    We recently held our wedding at Villa Kalyana in Koh Samui, Thailand with the wonderful Rebecca at the helm and as our wedding planner. We literally had the best wedding you could hope for, and we wanted to leave this review for other couples who might be considering Kalyana for their special day.

    We booked our wedding in October 2018 and it was originally planned for May 2020, unfortunately, due to pandemic we had to postpone our wedding 3 times, but we finally said I do Friday 25th February 2022. As you can imagine dealing with multiple postponements on our side was tough, especially given we also booked the travel for all our guests including further stays in Koh Phangan and Bangkok after the wedding week. But Rebecca gracefully was dealing with multiple weddings being postponed and moving goalposts every single day, and you would never have known it. She patiently supported us every step of the way and without a doubt made Feb 22 happen, with us both dealing with ever changing Government rules of entry, Rebecca moved heaven and earth to gain SHA+ status allowing the wedding to finally go ahead. It felt like Rebecca became an immigration, travel, government policy expert along with personal therapist to make this happen. We are so grateful and as are our 37 guests who came with us and my ever so proud parents.

    Putting that aside our wedding week was phenomenal! We hosted 3 events the first being a surprise birthday party on the Monday after we arrived on the Sunday for some of guests who had significant birthdays during lockdowns. Rebecca and the team organised an outdoor BBQ, DJ and Karaoke which everybody loved. We then hosted a further surprise on the Wednesday with a boat party on a floating bar called Heaven, this was the most fun day and because we couldn’t attend the full moon party Rebecca got us lots of Neon face paints, fancy dress, wings you name it she got it and it turned it into our very own full moon party floating out in the bay in the Samui.

    Finally, we then got to the wedding day on the Friday, and everything went to plan, and we couldn’t have wished for a better day. Rebecca and Beau managed all our suppliers and only choosing the very best to meet our brief which she massively guided us on every step of the way. We had the most stunning décor and the ceremony was just stunning in front of the ocean, we further surprised our guests (we LOVE a surprise) with our best friend marrying us and a Drag Queen stopping the ceremony to perform it should have been me (see social media, legendary) and then on to a Thai Water ceremony which we highly recommend, it brings all your guests into the ceremony and it feels quite spiritual and has so much meaning.

    We then had cocktails & canapes, a beautiful wedding breakfast which every said was the best Thai food they have ever tried! We went for the fire show which the guests LOVED and the pictures are out of this world and finally we danced the night away with a Saxophonist and DJ which bought it all together really well.

    So again, we say massive thank you to Rebecca, Mamm, Beau and all of the team at Villa Kalyana. You are the very best at what you do, and you will forever be in our hearts, you made our dreams come true and we are eternally grateful.

    Anyone considering getting married in Samui, consider Kalyana it’s the best decision you will ever make.

    This place has so many 5 star reviews. All of these are completely accurate about both the service, experience and especially Bec. We’re here to tell you about our wedding at Villa Kalyana.

    Before even booking, we spent a full day of our holiday driving around Koh Samui looking at weddings venues. We didn’t find anything inspiring and went back home to Australia a little disappointed.

    But then we found Villa Kalyana online. We made an enquiry, and from the outset Bec was nothing short of amazing.

    She truly made our wedding happen. She thought of everything to make our dream wedding a reality (more than we could have even considered). Her extensive knowledge, contacts around the island, and the staff around her made it all incredible. Her professionalism aside, Bec is warm, positive and genuinely cares and is invested in making your wedding the best that it can be.

    The villa itself is simply amazing. The wow factor you get when you arrive is just on a whole other level, and made a huge impression on us (even after we spent a LOT of time looking at the photos). It was breathtaking. It was like our own private island with all our wedding guests, we wish we’d stayed more than the 4 nights we’d booked.

    The food during our stay was fantastic, and we give massive props to the chefs for accommodating everyone.

    Speaking of staff, Mam and Sonia and the rest of the crew were incredible. They were so good with all our guests, especially the kids we had among our party.

    The wedding day itself was like a fairytale. We’d seen photos on Facebook of past weddings and thought we’d have to spend an exorbitant amount to achieve that, but it was all achievable in our budget. Bec’s hands on approach made sure things ran smoothly, she coordinated all the vendors, took care of everything and was a legitimate angel at every single stage.

    Even with the coronavirus closing in on the world (and we think we were the last wedding guests they had before international travel stopped) we had an absolute blast.

    All our guests had nothing but high praise for Bec, the staff and the villa.

    We really cannot recommend this place enough. If you’re considering a wedding anywhere in Southeast Asia, this is where you need to have it.

    I find it difficult to find the words to describe Villa Kalyana and the experience we had there. It was an absolute dream.

