| Located on the southern
headland of Kata beach with uninterrupted views of the
Andaman sea, this privately owned four bedroom, Thai-style
villa boasts a host of luxury features. It has three main
dining areas, 2 private pools including a children's pool
and ample outside decking surrounded by lush tropical plants
and foliage. The main
pool has a stunning infinity effect with water a deep marine
blue to match the shimmering sea beyond. Facing directly
west the villa is cool in the mornings and is in prime
position for the spectacular sunsets, perfectly enjoyed with
a cocktail in the sala perched above the water’s edge.
Kata beach, just five minutes
walk away is arguably the finest of Phuket’s beaches.
Relatively undeveloped, the gently sloping shoreline and
pristine sands make this the ideal swimming beach in the dry
season and the best surfing beach at other times of the
year.
The surrounding area of Kata
is home to some of the best Thai and Western restaurants on
Phuket, amongst them The Boat House, with its award winning
wine cellar, just a short stroll away.
Baan Kata Itsara is
inspired by Thai design incorporating four separate
buildings connected by walkways and gardens decorated
‘Aman-style’ with many Thai and Balinese carvings and
statues. From the hand-carved teak wood doors at the
entrance to the contemplative Buddha overlooking the lily
pond, everything about the villa’s tranquil ambience is
captivating.
There are four bedrooms in
the property, 2 master suites and 2 smaller rooms. All
feature many decorative items with the hardwood floors and
ceilings complementing the quality feel of the Asian decor.
The ceilings follow the roof line adding to the spaciousness
and natural cooling of the property. All rooms are fully
air-conditioned and furnished with top-quality linens and
mattresses.
The Master Bedroom room with
its large balcony overlooks the pool and out to sea. It
features a huge canopied four poster bed with en-suite bath
and shower, Cable/Satellite TV (BBC, CNN, HBO, Star Sports
etc.) and fridge.
The Main Guest Bedroom is
located in its own separate building providing a relaxing
retreat from other villa occupants. (Perfect for parents
wanting a little distance from their children just opposite
!) The bedroom also features a four-poster bed, en-suite
bathroom plus shower and a CD / tape player.
The Third and Fourth bedrooms
are located next to each other and share a well appointed
bathroom. They have twin beds which can also be made up into
comfortable doubles if preferred.
A well equipped children's
Playroom, located below bedrooms two and four, is provided
with its own TX, VCR and DVD player, a good selection of
suitable DVD’s and videos as well as many games and toys.
The housekeepers quarters
with Thai kitchen share the same building as the Playroom.
Dining and relaxing
facilities are located in the main building which houses
wet-weather sitting and dining areas upstairs, equipped with
TV, VCR and DVD, and downstairs, a western kitchen, sun room
and dining balcony. The fully equipped kitchen has an oven,
microwave, huge fridge and industrial strength liquidizer
for preparing frozen cocktails.
The balcony with its breath
taking sea views is the perfect location for a quiet
breakfast or candlelit dinner. Alternatively the sandstone
terrace provides a relaxing shaded area for entertaining
with seating for up to 10 people. For those preferring to
dine al fresco the tables can be set next to the pool.
The 2 ‘infinity’ pools (7m x
7m and 4m x 4m) have been finished with carefully chosen
deep blue tiles selected to mirror the colour of the Andaman
sea on a sunny day; the visual effect is quite stunning with
the view across the coloured water of the pools to the sea
virtually seamless.
Facing due west, the sala
provides seating for up to 8 people, and is the perfect
location to view the spectacular sunsets. In the daytime it
can be set with cushions as a relaxing area to enjoy the sea
breezes and the sound of the waves breaking on the rocks
below.
