Baan Asan is a seafront vacation complex that’s comprised of five pavilions highlighting contemporary tropical opulence. Spacious interiors are appointed with mostly well crafted, modern and chic furnishings, fixtures and pieces. At the same time, amenities are uncompromisingly top-of-the-line – for each and every guest’s utmost satisfaction. Baan Asan, truly, creates for you coastal vacation living with an ambience that’s definitely sophisticated and peaceful.
The villa has five air-conditioned bedrooms. The master bedroom, on the third level of the main pavilion, has a king-bed, a dedicated bathroom with a fitted bathtub and a rain shower, a kitchenette and a living area. This bedroom also opens out to a long and spacious, furnished balcony with magnificent views of the seascape. Four other guest rooms are in individual pavilions on both sides of the swimming pool – two pavilions on each side. All four bedrooms have king-beds, dedicated bathrooms with sunken bathtubs and rain showers, as well as living areas. All four bedrooms also have direct access to the swimming pool. Within two of these guest rooms, though, are bunk bedrooms especially for the kids.
The centerpiece of the property’s exterior is the 20-meter swimming pool. Plunge into its alluring, glassy waters for some unmindful wading, or for some splashy play. Then relieve sore muscles in the bubbly and heated waters of the pool’s built-in jacuzzi. Up from the water, you can lounge on cushioned, pool beds partially covered by large umbrellas on the poolside stone deck, or sit back on the fitted couch of the sala at the edge of the property.
On the sunny, airy and high-ceilinged ground level of the villa’s main pavilion is the living area. Around its luxurious and long couches as well as stylish chair, you can all assemble for amusing and animated sharing and storytelling. There are two dining areas. The indoor dining area – with its long and wide, timber wood table good for 12 – is right across the living area. The alfresco dining area – with its timber wood table good for 10 – is out on the main pavilion’s covered terrace. Whichever you prefer to dine at, you can all savor authentic Thai specialties – as well as foreign fare – whipped up by the resident chef at the villa’s professional kitchen in a separate room on the main pavilion’s ground level. Behind the living area is the media room where you can catch shows you’ve been following closely. Or, go on a marathon of your can’t-get-enough-of movies. The villa also has a gym and a library on the main pavilion’s second level where you can do your fitness regimen, as well as spend some alone time catching up on your reading.
In charge of carrying out the villa’s day-to-day services is a friendly staff headed by a manager backed by mostly housekeepers and security personnel. In addition to the chef, a babysitter, a driver and a spa therapist may, upon your request, be called in. However, their services will be charged separately. Car rental is also available.
Baan Asan is based within Taling Ngam Beach. Take a traditional, long-tail boat and set out to the neighboring islands. On another day out, get the prized catch at TopCats. Then get to appreciate nature even more at the Butterfly Park And Insect Kingdom.
10/10We were lucky enough to stay at Baan Asan for 4 nights recently and had an amazing time. We were a group of 8 adults and 2 young children and found the villa to be the perfect spot for our reunion. Baan Asan is located on the beach with a spectacular view of the islands just off the coast of Koh Samui (a MUCH prettier view here than the other side of the island). We were a large group that really enjoy spending time together so the enormous living and dining areas were well used - also the pool was the perfect spot to chill out during they day. The little pavilion at the front of the property by the water was the perfect reading spot during the hot afternoon, catching the breeze from the ocean, and the perfect spot for pre dinner cocktails in the evening. The FOOD was the best we had on the island - and we ate at some great restaurants from 5 star to beach BBQ - and it did not compare to Baan Asans chef! We also had a large birthday dinner at the house and the staff helped us to decorate the villa with balloons and flowers, it looked beautiful. Thanks to Aer and her team for a perfect experience!
10/10From the moment of arrival until departure, we felt immediately relaxed and at home in what can only be a truly stunning and magnificent set up for the perfect break and escape. Aer and her team were ideal hosts -discrete and helpful in good measure. The food everyday evening prepared and served by the resident chef were just to die for. The best Tom Yum ever was savoured here. We will definitely be back.
10/10The house was perfect for us (three couples with 5 small kids). Had an amazing week! The manager and other staff were super kind and provided truly amazing service. The chef made great Thai and Italian food. We had such a great time we never felt the urge to go anywhere else during the week. The pool and the private beach were wonderful. The rooms are also stylishly and well kitted out. But the house is truly a great place to rent because of the staff! They were exceptional and delivered above and beyond the 'call of duty'.
