Villa 73

Situated in an exclusive hill side community overlooking Choeng Mon Bay, the villa is only a short walk from Choeng Mon beach, local shops and restaurants. It is 10 minutes by car to the island's airport, and 30 minutes to the Santiburi golf and country club. Fascinating "Fisherman's Village" at Bophut and the main tourist centre of Chaweng, with its numerous restaurants, shops and lively entertainment, are also just a few minutes' drive away.

The villa's decor is wonderfully cool and neutral, and natural materials have been used to full effect. It benefits from full air conditioning in the open plan living areas and all bedrooms, ceiling fans in the dining area and all bedrooms, and a state of the art satellite TV/media/sound system for the living area and the four main bedroom suites. There are poolside speakers for diverting guests' music outside to the terrace. The living room has a drop down projector screen as well as a 42" plasma screen TV.

The central level of the villa is the main entertaining quarter, with its sun terrace and pool area, loungers and an al fresco dining set. Part of the terrace is covered, and has cooling ceiling fans, just in case a break is needed from non-stop sunshine. The views towards the ocean and little island are breathtaking, and worthy of quiet contemplation. Later, for evening social gatherings, bring on the music from the sound system! There is a poolside shower and a Jacuzzi.

The open plan living area is at pool level and offers guests comfortable sofas and a choice of screens for viewing the large library of films and shows kept on the entertainment system.
