If there were ever a place to stay forever, it would be Baan Kilee. Nestled on Koh Samui’s untouched western coast, this 8-bedroom haven spans 1.5 acres with 30 meters of beachfront on the pristine white sands of Lipa Noi, one of the island’s few beaches perfect for year-round swimming.

The villa’s open-plan design seamlessly merges indoor and outdoor living, with lily ponds, orchid-covered walkways, stone pillars, and wood accents. Doors and windows are crafted to fold away, welcoming the natural surroundings inside, while cedar roofs blend harmoniously with the landscape.

The views from Baan Kilee are breathtaking, offering sweeping panoramas of Samui’s iconic Five Islands and magical sunsets. Designed for family and wellness, the villa is an unparalleled retreat for all ages. It is wheelchair accessible and features a vast 22-meter infinity pool with sunken loungers, ideal for relaxing, playing water polo, or swimming laps at sunrise. A second pool, complete with a swim-up bar and pull-down projector, invites you to enjoy drinks or even an outdoor movie. A shaded sala provides the perfect spot for all-day dining and lounging, while the massage deck beckons for a mid-day spa treatment.

A state-of-the-art gym is on-site, and the Villa Manager and concierge team can arrange everything from private Muay Thai lessons to spa treatments. Committed to both personal wellness and the environment, Baan Kilee is entirely plastic-free.

Inside, the formal dining room impresses with a long wooden table seating 16, complemented by two swing beds, perfect for aperitifs or keeping children entertained. Kids may also disappear to the indoor movie room post-dinner. The Master Suite, with its high cathedral ceilings, occupies the upper floor above the dining space, boasting stunning views of Lipa Noi Bay and the Five Islands through floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto a private terrace. The suite’s en-suite bathroom features a sunken terrazzo bath and a striking glass wall separating the bedroom from the bathroom. It also includes a separate air-conditioned alcove, ideal for children or as a day spa massage room.

The Beachside Suite is enveloped in nature, with glass walls on two sides—one facing the pool and the other overlooking the sea. The Garden Suite is set amidst lush greenery, and both the Garden and Beachside Suites offer stunning outdoor bathrooms with sunken tubs perfect for stargazing. An interconnecting garden with a lockable door connects the two suites, making them ideal for larger families with younger children. The two Mezzanine Suites are two-story gems with white wood vaulted ceilings and vibrant decor. The upper level, accessible via an attic-style stairwell, is perfect for kids over 8, young adults, or friends, while a trap door ensures safety. Should guests prefer, the mattresses from the upper level can be placed downstairs for extra comfort.

Children will fall in love with Baan Kilee’s dedicated Kids Zone, featuring a playground with heat-resistant climbing frames, swings, and a weather-proof ping pong table. The Twin Bedroom, or Lily Suite, offers views of both greenery and water, with a wrap-around terrace that overlooks the kids’ playground, and has a connecting door to the children’s pool. The lawn, often a favorite for football games, can also be used for yoga sessions or private fitness classes.

As part of the Chai Talay Estate, which includes three exclusive beachfront villas, Baan Kilee is a serene escape surrounded by organic gardens and tranquil waters. For larger gatherings, it can be rented alongside the other two villas, making it ideal for family reunions, weddings, corporate retreats, wellness getaways, or events. Note: Bedding options may vary from room to room but can be flexible.
