Description

Ban Mekkala is a private home that has been designed to exentuate comfortable and convenient living in a tropical environment

Villa Name: Ban Mekkala

Ban Mekkala is a new home which has been designed to accentuate comfortable and convenient living in a tropical environment. An imposing entrance opens to reveal a truly contemporary home. The stunning location and spacious design combines with luxury, modern technology and high quality furnishings to create a hideaway for those seeking a relaxing retreat, or fun getaway.

Upon entering the villa compound, you are enticed into the residence over a peaceful stepped pond filled with Koi fish and the stunning view through the property to the glistening ocean in the distance. The main entrance to the villa leads directly into the cavernous interior of the combined living, dining and kitchen areas. This grand room situated on the second level of the main house creates a laid-back feel through the use of space, open-plan design and the stunning view that can be enjoyed from all angles through full length windows which run across the expanse of the building.

Contained within this area is the enormous gourmet kitchen, a twelve seat dining table, and the living/entertainment area furnished with modern Thai decor and a state-of-the-art audio/visual system equipped with plasma TV and surround sound technology which is linked to every part of the house (inside and out) so your favourite tunes can be enjoyed from wherever you are!

You leave this area through a large covered balcony and move down to the ground level via a staircase overlooking a waterfall feature that flows into an internal courtyard below. This level contains the six bedrooms consisting of three different styles (two bedrooms per design). All bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms with large walk-in showers and bath tubs, and there’s a TV/DVD player with individual satellite TV unit too. The ground floor of the main building houses bedrooms five & six and also a steam room. Moving down the established garden there are four more individual bedroom pavilions. Bedrooms three and four are the first two on either side of the central lawn and these rooms benefit from an additional outdoor shower in their own private courtyards.

Bedrooms one and two are the Master Bedrooms and the largest of all with the added their own personal surround sound stereos that can be isolated from the system in the main house.

At this far end of the property you’ll find the villa’s large swimming pool with incredible sunken sun benches. There’s an outdoor dining pavilion as well as a barbecue and kitchen for the ultimate outdoor dining experience. Beyond the pool is the peaceful Laem Sor beach.

Ban Mekkala is the ultimate getaway home that provides the best of all things desired. With an understated design style, its extensive living space and idyllic location provide residents with privacy and seclusion. However, when required, the added entertainment features of the property make it perfect for that family reunion, holiday with friends or wedding celebration.

Bob Reinicke - Jul 15, 2014   

My extended family of 9 stayed in this wonderful Villa for one week in June 2014. This turned out to be the proverbial "vacation of a lifetime". The Villa and staff exceeded our high expectations. The Villa manager, Fi, and her staff responded to all of our needs and desires. We had virtually all of our meals at the Villa, and I must say, the Thai and western food was absolutely superb. We decided not to rent a car, and instead used the Villa driver and van for excursions on the island. This was a really good move, and I'm glad that I did not have to drive in sometimes hectic road conditions. Fi accompanied us on all trips, including several to a tailor, where we all had custom fitted suits and dresses made. The outdoor cinema, which uses a projector and a large roll down screen, is terrific as we enjoyed movies most evenings via our iPhones and iPads using Apple TV. Before arriving at the Villa, we stayed several days in Bangkok. We never saw a military person or a demonstration, and always felt secure. Bangkok hotels and restaurants were almost empty, and we were treated like royalty. In my opinion, this is a wonderful time to visit Thailand.


graham_zink - Jan 01, 2014   

This villa is a very rare find...amazing beachfront which is perfect for long walks and a lush and spacious property perfect for a holiday get-away. We stayed with three other couples and all of our children...relaxing and many activities at your fingertips. The living area both near the kitchen and beside the pool is very comfortable with friendly staff who are excellent cooks. We look forward to returning!! Many thanks again From Shanghai, China


Jerrold L. - Aug 14, 2013   

The facilities are amazing with the attention to detail second to none. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The quality of the cuisine rivalled any top class restaurant. You will not be disappointed. From London


Scott H. - Aug 14, 2013   

We were greeted by super friendly and professional staff at the door, walked over a little beautiful coil fish pond into the main house on the upper level, and our eyes and cameras just could not stop appreciating all the details, the art pieces, the design of the space, the furniture...everything. All the rooms are so thoughtfully designed that every room has a view of the ocean and the pool. In-room amenities, decorations, atmosphere are so comfy and stylish that I can stay in the room all day. But why would I when I can open our glass sliding door and take a few steps to plunge into the warm infinite pool and watch the ocean and hear the waves! Or we could take the kayaks out for a beautiful sunset watch on the ocean. Or we could just hang out at any corner of this house, not going anywhere and enjoy a true vacation experience. When we did go out, we felt that the food prepared in the house by our staff was much better than the restaurants. This vacation home truly offers a fun, relax, comfortable, and worry-free vacation. We highly recommend this house for any group who is visiting Koh Samui. It was a magical experience for us. From California


Cortney S . - Aug 12, 2013   

I first attended my friend's wedding at Ban Mekkala and was so impressed. These two years I have been dying to return. Now upon my 20th wedding anniversary, I knew where I wanted to stay! The best part was knowing my family and friends would be touched by the beauty and layout of the villa. Every room was top class, clean, and well looked after. The staff knew exactly how to service yet let us feel independent. The serenity of the location was truly the best way to enjoy Samui. Top marks in every aspect. I shall return! From Shanghai, China


