Welcome to five bedroom Yupa Villa 1, a vacation rental nestled away in the charming village of Bophut. The vibes are serene and peaceful here, but this doesn’t mean that the villa is isolated - the property is located within driving distance to an array of amenities and attractions, like supermarkets, convenience stores and the Fisherman’s Village. A private compound and a full range of modern facilities ensure a comfortable and restful holiday.
Five bedrooms are spread out across two floors; the first is located on the ground floor, while the remaining bedrooms are set on the upper level.
The capacious master bedroom sets itself apart with amenities like a large bathroom with jacuzzi, four poster double bed and flat screen TV. The combination of soft cream walls and wood panel flooring lends the room a cosy ambience, and sunlight streams in through the glass doors to create a bright, airy interior.
Each of the upper floor bedrooms feature an en suite bathroom. Three of the rooms are furnished with double beds, while the fourth room adjoins to one of the three bedrooms, and is outfitted with a single bed.
Step past the entrance into the landscaped garden and outdoor compound of Yupa Villa 1. An L-shaped pool takes centerstage outdoors, and is framed with potted plants and sun loungers. A veranda, furnished with couches and a coffee table is a favourite hangout for afternoon tea and evening cocktails.
Glass doors flank the living area, creating brightly lit spaces that offer easy access to the pool and outdoor compound. The open layout adds a sense of spaciousness within, and the interior is fitted with elegant ornaments, Buddha statues and colourful paintings. The colour scheme is soothing and easy on the eyes, featuring soft cream hues and earth-toned furnishings and fixtures.
All your holiday needs are well taken care of at Yupa Villa 1, thanks to a full team of professional housekeeping staff. Laundry, cooking or grocery shopping - you won’t have to lift a single finger through your stay. Your villa manager will also assist with other vacation needs, such as making arrangements for transportation, day trips and travel activities.
A variety of local amenities and attractions are dotted all around your villa. Bophut Beach, with its white sand coasts and calm waters is a popular spot for relaxation. It is an eight-minute drive from your villa compound.
The focal point is Fisherman’s Village, located just a six-minute drive away. Once a base for fishermen in the vicinity, it has blossomed into a hub containing shops, art galleries and dining establishments. The vibes here are laidback and appeal to a family-friendly crowd. Some of our favourite restaurants include Alla Baia, Barracuda, Copacabana and Le Classico. If you’re around the area on Friday evenings, drop by the night market after dinner to soak in its bustling atmosphere.
Big Buddha Temple, a must-see attraction on the island is located a 15-minute drive from your villa. For a night of fun-filled partying, hop into a cab for a 10-minute ride down to the lively Chaweng Beach.
9.6/10WOW! What an exceptional villa for a wonderful extended family getaway. We stayed at the Yupa Villa 1 for Christmas and New Years and it was more then we had hoped for. We had three couples and four children (age range from 1 year old to 12 years old). Yupa Villa 1 was perfect for us all. We had our own rooms with exceptional facilities in each room. Every room also had aircon which was pleasurable in the humidity. The communal kitchen/living area was fabulous with everything a family needed (the aircon did not work in this area but the fans saved us). The main reason the facilities gets 4 stars is due to the extremely slippery tiles around the pool. This was a hazard for us but we laid down some towels and resolved the issue. Our concierge Ryan was friendly and welcomed us. He was also extremely easy to contact and had open communication with us. The location was everything we were after. We are a family of 'walkers' so were happy to walk the 15 minutes to the Big C supermarket and the 40 minute walk to the Fishermans Village Friday night markets (a must do if visiting Koh Samui). For the times we did not want to walk accessing taxi's via the main road was also very easy. Alternatively, whenever we needed to be picked up from the villa for a tour the tour company's had no problem accessing us and collecting us directly for Yupa Villa 1. As we were travelling with children we came across the 'Fun House' which is just around the corner for Yupa Villa 1 (10min walk) and this place was fantastic. It was a café and play house for the children all in one. The adults could sit and enjoy a reasonably priced meal while our children played in a supervised play area. The play area was clean and provided great entertainment for the children. This villa was one of the more affordable villa's during the festive season and it is 100% value for money!! We could not have been happier with our holiday and stay at the Yupa Villa 1. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.
