Villa Sapna, Phuket, Thailand

Villa Sapna in Phuket provides families and groups with a superlative, ultra-contemporary 5-bedroom residence that boasts an idyllic location on Cape Yamu – right in the heart of Phuket's unspoilt and largely undeveloped east coast.

Villa Sapna's unique cliffside position guarantees panoramic seascape views from every room, with the stunning limestone islands of Phang Nga Bay peppering the horizon to the north and the calming waters and forested cliffs of Sapam Bay to the south.

Minimilism meets sophisticated luxury at the villa, with teakwood floors, chic but supremely comfortable furnishings throughout the property, and glass-walled living and sleeping pavillions that allow guests to literally "live" the tropical vistas.

Villa Sapna's outdoor spaces also take advantage of the arresting views, with a wide sandstone terrace for sun-drenched relaxation bordering the villa's enticing 20-metre infinity pool.

The sun terrace extends onto lawned gardens, which offer the perfect spot for a barbecue, sundownerss, ball games with the kids or private weddings, while mature landscaped grounds ensure total peace and privacy. Guests can wake to watch the dawn, then relax as the sun passes gently over the island until soothing the soul with a sunset hue.

Three staff, including an on-site chef to prepare delicious Thai and western cuisine, ensure that the villa represents one of  the ultimate family or group holiday retreats available on Phuket.
