Villa Location
One of only a handful of properties on the prestigious Samsara Estate, Villa Saengootsa has the privilege of mesmeric views across Nakalay Bay. This unique set up on an exclusive headland has won many accolades for the designer: well-spaced properties finished to the highest level of detail and reflecting the sublime scenery that abounds on all sides. Each of the contemporary dwellings has its own attraction so it is little wonder the district is regarded as the most desirable destination on the entire Asian continent. Yet its exclusivity has not bred isolation, and the locale remains within a stone’s throw of many of Phuket’s most vaunted hot-spots.
From the rocky outcrop of Saengootsa, guests can stroll 15-minutes and find a plethora of pristine white sands. Or hire a car and in 5-minutes be in the centre of Kamala; at any number of fine-dining establishments in less than 10-minutes; or, if it’s the gyms and markets of Patong you crave, then 10 minutes are all you’ll need. Venture further and discover Phuket Country Club with its elegant golf course, while the international airport is around a 50-minute drive.

Villa Layout
Enter the property and descend immediately into the drama of the main living space, ocean vistas on all sides and custom furnishings that will swallow guests whole. The structure frames the panoramas with its intricately geometric lines, while the glass frontage exposes the full extent of the unrivalled views. Open-plan spaces harmoniously connect so guests can float throughout the property without second thought, double-height ceilings offering a sense of grandeur, while retractable glass doors open the lounge onto the outdoor terrace - itself an al fresco dining spot. Dip into the infinity pool or slide into the open-air pavilion – this is a majestic setting for retreat.
Tailored to culinary-inspired guests, a state-of-the-art built-in BBQ neighbours the outdoor dining pavilion – itself a feature of the decked area. The granite preparation surface doubles as a kitchen island and borders the dining table, polished concrete benches lining either side. With a separate option of the poolside sala for afternoon repose, guests are spoiled for Andaman viewpoints, although this divine aperitif setting can become a vacation stalwart. Recede from parental duties, cocktail in-hand, and allow the young to enjoy the delights of the media room with its flat-screen TV or billiard table offering – there is no way they will get bored.
As much as the social nature of convivial living is a must, the sanctuary of sleeping arrangements is equally prized and guests will delight in the capacious offerings of their bedrooms. Lavish bedspreads offer refuge after days in the sultry sun, outdoor tubs a spot of solitary respite, as well as an exclusive hot-tub for indulgence on the master suite veranda.
Few greater pleasures exist than those on offer at Villa Saengootsa.
