This sleek modern villa has jaw-dropping views of the shimmering sea and lush coastline. With its floor-to-ceiling glass windows and sophisticated minimalist aesthetic, six-bedroom Anavaya feels like it floats over the surrounding landscape. Located in a private estate on the island’s northeast coast, you’ll be well placed for visiting buzzing Chaweng Beach and quieter stretches of sand at Choeng Mon Beach.

The huge L-shaped infinity pool is a standout feature, located on the corner of the top floor for unparalleled views. There are plenty of outdoor relaxation areas too, from the colour-pop sunken lounge to manicured lawns and glossy balconies. Inside, the open-plan hub of the villa houses a lounge, dining area and kitchen complete with an island, so everyone can gather around for drinks and nibbles. If you prefer to dine al fresco, there’s also a large outdoor dining area. A private chef will be on hand to create your favourite dishes, while the concierge team can take care of any activities you wish to do during your stay.

The six contemporary bedrooms each come with their own ensuite bathroom and private balcony, so all guests can enjoy those views from the moment they wake. The master suite is incredibly spacious. Extras include a cool 3D cinema room, fitness room with cardio equipment and free weights, ping pong room – reached by a sleek spiral staircase – and a useful study. Anavaya is a modern oasis with all the high-spec amenities you would expect from one of Thailand’s finest villas.
