Dear friends,
We rested this beautiful villa in January 2011. Our vacation was memorable largely thanks to this home.
I would not call it a house but a whole complex of leisure and relaxation. The villa consists of three separate buildings, and all the bedrooms are separated from each other. Therefore, nothing will get in the way of your comfort. The villa has a huge table under a canopy where it is very comfortable to sit everybody at dinner. The villa is equipped with everything necessary for comfortable living and work, there is wireless internet access, separate work desk with a printer, a large TV (though there are no Russian channels) but we have used the DVD player. All rooms are air-conditioned, so in the heat of the day you can comfortably sit in front of a huge TV in the cool air conditioning with a glass of wine or beer. It was so nice to find table tennis and all the accessories for table tennis. It is very exciting to play tennis, then dip in the pool and bask in the sun. Just wonderful that the owners of Villa have installed near the pool a small bar with separate refrigerator and sink, I quickly mastered the profession of the bartender, and the next day, I delivered excellent cocktails straight to my friends in the pool. In the spacious kitchen you will find all the necessary crockery and utensils. Try roast tiger prawns with garlic sauce - it's just delicious ... fresh prawns are sold for 180 baht (about 180 rubles) per kilogram in the markets in nearby Chalong. A definite plus is having a full kitchen that you can prepare meals in for their children. People who have been abroad for a long time know how hard it is to feed their children unfamiliar foods. Well, the location of most houses within the complex Baan Bua is very convenient, very close to the exit to the beach (20 minutes walk or 3 minutes on a scooter), almost no neighbors, ie no noise in the evenings.
Well, a few hints to future visitors:
Close to the exit on Soi Naya between the Creperie and the DaVinci restaurant (very expensive for Thailand) is a wonderful Thai cafe.
The nearest gym is behind the DaVinci restaurant.
Next to the DaVinci restaurant you can rent a car for 1000 baht per day, or a moped for around 200 baht.
For foods, we would recommend Tesco Lotus near Phuket town. We compared the prices with the Big C, and Tesco is cheaper.
There is an Alcohol and Beverage wholesale store on the way to Tesco on the highway on the left (if you drive from the villa).
Water is best to buy in white 20-litre bottles, initially you give 100 baht deposit for the bottle, and 10 baht for clean water. It costs 10 baht to fill the bottle, and when you leave you can return the empty bottles to the store and get your 100 baht deposit back.
Try to order food at home (there are menus next to the phone). The order usually takes 20-30 minutes. Surprisingly delicious pizza.
If there any domestic issues do not hesitate to contact the administration complex. There are very nice girls who always help you.

What a fantastic place to stay. The house has everything you need to enjoy a great holiday. I read the books in your library, swam in your pool and watched the birds on the lagoon in the evening. I will be back!

We loved the peace and tranquility in Baan Bua. Your house has those lovely touches to make us feel at home. The design of house makes it perfect, so that we had our own space. The salt water filtration was fantastic for my hair and skin -- no funny colours!

We have spent the best two weeks of our lives in this wonderful house. Playing table tennis in the evening was a highlight, but we all laughed the huge pool and the games we played in it! We will be back.
