The property is fabulous! The host was very helpful and good to communicate worth, but once we arrived the staff don't really speak English (since it was promoted in English and the host communicated in English we thought it would be ok) and even with translator apps it was very much a struggle. Communicating in general was very difficult (to order food, to arrange rides, etc). Staff is very nice and try hard, but it's a bummer when you cannot communicate even the most basic of needs. Grounds are absolutely stunning!! Water falls, greenery, trees, orchids and more. Gorgeous. The pool is out of a magazine! If only there was a place to lay by the pool or even somewhere to sit/lounge comfortably by it, it would have been easier to enjoy. The house is very posh and lots of unique and wonderful design accents! A/C to stay cool. Nice, large layout, on site laundry, they will cook for you and clean everyday (breakfast included, other meals extra). Beauty everywhere. If you like to do things for yourself or have items in the kitchen, this isn't your place. This is somewhere to go to get pampered and have them take care of you (as long as you speak some Thai). Overall, it was a wonderful place. It's about 30 minutes outside of town, so plan for your food/ meals before heading back to the villa. A little bit of a drive to anything, but that was worth it for the quiet and privacy. Staff will keep you stocked in bottled water so don't worry about that.
