Why We Recommend Villa Splash
Villa Splash occupies an elevated position in the Nathon hills with views across the Gulf of Thailand to Angthong Marine Park — a panorama that most Koh Samui villas simply cannot match. At US$250 per room per night in low season for five en-suite bedrooms and up to 12 guests, the facilities are remarkably comprehensive: a 22-metre infinity pool with colour-changing night lighting, a cinema room, a games room with pool table, a fully equipped gym, and a dedicated spa area with massage beds. It is part of the Lime Samui estate alongside Villa Spice and Villa Zest, which makes it a strong option for larger groups who could book multiple villas. The full staffing team — villa manager, private chefs, housekeepers, and butlers — means the service feels more like a boutique hotel than a rental property.
Our Favourite Features
- 22-metre infinity pool with colour-changing LED lighting — impressive during the day but genuinely spectacular after dark, and long enough for proper swimming rather than just a dip
- Views of Angthong Marine Park from the hillside position — a protected archipelago of 42 islands that makes the outlook feel wild and unspoiled rather than built-up
- Cinema room and games room with pool table — gives the villa real evening entertainment value, especially for families with teenagers or mixed-age groups
- Dedicated spa area with massage beds — book a local therapist through the villa team and you have an in-villa spa experience at a fraction of resort prices
- Floor-to-ceiling glass throughout the living areas — the open-plan design blurs the line between indoor and outdoor space, and the natural light is exceptional
Good To Know
- Nathon is on the west coast of Koh Samui — quieter and less touristy than Chaweng or Lamai, which is great for peace but means a 30-minute drive to the main beach and nightlife areas
- The hillside location means you will need transport for everything beyond the villa — the staff can arrange drivers, but spontaneous walks to restaurants are not realistic
- Peak season rates reach US$2,250 per night compared to US$1,250 in low season — the Christmas and New Year premium is significant but not as extreme as some competitors
- Sister villas Spice and Zest are on the same estate — if your group exceeds 12 guests, booking a second villa next door is a seamless way to expand capacity
- Angthong Marine Park is best visited by boat trip from the nearby Nathon pier — the villa team can arrange day excursions, and the proximity to Nathon is a genuine advantage for this
