Absolute Beachfront in this 5+ Bedroom Holiday Pool Villa in Lipa Noi

Absolute beachfront when you rent this 5 + 1 bedroom, 5 bath holiday home. Next to the beach is the 11-metre private swimming pool, with a large alfresco dining sala at one end, looking out to the sea. Behind the sala, set in the well-maintained gardens, is the glass-fronted living, dining and kitchen pavilion. To the other side of the garden is the master suite with an unobstructed sea view. The four guest bedrooms are arranged in a pair of pavilions just behind the master suite and living pavilions, each with its own furnished veranda.

Alongside the tennis court, which is shared by the sister villa, is parking space for two cars and staff accommodation with back-of-house services.

The social heart of the villa is the bright living and dining pavilion, with its huge rustic wooden table, large comfortable sofas facing a wall-mounted TV screen and broad glass doors opening onto the garden and sea views from two sides. Above the dining area, under the eaves of the traditional Thai peaked roof, and reached via a spiral staircase, is a multi-purpose mezzanine room that could be designated as a children’s play area or massage room.

The villa’s 11-metre infinity-edge pool has a spacious deck furnished with sun beds for admiring the wide sea view while topping up your tan. The beautifully maintained garden is ornamented with richly scented frangipani trees and pots of brilliant bougainvillea and royal lotuses. Alfresco dining is a treat in the beachside sala, just a few steps away.

The master suite is huge, its bright airy bedroom boasting panoramic views of the ocean. Behind the sleeping area is a spacious living and dressing room with comfortable chairs, a large TV and a capacious wardrobe with safe. To one side of this space is the large bathroom, with rain shower, large vanity and freestanding bathtub. Bathers can open the frosted glass doors next to their tub to enjoy sea views while they soak.

Under the sloping eaves above the master suite is a mezzanine bedroom furnished with a queen-size bed. This room shares the master suite’s bathroom and, together, they are perfect for families.

The four guest bedrooms are identical with the exception that three are king-bedded and one has twin beds. Each also has a desk area, an armchair and outside on the veranda, chairs for enjoying that first coffee of the day. All rooms have ensuite bathrooms with rain shower, twin vanities and a large wardrobe with safe. All bedrooms are fully air-conditioned.
