Villa Emerald Sands is a four-bedroom beachfront property on Bang Po beach in Koh Samui, and the location is the headline: you are directly on the sand, with views across the Gulf of Thailand. Bang Po is on Samui’s quieter northwest coast, which means you get a genuine beach-house experience without the crowds and nightlife of Chaweng or Lamai. The ocean-view swimming pool sits between the villa and the beach, so you’re looking out over water whether you’re in the pool or on the sun terrace.
The property is split across two buildings. The main building has two king en-suite bedrooms with ocean views and a queen en-suite bedroom, plus a spacious living area with smart TV and a fully equipped Western-style kitchen. The second building has an additional king en-suite bedroom and a dining room, both opening directly onto the outdoor area. This two-building layout gives part of the group genuine separation, which is useful for families or couples sharing the villa.
The staff setup is comprehensive: a guest manager who greets you on arrival with local knowledge and recommendations, a private chef preparing international and Thai cuisine to your preferences, housekeeping, babysitting services, and an in-house masseuse. Koh Phangan and Ang Thong Marine Park are accessible for day trips, and the guest manager can help arrange excursions.
Why We Recommend Villa Emerald Sands
At $370 per night for four bedrooms, Emerald Sands works out to about $93 per room — remarkable value for a beachfront villa with a private chef and ocean-view pool. The direct beach access is what sets this apart: there is no road to cross, no walk to the shore — you step from the garden onto the sand. Bang Po beach is calm and scenic, and the northwest coast sunset views over the Gulf of Thailand are stunning. Having a private chef means dinner can be a proper Thai feast at the villa, and the in-house masseuse means spa treatments happen in your own space with ocean sounds as the backdrop. For families, the babysitting service adds genuine flexibility.

Good To Know
- Bang Po is on Samui’s quiet northwest coast — beautiful and peaceful, but restaurants and nightlife are a drive away in Fisherman’s Village or Chaweng
- Four bedrooms across two buildings (three kings and one queen) — the queen room is slightly smaller, which may matter for groups wanting equal rooms
- The beach is calm and shallow at Bang Po, which is great for children but may not suit guests wanting deep-water swimming right at the shore
- Koh Phangan (Full Moon Party island), Ang Thong Marine Park, and other islands are accessible for day trips — arrange through the guest manager
- The Western-style kitchen is fully equipped, though with a private chef on hand you may not need to cook
For a beachfront Koh Samui experience with a private chef, ocean-view pool, and direct beach access at under $100 per room, Villa Emerald Sands on Bang Po beach delivers genuine value in one of Samui’s most scenic and peaceful locations.
