Neighbourhood description:

Villa Amber provides a quiet and peaceful location, particularly for couples, who want to experience and learn more about the local Thai culture. You will have plenty of places to explore. This beautiful tropical area has quiet local beaches, authentic local Thai restaurants, Rum Distillery, Laem Sor Pagoda, the waterfalls and the fishing village of Thong Krut with its wonderful atmosphere and stunning sunsets.

The local beach to Villa Amber is only 650 mtrs away, where the coastline is calm and shallow waters. Due to the water being shallow, it may not always be ideal for swimming. There is a real beauty however in these quiet and natural beaches which can hold a far greater appeal than busy tourist beaches. Walk alongside the palm trees, dip your toes into the clear water and feel the sense of Koh Samui of long ago. Within this area you will also find boat trips, snorkelling trips and kayaking on offer, together with several lovely beachside restaurants and cafes. You may prefer to swim at Lamai Beach, only a 10 min drive away, where the ocean is deeper. You also have your own private pool at the villa.

A few mins walk are a couple of local shops. Just 800 mtrs away is 7-Eleven, a local 24hr store for your basic shopping, together with ATM, which are located everywhere across the island. With also the Tesco Lotus Superstore and the popular large food supermarket, Makro located in Lamai, your every need is catered for.

There are many excellent restaurants to choose from. Within a 3 min walk of Villa Topaz is a popular local Thai Restaurant, Somtum Indy, serving both Thai and European food. Also 5 min walk away is the elegant Baan Bo Ran village which has dining indoor rooms with aircon or outdoor tables set by a beautiful Lotus lake. The ever popular and healthy Organic Restaurant Sweet Sisters is only 800 mtrs away. Also 600 mtrs from the villa is Les Jardins De La Rhumerie Restaurant, which is set in a lovely garden and opens for breakfast, staying open from 9 until 21.00 hrs.

Thong Krut, the local fishing village, has many wonderful local beachfront restaurants to experience, along with the nearby beautiful Laem Sor Pagoda to visit - all less than a 6/7 min drive away. Located here in the south tip of the island you will see beautiful sunsets, where it is the perfect place to enjoy the simple pleasures, away from any hustle and bustle.

The southern part of the island, where Villa Amber is located, remains pretty much unspoiled, especially compared to the north. It still has that rustic charm appeal that the whole of Samui once boasted years ago. We are frequently told by guests they find the Thai people in this southern part of the island extremely hospitable, and welcoming. In the north where it is far more crowded and touristy on the island there is not always the opportunity to discover the true warmth and charm of the local people.

The beaches in the south remain pretty much undeveloped, due mainly to the shallow coastline. If you like to explore you can still find areas where you have the beach to yourself, and never too far away will be a rustic Thai restaurant where you can enjoy true authentic local dishes.

LOCAL ATTRACTIONS

The seaside town of Lamai, the second largest on the island, and superior to congested Chaweng, is 10 minutes away by car or moped, where you can fine dine in one of the many beachside restaurants. There are individual shops offering locally made souvenirs and clothes. When the sun goes down the streets come alive with lights from the night market and variety of restaurants serving excellent Thai and western dishes in the town and on the beach. Thai boxing is also popular and Lamai has its own professional and amateur boxing ring. Five mins north of Lamai is Silver beach one of the best beaches on the whole island.

Five mins away by motorbike or car you have the fishing village of Baan Hua Thanon where fresh fish, fruit and vegetables are sold daily at the local market. There are also many local shops here, together with doctor's surgery, restaurants and a Chinese temple.

Amphoe Ko Samui Stadium, only a 5 min drive away, is home to many popular sports events, where visitors can come to watch the activities. It is located in an attractive area, surrounded by a lake/reservoir where there is a football field, basketball etc and you can also walk around or jog with lots of shade. Also outdoor fitness park with brightly coloured exercise equipment which is free to use.

Nearby to the Villa many of the island's main attractions are less than 10 minute drive away, which include the Waterfalls, Elephant Trekking, Grandmother Grandfather Rocks, Thai cookery, Thai boxing, Thai cookery classes, Thai boxing classes (Muay Thai), water sports, among many others.

