Surin Heights - Sawan Anda

  • Location: Surin
  • Number of bedrooms: 2
A gorgeous two-bedroom villa perched on the hillside overlooking Surin Bay, Sawan Anda is a fun and fascinating escape ideally suited for couples. Here, the sacred and the stylish co-exist beautifully: a large seated Buddha statue exudes a blissful aura in the garden while the interior sparkles with luxurious flourishes in every nook and cranny. Designed for fun, romance and chic living, high-tech entertainment facilities may be enjoyed alongside an eclectic art and antiques collection ranging from a 12th century Vishnu statue to Warhol's Chairman Mao portrait. The lighting alone is enthralling, with a fibre-optic starlight effect over the master bedroom's glitter-tiled jacuzzi, one-touch controls that dramatically change the mood of a room in an instant, and carefully positioned points of light illuminating the mythical Thai figures that meander across the walls of a spectacular staircase mural.

The lavish sea-view master suite on the top floor is a romantic haven, its king-sized bed positioned in front of a gold-leaf embellished wall and under an exquisite chandelier dangling from the peaked wood ceiling. On the lower floor, the second bedroom is draped with vivid silks. If a meditation session in the Buddha garden fails to calm, then it's an easy few steps inside to the incredible lava-rock spa room with full facilities for a range of treatments (extra charges apply). The contemporary and impeccably furnished living room, dining room and western kitchen are situated on the open-plan main level that gives way to a lovely pool terrace. Should one tire of the sea views and luxuriating around the pool, the colourful media room is equipped with enough electronic toys to provide days of indoor entertainment.

Sawan Anda sits aloft in the exclusive Surin Heights estate, sharing a superb view over the ocean with a sprinkling of other villas and apartments. The beach is an easy five-minute walk away, while Surin's refined dining and shopping choices are a few hundred metres further, or can be reached using the villa's shuttle service which is included in the price. Sawan Anda is staffed with a full-time guest attendant and housekeeper, and offers a concierge service for organising excursions, in-villa massages, car hire and more. For those who wish to steer clear of the kitchen, a cook versed in both Thai and Western cusine may be brought in for an extra charge.

From top to bottom, Villa Sawan Anda is drenched in modern luxury and style. The master bedroom takes up the entire top floor, offering a romantic hideaway with the best sea views, especially from the jacuzzi bathtub set under a fibre-optic ‘starlit’ ceiling. The ensuite bathroom also has a steam bath for indulgent relaxation. A huge wardrobe, vaulted ceiling and gorgeous painted wall panels give this king-bedded room a classic touch, while its excellent audio-visual entertainment system adds a modern edge. The second bedroom is on the villa’s lower level, and romance abounds here too with silk draping over the king-sized bed and an ensuite with large shower. Those who fancy an indulgent soak can slip across the hall to the 'sparkling' spa room, with its lovely free-form tub. This chic room is furnished with a spa bed and stocked with a range of products for soothing treatments. A sumptuous daybed set in a black lava-rock alcove may be used as a spare single bed if needed. Both the spa room and second bedroom enjoy easy access to the Buddha garden with its stunning sea views. In this elaborately designed outdoor space there's a large barbecue area for enjoying alfresco meals and relaxing with friends.

The villa’s lavishly furnished middle level provides plenty of space for socialising. A hip and comfy living area is set next to a dining room with seating for eight and floor-to-ceiling folding glass doors stretched across the entire front for enjoying wide sea views. Just behind the dining area is a shiny kitchen equipped with Gaggenau appliances, a full stock of cooking gear and all the elegant crockery necessary to present a splendid meal. A sound system and touch-screen lighting control with some colourful options make it easy to set the right mood. Remote-controlled shades on the terrace mean that sun exposure can be adapted to suit, and the sala (gazebo) at one end of the pool allows for comfortable dining at any time of day. The pool's small size is offset by a powerful jet at one end, which offers an endless workout if one swims against the flow. The whimsically designed media room on the mezzanine between the middle and lower levels has all the latest audio-visual equipment, including a Wii, a 60-inch flat-screen TV, iPod dock and a Mac computer.
