Seven-Bedroom Ocean Villa

There are 4 of these, all at the point of the peninsula where the sea wraps round. The plan is built for entertaining as much as for sleeping: 7 separate king bedrooms, a central swimming pool, and a long sun terrace carrying the living and dining salas, which is where the evenings happen. Indoors there is a living room and a dining room, so a party of 19 has somewhere to be when the weather turns.

Plots run from 3,000 to 7,800 square metres and the villas differ — gyms, massage rooms and steam rooms appear in some and not others. It is also let down to two bedrooms for a smaller party. Its own Thai chef and housekeeper come with it.
