Crafted in honey-coloured teak, this ornate home is a haven of style, quality and serenity; a dash of local flavour with a streak of upmarket resort flair. Stepping inside, guests would be forgiven for thinking they had stepped into the glossy pages of an interiors magazine, while indoor and outdoor living interplay seamlessly, billowing pristine white curtains, ethnic style carvings and sedate finishes. All the attention to detail that makes a place special, from silk robes in lavish tones to fluffy slippers and coffee machine, while the stand-out features including an infinity pool and jacuzzi lend an indulgent touch. The double bedroom offers a living room space, with elegant desk, dressing table and styling reclining space, decked out in exquisite natural timbers and plush fabrics. The terrace is framed with decadent day-beds and exquisite views, setting the scene for romantic meals at sunset and refreshing post-swim breakfasts as the resort wakes up. The views at every turn are sublime, looking out onto azure waters from the bed or living space creates wonderful vistas, and every contemporary comfort it in place from flat-screen television to wifi. With an array of restaurants on-site, elegant dining rooms to local fare, pampering treatments and the beach on its doorstep, this tropical oasis of Thai hospitality and gracious holiday living wont be forgotten in a hurry. #### Features The Villa Villa Thahan is a dazzling example of Thai heritage style architecture and unadulterated luxury, offering an unforgettable panoramic skyline, private pool and jacuzzi on the lesser trodden island of Koh Yao Yai.
