Villa Tranquil Residence 1
Why We Recommend Villa Tranquil Residence 1
At just $70 to $110 per night for a beautifully designed hillside retreat above Lamai Beach, Tranquil Residence 1 is one of the most compelling value stays on Koh Samui. This is not a basic budget apartment. It is a thoughtfully designed contemporary residence with hotel-grade amenities, a private hot tub overlooking the ocean, and a dedicated staff team including a multilingual guest manager. For couples seeking a romantic escape or solo travellers wanting a stylish base to explore the quieter south coast, this residence delivers a polished experience that punches well above its price point. The hillside setting means you trade beachfront access for sweeping sea views from your own private balcony, a trade-off that most guests find more than worthwhile.
What Makes It Special
Ocean Views
Private balcony hot tub with ocean views. The covered terrace features a heated spa tub where you can soak while gazing out over the Gulf of Thailand, making sundowners and stargazing effortless.
Contemporary minimalist interiors. The
Contemporary minimalist interiors. The all-white palette accented with natural wood and rattan creates a serene, magazine-worthy atmosphere that feels far more luxurious than the nightly rate suggests.
Private Chef
Full staff support at no extra cost. A multilingual guest manager, daily housekeeping, and 24-hour security are all included, with a private chef available on request for an additional fee.
Fully Equipped Kitchen
Fully equipped kitchen with bar seating. The modern kitchen and counter-bar setup is ideal for casual meals in, and alfresco dining on the balcony seats four comfortably.
Beachfront Location
Quiet Lamai location with easy access. Positioned on the hillside above Lamai, you are just five minutes by car from one of Koh Samui least crowded beaches and walking distance to the Lamai Night Plaza for evening shopping and street food.
Before You Book
Getting Around
Hillside location requires transport. The residence sits above the beach, so you will need a car or scooter to reach the sand. Rentals are available through the villa team at reasonable rates.
Villa Layout
Compact but clever layout (36 sqm). The open-plan design maximises the space with a combined living, dining, and kitchen area plus a separate king bedroom opening onto the balcony. Ideal for two guests, but not suited for families.
Villa Staff
Chef service is an extra charge. While housekeeping and security are included, the private chef incurs a separate fee. Breakfast can be arranged at cost of groceries plus a preparation charge.
Pool Info
Silver Beach is the nearest swimming spot. A short drive away, this sheltered cove offers excellent snorkelling and is far less touristy than Chaweng or Bophut.
Airport Transfer
Airport transfers cost $25 each way. The villa is approximately 30 minutes from Koh Samui Airport, and the guest manager can arrange all transport including boat and scooter rentals.
