"Family haven"
Coconut villas offers a perfect getaway from Singapore. The villa is in fantastic condition, clean & well kept, comfortable nicely decorated bedrooms and a fully fitted kitchen with provisions on arrival - which was a magic touch. The private pool and secluded gardens are perfect for both sun and shade.
The owners are warm, provided great service including a quick tour of the surrounding area - pointing out the better eateries and places to go, they also helped set-up the car hire and transfers to and from the airport... all of which helped to make a great holiday... all in - we fully recommend Coconut Villas, we had a relaxing enjoyable time and hopefully will be back sooner rather than later.

*Fantastic place to stay to explore Phuket, awesome service!*
This was our first trip to Phuket and with two boys in tow (11 and 8, one with special needs), we decided to go self-catering and with 2 bedrooms rather than a hotel room in a busy resort. We wanted to experience the culture of Thailand, not be in a resort where we could be anywhere in the world. We picked the Coconut Paradise Villas because of the area of Rawai - pretty quiet, but everything you need close by, plus locals living in the immediate streets. The location was just perfect and Phil & Chris, the hosts, welcomed us at check-in by going through everything we needed to know about the villa. We even had some food stocked in our fridge (including soft drink and beers) which was a god-send on our first night when we were unsure where to go and the local restaurant wasnt delivering food because of the rain, so we had something to eat there and then. With 2 bedrooms we all had space to relax and the boys enjoyed the private swimming pool. The outdoor area was lovely and well maintained every day. Phil also took us on a private familiarisation tour on our first free day there to show us around the local area and point out the good spots to eat, the local taxi/hire car company, the best beaches, markets, etc. It was fantastic service and Chris & Phil were always available to assist whenever we needed anything. The only downside would be the hard beds, but after a few nights the body did adjust! The villas had everything you needed including internet connection, fly screens and fully air-conditioned. We had a fantastic holiday and would definitely recommend Coconut Paradise Villas to anyone who wanted a relaxing self-catering holiday in Phuket!

*A pleasant surprise!*
I was surprised to find an oasis of calm in what is a very busy tourist island (Phuket). This villa has all you need and is set in pleasant and secure grounds. The staff were very helpful - even fixing our pool within 24 hours (having to empty and refill in its entirety) and meanwhile giving us use of their main villas larger pool! The welcome pack was indeed welcoming, with all you need for your first day or evening. Shops are within walking distance or a short drive - and there is a wonderful italian restaurant just up the road which was a hit with the children. I am convinced this is the only place to stay if you want to enjoy Phuket without being in a busy hotel or resort.

Idyllic.....
Highly recommended. Well designed area and well built. An oasis in the middle of the city. Great getaway. Well run by Chris and family! For sure, other than seeing other parts of asia - if we are back in Phuket, we are back at Paradise.
