Overview
Baan Levadee is situated in the Santikhiri estate and offers total seclusion and privacy. The villa comprises of an air conditionioned, open plan living space that opens to a wooden deck area with stunning seaviews.
This villa would ideally suit an individual or couple wishing to get away from it all and enjoy nature at its best.
Baan Levadee is crafted right into these granite hills, between huge boulders, and the stairs organically following the natural rocky curves. Its presence at once grounds you and uplifts you, balancing the soaring wooden roof above with the expanse of island-dotted seascape to the west and south, forming a seamless ying-yang of earth and water, nature and nurture.
You feel this sense of balance between the elements everywhere: the extensive gardens blooms with diverse botanical treasures lovingly planted and cared for, while at the same time the wild forest trees purposefully form an integral part of the landscape, providing homes and playgrounds for the many local birds and the occasional squirrel.
Baan Levadee offers much, but imposes nothing: private, but within easy reach to everything on Samui, giving you independence but with full seclusion, as well as security. You can choose to enjoy the detail of fine workmanship in the finish and appointments, or soak in the big picture view of the Gulf of Thailand.
You can hang out at the delightful community horizon pool just a few minutes from the house, or enjoy the easy ocean access and beachcombing on the nearby deserted south coast. You can order your meal prepared for you in the villa, explore local Thai eateries, shop and cook for yourself, or dine at one of many high-end dining options at nearby resorts. You may choose to book a massage in any of Samui's fine wellness sanctuaries, or find yourself simply sitting in the garden to listen to the buzz of the cicadas.
From the top of this high lot to the house itself it's a plant-stopping meander along pathways lined with exotic gingers, palms, forest ferns, orchids, carnivorous plants and spanish moss. But it's a fairly long walk nevertheless. Please consider this if you are coming with small children, or if you have any challenges walking up and down steps.
Or slow down, and take your time. There is much to enjoy in the carefully planted garden. Around any bend you may come across a stone bench for meditation or to take in the view, or a perfectly positioned water feature to slow you down and bring you into the moment.
While fronted by sliding doors and windows to shield from any occasional winds or showers, the house can also be opened up to take in the delightful breezes and to the sounds of birds, squirrels and the sea far below.
