Maenam Heights; or should we say Talay Heights, meaning beach in Thailand, and the name could well represent the fact that Samui is a beach-lovers’ island where you’re never far away from a beautiful stretch of sandy beach. But, at this secluded property, it’s the private, peaceful and natural atmosphere that provides the most striking feature.
This is a property set in an area of exceptional natural beauty and the location, size, layout, landscaping, and the use of natural materials all adds to the relaxing ambience. Large secure gates open to reveal a driveway with a large covered parking area and an imposing island feature of huge stones and mature trees.
From the driveway a covered Thai-style Sala entrance leads you on to a stone pathway that runs between the extensive garden areas and between the two mirror pavilions that make up this property.
Steps take you up onto a terraced area and as you walk along the terraces, you look out and across the large private swimming pool, complete with a private seating sala, toward the Ocean and the tropical mountain canopies. The views are outstanding, with the home surrounded by impressive grounds, which includes its own landscaped mountain lake/pond.
The clever positioning of the buildings and the route of the pathways ensures that you’re eyes are steered to best appreciate what’s on offer here, a great combination of indoor and outdoor living. Space and stylish landscaping help to enhance the atmosphere; lawns and colourful planting from the entrance to the lily pond add to the overall beauty. But the existing rock formations, mature trees and wild tropical plants situated in the area behind the pool provide an environment that’s been created entirely by nature.
This is a naturally shaded area to be enjoyed and explored by adults, and also an area of fun and adventure for children.
The home seamlessly blend modern facilities, high quality furnishings, and traditional Thai architecture. Plasma TV’s, comfortable furniture, large wooden dining tables, and luxuriously appointed bathrooms are complemented by the choice of stylish Asian ornaments, accessories and artwork throughout.
The pavilion on the left of the property, as you look from the driveway, has an open-plan lounge and dining area with polished wooden floors and vaulted ceiling. There’s a large master bedroom at one end of this room which can be used with a connecting en-suite bathroom with a private terraced area leading out onto the pool and garden. A second, third, fourth and fith double en-suite bedrooms are set in separate pavilion style buildings all with separate entrances with views over the gardens, pond and swimming pool.
The property has a fully fitted western style kitchen and modern bathrooms through out.
The terrace around the pool has ample sun-loungers with thick mattresses and steps that take you down to the gardens. Providing very versatile accommodation this property is perfectly suited for two families, or a group of friends, to share.
Its design gives a very natural and comfortable feeling and the layout of the pavilions, and the surrounding grounds, ensure that guests can always find their own space to relax in total privacy.
The property stands alone and so no area is overlooked. However, although the property is in a serene, secluded and private location, the island’s beaches, shops, restaurants and other amenities are all within easy reach to guarantee an all round holiday experience.