Remy - Aug 08, 2013   

This is a truly amazing trip for our group. It is so unexpectedly perfectly done. We arrived this Villa on 7/22 and greeting by the wonderful staffs with a cup and cold drink. We felt like home right at that moment. The staffs were truly amazing. They prepared all meals according to our request everyday. All the staffs were so professional and not overly bother our stay. We were able to hangout at the villa and somehow when we need them they appeared like Ninja. The most amazing impact is the layout of the Villa. it is so welcoming and homey. The large and open living room connect to dining area. The living room area is facing the ocean on the second floor, so we were able to hangout and enjoy the amazing view of the villa and the ocean. The living room walk downstairs that is the all the individual suites located. We can't help to take pictures to show off to our friends of this villa. Each suite has indoor and outdoor shower. As it's my anniversary, so we picked the master room, we were breath taking by the view of the master room. The master room has walls of glass door and windows so we are able to see the view in every angle. The U shape layout shallow pool allow me to sit in the water bench and work on my emails while everyone is hanging out in the pool. I will say this is one the the most family friendly pool design. Our most stay were hanging around this pool eating and chatting. I don't want to get too personal, but the garden and pool layout has host a perfect anniversary ceremony for us. We are truly feel the magical moment in the place. If I can continue go on and on.. I would just say, pls pay a visit to this Villa and you will experienced this Villa. I would come back over and over again if could. Hope you enjoy if you get a chance to visit. From Las Vegas


ShanghaiRhett - Aug 08, 2013   

It doesn't get much better in life than to experience staying at this beautiful paradise, Ban Mekkala. My family (wife and 2 children under 10) joined a group of dear friends to stay in this villa of 6 exquisite rooms for a week, and we celebrated our dear friends' 20th wedding anniversary. The staff were fabulous, the food was world-class, the swimming pool was fantastic, and the beach was isolated and great for morning/afternoon strolls. The open design and the common areas allowed both a fabulous opportunity to connect with others while still maintaining privacy when we were in our room. It was the best vacation our family has ever experienced in the world (and I've been traveling for over 30 years), and it should be on everyone's "bucket list" as a place to experience! From shanghai


Anna S. - Jul 14, 2013   

I came to Ban Mekkala with a large group of extended family, it was our second holiday at the property and as before we had a fantastic time. The property was in good order and everything we needed was supplied. The staff were very attentive and helpful without being at all intrusive and they were particularly kind towards our children. The pool was a delight with a quiet beach to entertain the younger members of our party. The food was delicious with all our individual needs being catered for by the very talented chef. I can highly recommend Ban Mekkala and I feel that it is particularly suited to larger groups/family holidays. From London


Elizabeth W. - Jul 10, 2013   

Our large family, 12 adults and four children under 6years, have had a wonderful holiday and go back every year. The staff are excellent, especially the chef who caters to us and the kids. The accommodation is luxurious and comfortable. Spotless linen, bath and beach towels provided everyday, the pool is big and surrounds the outdoor 'sala' ( eating area) Upstairs is the dining room and lounge with huge telly and music. We are going again in aug 2013. The staff look after our every need from transportation, laundry, beach barbecue, boat for fishing or watersports. We get picked up at the airport by the villa manager and all the staff are waiting to welcome us on arrival. From London


Chris S. - Jul 02, 2013   

This is a truly lovely place to enjoy your holiday if you are looking for a comfortable, relaxing and very well equipped villa. As a family we have been three times usually in Sept/Oct which is not the high season. The weather has been good with short sharp showers, but not enough to spoil the holiday. The staff are wonderful and nothing is too much trouble. The villa is situated in a quiet part of the island but within 30 minutes of more lively areas if you fancy a day/night out. The chef is very talented and produces wonderful Thai dishes to please all. Many of the bedrooms are situated to the side of the garden or near the pool, which is chlorine free and suits our grandchildren. The beach leading down from the gardens is quiet and safe for children. This is a lovely place to stay for our extended family and we will be going back again this year. From London,


Jennifer B. - Jun 25, 2013   

This truly amazing villa feels like u are in your own boutique hotel...with attentive staff catering to your every needs, five star chef that will cook up anything u desire, pool perfect for kids and adults with lounge sala to just chill, and when in the active mood you can charter water sports activities right to your beach front view. Did i mention the super relaxing massage you can order in to finish your glorious day. You will never want to leave this hideaway you wish u can call home. From Shanghai, China


LILLYBELLA4 - Jun 25, 2013   

The accommodation has all the facilities you need, pure luxury, you could not ask for more. The position of the villa is wonderful with direct access to the beach and superb views of the bay and sea across a beautiful infinity swimming pool, providing a very calm setting which is great for couples or family as it is such a relaxed environment. All the rooms are very clean and of an exceptionally high standard with extremely large bathrooms. The whole place gives the wow factor. The food is impeccable, so fresh and tasty would love to have a restaurant at home that could produce such wonderful meals. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. From United Kingdom


Jennifer Lin Barrack - May 07, 2013

What an amazing place to celebrate my wonderful mum's 70th Birthday. We've had a relaxing and very special time, thanks to Ta and the staff and their attentiveness. Can't wait to get home and show everyone the photos of this beautiful place.


Mike Gillett - Sep 23, 2011   

Just literally arrived back this morning having stopped over in HKG for 1 night. Everything about the villa was first class and far exceeded our expectations. The layout, the secluded location on the beach and the quality of the environment, were all that we had hoped for and more. A special mention however must be made of the wonderful staff you have there as they made the holiday for us. Ta (Villa Manager) was a perfect host and should be highly commended for her incredible professionalism and thoughtfulness for us even when she herself was facing some very difficult personal times with the sudden death of her mother. This same professionalism and warmth was also evident in every other member of her team from the maintenance man to the wonderful chef. Nothing was too much trouble for them and everything was done with a smile on their faces. They made a great holiday and a very special experience for us all. I will be happy to complete your questionnaire but you can probably already see that you will be scoring high in our books !! Only one minor gripe was that the beds were incredibly hard and uncomfortable which made sleeping a little tricky sometimes !! Many thanks and best regards Mike Gillett
