The pool, with a shade of blue that matches the Andaman Sea, is the perfect place to cool down after exploring the restaurants, beach clubs, and attractions around the area.

Inside of this Phuket luxury villa is just as beautiful. The rooms, bright and airy, are tastefully decorated and have all the essential amenities. The living room, for example, comes with a 65” smart TV, while the kid’s room has a PlayStation to keep the kids entertained after sunset. And if you want the ocean to be the first thing you see when you open your eyes, the two main bedrooms boast floor-to-ceiling windows.
