phuket villas for holiday rental and more in asia

The Coolwater doesn't look or feel like anything else on Phuket, and as soon as you arrive at our sparkling, stylish hilltop village overlooking the Andaman sea in one direction and the jungled peaks of Phuket in the other, you'll know what we mean.

Each of The Coolwater's avant-garde hilltop Residences boasts its own private infinity-edged swimming pool, as well as elevated decks overlooking either the turquoise Andaman Sea or Phuket's soaring jungled peaks (or both). The buildings, strikingly designed and fashioned out of aluminum, steel, and whitewashed concrete, are set amid lush and verdant landscaping. The finishes are unashamedly modern, with many of the floor-to-ceiling windows doubling as sliding doors, letting in both the stunning tropical scenery and the cooling breezes that constantly whisper at this elevation. Your view over the valley below is of swaying treetops, village scenes, and the sparkling Bay of Kamala. The setting is serene and the houses are stylish, with all the comforts of home.

The villas were built to provide comfort with style, and luxury in harmony with the landscape. Thus, the developers have taken great care to preserve existing trees and vegetation on the property, to manage the grounds with environmental stewardship in mind, and to provide both stunning views and a sense of relaxed intimacy.

 

Baan Sairung - 3br

Baan Erawan - 3br

Baan Erawan occupies the highest point on the Estate. The edgeless swimming pool is designed to be part of the architecture.

From the dining and living room, and from the broad timber deck cantilevered out front, Baan Erawan boasts views of the ocean to the west and of Pak Bang Mountain to the south. The master bedroom looks over the jungle to the ocean beyond, and the master bathtub has a private elevated garden with a view of the tropical sky. From the fully equipped modern kitchen, you can see the pool again: its infinity edge buts up against deep tropical jungle and a tall palm tree sprouts right through the middle.

With an edgeless pool cantilevered six meters above the road that climbs up to The Coolwater's hilltop estate, you can't miss this Residence. The views are simply stunning from the pool, from the poolside patio, indeed from any room in this house: you look over the valley and the rooftops of the quaint village of Kamala, right at the sunset, with the Andaman sea glittering to the west. Baan Salawin has three bedrooms: each has either a balcony or a patio, each with a sweeping view. The master bathroom also has a huge soaking tub.

Baan Sarika - 4br

Baan Sarika is a vacationer's dream. This four-bedroom house is the largest Residence on the estate, and has the most comprehensive facilities. With soaring ceilings and massive windows, the living room peers across the Kamala Valley towards Panthurat Mountain, one of the highest peaks on the island. There is a separate kiddie pool on an upstairs patio, and a 95 square meter infinity lap pool that boasts a secret underwater room! From the separate servants quarters and stairway to custom designed furniture and aluminum millwork- no detail has been overlooked. In a house this size, you can really "get away from it all"- even with the whole family in residence, you can always steal away for an afternoon nap on the expansive patio or a quiet moment's reading in the dedicated library. The total area of Baan Sarika is about 700 square meters, decks and patios total over 240 square meters, and the lap pool is 95 square meters.

Baan Sopaa - 4br

With treetops literally brushing the sides of the curving edgeless pool, here's a place to find serenity in style. Nestled into the side of our hilltop, Baan Sopaa cantilevers out among jungle fruit trees towards Panthurat Mountain, with a bird-filled wetland stretching out below. The feeling here is quiet seclusion, and the execution is all about understated good taste. Comfortable modern furniture and a gourmet-ready kitchen make your tropical escape complete. The scale and seclusion of this house makes it a very appealing getaway, and the materials- sandstone, slate, rattan, and silk- give it a special warmth. With four bedrooms on two separate levels, this house accommodates family or friends with both privacy and intimacy. The total area of Baan Sopaa is about 500 square meters, including almost 160 square meters of patios and 50 square meters of edgeless pool.

Baan Mayom - 3br

Baan Mayom is perhaps the most secluded and the most dramatic house at The Coolwater. Situated at the southeast extremity of the Estate, Baan Mayom soars out of the jungle. Its swimming pool and deck, some 12 meters above the forest floor, literally form part of the jungle canopy. From the master bedroom, kitchen, and living and dining room of Baan Mayom, you look down at swaying treetops, and up at the towering mountain at the back of Kamala valley. The two guest bedrooms in Baan Mayom give a sense of quiet seclusion, like you've entered your own private leafy sanctuary. Each guest bedroom has a dedicated balcony suspended among the trunks of exotic tropical trees. The master bedroom is complemented by a stunning, sweeping panorama of a lush island peak. Off the master bedroom is an open-air bath and shower paneled in warm sandstone, and a cozy reading room/office space cantilevered over the forest. The total area of Baan Mayom is almost 460 square meters, decks and patios total about 165 square meters, and the pool is nearly 60 square meters.

The Coolwater estate overlooks the quiet village of Kamala Beach on Phuket’s west coast. The beach at Kamala is wide, gently sloping, and uncrowded. The water is clear and warm, and the surf is typically gentle - it’s a perfect place for swimming and relaxing.

The village of Kamala Beach offers a number of fine western and local restaurants, good deli and coffee shops, and many services ranging from dive shops to tailors, from travel agents to spas.

Phuket International Airport is about half an hour away, the nightlife of Patong is 10 minutes to the south, the Laguna Resorts are 10 minutes to the north, the cultural and shopping attractions of Phuket Town are 25 minutes to the east, and to the west, the sparkling Andaman Sea spreads out right below your feet- you can be on the sand in 5 minutes.
