“Unbelievable Experience” This is Villa is truly amazing from the Villa itself, to the amazing staff who made the stay truly unbelievable. We will be back for sure and cannot recommend Crystal Villas highly enough

“Location, comfort and good people...” Three of my friends and I stayed at the Haadrin Seaview Villa during the first week of Feb. In the process of selecting this particular Villa I reviewed a number of other options but kept on coming back to this as one of the best from a location vs value for money proposition. Andy and Yuko were very responsive both via email and text messages initially thus the booking of the accommodation was a breeze. One has a tendency to make certain assumptions via photos prior to actually seeing a property and in this case the Villa exceeded my expectations. It has three equally sized bedrooms in the upper lounge area that is open plan with the kitchen. This in turn opens up onto a large deck that faces South so gets the sun all day. There is plenty of seating and a hammock so 90% of the time at the Villa was spent in this space. The upstairs bathroom was also in excellent condition (hot water). Downstairs there is a Jacuzzi that comfortably sits two (three at a push). We mainly used this as a plunge pool to cool down - great feature to have. There is also a secondary bathroom downstairs that comes equipped with a washing machine. So bottom line is the Villa itself is fantastic. The other major attraction are the owners. Both andy and Yuko are very friendly and are available at all times to help out if needed. Location is also critical. The house is 5 min by scooter to Haad Rin (fortunately far enough away from the crowds) and 2 min to a 7/11 that has an aTM. There is also a scooter hire place directly across the road. Of course nothing is perfect so it is important to note that the house is high up on the hill over looking Samui. The walk from the main Haad Rin road to the house is up a number of steps. Once you have a scooter you can get 2/3rds of the way up the hill but there is still about a 30 second walk up hill so if you have any mobility issues this place may not be for you. Overall a great week was had. Fully recommend. You won't be disappointed.

“Amazing!” Rented this villa over the new year, couldn't ask for more really, set back from the road, private and peaceful. Breathtaking views, very spacious ticks all the boxes and more. Excellent friendly service, will most definitely be returning to this villa again.

“Beautiful Home, Beautiful Beach, Beautiful Weather-What more cou” Service was outstanding. Sao & the complex Staff were not only friendly but very helpful whenever we needed them. The home was accomodating, cleaned daily (No housework-how spoilt did we feel!!) Got up early most days to catch & admire the beautiful Sunrise with only a short walk to the beach. Local Restaurants had delicious meals & was never disappointed with our selection a closer or at least access to a neighbouring pool (especially as it was unattended the whole duration) is my only negative comment otherwise its "absolutely perfect"

“fantastic view of koh tao” a great house built in the rock of the hill over looking the bay at Koh Tao. its a steep walk up to the house but the view and peacefulness is worth it. some taxis want to charge extra to climb the hill. plenty of space for family of 6 to enjoy. and Koh Tao is my favourite place in thailand, it feels like a small island in the middle of nowhere. magical did not want to leave. d fulcher, england

“A perfect vacation for families or large groups” Me and my family stayed here for a week in august 2012. We chose this villa after doing thorough research. We wanted something affordable, but also luxurious. After Geir, the owner, was patient enough to answer my endless questions, we felt confident enough to book this villa, as it was our first time booking a villa abroad. We never regretted our choice. When you first arrive at the villa, the view takes your breath away. Then you enter the beautiful house with all its comforts and conveniences. We particularly loved the huge balcony and would spend much time outside on it, daytime and night. But most of all, we loved, loved, loved, loved the pool. We have spend many hours and days in this gigantic pool, again with its fantastic view. We were a group of ten and we could easily fit in the pool and villa. I have to spend some time writing something about our wonderful host Geir, who made our stay so comfortable. You could easily walk to the beach, but going up can be tiresome, as the house is placed on a steep hill. My mom is 68, so she did want to climb up and down. Most people rent motorbikes or cars, but as we were a group of 10, we did not. Geir helped us by picking us up and taking us down to the beach or restaurants a few times a day. We showed us around the island and took us to Tongsala to do shopping. When we arrived everything on our shoppinglist was already there. I can highly recommend this villa. You will not reget it. We miss it already. If we are lucky enough, we might return some day.
