Villa Sanoh is a five-bedroom private pool villa at the highest point of the Samujana estate, above Choeng Mon on Koh Samui. It sleeps 10, with a cinema room, a private gym and a rooftop barbecue deck. The airport is 4 km away and Choeng Mon Beach 900 m.
The top of the hill, with a cinema downstairs
The sleeping floor and the entertainment floor are the same level. All five king bedrooms open to terraces and have en-suite bathrooms, and the cinema room, the fitness area and a lounge are beside them. The master is the only room with a bathtub. Living room, dining area for 10 and the kitchen are one floor up.
Outside, the infinity pool has loungers and parasols, and there is a patio, a garden, a covered terrace and a barbecue, with a second barbecue deck on the roof. A Nuvo sound system runs through the house, and backup generators are fitted.
Each morning breakfast is brought to the villa, and the manager will arrange boat trips, nannies or cooking classes. A private chef costs extra.
Insider Tip: The garden is on a steep gradient and the villa is the highest on the estate, so ask the manager to book the free shuttle for beach and Central Festival trips rather than walking back up with bags or children.
