Villa Riva

The villa's semi-private beach is flanked by rocks and therefore very secluded. The views over the bay to neighbouring Koh Phangan are nothing short of breathtaking, with dramatic skies and crimson sunsets offering a true natural spectacle and the small cove that fronts the villa also boasting its own protected rock pool (not accessible during seasonal high or low tides). Fully staffed by an efficient team, including an experienced, multi-lingual Property Manager, guests at Villa Riva enjoy the very best in personalized services. First rate hospitality, combined with an incredible range of comforts, fabulous facilities and a dramatic oceanfront location make Villa Riva Koh Samui's most extravagant and engaging private luxury residence.

The main level begins with a majestic, stone-clad entrance that opens into a vaulted lounge and dining area furnished with fine contemporary Asian art and decor with wood and glass doors opening onto the large pool deck. The lounge extends into a spacious dining room with a 16-seater round solid Teak table, served by a fully fitted western show kitchen. A separate wet kitchen allows the staff to unobtrusively prepare meals for the guests.

On the upper Mezzanine level there is an expansive main lounge area furnished with a giant, 9-meter sofa, plus a pool table, an extended choice of books and gaming table for additional holiday fun and entertainment.

Heading down a few steps from the main floor, the mid-lower lever is a dedicated health and fitness area that includes a gym with the latest exercise machines, opening to the lower seaview pool deck, a dry sauna, a steam room, a large jacuzzi and a massage room for private spa treatments. A large changing area and shower compliment the resort style facilities.

The villa's lower level has a unique, 12-seater, fully automated cinema and video game room that is perfect for evening entertainment. Movies and lighting are controlled from a specially programmed iPad and the space even comes with its own mini bar and micro wave. A fitted wine cellar occupies an adjacent room, a wine cooler with a constant 18ºC and stocked with over 100 bottles covering the finest vintage and champagne from around the world. This floor also features the changing and shower facilities for the tennis court.

The Clubhouse opens onto a wide wooden multi level sun deck that is furnished. The main deck hosts sun loungers that borders the 32 meter infinity pool with built-in 8 person jacuzzi while the lower deck and its seaview boats several sofas. One side of the deck also features a roofed poolside relaxation sala or gazebo, while a second furnished sala is positioned as an ideal location for a BBQ for al fresco meals and drinks prepared by the private chef and the villa team.

Villa Riva is also the perfect venue for weddings, celebrations and corporate events as it features a specially designed, covered events platform with a marriage gazebo and a purpose built food and beverage service area, DJ podium, dedicated bar and guest bathrooms. The happy couple and their close family and friends can easily combine a dream wedding with a wonderful vacation in one of the region's most exuberant private villas.
