Six of us friends stayed at Baan Pa Nom for 4 nights towards the end of Sept and though it has been more than a month since we returned from our short holiday, we’ve all left parts of hearts back at the villa!! The Best part of our entire trip was enjoying the pure beauty within and around the villa. We were skeptical at first as we had viewed some pictures of the villa from other sites, but we were proved wrong as the pictures, even from Karon Rustic’s site, don’t do any justice to the villa at all!! We felt right at home and we must thank Susan and Utt, the dear housekeeper, for our wonderful stay. Though initially we did complain about the walk up and down the slope as the villa is situated on a hill, we overcame it soon enough and actually found it fun to work our legs for the 5-10 min walk, plus it was an easy walk to Karon beach and the nearby shops/restaurants!
We share the same sentiments as the other reviews – the rooftop infinity pool/Jacuzzi is splendid!! Sadly, we only utilized it for one night as we were packed with tours/activities for the rest of the days and it poured heavily the day we decided to stay in. We had no complains though, as we enjoyed indoors, watching DVDs-there’s a fairly great collection of DVDs, magazines and novels available in the living room. The villa was equipped with every facility we needed and even if there was something missing, we absolutely didn’t notice as we were simply awed by the simple yet beautiful interior designs and amazing views of the Andaman Sea and the nearby hills. As the kitchen was fully equipped with almost every type of cutlery and utensils, we bought our own groceries and cooked some of our meals. The lounge area at the living room was perfect for our drinking sessions, with the company of the constant cool breeze. Utt was very warm and friendly and kept our holiday home very clean with his daily services as well.
We’re still bragging about our stay at Baan Pa Nom to our friends and families and showing off the numerous shots we took! We even recorded our very own ‘MTV Cribs’ style video of the entire villa and had our own photoshoot at almost every corner of the house!
We’ll definitely plan another trip just to enjoy the serenity the villa offers. Sometimes we even talk about leaving everything behind and settling there! :) Our first thought and affiliation each time we think of Phuket is Baan Pa Nom and we don’t think That would change! Kudos to the accommodation!

Availability Calendar
Once you walk through the carved wooden gates (actually made out of Bali temple doors) you’ll experience the breathtaking serenity of Villa Dao. A surrounding wall, ensuring maximum privacy, encloses the immaculate private gardens. A crystal clear swimming pool with fountain beckons you towards it.
Villa Dao is stylishly appointed in a Bali style with western features and comforts. Nature is the predominant force here – everything is focused on the gardens and swimming pool. Both bedrooms have luxuriously comfortable beds, and lead right out onto their own terraces. You can find a spot to relax anywhere in the grounds – the open living area, large sun deck and plenty of spots with the gardens.
Location
Being located close to Klong Khong beach, Villa Dao is very convenient for a good number of beachside restaurants and bars – only 500m away. For more choice you could head to Long Beach (4km north) where the road and the beach areas have a larger selection. Klong Khong road is home to many good Thai food stalls if you want to try some authentic local food at bargain prices!
For daytime activities, the management can book any trip you wish – snorkeling, diving, kayaking, island tours, elephant trekking and more. The operators run a convenient service picking you up from the villa and dropping you off after. You can also rent a car or scooter here for a good price.
