These villas are unique in Koh Samui. With their bold modern design by a top international architect and a location carefully chosen for its outstanding natural beauty, the villas provide the perfect blend of “contemporary tropical living”. The name is derived from the spectacular, lush hill site, offering peaceful quiet whilst being only minutes from the hustle and bustle of Lamai. Each villa offers a private infinity pool with stunning south/south-east facing sea views.
The bold angular features that make villas are designed to maximize light and panoramic views with huge floor-to-ceiling window fronts, while the spacious open-plan living areas are designed to accentuate the elements of “indoor-outdoor tropical living”. Natural materials have been chosen wherever possible – neutral colors, soft tones, natural wood, and stone – to allow the villas to blend into the hillside. In addition, many of the original palm trees will be left in place to maintain the “tropical island” feel. However, while many “modern” villas can feel “cold”, there is a particular emphasis on retaining a warm, homely atmosphere through carefully selected materials, colors and soft lighting.
The decor inspiration has come from all over the world and a great deal of attention and experience has gone into the design of living spaces and in selecting materials. White sand-wash terraces ensure coolness under-foot even in Samui’s bright sunshine; unpolished marble provides a non-slip finish to the pool surround; Jacuzzis are incorporated into the swimming pool (if chosen as an option), sleek high-end bathroom fittings and accessories ensure style and low maintenance; open-style stairs help to maintain a sense of “lightness”. Even the plot of land has been specially chosen because of its perfect balance of beautiful blue sea views against the backdrop of the stunning Overlap Stone mountain and its sweeping green hills.
The location in the South East of Koh Samui is just minutes from Lamai Beach, one of the island’s most popular beaches - 2.5km long with its characteristic stone boulders and waves that roll gently onto the soft sand. Also very close by is the Silver Beach with its beautiful beachside restaurants. Right below site is another small and quiet Beach. The location is ideal for water sports enthusiasts with one of Koh Samui’s leading water sports facilities just 800 meters away.
It is also within easy reach of Hua Thanon’s quaint fisherman’s village and the island’s most impressive Chinese temples.
Distances:
- International Airport 35min
- Chaweng Beach 25min
- Nathon Ferry Terminal 20min
High-end property developments are still rare in this Area, giving investors a clear advantage over the market. We expect Lamai to take off as a premium property location, resulting in higher than average returns on land Villas.
Lamai offers a lot of sightseeing sites including the famous Hin Ta & Hin Yai Rocks, the Chinese Guan Yu Temple as well as the newly built Pier. Fishing tradition is still very much anchored in the culture at the south tip of Lamai with it’s colorful, traditional fishing boats and the Fishermen Village, where most of the fisherman live.
