Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ban Tai

Beautiful villa in a quiet picturesque location. The owner was helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay here!

A Perfect Tropical Getaway at White Phoenix Villa, Koh Samui We had a wonderful 3-night stay at the White Phoenix Villa, and it truly exceeded our expectations. The villa is beautifully designed — modern yet cozy, with an inviting warmth that made us feel instantly at home. Each room was thoughtfully furnished, and the natural sunlight streaming in throughout the day added a bright, refreshing vibe to the entire space. Whether it was lounging by the pool or simply enjoying the peaceful interiors, every moment felt relaxing and memorable. Ken the caretaker was amazing and always smiling and very helpful. One thing that slightly surprised us was the additional charge for water and electricity, which was informed and which was presented in the final bill. It wasn’t a major issue, but it did feel a bit unexpected and was the only blot on an otherwise very comfortable and enjoyable stay. That said, the overall experience was fantastic, and we would still highly recommend White Phoenix

Very good stay! The view from the pool is beautiful, Jean Luc is very responsive in messages to help and he provided us with the coordinates of a taxi van(there were 8 of us) who transported us during the stay.

The villa is in a terrific setting which cannot be faulted and has a well laid out interior. I took the option of arranging a taxi to pick me up from the airport which was a good idea as the villa is a tad tricky to find first time around.

The house is amazing, just like the owners are. We had a very good communication with Pam before, during and after our stay. The house is spacious and lush and it‘s tastefully decorated. The house is secluded in a private estate but still near to beaches and the nearby town. Perfect for family’s or groups up to six friends.

This home allows you to open the accordion glass doors and hear the waves and feel the sea breeze all day. Since it’s on the north coast, you can see the sunrise and sunset each day. You can walk out without shoes and stroll along the beach to one of the great restaurants facing the sea.

Large apartment with a beautiful view. Chris is always in touch and happy to help. Apartment has everything you need. Definitely worth what we paid. I wish it was cleaner, but that’s ok. Also feel like I was charged too much for electricity, I intentionally used as little as necessary, and still ended up paying for a few days what my friend that lives nearby pays in a month. Not the end of the world. Overall worth it and definitely recommend!

A super nice Air BnB surrounded by nature and tranquility. The pool table was used almost every evening. It is quite remote on a mountain, so a scooter or car is absolutely necessary to be mobile.

Nice apartment 5 minutes walk to the main street in Choengmon and to the beach. Apartment may need a refurbishment but other than that lovely stay.

Was perfect for our stay. Had everything we needed and lots of space. Highly recommend

The photos didn’t do the villa justice, it was a beautiful villa with very nice views. Most the rooms had a sea front view and beds were very comfy while also all being very spacious (there was 8 of us) Would definitely stay again and recommend highly to anyone. Lee was also very helpful and informative while also being very quick to respond on the air bnb app whenever we needed any question answering like where to rent mopeds and paddles boards. 5 stars!

We had a group of six friends stay here and it was perfect. The view with the infinity pool is incredible, and Theresa and her team were so communicative and accomodating. The location is up mountain/hill of sorts, and so there isn’t much in walking distance, which was peaceful and fine for us but worth flagging. Overall, I can’t recommend the place enough and we are very grateful for the opportunity to stay here.

What an incredible place. If you are looking for some peace away from the throngs of tourists then this is your place. It was a perfect ending to 3 weeks travelling around Thailand with our kids and we didn’t want to leave.

There really aren't words to describe how special Marine's villa is! The photos are beautiful but it is even more special when you arrive. The villa is a little remote and it can be difficult for drivers to find, we had a little problem when being picked up for a boat trip, but Marine and her staff were on hand to help us share the location so that we could be picked up. Whenever we wanted to go out, I was able to text Mr Wat and request a taxi. This was so easy and so convenient and we simply settled the bill at the end of the stay. The villa is so clean and comfortable and as an extra special touch, Marine provided a beautiful cot with bedding for our daughter and many toys including a play kitchen which kept her entertained for hours! Marine and her staff were always on hand to recommend restaurants. Marine also organized a chef to come to the villa and provide brunch for our family one day, the food was amazing! I wholeheartedly recommend this villa, Marine is such a wonderful host

I’m very happy that I could spend a week in Samui in this Villa at Ilona’s resort - very beautiful surroundings in the middle of jungle but very close to fisherman village or beaches and other places. Hosts take care of guests privacy and peaceful vacation which is great! I got also help from John, who managing resort with a taxi to the airport. John also arrange a scooter just few minutes after my check in directly to my Villa so I didn’t have to spend time on that! I would be more than happy to visit this place again! Already miss it!

