The entrance to the villa opens into an airy, open living, dining and kitchen area. Here, cloud white walls soar to meet a vaulted ceiling and spectacular skylight. Slip off your shoes and feel the cool of hardwood floors beneath your feet. The beachy vibe here instantly invites a laid-back, holiday mood.

Two separate lounges each feature inviting cushioned furnishings. Nibble snacks and sip chilled drinks in front of the flat screen TV. Or grab a novel from the book-filled shelf.

A chic, all-white kitchen offers all the essentials for easy meal prep. In the mornings, fire up the cappuccino machine, then dig into breakfast pancakes around the six-person dining table.

Chances are you'll want to spend most of your time on the villa's tropical deck. Swaying palms and ocean views sit before a plush seating area, and a teak dining table seats six. It's the ultimate backdrop for al fresco dining - expertly cooked by your private chef. While the kids play indoors, uncork a bottle of wine in time for Instagram-worthy sunsets over the Five Islands - an absolute highlight of a stay here.

The mood is mellow in each of the villa's five bedrooms. A floor beneath the main living area has two bedrooms with dreamy coastal views. One of the bedrooms has a sumptuous king bed, a Juliet balcony, and a flat screen TV with DVD and satellite. The second bedroom on this level has two comfy twin beds.

The floor below has another two bedrooms (one with a king bed and another with a twin), and more fabulous ocean views. The bedrooms are linked by an interconnecting door, so the adults can check on the kids during their holiday slumber parties.

On the main floor, open your eyes to hillside views in a fifth bedroom with a king bed, and a flat screen TV with DVD and satellite. From here, a wooden ladder leads up to a mezzanine sleeping area (suitable for children aged 6 and above). Little ones will love having this cozy retreat to themselves, with two single mattresses to camp out in.

Each of the main bedrooms also come with their own en-suite bathroom.

We want you to enjoy the holiday of a lifetime. To give you an experience that lets you truly relax and rejuvenate. That's why everything about our service is tailored to you. Nothing less than 5-star luxury.

For instance, you'll have a resident Thai chef to prepare lunch and dinner from the in-villa menus. Your chef will buy fresh seafood and produce from the market on a daily basis, then prepare and serve your gourmet meal in the comfort of your villa.

From the moment you arrive, you'll also have an English-speaking manager to attend to your personal needs.

Your villa is located within the 22-acre grounds of the beachfront Intercontinental Hotel. Stroll along a palm tree-dotted strip of white sand, fringed by warm azure seas. Enjoy lounging beside the waves, or book swimming and snorkeling trips to spot exotic marine life around the nearby Five Islands.

You'll also have access to fabulous resort amenities at the Intercontinental Hotel, including the world-class Thai SPA retreat, an ocean-view health and fitness centre, seven swimming pools, a kids' club, and a host of beach activities.
