This holiday was definitely the most relaxing i ever had!
Everything was perfectly arranged.
The day we landed at phuket airport we were picked up and driven to the villa in an airconditioned minibus. That trip took about one hour and holiday begun to start. At the villa we were welcomed by the the local property manager and her husband who showed us everything about the villa. There was even a nice fruit basket and botteled water in the fridge. But we still needed to buy some things, so they drove us to the bank and the store. We wanted also some scooters, which were arranged and delivered a few hours later to the villa, while we were relaxing for the first time at this great pool with the great gardenview. I already miss the palmtrees waving in the wind... before we came there we had some ideas what to do, but then everything changed. The villa, the pool, the garden, the tranquillity... we had no much requirement to go to the beach and lay there around. For us it was perfect, that the villa was not that close to the beach. And it was also great that it was not directly at one of the hotspots. With the scooter we were within 5 minutes of lots of great restaurants and markets. Rawai and Nai Harn are really blessed with good restaurants To name a few: Mando (my favorite), Sala Loi, Baan Haad, Da Vinci, Banana Corner, Crepes Village, M&M Pizzeria, Kan Eang@Pier (Chalong), In Chalong you have the villa market you get everything you could possibly need. If you really want to hang around at a beach, go to Ya Nui Beach in my opinion the most beautiful beach on phuket - definitely the best sunset - and quite small.. not a load of other tourists and you get even a place to lay on without paying 200bht for a pair of sunlongers and a parasoil.
A few more words about the villa: Its huge!! and i am lucky to have a huge living room myself, else i would have claustrophobia coming back home ;)
This is a modern villa with a modern furniture - lots of stone, aluminium and glass. I love it! The kitchen is huge (every room is huge) and has all you need.. there is a brickgrill in the garden and also a weber grill, but we did not use that - we were just too lazy to doo anything, so we were also happy about the cleaning-lady who came every 3/4 days to clean up and recover the beds.
And there is also a nice A/V system (bring your own ps3 - what we did) if the afternoons are getting too hot outside.I have to cut this down no more words left:
PERFECT LOCATION and SERVICE!!
