Around the villa

Distances are measured in a straight line from the villa. Travel routes may be longer.

Lipa Noi Beach is widely regarded as one of the most peaceful stretches of sand on the island, famous for its incredible sunsets. Unlike the busier tourist hubs, this area maintains a quiet, residential charm that feels authentically Thai.

A short stroll along the beach will lead you to the famous Nikki Beach Club if you are looking for a more vibrant afternoon. For a quiet dinner, several local seafood shacks offer fresh catches right on the sand nearby.

The villa is also conveniently located near the Raja Ferry Pier, making it easy to explore nearby islands. The surrounding area is flat and easy to navigate, perfect for leisurely walks or exploring the local coconut groves.

This was one of my favorite villa my friends and I have ever stayed in. The space and the setting were absolutely beautiful, clean, and comfortable. This villa is located in a quieter and more relaxing part of the island, which was perfect for our group. What really made the stay special was the house staff. From arranging transportation, groceries, delicious meals, creating a special birthday celebration, and generally keeping the villa spotless, they continuously went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Would highly recommend this villa.

We had a wonderful family vacation. The house is large and well-equipped, and the decor is pretty. The rooms are on 3 houses so ideal for noise. The house is located on a beautiful beach, very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle. The staff is very kind and caring, really attentive. The Thai meals prepared are very fine. I recommend 1000%, I will come back without hesitation

Perfect villa for families with children. There's a shallow area in the swimming pool which made it perfect for the kids. The staff are really nice and service is top-notch. We had a special beach dinner arranged during our stay and it was impressive! Really worth recommending.

We could not fault our one week stay at Baan Chao Lay. It is ideal for anyone wanting to holiday in a quiet location that is only 20 minutes from the more touristy areas of Koh Samui. The villa is maintained and managed very well and the staff were all excellent, especially our full-time chef. He cooked the best Thai food we have ever eaten day after day. The villa manager was a delightful lady who offered plenty of local advice and was generally a helpful person. The beach is not ideal for swimming in July, but we spent all our time in the pool anyway. It was a very child-friendly villa and the staff were all extremely pleasant.

Hey Anna, We had an absolutely lovely time at Baan Chao Lay and would definitely recommend it to other friends. We'd also very much like to come back again or in one of your other villas. The staff were all really lovely. Overall there was a really nice balance of having them around when we needed them, but also having some time where we had the place to ourselves. Stand outs were Lek who was friendly and very helpful. She also took the time to look out for the kids when we (the adults) were having our meals. She also made the effort to go over and above, giving us smoothies/drinks throughout the day. Also Chef... The food was truly 6 star. We were thoroughly treated. The villa and beach were both kept immaculately. Looking forward to coming back! Cheers Lisa
