Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ao Khanom Municipal District

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Julia. The villa is just as you see it in the pictures on the listing. We are a family of ten, aged 11-85, and the villa was perfect for us. Spacious with lots of family space to sit together, inside and outside. The pool was great for our four children and enjoyed by all the family. The bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable, with en-suite for each bedroom. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable beds and pillows. The added bonus was the amazing service from James and the team, who were so kind and helpful, quickly responding to our questions and requests. James organised airport transfers, taxis, restaurant bookings and trips. James is kind and caring and a real attribute to the villa. We had the chef service for our first evening and breakfast the first day, then another meal. It was delicious. But quite expensive compared to eating out. The villa is very peaceful but a little off the beaten track, so recommend car hire to get about.

Real amazing host. Kevin took time to introduce every details of the house and its surrounding. The sun orientation etc.. Traditional house decorated with taste : traditional furniture with full modern functional amenties electrical kitchen, dishwasher etc... 20 meters from the private beach..very peaceful.. little private paradise!

Super nice villa! Upon arrival, Alan welcomed us and showed us around. We were able to go earlier for the check-in time. Alan was super helpful and easy to reach during our stay. We were able to come to him with everything. Thank you so much Alan and until next time.🙏🏼

Our stay at Kevin’s beach house was a truly perfect getaway! The home is tucked away in a peaceful spot, right on a quiet beach that feels like your own. The home is beautifully designed for privacy and full of charm, with Thai craftsmanship and love in every detail. Listening to Kevin talk about his houses, you sense the deep passion and soul he has invested in every detail. Kevin is an outstanding host — warm, incredibly responsive, and somehow always one step ahead of what we needed. Honestly, we thought it must be a whole team behind the messages — but no, just Kevin, simply amazing. Renting a car or scooter is a must to explore the island and try the fantastic local restaurants he recommends. We came for peace, nature, and family time — and found exactly that, wrapped in authenticity and care. A truly special place with a host who makes it unforgettable.

Have booked a place on the way after returning from the south pilgrimage. Loved the villa atmosphere. Very quiet and private. Khun Yupa, the owner, was very responsive. You took care of Ann and you took care of it. It was great to buy breakfast and was very accommodating during your stay. Overall, I was impressed. If you have any business going to Donsak area, I will definitely book my stay here again.

Beautiful setting. The staff were fantastic.

We spent 3 weeks at Jana's villa and it was absolutely fantastic. Clean, modern, spacious and private, with amazing views over the ocean and access straight on to a beautiful, quiet beach, absolute paradise! There was the most helpful staff on site everyday, early morning to evening, to clean the villa and provide great food and drinks at the small beach bar/restaurant right next to the villa. If you want to eat and drink in the privacy of the villa, no problem at all, the ladies will prepare and then serve for you wherever you wish. Such nice people. Fantastic massages available whenever you wish, either in the villa or on the beach, Nok the therapist was a genius. We went on several unbelievable island boat trips with Jana's son Martin who has his own boat, unforgettable experiences and would highly recommend, such a great guy and always around to help. Perfect beach for young children, such shallow, clear and warm water, protected by a reef not far from shore, so really calm and safe. Communication with Jana beforehand was excellent and also on hand throughout our stay to answer questions and give really great local recommendations. A really nice lady who makes such a big effort. We found an absolute gem with this villa located in such a peaceful, natural and beautiful part of the island. We will be returning in the near future for sure.

Words can not describe how much we enjoyed our stay in Poy's villa. The view you have from each room of it is just breathtaking. You feel like living in the middle of nature while staying in an secured villa park and you can see how much love is in every detail of the house what makes it even more fantastic to stay there. There are so many places to enjoy the sun and even the sunset that we did not find any other viewpoint in Koh Samui that impressed us as much as our balcony! We would definitly recommend it to everyone, it is more than worth a stay, it is a must to stay there if you are in Koh Samui. (and it is not booked yet :D) On the lower hill there are some nice Thai Restaurants with even nicer people, where you can have some Thai and international food. Even a supermarket is close by, so you have everything you need. But you should definitly rent a (strong) scooter or motorcycle or 4* 4 car to climb the hill and get wherever you want. On Top of the house you get more as a host. Poy was awesome! He got a friend while our stay there, showing us everything we need and giving us some nice tips where to go and what to do! :) Communication and organization went perfect all the time and he was more than you could wish from a host! Thank you Poy, for the great time and for letting us dream in your villa! It was a real plasure! We would definitly come again! :)

From start to finish everything was amazing! Highly recommend. We had 7 people and the space was perfect…the best beach was right here where we stayed. We went to other beaches and nothing really compared. The beach club and the Shi Shi restaurant both amazing! The spa services the best! I’m very picky about places to stay and would definitely come back.

Great stay at Mikkos place and I would also highly recommend the ‘dusty gecko’ for food. Overall very quiet and a nice retreat away from the hustle and bustle

Lovely place - perfect for relaxation and for the kids. The house is very comfortable and practical. The beach is perfect for the children because of the shallow water. There is not much shade on the beach and not much happening. But there is a beach club very close (which might look run down) but with great food and very friendly - especially with the kids and had activities for them. We also enjoyed the Koa restaurant which we could easily walk to and the Grams house. :) the host was very friendly and very easy to communicate with and quick to help. :) all in all a lovely experience - we really enjoyed our stay :)

Beautiful villa. Attached to a hotel reception with very welcoming and warm staff

Wie had a great time! The place is close to the beach. Our kids loved it. It is great for families. Only little confusion in the begining was, that the lower floor has been renovated and looks very different than on the pictures. Would love to spend more tine there!

