Neighbourhood description:
Villa Sapphire is for couples that want a private and romantic setting with the most amazing ocean views that look over to the islands and also the mainland over 20 kilometers away.
Within 5 drive from the Villa there is the charming area of Laem Sett. Within this area there is local Laem Sett beach, which is quiet and secluded. Here one can enjoy and admire a beautiful sunset, and sometimes see the local fishermen with their long tailed boats come into shore. Located on the beach is the popular Thai style Cool Bar when you can enjoy good food and a drink whilst soaking up the tranquil atmosphere.
Also close by is ShaSa Resort, Centara Villas Resort and Samui Orchid which opens its doors to non residents and has many facilities to enjoy, including smart restaurants and bars.
There are many fine restaurants serving delicious Thai and Western food, coffee shops, mini-marts for your daily needs, well reputed massage shops, taxi services etc within 5-10 min drive of the villa.
Amphoe Ko Samui Stadium, only a 6 min drive away, is home to many popular sports events, where visitors can come to watch the activities. It is located in an attractive area, surrounded by a lake/reservoir where there is a football field, basketball etc and you can also walk around or jog with lots of shade. Also outdoor fitness park with brightly coloured exercise equipment which is free to use.
Less than 10 mins away by car you have the fishing village of Baan Hua Thanon where fresh fish, fruit and vegetables are sold daily at the local market and also the home of several small local shops, coffee shops, doctors surgery, 24 hour Seven-Eleven grocery shop with ATM, together with a Chinese Temple.
Lamai is a beach side tourist town a 10 min drive from the Villa. There are individual shops offering locally made souvenirs and clothes. When the sun goes down the streets come alive with lights from the night market and variety of restaurants serving excellent Thai and western dishes in the town and on the beach. Thai boxing is also popular and Lamai has its own professional and amateur boxing ring.
Nearby to the villa many of the island's main attractions are less than 10 mins drive away, which include Namsuang Waterfalls, Crocodile Farm, Elephant trekking, The Grandmother Grandfather Rocks, water sports, excellent Thai cookery classes, a snake farm and many temples, amongst others.
Here there still has the feel on Koh Samui of over 20 years ago, unlike the north of the island. We are frequently told by guests they find the Thai people in this southern part of the island extremely hospitable, and welcoming. In the north where it is far more crowded and touristy on the island there is not always the opportunity to discover the true warmth and charm of the local people.
Remember nowhere on the island is more than 50 minutes away. The southern part of the island, where the villa is located, remains pretty much unspoiled, especially compared to the north. It still has that rustic charm appeal that the whole of Samui boasted years ago. The beaches on the south remain pretty much undeveloped, due mainly to the shallow coastline.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host
Hosted by david smart
I moved in 2005 to Koh Samui from Cirencester in the UK. I travelled to Thailand and other countries in this part of the world from 1990. From the places I visited Koh Samui became clearly my favourite destination.
Inspired by the opportunity for business I made the decision in 2005 to move to Koh Samui and develop a new rental enterprise.
I created my own Flooring business when living in Cirencester. During this time I was also heavily involved in property development and property rental. This became a strong passion of mine, having created a large number of varying style properties in the UK. It was at this time I sought a new challenge and the idea and opportunity of moving to Koh Samui arose.
Since moving to the island I have created 15 properties, of which there are 9 luxury villas for rental, ranging from 1 to 4 bedrooms, with their own swimming pools, four with spectacular ocean views, and all with an individual and tropical style. This collection of stunning villas are known as Peacefulvillas.
There have been a great many challenges in developing villas in a vastly different culture and environment in which I was brought up in. The challenges at times have been stressful, demanding and exhausting! The rewards however have far outweighed the challenges and have been able to stretch my creativity and inspiration.
Living on the island and surrounded by the beautiful, tropical nature I don’t feel the need to be anywhere else. Peacefulvillas keeps me strongly motivated and busy every day, where I enjoy to meet people from all over the world who come to stay, and often return to one of our villas.
I have only returned to Europe twice in 20 years of living on the island. One was for three days in Milan and another for 24hrs in Madrid, both to watch the mighty Spurs play in the Champions League !!!!
Why they chose this property
I feel extremely fortunate in obtaining this very special and beautiful area of land on the residency of Sitara, located in the south of the island, where I have taken huge pride and joy in designing and creating 4 high quality villas in this tranquil and peaceful area of the island.
I wanted to design and create a very special kind of villa that would fit into this very beautiful and unique setting. The stunning ocean views, surrounding beautiful nature, superb granite rocks, lush tropical scenery with swaying palm trees at Sitara Retreat enabled me to create Villa Sapphire in these wonderful surroundings.
Staying at Villa Sapphire, guests can relax, and soak up the surrounding peacefulness of the beautiful nature and magnificent ocean views that are all around everywhere.
What makes this property unique
The villa also uniquely includes a complimentary automatic car within the rental price.
We provide complimentary pick up from your arrival point on the island to take you to Villa Sapphire and a return journey at the end of your stay (one in each direction).
Villa Sapphire is very popular for honeymoons and provides a romantic and exquisite setting.
This open plan tropical-style villa is located in the unspoiled south of the island, which largely remains unaffected by over-development that unfortunately blights the north. The villa is situated on the Residency known as Sitara, which provides 24 hour security.
The ocean views are spectacular, and unrivaled anywhere else on the island of Koh Samui. Villa Sapphire has been created to give a serene and peaceful ambiance in the daytime, for relaxing and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. From dusk, the villa provides a romantic atmosphere with soft lighting, where guests can wine and dine under the stars.
There is an exotic atmosphere with Villa Sapphire's open plan design, beautiful furnishings, soft lights and a plunge pool created in the centre of the Living area. Together you also have a beautiful, Infinity edge swimming pool, with spectacular ocean views.
We have 10 villas for rental in the south of the island. In 2020 we proudly completed luxury ocean view 2 bedroom Villa Moonstone at Sitara Retreat. This villa can also be rented out as a 1 Bedroom villa, and offers the latest design within the collection of Peacefulvillas.
I have lived on the island for 21 years and am happy to provide any information I can to help make your stay rewarding and enjoyable.
