pool party. Fully staffed with a private chef, a short drive from Bophut village, Fisherman’s Village and Maenam Beach.