Jin's place was a very peaceful stay. The bungalows felt tranquil, as if you were in the jungle. There is a restaurant called Mekong Fusion right beside it, which had amazing food. We ate there every day. Check in was smooth and the receptionist was very nice. They even helped arrange a car rental for us. We highly recommend this place!

We really enjoyed our stay in the villa. It is spacious and because of the large windows on both sides, bright and at the same time cosy and has all the necessities. The pool table on the back terrace is very cool. The house is nestled in a beautiful garden. You can relax by the large pool and let your gaze wander over the varied vegetation. The trees, shrubs and plants are very calming. The neighbourhood is quiet and you have your privacy. (The building site on the neighbouring property was only rarely under construction during our stay, so the noise didn't really bother us). Our contact person Iris was very helpful and obliging. Communication went smoothly and questions were answered within a very short time. Transport and the hire of a scooter were also organised without any complaints. Many thanks for everything!

Our stay at Villa Yanisa was amazing! The location was perfect - very private and right on the beach. We really appreciated the amenities such as laundry, air conditioning and dish washer. Chittraporn was responsive and proactive. He offered a complimentary pick up from the airport and helped to arrange transportation for after we left the villa. I highly recommend this place and would stay again if I come back!

This was our third time staying at this absolute gem…. View is unparalleled and brings a sense of calm. The villa needs some TLC, but if you can look past some maintenance issues, you will not find a more peaceful villa in Samui with amazing views. Nok and her team do a fabulous job managing the property. Service team are in and out like clockwork. Our only gripe is that the pillows suck. We bought our own. The ac works well in bedrooms (key) but main floor not so much - we would just jump in the pool! Highly recommended if available!

3rd time staying at Nats, it really is the best in Samui. Thanks Nat 🤩

Our stay at Baan Sawan was perfect. The view is breathtaking & the pool & tropical gardens are stunning. The villa is spotless & beautifully maintained — spacious rooms, inviting common areas & everything impeccably clean & cared for. It’s peaceful & private, only 10 minutes from Fisherman’s Village, where you’ll find great restaurants, shops & anything else you need. Star & Levy were the most wonderful hosts. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel at home. Star’s cooking was a highlight — generous, delicious breakfasts each day & a dinner on our first night that was restaurant-quality. Levy’s attention to the garden makes it feel like a tropical postcard. Both were warm, helpful & a real joy to be around — their presence added so much to our experience. Everything about our time here was smooth, thoughtful & relaxing. Anne & Alistair have created something truly special: a luxurious, welcoming home we’ll never forget. We’re so grateful for the experience & can’t wait to return.

Paradise! We were wonderfully welcomed. The villa is in a beautifully wooded residence, the view of the sea and the sunset are sublime. The infinity pool is large enough to swim. The bedrooms and bathrooms are pretty and spacious, the air conditioning works very well. The living room opens entirely, giving the feeling of being outside, above the sea. Perfect service, a gentleman visits morning and evening to clean the pool and terrace, tidy up the loungers. Several ladies prepare and serve a very hearty and diverse breakfast, concerned with everyone's taste. Our daughter doesn't eat gluten, they've always been very careful, and they managed to make her happy every day. The cleaning is daily and impeccable. A rental car was waiting for us in the parking lot, convenient because the villa is quiet, but far from the tourist places, there are good restaurants on the beach below.

This was, hands down, one of the best Airbnb experiences we've ever had. The home was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and located in a peaceful, scenic area — exactly what we were looking for. But what truly made our stay unforgettable were our incredible hosts. Wat and Khun went above and beyond in every way. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel completely at home with warm hospitality, thoughtful local treats, and consistent support throughout our stay. Their kindness and attention to detail made us feel like honored guests. Equally outstanding were Martin and Karen, who were always just a message away. Their communication was prompt, clear, and incredibly helpful. They provided fantastic recommendations for local restaurants, hidden gems, and must-see spots that made our trip even more special. We feel incredibly lucky to have found this place and crossed paths with such wonderful hosts. If you’re considering booking — do it. You won’t regret it.

Great stay at this villa! The villa itself is beautiful and worth the money, however annoying to get up the hill as most grabs wont take you.
