    Beautifal appartment, with amazing views. Everything is very clean. The host is very helpfull and knows al lot about the island and what are the best things to do there. Location is a bit furter from all the shops and restaurants but nice place to relax and the views are definitelly worth it.

    Very modern, clean and comfortable accommodation in a quiet location with easy access to beach and a nice local restaurant. The outstanding feature, however, are the mesmerising sea views, that we couldn't get enough of. Also, Phil is a great host, excellent comms and very supportive. Thanks mate, we loved it and will be back for sure!

    It’s a bit out of the way, but we liked that 😁

    This place is amazing! We stayed here as group of four, and it is a wow property. Just like the pictures. Phil, our host, was terrific and couldn’t have been more helpful. The property had a fabulous pool area and is near a lovely quiet beach. If you are happy to get a bike to do some exploring this place is a terrific option.

    If there were easiest way to deal with locking the doors, because you have to close each one since it is separate rooms but it is just slight inconvenience and has nothing to do with completely positive aftertaste with staying there. Thanks to Phil, the owner

    I liked everything there. View and the pool are amazing . Rooms are comfortable and well equipped. Host is an amazing guy, very friendly, I guess meeting every guest himself, and taking care of everything in the place. And I guess he had a rule and had to charge us for electricity but he didn’t, which shows how he cares about your comfort rather than money

    There is nothing to dislike. This place is paradise.

    Amazing villa with a magnificent view. Very comfortable stay in secluded tophill location, at the same time just 10-15 min drive to vibrant Chaweng or Fisherman village. A shared pool is also splendid. Philip provided us with all necessary recommendations and suggestions for dining and leisure. We would be happy to return someday.

    The pool was cold but that is out of the control of the owner. As it was December the pool could not heat up during the day. I'm sure this not an issue during the summer.

    We loved the ocean view, we couldn't get enough of it! Watching the sunrise was a highlight. The living space was big and so comfortable. The bedrooms were spacious, and the beds were large and extremely comfortable. The owner Philip was very polite and helpful, as he catered to all our needs. Very easy check-in and check-out. The infinity pool was great too with an awesome view of course.

    Property was spotless and beautiful. The views from the Villa were incredible. Phil the host was incredible he couldn’t have been any more helpful, any queries/demands he was on hand to get things right for us right away. Look forward to returning in the near future and would recommend to anyone to stay here as the property and host are a absolute gem. พระเจ้าอวยพร

    Stunning views! We chose the villa because of the stunning views and they really are. The residence is very spacious, very well decorated, the beds are very comfortable, it is close to the beach, although you have to climb a few stairs on the way back, but we didn't mind. It is good to have a car, but we managed without one too. The Thongson Bay is not big, but there are not many people and you feel as the beach is just for you. The owner welcomed us when we arrived, helped us with the luggage, gave us useful tips and was always available on WhatsApp if needed. Thank you Phil for the amazing stay! We would come back again.

    Small point... A guide showing what to do in the area. Philip was very helpful with ideas, but a map of the area showing the local attractions, laundry, 7-11, moped hire, taxi options, etc would have helped.

    Quiet hill-top location, with excellent views over the local beach which is a short walk away, having bars, jet ski and other activities. Short taxi ride to Fisherman's Village, full of restaurants and bars. Lovely relaxing infinity pool with shade during the midday sun, also with great views of the beach

    We rented a spacious apartment with three bedrooms. Comfortable beds, good quality bed linen. A large living room in which we watched movies in the evenings. A gorgeous terrace on the street, where we had breakfast and sunbathed. A magnificent swimming pool, available when renting an apartment. Premium location, best view of Koh Samui. Convenient parking.

    My wife and kids loved this place, we had a big 3bedroom villa with a huge terrace overlooking Thongson Bay Beach, we were so lucky to see dolphins swimming into the bay one morning while eating breakfast from our terrace, the view is exceptional. The owner was really welcoming and made us feel home immediately, he even gave us super recommendations on food places and sightseeing.
