Your holiday at Praana Residence begins with a complimentary airport transfer and includes the services of a chef, housekeeper, butler and security guard. You’ll be treated to freshly prepared cookies and smoothies throughout your stay, as well as a yoga or massage session and Muay Thai, tennis or cooking lesson on the private outdoor boxing ring and tennis court. Two infinity pools, one of which has a swim-up bar, and a sprawling terrace with a row of lounge chairs provide ample room to soak in the tropical sun, while a pergola-covered outdoor sitting room is a shaded spot to relax. In the evenings, cook at the outdoor kitchen and dine at the al-fresco dining area or step inside to enjoy the home theater, games room or the dance floor in the private nightclub. Kids will love the separate nursery and playroom, while adults will want to indulge in the steam room and sauna.
The villa’s beautifully designed interiors emphasize the surrounding forests and sea with walls of glass covered by traditional peaked roofs. In the great room in the main pavilion, natural-fiber rugs help define the sitting and dining areas in an organic way, and white upholstery and cane-backed chairs create a refined yet casual look. Though your stay includes chef service, the great room also has a fully equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar, so cooks can still be in the middle of the conversation and enjoy the panoramic views.
Each of the villa’s six bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom. There are five bedrooms with king beds, including one master suite with a hot tub, ocean views and a balcony, one with ocean views and a balcony and one that opens directly to the terrace. The sixth bedroom has two twin beds. After a day at a nearby beach or practicing boxing or tennis, the bedrooms’ neutral tones and natural textures are a serene respite.
