Privacy was carefully taken into account while building the only 15 villas along the 250 meters of beachfront. Open living rooms blend in with the luxurious tropical gardens: The design of the villas and the interior decoration gracefully integrate the surrounding natural beauty, combining modern comfort with traditional Thai architecture and natural construction materials.

Activities
Sailing, excursions to Phang Nga, island hopping, fishing, sea-kayaking, massage, games, spa.
Best time to travel
The best time of year for most of Thailand is between November and February, when there is the least rain and it is not too hot. The south is best visited when the rest of Thailand is miserably hot (March to May), and the north is best from mid-November to early December or when it starts warming up again in February. If you are spending time in Bangkok, be prepared to roast in April and do some wading in October - as far as the weather is concerned, the worst two months in the capital.
Getting there
Fly to Phuket. Guests can travel to Koyao Island on the resort's own speedboat (reservation required) or by longtail boat (approximately 1 hour) from Bang Rong pier on the east coast of Phuket or from the Phang Nga Bay.