    It was the perfect place for all our family to celebrate our special day, and was everything we hoped it would be and so much more. I’ve never stayed anywhere so luxurious, and the setting is absolute paradise. Mam and Sonja were so wonderful at looking after everyone and the food they put on for us was the best we had on the island!

    Rebecca was absolutely amazing throughout the whole process, during the planning she was always on hand to answer questions and put my mind at ease when I was stressing and she had so many amazing ideas that made our day truly unique. She perfectly executed the wedding of our dreams and we couldn’t be more grateful to her and the other wonderful staff that made it all happen.

    Thankyou for everything, I really hope we can return one day

    Spent a week here for a wedding and Villa Kalyana was more amazing than I ever could have imagined!! The villa is beautifully appointed and pristinely maintained. It’s located on an exquisite beach at the bottom tip of the island so it feels very private. My room was super comfortable with everything I needed, and the views were incredible! Many wonderful indoor and outdoor common areas for entertaining and hanging out. The ocean is right there to enjoy, and several pools and lounge areas sit just in front of the beach. We had visits from masseurs and a yoga instructor, all of whom were excellent. The food onsite was so delicious I looked forward to every meal! Many many thanks to the lovely staff who were so sweet and helpful. Such a wonderful and special place!

    Our family stayed at Villa Kalyana last week for 5 nights for my little cousin’s wedding and had the time of our lives. Our villa was kept impeccably clean, with the perfect amount of privacy but convenience and splendid view of the pool, grounds and beach. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the service impeccable, the food delicious, and no detail was left untended. My husband and children and I were sad to leave and most grateful for our time there. Would highly recommend Villa Kalyana and it would be a dream to get to return someday.

    I was lucky enough to experience this incredible villa for a full week alongside friends and family for my sister’s wedding. From the second we arrived to the villa, it was 5-star service everyday all day. I honestly can’t say enough nice things about Rebecca, Mam, Sonya and the amazing villa staff. They truly went above and beyond to make sure that the guests felt comfortable and relaxed. Not to mention, they were able to throw an EPIC wedding for my sister pretty last minute. The property itself is so luxurious yet you still get that island vibe since you have access to two crystal clear pools and your own private beach. Also, major props to the chef as every single meal, snack and dessert provided by the villa delighted all of our picky palates. It’s safe to say that Villa Kalyana holds a special place in all of our hearts and we can’t wait to come back in the near future!

    A month ago today we had our wedding in Villa Kalyana. We can’t put into words how incredible the day was and our whole 5 day stay at the Villa. Rebecca, Mam, Sonya and every single member of staff were just fantastic and genuinely wanted us all to have a perfect time. The love and attention they showed to all the children in our party was so lovely. We were pretty nervous about arranging a wedding party and Villa stay of 5 nights from so far away in the UK for 50 adults and children who didn’t all know each other! Rebecca instantly puts your mind at ease throughout all the planning and as soon as you walk through that hallway entrance to the villa on that first day, it’s so overwhelming how stunning the location and facilities are and across all 5 days how amazing the food was! We honestly wouldn’t change a thing about our whole experience and all our guests have said the same (so much they are all pushing for a reunion out there again!) You have created such a special venue, team and experience that we will be forever thankful for. We hope to see you again very soon!

    Amazing villa and staff! We had our wedding here in March 2019 and it was the trip of a lifetime! It’s hard to know where to start with this review as I feel that nothing I can say will ever come close to describing the most incredible experience we were so lucky to have. We stayed for 5 days and the service was impeccable from start to finish. I thought planning a destination wedding abroad would be hard but Rebecca was phenomenal! She took care of every detail and made all of our dreams come true! We were pretty nervous about arranging a destination wedding across the world for 45 people, all of our guests were coming from the United States and some had never traveled international before! Rebecca instantly puts your mind at ease throughout all of the planning. Even the day of and day before the wedding she was so helpful in helping me not be nervous and remain calm. All of our travelers made it to the Villa easily with the transport they arranged from the airport. As soon as we arrived at the villa we were welcomed by the staff with welcome drinks and were just in awe of how beautiful the villa is. I had never seen it in person and had only seen pictures. The pictures do not do it justice, it is overwhelming how stunning the location and facilities are! It is the most beautiful place I have ever seen and I could not believe that this was where we were going to have our wedding. The villa is right on the beach and there are kayaks you can take to a nearby temple. The beach is beautiful as well as the 3 pools! The 3 villas are spread out enough that it isn’t loud if people are hanging out by the pool. The people that went to bed early couldn’t hear us at all. The 3rd villa has a cool pool that has colored lights in it that we had fun with. All 3 of the villas are gorgeous and have their own unique special things about them. The staff at the villa were absolutely incredible! The staff was so helpful in helping us to inflate the pool floats we brought. Mam and Sonja were outstanding! From minutes after arriving they made us feel as though they had known us for years and instantly put us at ease. They knew all of our guests names by day 2 and were always asking if everything was ok and if there was anything else they could do to help. They were so helpful in organizing lunch and transport for daily activities for the guests. Every single one of our guests were blown away by the service. We absolutely fell in love with Mam and Sonja and felt like they were part of our family! Rebecca is also phenomenal! She listened to exactly what we wanted and she delivered it far beyond our expectations. I don’t have words to do her justice except I just wish everyone could experience having their wedding day planned by her. Everything was absolutely beautiful, she was so helpful helping me to pick out the vendors and décor. I wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted at first and she was able to help me with ideas and finding great suggestions for me to pick from. She also arranged for fire dancers to perform at our wedding that were incredible! All of our guests said our wedding seemed like something out of a movie, some said it was the best wedding they had ever been to! On our wedding day, we were guided through the proceedings seamlessly, not having to think or worry about anything at all. Rebecca had everything planned perfectly. From start to finish, everything was perfect and we genuinely had the best day of our lives! Rebecca, Mam, Sonya and every single member of staff were just fantastic and genuinely wanted us all to have and amazing time. We honestly wouldn’t change a thing about our whole experience and all our guests have said the same (so much that they are all pushing for a Thailand reunion trip out there again for one of our anniversaries!) You have created such a special venue, team, and experience that we will be forever grateful for. We hope to see you again very soon!

