With room service, on hand world-class resort amenities, together with the privacy of an independent home, guests can enjoy the best of both worlds at Villa Totsaken.

With both an outdoor shower and bath, a private pool with hot tub, and ocean side position, this home imbibed the Thai concept of being close to the water and indoor living fusing with outdoor. For glamorous evenings under the stars, guests can enjoy drinks on the terrace, or sink into the hot tub as the sun sets over the bay.

The spacious terrace leads seamlessly to the private pool and hot tub, for a glamorous choice, while the ocean appears as almost an extension of this space. There are a double bedroom and a twin bedroom with a separate living space, each finessed gracefully, with home comforts and cosy appeal along with all the contemporary comforts in place, immaculate bed linen, and every little extra touch that makes a place special.  

Immaculate attention to detail characterises this unique home, with all the luxury extras such as slippers and robe, lavish toiletries, minibar and on-hand staff.

All the contemporary comforts are in place, from satellite television, air-conditioning and internet, while this chic home emanates Thai flavour, ornate hand-carved furnishings and the most unforgettable ocean views.

In the resort, there 6 restaurants, including an open-air beachfront eatery, two communal pools, as well as a gym, a spa and a salon. Boat rentals, boxing, and yoga and cooking classes are available, meaning guests always have plenty of choices. 

For an unparalleled Thai retreat, whether for a family or a group of friends, either seclusion and pampering or sight-seeing and cultural immersion, this home ticks all the boxes.

Villa Totsaken is only 50 minutes from Phuket International Airport by car and speed boat. It takes 30 minutes from the airport to Ao Po Grand Marina Pier and 20-minute boat ride from Ao Po Grand Marina Pier to reach this ultra-gracious retreat.

The journey there makes it all worth it: based on location alone, it should be swarming with tourists. And yet it’s not. Nestled in Phang Nga Bay, this region is known for its stunning islands, clear waters and the sheer limestone karsts that jut vertically out of the emerald-green water. 

For trips out, “James Bond Island” is an unmissable spot, and Koh Panyee also being one of the “must-sees,” they both offer a leisurely day trip cruising through the dramatic limestone islands, occasionally stopping to enjoy quiet beaches.

Leaving the pampering confines of the resort is barely necessary! But when guests do decide to venture out, entertainment options range from elephant trekking to white water rafting, rock-climbing on the famous limestone karsts, scuba diving and snorkelling among the tropical fish and kayaking through the beautiful clear waters. 

Cruising Phang Nga Bay Phang Nga Bay sees visitors enjoy mysterious caves, lagoons and jutting cliffs, as well as abundant wildlife. Most of the islands in Phang Nga Bay are uninhabited, and many of them have spectacular caves which you can only reach by an inflatable or fibreglass kayak. Koh Hong is one of the most popular of these islands, while Khao Khien is worth a visit to see the ancient paintings of boats and animals on the rock walls.

Phuket City has an array of vibrant markets, while the beautiful historic old town offers an array of iconic cultural attractions including the 45m tall Big Buddha, which is visible from a 5km distance and offers panoramic views when visited – particularly lovely at sunset.
