Baan Ban Buri

A refined elegance and traditional charm encapsulate the atmosphere of Baan Ban Buri, an enclave of tranquillity hidden within the Dhevatara Estate. Set at the end of a private road, the grounds of the estate are an expanse of pristine gardens and swaying palms that hide a handful of luxury villas; each given their own private entrance for ultimate seclusion.

Recede from the hubbub and hide in the exclusivity of this ocean-front property. The divine dwelling lays an emphasis on what lies beyond – a mesmeric expanse of glistening sea that stretches far into the distance; idling fishing boats are the only distraction on an otherwise untouched horizon.

Within the property, a focus on comfort, tradition and style reigns - with minimalist interiors and flashes of colour through local artworks and splendid sculptures. Enjoy the sense of sophistication afforded within this fine space, then head outdoors to the enchanting surrounds for true revitalisation of the soul.

Set in seclusion on the northern edge of Koh Samui, looking out across a horseshoe bay of tranquil delight, Baan Ban Buri is the recluse’s heaven. The exclusive Dhevatara Estate houses only a handful of properties, each in a decidedly isolated locale, and affords guests maximum privacy throughout their stay with the choice of seeing humanity left up to them, and to them alone.

With the temptation of Bo Phut to the east and Mae Nam to the west, few can resist the allure of the trendy beach-front bars and award-winning restaurants of the districts, or the tantalising delights of Chaweng; a town that boasts the liveliest strips of the island. And with the airport just a ten-minute drive away, you will be barely off the plane yet already with cocktail in hand, admiring the awe-inspiring beauty that is this Thai tropical paradise.

An impressive property in resplendent surrounds, arrive through a grand gated entrance that leads into the central courtyard, with a view of the six beautiful pavilions that make up Baan Ban Buri. Each of the four bedrooms captures a sensual appeal through calming white interiors, offset by imaginative artworks and decorous accessories.

The first two guest rooms are housed in separate buildings at the front of the property; elegant designs with their own ensuites, one deluxe double-bed, one charming twin-room. Deeper within lies the master suite – a poolside position with polished wooden floors, regal four-poster bed and enticing views of the ocean beyond. Its own sunken bathtub the piece-de-resistance in this indulgent space. Then just beyond to the final guest room, again in its own exclusive pavilion setting, with lavish ensuite bathroom and inviting décor.

At the heart of the villa lies the main lounging and dining areas – breakfast bar and teak wooden dining table inviting guests in for morning and evening banquets. Stretching out over an internal fish pond, doors give way to an open-sided lounge space – ideal for tropical existence and social gatherings – then flowing on to the poolside terrace; the ideal sun-seeker spot for those in search of vitamin D. Nestle beside the infinity pool and enjoy sprawling ocean views, dreamy daytime cocktails and evening starlit canvases – from an idyllic open-air setting.

Once appetites are fulfilled, why not engage the services of the in-villa spa therapist for private massages or wellness treatments. There is no better day in paradise than one spent indulging in the delights of the local traditional offerings.