Traumhaft
Wir haben 18 Tage Urlaub in dieser wunderschönen Villa verbracht. Es war alles ,wie auf den Bildern: wunderschön, sauber und abends sehr romantisch. David und seine Frau haben uns lieb empfangen und waren immer für uns da, wenn wir fragen hatten . Wir hatten die gesamte Zeit ein Motorrad von David gemietet und konnten damit die ganze Insel erkunden. Da das Wetter fantastisch war ,also die ganze Zeit über 35 Grad Celsius ,haben wir natürlich auch den schönen Pool genossen ... oft bis Mitternacht Es war ein traumhafter Urlaub, vielen Dank. David Wir kommen nächstes Jahr wieder Kalman und Uta 😎

About the host

Hosted by david smart

Host profile image
I moved in 2005 to Koh Samui from Cirencester in the UK. I travelled to Thailand and other countries in this part of the world from 1990. From the places I visited Koh Samui became clearly my favourite destination.

Inspired by the opportunity for business I made the decision to move to Koh Samui and develop a new rental enterprise.

I created my own Flooring business when living in Cirencester. During this time I was also heavily involved in property development and property rental. This became a strong passion of mine, having created a large number of varying style properties in the UK. It was at this time I sought a new challenge and the idea and opportunity of moving to Koh Samui arose.

Since moving to the island I have created 15 properties, of which there are 9 luxury villas for rental, ranging from 1 to 4 bedrooms, with their own swimming pools, four with spectacular ocean views, and all with an individual and tropical style. This collection of stunning villas are known as Peacefulvillas.

There have been a great many challenges in developing villas in a vastly different culture and environment in which I was brought up in. The challenges at times have been stressful, demanding and exhausting! The rewards however have far outweighed the challenges and have been able to stretch my creativity and inspiration.

Living on the island and surrounded by the beautiful, tropical nature I don’t feel the need to be anywhere else. Peacefulvillas keeps me strongly motivated and busy every day, where I enjoy to meet people from all over the world who come to stay, and often return to one of our villas.

I have only returned to Europe twice in 19 years of living on the island. One was for three days in Milan and another for 24hrs in Madrid, both to watch the mighty Spurs play in the Champions League !!!!

Why they chose this property

Villa Amber is an ideal villa for 2 persons, and particularly a couple, who are seeking a romantic getaway. This is a beautiful and natural part of the island. The north of the island is found to be a particularly busy area.

Villa Amber provides totally private accommodation in a lovely tropical area, away from the hustle and bustle. Yet only a 10 min drive away is the town of Lamai, which offers a beautiful, expansive beach, smart beachside restaurants, bars and shopping.

At the villa there are simple pleasures to enjoy, like relaxing by the pool, enjoying a barbecue, shopping in the local Thai market for fresh fish and meat or exploring the local area.

The location in the south is ideal for those who want to experience authentic Thai culture and is a quieter part of the island. Here there are many places to explore with quiet local beaches, fishing villages, Rum Distillery, Thai family run restaurants and the beautiful Laem Sor Pagoda to visit, with many other lovely places to see and experience.

I chose this location to create Villa Amber, as this is a natural, peaceful and very beautiful area of the island. It holds a great deal of charm which often can be lost in the busier, more touristy areas of the island.

We have 10 villas for rental in the south of the island. In 2020 we proudly completed luxury ocean 2 bedroom Villa Moonstone which can also be rented out as a 1 Bedroom, and is the latest design in the collection of Peacefulvillas.

What makes this property unique

We provide complimentary pick up from your arrival point on the island to take you to Villa Amber and a return journey at the end of your stay.

Villa Amber, a high quality villa, is ideally suited for couples, with beautiful furnishings and fittings throughout. It has a large 7 x 4 mtr salt water swimming pool with jetted plunge pool with seating area, and surrounding lush garden. Lovely Lotus pond at the entrance filled with colourful tropical fish. Fully fitted new Kitchen with all the facilities you need.

Located in the south, which is a quieter, more relaxed, part of the island you will have the opportunity to explore and see the local Thai way of life. The villa provides a sanctuary in this fabulous haven, with its peaceful and exotic atmosphere. Only a 5 min walk is a Thai Restaurant serving both Thai and European food, popular Sweet Sisters Organic cafe and restaurant is 800 mtrs and a 5 min drive is Bang Kao Restaurant and also Uncle Toms cabin idyllically located on the beach. There are many other lovely restaurants around only a 5 - 10 min drive away.

We can assist you with the hire of a car or moped for your stay.

We also have a professional masseuse that will come to the villa at your request, and at a very reasonable price.

I have lived on the island for 19 years and am always happy to provide any information I can to help make your stay rewarding and enjoyable.
