Eight-Bedroom Ocean Villa

There are 2 of these, and unlike the Eight-Bedroom Garden Villa every one of the 8 bedrooms here is a full king room. It is built for gathering: wide open-air living and dining salas, a large central swimming pool and a courtyard, arranged so that 19 people have somewhere to be together and somewhere to be apart.

The living and dining rooms indoors are big, and at least one of the 2 has its own gym. The chef cooks home-style Thai food, which after a week is the right answer. Plots run from 3,200 to 7,400 square metres.