    “Best Week of our lives!”

    We got married at Villa Kalyana on 14th October, 2017 after staying at the Villa for 6 nights.
    The Villa was a truly beautiful and magical place to stay. We rented Villa 1 and 2 four our 26 guests and can honestly say it was the most magical week of our lives. The rooms are absolutely gorgeous, the pools clean and massive, the views stunning. The pictures of the Villa do a really good job of showing what the Villa will be like – but it is even better in person!
    Mam (Villa Supervisor), Sonja and all the Villa staff were absolutely amazing!!! Some of our guests asked if they would come home to Australia with them! There was never a request they couldn’t help with, they always went out of their way to make our experience at the Villa a wonderful one. Everyone was always smiling and accommodating. The food was to die for! Every single meal was delicious, all our guests were blown away by every dish. We were never hungry, as there was so much food! We did a number of off-site excursions including the Red Dragon boat tour, as suggested by Rebecca. The staff were always able to coordinate shuttles so easily whenever we needed, and very experience was a great one!

    Our Wedding planner, Rebecca Allen (who works exclusively for the Villa) was absolutely amazing! A true super star. We cannot say enough great things about her! From day one (of our 12 month journey) she made herself available to chat through ideas and help us to understand the process locally, what to expect and how she would help us along the way.
    Being the keen planners that we are, she accommodated our many many questions, sent through templates, video Skyped so so many times and even did a video walk around of the Villa as we talked through design options.
    Rebecca knows the venue really well, and so could direct us to ensure the Day (and week) was exactly what we wanted. In fact, the day was way over and above our expectations. The decorations, the food, the music – every detail was carefully looked after. It felt like a perfect reflection of us, and was so beautifully executed – we wish we could re-live the day over and over!
    We are so grateful to have had Becky to help create the wedding of our dreams, and can not thank her enough!

    We were all devastated when it finally came time to leave, and all our guests continue to tell us what an amazing week they had and how incredible all the staff were throughout the whole week. We are so grateful to Rebecca and all the Villa Staff for making our Wedding week the most memorable and enjoyable experience of our lives. We wish we could go back now!

    “Paradise on the beach of Koh Samui!”

    My group of 30 rented about both Villa 1 & 2 for an entire week of wedding festivities in August 2017.

    I literally can’t explain how amazing our time was while we were at Villa Kalyana in Koh Samui. When i first found Becky and the villa, i was a bit skeptical that the place was real. It seemed to good to be true. The pictures were amazing, my friends and family were in awe looking at the pictures! For about 9 months, i was corresponding with Becky to plan everything about my group’s entire stay. She helped with not only the wedding planning, but also planning out the entire week. I was able to work with her for every little thing – we wanted to have 5 scooters on property when we arrived, so anyone in our group could go out and adventure around the island. Without hesitation, she said no problem! We were also able to schedule all meals and pick-ups/drop-offs in advance, which made it sooo convenient!

    When we arrived, it was a bit of a trek from the airport, but when you drive up and are greeted by the staff with refreshing drinks and cold towels – i knew it was heaven on earth! Once i walked up the stairs and was able to see Villa 1’s pool, my jaw hit the floor. I almost passed out, it was so beautiful!!! The first thing we did when our group arrived as jumped in the pool!

