Few villas in Phuket enjoy Baan Lom Talay's inviting mix of convenient access to the beach and utmost privacy. Baan Lom Talay means 'Seabreeze House' and here one certainly has a prime spot for enjoying those sea breezes. After arriving at the road-level car park, you descend into a maze of a villa set in four pavilions spilling down the hillside over four levels. But this is a maze where every turn leads to a luxurious end. Kamala Bay stretches out in front of the villa and there are amazing views from every room. A hundred metres away to the south is the beach, while directly across the bay is 'Millionaire's Mile' headland, dotted with fancy resorts and villas. This villa is the perfect perch for observing comings and goings in the bay, which is part tourist resort and part fishing village. Watch fishermen cast their nets from long-tail boats while, a few metres away, a luxury yacht anchors for the night.

The villa is designed in classic Thai style with separate peak-roofed pavilions connected by stairs and walkways. Each of the five bedroom suites are lavishly furnished with their own living areas, entertainment systems and ample terrace or balcony space, and three of them have outdoor jacuzzis overlooking the sea. All but one bedroom (which is furnished with twin beds) have king-sized beds. Two master suite pavilions are set at opposite sides of the 75sqm pool, which has a shallow end that's ideal for kids and a sala (Thai pavilion) ‘floating’ at its centre, nice for cooling down in the shade while listening to the built-in sound system. The lower level is designed for shared enjoyment, with a dining room, well-equipped living–media room and a large kitchen. Two windows offer an underwater view into the pool -- a fun feature that kids will love.

Four staff including an English-speaking villa manager (plus a concierge service provided by the management company) are on hand to help with every need from grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning, to arranging tour bookings, golf tee-times, and restaurant reservations. A continental breakfast is included in the villa rate while other meals can be selected from an in-villa suggestion menu (provisions charged to guest account). The Thai dishes in particular are excellent and well presented.

With rooms set over four levels, maximum sea views from every inch of the villa are assured. Starting from the top (entrance level), the king-bedded Lotus Room features a stunning vaulted ceiling and a big terrace with outdoor jacuzzi. Just below this is the Lily Room which is also furnished with a king-size bed and has a jacuzzi tucked into the corner of its terrace. The Jasmine Room, with twin beds and a great sea view from its balcony lies opposite the Lotus Room. On the third level down are the two master suites, each in its own large pavilion, separated by the lovely stone-walled swimming pool and sala. Both master suites are furnished with king-size beds and have large terraces and peaked wooden ceilings. The Island Master Suite, reached only by crossing the pool through the sala, enjoys total privacy. The Orchid Jacuzzi Master bedroom, meanwhile, features a large jacuzzi on its front terrace and another in its ensuite bathroom. All five suites are air conditioned and have their own stylishly furnished living areas, TVs with DVD players, mini-fridges and spacious ensuite bathrooms.

The aqua-tiled swimming pool is sheltered, at one end, by a high stone wall punctuated with sandstone statues, three of which have fountain spouts pouring into the pool creating a pleasant waterfall sound-effect. The sea-facing side of the pool is very shallow – great for young children and for soaking the feet! In the centre is a grand peak-roofed 'floating' sala, reached by steps across the water.

On the lower level of the villa, is a sitting area with six chairs set around a coffee table where one can see into the pool through an ‘underwater’ window. Down a long, open corridor to the right is the bright, well-equipped kitchen while, in the dining room at the opposite end of the corridor, three wooden tables are joined to form a grand setting which will seat up to 12 diners. Next to this is a spacious living area with a large plasma TV and full entertainment system for the family to enjoy while relaxing on the two comfy silk sofas. To the rear of the living room, an area furnished with a double daybed, wardrobe, and ensuite shower room could be used as a sixth bedroom or simply as a nice place to relax in air-conditioned comfort. A wide terrace stretches across the front of the living-dining rooms.
