Throughout our years of experience in the world of villa rentals, one of the things that never fails to capture the hearts of our guests is the awe-inspiring view from the property. In Thailand’s Phuket and Samui islands, many private villas are situated in very dramatic locations owing mainly to the region’s impressive topography and also, in part, to the clever architecture of the villas.
Watching them step inside the property and see the surrounding scenery for the very first time (sometimes even for the second and third time) – it is simply magical; as if you can see all the exhaustion from planning the trip and the hours spent traveling just being washed away from their faces to be replaced by sheer joy and excitement.
If you wish to have this very same experience, here are 10 private luxury villas with truly incredible vistas you may want to consider when you visit Thailand:
Villa Mayavee in Kamala, Phuket
The first villa on our list is found, almost quite literally, on the westernmost point of Phuket. Villa Mayavee is perched above the rocky cliffs of Kamala, surrounded by lush greenery and looking out into the Andaman Sea and the vast Indian Ocean beyond.
Villa Paradiso in Nai Thon, Phuket
Further north, along the same coastline, is another sea and ocean gazer. The 5-bedroom Villa Paradiso offers an excellent view of the peaceful Nai Thon beach from its elevated hillside location. With a sea-facing wall made almost entirely of glass, it is a view you would enjoy in just about any room you enter.
Villa Sangkachai in Choeng Mon, Koh Samui
Villa Sangkachai is a 4-bedroom clifftop holiday retreat in Choeng Mon. Located northeast of the island, guests of this luxury vacation villa can look forward to mesmerizing views of Samui’s sunrise and sunset over the sapphire waters of the Gulf of Thailand. Outdoor lounges and alfresco possibilities allow guests to comfortably bask outdoors as they take in the magnificent vistas that surround them.
Villa Anavaya in Choeng Mon, Koh Samui

Villa Spice in Mae Nam, Koh Samui
The Island of Samui possesses an interesting natural landscape. While its coastal perimeter is lined with lovely beaches, its interior is defined by forested woodland hills.

Built 5 kilometers inland on Mae Nam’s towering hills, this modern villa gives you a view of the island’s vast northwest including the waters of the gulf and the distant mainland.