10/10Baan Asan provided the perfect holiday location for us to meet great friends from Europe. In total we were three families - six adults and 5 kids, the eldest bring 4 and the youngest 3 months. The configuration of the villa is perfect, with separate bedroom suites where each family could have some downtime. At the same time there is a large shared living/dining area with kitchen where we enjoyed fabulous meals prepared by the amazing chef. The villa comes with four staff, managed by Pool, who is simply wonderful. She anticipated all of our needs and met them with a wonderful attitude. Each morning we would discuss the menu for that day's lunch and dinner, and then our chef would go to the markets to buy fresh produce to prepare the meals. We also hired two nannies each day to help us keep an eye on the kids, and even though we never left the villa (except for a daily beach massage!), having some time to relax while the kids were entertained was invaluable. I really cannot recommend Baan asan more. Pool and get staff really made it for us. They are professional and kind and lovely - an absolute asset to the villa. Stay here!! You won't regret it!
10/10I was lucky enough to spend Christmas and new year at the baan asan. To say this was the most incredible holiday I've ever experienced (and I've experienced a few) is an understatement. I was lucky enough to have been with staying with 11 ( 3 kids and 8 adults) people who mean the world to me but I can honestly say the stay at the baan asan was amazing. Pooh the resort manager, couldn't have done enough for us, nothing was ever too much and you always knew you were in extremely capable hands. As for Teddy the chef , he too was happy to cook anything. The kids had more western style food, whilst the rest of us were keen to try anything. We also had an adult with a shellfish allergy which was also catered for at every meal, so top marks all round. Ann and the other fantastic gentleman ( sorry I can't remember his name) were also lovely. One minute you would be rising for breakfast and the next your room had a full makeover! The baan asan villa is full of modern technology inside and out, with a very modern feel. I honestly can't recommend the baan asan and the staff enough. If you want to relax and take in your amazing surroundings with a very modern feel, baan asan is for you.
10/10A number of us stayed at there for 5 nights. We were warmly welcomed by the management team who immediately made us feel very at home. The rooms are very well thought through, iPhone docs (Iphone 4 only, so bring an adapter for Iphone 5!) with stunning sunken baths to soak in at night and best of all an eco friendly pool that isn't full of Chlorine!! (apparently they use some kind of cutting edge on site filtration system, installed last year) Khun Phuu, the resort manager, is incredibly intuitive, discreet and will go the extra mile for you (even when we needed to be picked up at an ungodly hour late one night!) As for Chef, he can make great Japanese, western and of course some beautifully light, yet zingy Thai dishes that have all the depth of flavours REAL Thai food should have. The location also feels very secluded and private, in that there's no noise from outside as it's located well away from the main road, right on the beach. So do stay there, we'll be back for sure, not just for the location, but the food and the wonderful warm staff, who handled the kids just right too!
10/10I have just returned from another fabulous stay at Baan Asan. I have previously holidayed there with friends, and this time with family who were visiting from Europe. The accommodation at Baan Asan is truly of the highest quality. The design is modern and innovative, making use of the best technology to maximise comfort and convenience; and using the finest architectural design to make the most of the stunning ocean views. But what really sets Baan Asan apart is the impeccable service provided by manager Khun Poo and her team. No request was too small and the meals prepared freshly each day by the on site chef compete easily with the best fine dining available on the island. Add to this the facilities on offer (gym, pool, kayaks etc) and there really is no finer place to spend your holiday on Samui. The layout of the property makes it ideal for a gathering of family or friends where you can relax and interact together, as well as having the privacy of the individual villas when needed. I highly recommend Baan Asan and will be back there again before too long!
10/10We spent several times a few nights in Baan Asan and I’m sure we’ll visit it again soon! The guests have each their private villa looking straight at the sunset, with total privacy. Not only the villas but also the main house is modern with warm details. The staff is lovely and the food options are perfect and vary. This place is for us an oasis of relaxation combined with the luxury we love to enjoy on holidays. Beginning of April we celebrated my 50th birthday and the staff organized a perfect dinner on the beach in a perfect setting. They even decorated the scene with wonderful flowers. The food prepared by the chef was outstanding. To celebrate a 50th birthday in such environment does not make you feel older, but makes you understand that life is beautiful. We not only enjoyed the big pool and the private beach, but played Golf on the excellent Santiburi Golf Course, just 20 minutes from Baan Asan. We used several times the kayaks to explore the coastline. Ask the staff to arrange a Thai massage in the Salah… heaven!
