The Village Coconut Island, Thailand

Photo Gallery

From 1 - 5 bedrooms, the villas here are built for size with large kitchens and living areas downstairs and generous rooms upstairs, the majority of which are en-suite.

Of course, as with any resort, there are restaurants on site, including a newly opened (Dec '13) Japanese place.

Location

Maprao island is a virtually private island 3 minutes speedboat ride off the east coast of Phuket and the resort faces the equally stunning Rang Yai Island. With a 24/7 speedboat on demand to and from the mainland, you are never more than 10-12 minutes from the yacht marina and its many restaurants and bars should you need them. Phuket town can be reached in 25 minutes.

Rooms

The resort consists of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 bedroom Villas, all with their own private pools and all of them are detached and with ground and first floor. There are also now some conventional hotel rooms - Deluxe Suites and Deluxe Jacuzzi Suites.

All the rooms, even the secondary bedrooms, are very generous and the master bedrooms are all enormous, with palatial bathrooms to match, finished in marble and floor to ceiling tiling everywhere.

2 bedroom villas start at an interior area of 157m2, 3-bed at 254m2, 4-bed between 250-300m2 and the 5 bedroom villas are 326m2. The total plot areas range from 400 – 1,000m2.

Spa

The Tamarind Spa offers everything from an invigorating local Thai massage to a body scrub or pedicure. The prices at this spa are the most reasonable we have seen at a 5* resort in Asia for a long time so there really is no excuse not to indulge yourself.

Should you want to spread your culinary wings, there are plenty of good restaurants on Phuket to try, both in Phuket and in other locations, notably Mom Tri’s Boathouse on Kata Beach or nearer the resort in Phuket Marina (12 minutes door to door), Watermark, Skippers and Limoncello.
