This absolute stunner of a villa is a haven of understated luxury set on the lush headland between Kamala and Patong beaches along Phuket’s west coast. Designed by Paris-based architect Arte Charpentier, the six-bedroom, fully staffed Villa Minh is an inviting escape for groups or extended families.
Perched on the hillside overlooking the sea within a private estate, Minh is a peaceful and private holiday home that has been built with care to preserve a connection with its glorious coastal setting. Extensive use of wood, stone and marble adds a natural touch to the villa’s lavish living areas both inside and out, while its collection of art and antiques catches the eye at every turn. The 17.5-metre infinity pool with built-in jacuzzi reflects the changing colours of the sky by day then lights up like a starlit night after dark.
Entertaining is a delight at Villa Minh, whether indulging in a casual barbecue with a few friends or hosting an intimate dinner. In-villa entertainment is easy with Minh’s excellent sound system, home theatre, pool table and modern kitchen-dining facilities, while its stunnning pool and tropical backdrop add visual panache outdoors. For a pampering pedicure or restorative massage, the private spa room offers professional equipment and blissful ocean views.
Elegance abounds in the bedrooms as well, especially in the two master suites with their marble ensuite bathrooms and timber ceilings dramatically rising above the king-sized beds. The four guest bedrooms offer flexibility for families and groups, with two connecting rooms and one with a pair of queen-sized beds. All bedrooms are connected by stairs and a lift, while a second lift links the top-level car park and villa entrance to the dining and living room pavilion below.
Guests at Villa Minh are cared for by a professional full-time team of staff including a villa manager, concierge and skilled chef, whose delicious and beautifully presented dishes make exploring Thai cuisine a treat.
Though private and secluded, Villa Minh is just 20-minutes’ drive from both Patong and Kamala, while many of the island’s top sights and activities are within easy reach. Minh’s villa manager and concierge are on hand to offer insights and assistance on things to see and do.
