Phuket island is undoubtedly one of the most attractive and exciting areas of Thailand. The local people are predominantly Buddhist and give everyone an exceptionally warm welcome. There are an enormous range of activities all at very low prices and geared to all different tastes and age ranges.
Phuket's rainy season runs from May until October, September being the wettest month. Even in the rainy season it is sunny for good periods of each day and the temperature is hot with daily averages still in the high 20's.

| Nai Harn area |
Nai Harn, Ya Nui, Laem Ka, Rawai and Freedom beach are all within 5 - 10 minutes and are extremely beautiful and undeveloped, ideal for romantic walks, family picnics or just relaxing in peace after a heavy night!
They are a lot quieter than the package tour destinations of Kata, Karon and Patong though this is where one must go for jet ski's, parascending and water skiing. Nai Harn provides the ideal base to dip in and out of these areas and also explore the whole of Phuket.
Thai massages are offered on Nai Harn beach, the ideal spot to relax in.
People flock from all over Phuket to watch the sunset and enjoy a drink on Promthep cape, just next to Nai Harn beach.
There is a large Muay Thai camp 5 minutes from the villa which attracts many foreigners wanting to come and train with local boxers. 1 Day training sessions are offered.
There are a range of excellent local restaurants catering for every taste; for very good Thai cuisine we recommend Ruean Thai. Mimmi's and Chao Khun offer excellent Thai and Western food. These are just a few of many restaurants in the immediate vicinity.
Snorkelling and diving trips go from Rawai beach, 10 minutes from the villa. One can also hire a speedboat and go around the many uninhabited islands just off the coast.
There is horse riding 10 minutes from the villa.
One can hire sea kayaks or boats on Nai Harn beach, sailing lessons are also available.
There are several local spa's and health and beauty centres.
There are ATV tours, elephant safari's and a snake show 10 minutes from the villa.
On Nai Harn beach there is a monastery and about 20 minutes away is Wat Chalong Buddhist Temple.
Excellent night life is not far with Kata, Karon and Patong 15 - 30 minutes away. There are also numerous small bars in the immediate area and two night clubs open 'til 6 am, these are liveliest in the high and mid seasons.
Phuket has a number of high standard golf courses; the closest one to the villa is Phuket Country Club golf course which is 20 minutes away.
Fishing expeditions run from Rawai beach.
Phuket zoo is about 15 minutes away and there is also great shopping 20 minutes away in Central, or for local markets Karon and Kata have a good range of stalls selling everything from fake clothes to watches, cd's, dvd's and tourist souvenirs.
There is great surfing to be had on Nai Harn beach at the end of the dry season and in the rainy season.

Hello Trevor,
We had a wonderful time in your very comfortable house and thanks for sorting out the sound system, which worked like a charm. All arrangements worked perfectly and Richard was super helpful every time we called! The new facelift to the villa definitely gives it a fresh modern feel.
We are so glad we stayed where we did and not around the more - unbearable, even though interesting to see - touristy part of the island. We are already thinking of going back next year!?!?!
Thanks again and keep us posted if anything changes with the villa.
Best wishes.
Ed and Muriel
Hello
We just wanted to drop you a quick line to say how much we enjoyed our time in Phuket. We loved every minute of it and the villa was superb. We will certainly be recommending it to anyone we know who is planning a trip.
Thanks again
Mike and Alex
Dear Trevor,
I'm just writing to thank you for allowing us to stay in your lovely villa over Easter. Everything went very smoothly and we have a wonderful time.
Best wishes,
Helen
Dear Trevor,
We feel good in your house and we think we come back someday. Nai Harn beach was wonderful. The lady Nui and her daughter have done the housework very good and we had nothing to do. We visited the west coast of Phuket and we agree that is was a good decision to stay in Nai Harn.
Best regards
Monika
…….. let me just repeat that my family had a wonderful holiday and thanks for
making great accommodation available and value for money.
Regards
Jacky

Iliffe Family:
We had a fantastic time and the Villa was fabulous!! We have already recommended it to a number of our friends and hope to return in the not too distant future. The airport transfers were stress free & extremely efficient and the daily maid service added to our delightful experience. Nong assisted us with the car hire and Richard was always available to assist, if & when required.