We absolutely loved this place. It was exactly what we needed. Huge private beach, gorgeous gardens, quiet surroundings. If you want to actually relax and not be mixed in with a party crowd on Samui, this is the perfect getaway. We almost extended our stay, because we liked it so much, but we had work and animals to attend to at home. It’s also cool that this place is flexible with its accommodations and that they can host up to 12 people. Well worth the money we paid. Also, worth noting that there are two support staff members on premise. They are extremely helpful and friendly, and even did some of our laundry. I have stayed at other villas before but the addition of staff makes this place extra special.

Very nice house and as described. Has everything you would need and the hosts were very responsive and communicative. Quick to help when we needed anything and booking transport to and from places

Thomas was a proactive host. He communicated with me months, weeks, and days leading up to my stay to ensure that I had everything I needed. His staff was very attentive to my needs. Tony & his team always found me cost saving alternatives for any of my requests. The chef was amazing!!! I definitely enjoyed our stay. Thank you for everything.

We can't say enough good things about our stay with Thanyanan at Ban Thanyanan Resort in Khanom. We were fortunate to get of of the 3 villas for our 28 day stay as we enjoy being able to cook some of our meals. Our host occasionally took my wife into town to do some shopping at the local market and the Lotus grocery store which was a great help. Later we learned we could order from Lotus and they would deliver right to our villa within a day. We enjoyed walking to a number of different restaurants in the neighbourhood, many within 5-10 minutes. The pool was a real bonus. We went for a dip every day and enjoyed playing cards out in the shaded area beside the pool, listening to the birds and enjoying nature. Na Dan beach was just a 5 minute walk away. Our villa had everything we needed and was very clean and well kept. Thanyanan picked us up in Khanom, made us delicious mango sticky rice, and really looked out for us. If you're looking for a place to totally relax, this is the place.

This was our second stay and we chose it as a base for a family wedding. Pranom was excellent - answering questions before we arrived, warm and welcoming as we arrived, and always helpful during the stay. The villa is situated at the quiet end of the island, but comes with a car, making getting around the Islam super easy. Tam’s taxi service is excellent and Grab (Uber equivalent ) works if you select the destination as Ananas Hostel and direct the driver for the last 0.5km Thank you Pranom - if we visit Ko Samui in the future we know where we will be staying!

Our stay at this private villa was truly outstanding. The highlight of the property was undoubtedly the spacious and pristine private pool, which provided the perfect setting for relaxation and fun. The fully equipped kitchen made meal preparations a breeze, giving us the comfort of home during our vacation. The rooms were impeccably clean, and the furniture was modern, comfortable, and well-maintained, adding a touch of elegance to the villa. The attention to detail in cleanliness and aesthetics was truly commendable. One of the standout features was having a car included with the villa. This was a fantastic convenience, allowing us to explore the local area without the hassle of arranging transportation. The host was also highly responsive and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed for a seamless stay. Overall, this villa exceeded our expectations and provided a luxurious and hassle-free getaway. We would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a private and co

Thanyanan’s place is absolutely wonderful! Our bungalow was clean, had a well equipped kitchen, spacious living area, comfortable bed and a lovely porch. The pool area and grounds were very well looked after with many shaded areas to sit and relax. Thanyanan’s place is well situated; it is a short walk from the beach (200m) and a short bike ride from the centre of town (2km). Thanyanan is the definition of a superhost. When we first met her she showed us around the property, had placed fresh fruit in our refrigerator, took us to a local restaurant where we had lunch and then took us to a grocery store to get provisions. She provided us with bikes to use for the duration of our stay and was always available to offer advice, recommendations and arrange excursions. She took us to the night market, brought us treats from the fruit trees in her garden, made us homemade specialty treats and some traditional homemade authentic dinners for us to try. Thanyanan made our stay most memorable and we look forward to our return next winter.

Comfortable villa, brilliant location literally metres from the beach, amazing pool and outside area to relax. Miss Kanda is amazing (her food and cleaning and just generally lovely). Old style Thai furniture with beautiful high ceilings, some update to curtains maybe needed but superbly comfortable and beautiful. Not much to do close by - X2 is a 5 star hotel a few minutes walk but very quiet and so-so food and cocktails. Would need a car or take the taxi when you want to get out, but we were happy to stay in and swim at the villa and on the beach for a few days before we got cabin fever, it’s just so comfortable and Miss Kanda just did everything for us to be comfortable, cleaning and delicious food too.

Wa’s villa was just as we hoped, it was exactly like the photos, Wa gave us a very warm welcome and we felt at home immediately. Communication by Nikki was always prompt and they were very quick to respond (time difference permitting) the area is very quiet and non touristy so if you are looking to relax and get away from it all then this is the place for you. There are restaurants/bars within walking distance and they have a taxi man on speed dial!
