Outside with a panoramic vista that spans across verdant tropical land, sandy shores, and the endless ocean, there is the villa’s 19-metre swimming pool that sits majestically right at the edge sporting an infinity-style layout. While you splash and wade with style, enjoy a heady view of the neighbouring areas for a wonderful and enriching experience.

A traditional Thai sala in the corner provides excellent views and a cosy space you can retreat to for some alone time!
Nestled in the biggest of the three pavilions is the lavish living room at Ban Kinaree, designed to impress with a lived-in vibe, warm woody interiors, and comfortable furniture.

9.2/10Wonderful location on top of a hill, great views, beautiful gardens & pool. Very kind and helpful staff. Spacious layout is ideal for larger groups or families who want a sense of space.
9.4/10the location was excellent! You cannot walk far though because of the steep terrain and distance from stores etc which is why I didn't give 5 stars for this. Any outing includes a drive. This is to be expected though for the views! The living space was perfect, so spacious and beautiful with indoor outdoor flow and views. The service was beyond excellent and if you eat in at the villa for enough meals you will find you will save a lot of money which adds to the value of the villa, as well as the fact that the chef cooks probably better than anywhere on Samui!! The bedrooms and beds were comfortable and elegant and all had lovely outlooks. THe bathrooms were lovely as well The pool was a real delight and one thing I enjoyed much more than I expected to! Couldn't get out of it somedays! The gardens also were gorgeous. Two suggestions though;1) twin beds rather than double beds in every room as an option would be appreciated by families (siblings) and friends not wanting to share a bed. 2) the spa baths in the ensuites need stronger taps to fill more quickly. Overall we loved the villa and the staff and service made this unforgettable! We will definitely return and highly recommend this to anyone