    Not only was the villa so gorgeous, words can’t even do it justice, the staff was amazing. When most people go on vacations and stay in a hotel, you see different faces cycling through their shifts, and are met with the same average customer service. What separates Villa Kalyana from that ‘typical’ experience, are the staff. When you arrive, you truly feel welcome. The staff members became family to our group. Mam and Sonja went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and catered to every request. By the end of our trip, they were giving us hugs, braiding my nieces hair, and checking in on us to make sure all our needs were met. I seriously can’t explain how special these people are to me, they made an awesome vacation so much more memorable! My niece even asked if she could stay and live with Mam! :)

    The beach was amazing, we had a private & protected bay that was safe for everyone to just relax and play. It was so nice to be far from any tourists!

    Everything down to the wedding was perfect, Becky was truly extraordinary. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my wedding and trip, and i know my guests had a trip of a lifetime. I hope to one day come back and rent (at least one) villa to stay with a group. This place was truly a slice of paradise and i can’t recommend it enough for groups. I felt like a queen for an entire week during my stay in Koh Samui!

    “Made our dreams come true…….”

    I got married at the Villa Kalyana in April 2017 – we rented Villa 1 and Villa 2 and stayed for 5 nights.

    We have never been anywhere so beautiful and incredible then this place – it has an atmosphere that just makes every day a blessing.

    My husband and I spend a lot of time in Thailand, especially Koh Samui. We did a lot of venue shopping for a venue and I can say this without a shadow of a doubt this is the best Villa for your wedding. The Villa can house all of your guests in the one places where a lots of other on the island cant.

    Our wedding planner was the beautiful Rebecca Allan…… I call her my fairy wedding planner. Nothing was too much for her from planning, communication, problem solving it felt like she went above and beyond every time we spoke with her. One of my many favourite things about her is how calm, thoughtful and relaxed she is – this made the planning and execution of our wedding a dream come true. Everything I asked for and imagined she made happen exactly the way it looked in our minds. I can’t thank her enough for giving us something so special that we treasure every day. Words will never be able to explain how grateful we are to her as planning a wedding from a different country can be challenging but with Rebecca it was an absolute pleasure – Love you Becky!

    Another shout out I have to give it to Mam – She is the villa supervisor and makes sure that the guests are looked after and everyone is doing what they are supposed to. To me she is such a beautiful person, the way she made me and my family feel is something that you don’t get in other places. It really is one of the reasons this places is so special. Another person I have to mention is Sonja, again another remarkable addition to the villa, she really added to all of our experience. All of the staff from the chefs, gardeners, cleaners etc. are astounding , they really have this places sussed and have it running like a well-oiled machine. You should all be very proud as it wouldn’t be the place it is, without your guys (Rebecca Included).

    This place is a dream and as close to paradise as you can get. My advice to anyone who is thinking about staying here whether it is a wedding, family party/holiday or just a well deserve holiday for a big group is GET IT BOOKED! You won’t regret it, we are already talking about having a reunion in 2019 with all of our family and friends.

    See you soon Villa Kalyana

    “The place to get married on Samui!”

    We booked Kalyana for our wedding. We had our whole bridal team stay here with us for the week leading up to the wedding – 24 adults and 2 kids. A further 30 guests joined us for the wedding day.

    We cannot fault the owner and his team at Villa Kalyana. In the year leading up to the wedding they were incredibly accommodating, responsive and professional. Their in-house wedding coordinator, Alexa Champion went above and beyond her remit. We only wanted an on the day coordinator as we chose to organize most of the suppliers directly ourselves. But being in Australia it was great to have someone in Situ where there were language barriers or we needed some local knowledge.

    The staff at the villa went above and beyond to make our guests comfortable… We arrived the night before all our guests. When we awoke on the day of their arrival it was all hands on deck. Absolutely incredible how much effort all the staff put it, whether it was cleaning the floor to ceiling glass doors which afforded sensational views to the pool and beach, or raking the beach clear of debris, laying fresh towels at the pool. So much more went into the preparation and then accommodating our guests varying needs throughout the week. There was nothing but praise for the team from our guests. The villa manager, Renaud was fantastic. Leaving us to enjoy the villa as if it were our own home but appearing just at the right time to check all was well.

    As for the wedding day it was quite honestly the most beautiful day we could have asked for. Renaud, Alexa and the villa staff came into their own. It was a seamless process turning the villa into the most stunning wedding venue. The day was exactly as we had envisioned and ran without a hitch – Sonya’s suggestion to pay the monk a visit most certainly worked too!

    There is so much in the finer details we could rave about but we’d have to write a significant essay. Suffice to say if you want the dream wedding on a beach in Thailand then Villa Kalyana is where you should be saying ‘I do’.

    Wishes to you all! Kane & Victoria x
