On the coast of Phuket, where the sea is emerald green, the sand is pearly white, and the atmosphere is relaxed by day and buzzing by night, this home is an oasis of tranquil luxury. Set in a secured estate, you’ll be ensconced in privacy and peace here, while still being close to the action. Large glass windows bathe each room in soft natural light, so you can admire the lush native plant life growing outside. You’ll have a shady garden, as well as a stunning private pool to cool off in on those warm sunny days. Inside there’s plenty of room to relax together, with two cosy sitting rooms and an open plan living space downstairs. The main bedroom comes with a huge walk-in wardrobe, and a bathtub in the en suite to soak in after the day’s adventure.

When you’re ready to venture out, a world of fun awaits. There’s a free shuttle bus from the estate that can take you to the gorgeous Layan Beach, the Xana beach club, as well as local restaurants serving delicious Thai food, and the shops alongside other local spots. If sunbathing isn’t your thing, practise your swing at the picturesque golf course next to the estate. After a day of exploring, come home and head up to the roof terrace, where you can fire up the barbecue and enjoy a cocktail while the sun sets in the distance.
