Luxury Villa in Phuket, Thailand

Villa Vinson - Location

Situated in Bang Tao - between Surin Beach (Amanpuri and Chedi Resort) and the Laguna Resort, where there are various wonderful restaurants, bars and sea food venues on the beach. Water sports and world class golf courses are also available just a short drive away.

 

Bang Tao Beach is a 8 km long sweeping crescent shaped bay with a gentle slope and absolutely pure white sand and is fringed with rows of casuarina trees. The constant but gentle breeze on this bay has made Bangtao Beach very popular with windsurfers

 

Surin Beach is a tropical beach with pine trees rather than palm trees. The middle of the beach front is occupied by a dozen Thai beach-style mini restaurants serving up sizzling seafood to hungry visitors. For the careful swimmer Surin offers some good snorkeling opportunities at both ends of the beach.

 

Shopping in Bang Tao is markedly different than that of other west coast locations in that cheap and fake brand names are NOT the order of the day. The onus is on quality goods with a sharp leaning towards antiques, curios and exclusive clothing and accessories. There are also the rustic open-air markets that the locals use.
