    Huge estate that has a combined 24 rooms made up of 5 villas. The villas are built on the lush tropical hills overlooking Bophut Bay and out into the sea. Bophut Beach and the famous Fisherman’s Village are just a 10-minute car ride away from this private estate. Highly recommended!

The interior, the.. every detail is stunning visually and made us feel very fortunate to be surrounded by such beauty. Great taste and decoration. Pocky has been so well taken care of. We loved learning Thai words and Blues creations with the service and towels we have source of delight. Honestly, we enjoyed an experience that met and exceeds our hopes and expectations and took us on a little adventure trip dreamland. We will be coming back. We will absolutely recommend other come here and we could not be more grateful, appreciative or impressed. Thank you Pocky , Blue and Ao, you guys are the best. Pocky is a super chef.

    OMG!

    What can I say except the images do not do the 6 bedroom justice. The villa is 8 years old and one of the first with a cinema room, games room, gym, billiard room, karaoke room, tennis court, industrial restaurant grade kitchen and a pretty cool kids room. They also have a boxing ring which is a first for any villa that I have seen in Asia. If you can afford it, Book it! All of the villas have a similar style but sadly none of the cool extras like Praana within the Panacea estate.

    “A perfect family retreat”

    We are a family with three kids (9,11 & 17) and spent 7 nights at the Kalya Residence in March 2018. We were picked up at the airport and having travelled on a long-distance flight arriving early in the morning it was very convenient with an early check-in (we also took advantage of the late check out option when we left)

    As there were 4 bedrooms, the kids had their own bedroom with TV, Wifi and complimentary minibar with a daily ration of sodas and chocolate (this how you win the kids over..). It was nice for them to have a place of their own when they got tired of their siblings.

    Daily complimentary laundry service (very convenient for families)

    The kitchen and living room area is elegant and spacious. TV with an excellent surround system made for a couple of good movie nights for the whole family.
    Sonos loudspeakers inside the house and outside by the pool and the outside dining area. Huge infinity pool with a great view of Koh Samui and the ocean. The pictures do not lie.

    The service is magnificent and the staff and House Manager were always present if we needed something. Always friendly and with a big smile. You get the feeling that you are living in house that is also a 5 star-hotel and your family are the only guests.

    The breakfast is spectacular and you may choose from a wide range of breakfast options. The lunch and dinner options are also great and not very pricey compared to the better/mid range + restaurants in Koh Samui. We chose to dine by the pool at the house most nights. The Wine selection at the house is ok but not like you are used to from Europe. The House Manager recommended a decent wineshop at Chaweng, so we could stock up a few bottles and store in the wine cabinet at the house.

    Make sure to take advantage of all the extra’s on offer. We had a Yoga Class, Thai Massage and a Thai cooking class. It was great fun for the whole family. The House Manager also helped us hire a boat for a trip to some good snorkelling sites and came along to make sure everything worked out according to plan (which it did).

    The retreat offers a complimentary daily round trip transfer and we took trips to the beach as well as shopping excursions. You get a mobile phone on arrival with the House Managers contact details so we just called her 30 minutes prior to pick up from the city. Worked perfectly every time.

    As there were no guests staying at the largest house we could use the tennis court for free. The kids also took a Thai Boxing class at the boxing ring. The coach was excellent and the kids really enjoyed the lesson.

    Panacea is top notch all the way. The kids loved it and we had one of our best holidays ever. If you have the possibility to stay here I am confident you will not be disappointed. This is a perfect family retreat.
    Go for it!
