Baan Tawan Chai is a beachfront escape nestled in a secluded bay along the southern coast of Koh Samui. Comprising three traditional Thai-style pavilions, this elegant villa offers a perfect blend of coastal charm and modern comfort. Interiors feature finely crafted woven wood furnishings, while resort-grade amenities ensure your stay is both luxurious and relaxed. Ideal for families or groups, the villa promises a tranquil seaside retreat with the convenience of nearby cultural and nature attractions.
The villa has four air-conditioned bedrooms in two other pavilions – two bedrooms in each pavilion. All bedrooms have king beds and dedicated, semi-open bathrooms with indoor and outdoor rain showers. One bedroom, however, also has an outdoor, fitted bathtub. All bedrooms have direct access to the swimming pool.
10 x 4 x 1-1.8 m
At the heart of the villa lies a 10-meter private swimming pool, surrounded by lush gardens and a spacious sundeck. Whether you prefer a morning swim, a soak in the jacuzzi, or lounging on poolside sunbeds, the setting offers a calm, tropical escape. Large umbrellas provide shade, while a beachfront sala invites you to unwind with a cool drink and ocean breeze. During summer, tidal changes reveal an expansive sandy shore perfect for beachcombing and relaxing walks; in cooler months, the calm bay becomes ideal for kayaking (though swimming is not advised due to coral and rocks).
At the villa’s semi-open, airy and high-ceilinged main pavilion is the living area with its hefty, cushioned and elaborate, woven wood couch and chairs. Here, you can all gather for moments of family or friendly bonding. Adjoining is the dining area. On its dark, timber wood table for eight, you can all indulge on authentic local cuisine – as well as international favorites – dished out by the resident chef from the well-equipped, modern kitchen behind the dinner table.
Your stay includes the dedicated service of a Villa Hostess, who will assist with all your holiday arrangements—from grocery shopping and meal preparation to organizing taxis, massages, tours, car rentals, and more. A full-time housekeeper, pool technician, and gardener ensure that the villa is impeccably maintained throughout your stay, creating a seamless and truly enjoyable experience.
Baan Tawan Chai Villa is situated along Bang Kao Beach. Hop aboard a traditional boat for an expedition to nearby Koh Matsum and Koh Taen where you can also go swimming and get active with different water sports. On another day tour, go see Wat Kunaram and the remains of a mummified monk, the Laem Sor and Khao Chedi Pagodas, as well as Grandfather and Grandmother Stones. On a separate excursion, go nature tripping at the Samui Aquarium, the Tiger Zoo and the Butterfly Garden.
10/10Perfect for a family vacation. The best staff I've ever had. I recommend everyone to relax in this villa.
10/10We loved the villa with its 3 separate buildings, beautiful garden, superb pool and location right at a very quiet near private beach! The staff was amazing. Thanks for a fabulous holiday!
10/10Baan Tawan Chai was a perfect choice for us to stay on our honeymoon. We have been back in the US for almost a month now, and we can't stop thinking about our stay. The staff was very kind and helpful, and made delicious food for us every day. The grounds were simply gorgeous and it was on a great private beach that made us feel like the island belonged just to us. Next time we make it back to Koh Samui, we will definitely return to Baan Tawan Chai. We only wish we had more time to stay there. Thank you to all the staff (Thoy and Jai) and to Nikki for taking such good care of us!
10/10Having been lucky enough over the years to take many amazing holidays, we are very experienced. Baan Tawan Chai has been one of the best. The team of Sompit, Jai and Toey have made this stay just unbelievably wonderful. They are so discreet, anticipating our needs and always with such kind smiles. Having recently experienced several family bereavements, I have been stressed and nervous. This amazing team have been the best restorative for the soul I could have asked for. And to the main man here, Tawan, a Prince amongst all the doggies here!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. See you soon, I hope. Caroline, Lizzy, Andre and John. Xxxxx
10/10Excellent vacation, Villa is beautiful and quiet, service is amazing
10/10Baan Tawan Chai offers maximum comfort in luxurious surroundings, yet maintains a feeling of home from home. A perfect retreat for families young and old in a wonderful tropical setting but has easy access to all of the local attractions. Thai hospitality at its best. Loved it so much the first time, I decided to go again and was not disappointed, in fact was very much impressed by the service of the staff and the fact that the incredibly high standard had been maintained. Would encourage everyone to try this beautiful villa and all that it has to offer.
