Villa Saan

Saan, which means ‘peace’ in Sanskrit, boasts eight spacious bedrooms, a sumptuous home cinema, games room with pool table, gym with spa facilities and elegant living and dining areas. At the heart of this modern, tranquil villa lies a 19-metre pool with an integrated jacuzzi adding a vibrant flash of blue to match the sea and sky views. An experienced team of staff, including a villa manager and chef, warmly welcomes guests at Villa Saan. Phuket island highlights, including yacht charters, golf, cultural tours and white-sand beaches are all within easy reach.

At entry-level are the villa’s living spaces including a games room, cinema, living room, dining room and kitchen. The large master suite occupies the entire top floor of one pavilion while two more king-bedded bedrooms are on the top floor of the opposite pavilion. Four more bedrooms with sea-view balconies are set along a corridor spanning the villa’s length just below the pool deck, while the eighth bedroom is on the villa’s ground floor, alongside the gym and spa facilities.

Indoor living

The villa’s majestic entrance pavilion is a wonderful place to linger and relax, with its high vaulted roof that offers shade for the comfy sofas set in front of a burbling pool.

To one side of the entrance is the living room, a cool escape with an inviting white sofa lounging area oriented to view the sunset through floor-to-ceiling glass walls. To the rear of the room is a TV lounge with a well-stocked bookshelf and Buddhist artwork adding a sense of serenity. Sliding doors lead to the dining room and kitchen, a modern and rather sexy space with 12 red suede chairs lining a solid wood table. The open guest kitchen with a big wine fridge and modern appliances sits to the back of this area while across the entire front are glass doors that slide open to the terrace, furnished with a poly-rattan dining table. The staff kitchen, where the chef prepares an array of tempting Thai treats, is tucked away behind the guest kitchen. To the other side of the entrance is a games room with pool table, bar and entertainment unit adjacent to the sumptuous home cinema, fitted with projector screen and soft seats designed for an authentic cinematic experience. Downstairs is the villa’s gym, equipped with top-notch fitness and spa facilities.

Outdoor living

Stretching across the front of the villa’s grand entrance pavilion is the 19-metre pool with integrated jacuzzi, perfect for enjoying the sea views while soaking in cool comfort. Sun loungers line the pool’s length, while in the corner of the terrace near the games room is shaded lounge seating, a furnished sala and a barbecue area, a great spot to indulge in some sunset cocktails before firing up the grill for your seafood dinner. The gym on the villa’s lower floor overlooks the garden, carefully landscaped with colourful tropical trees and plants.

Bedrooms

Master suite

A truly romantic oasis boasting its own jacuzzi plunge pool with panoramic views and a double bathtub discreetly tucked away on the private terrace. This bright, king-bedded room is chicly furnished with a white loveseat and ottoman. Hidden behind the room’s desk area is a walk-in wardrobe and the luxurious bathroom where the rain shower’s glass enclosure gives it an alfresco feel.

Guest bedrooms 2 and 3

Two large king-bedded guest rooms share the top floor of one pavilion, each with fabulous sea views, private terraces, wardrobes and lavish ensuite bathrooms with double bathtubs. One of the bedrooms has a side terrace with a reflecting pool and outdoor shower.

Guest bedrooms 4 to 8

Four guest bedrooms are arranged side by side below the pool terrace, each featuring sea- and garden-view balconies and ensuite bathrooms with rain showers. One room is queen-bedded, the other two have twin beds that convert to king-size beds and the corner room is furnished with a super king-sized bed. Next to the exercise room, on the ground floor of the villa, sits the eighth guest bedroom with a super king-size bed and is ensuite. Spacious, bright and elegant, these rooms will appeal to kids and adults alike.
