You can call me Melie, it\u2019s easier to pronounce.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elite Havens:&nbsp;What a lovely name! So you\u2019ve been the Villa Manager here in Angthong for one and a half months. What did you do before you became a Villa Manager for Elite Havens?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Melie Pundat:&nbsp;Before I became a Villa Manager, I worked as a Resort Host in <a href=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/the-best-beach-clubs-in-koh-samui\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Koh Samui<\/a>. A Resort Host takes care of the VIP guests from the time they check in until they check out. One also makes arrangements for the activities they want to do and other things like that. So, it\u2019s quite similar to the job of a Villa Manager because the role is to look after the guests during their stay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elite Havens:&nbsp;What do you like most about this villa?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Melie Pundat:&nbsp;I think this villa is unique. The owners really have a heart for details, which is obvious in how they have mixed Thai d\u00e9cor with other styles, and how they have personalised everything. The first time I came to this villa, it was for my interview. Let\u2019s just say it was love at first sight. I loved the colour, it\u2019s so unique. And when you open the door, you see the swimming pool and the amazing view of the sea. I was very impressed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-large wp-image-15180\" src=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-1024x576.jpg\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%271024%27%20height%3D%27576%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%201024%20576%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%271024%27%20height%3D%273576%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-200x113.jpg 200w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-320x180.jpg 320w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-550x309.jpg 550w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-889x500.jpg 889w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Angthong-Villa-Gorgeous-living-area-design-scaled-e1592974377790.jpg 2560w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-orig-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Elite Havens:&nbsp;Can you tell us about some of your experiences as a Resort Host?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Melie Pundat:&nbsp;As a Resort Host, you get to know your guests personally. In fact, I still keep in touch with some of the guests from before. For example, there was an American couple. They stayed at our resort for about 10 days for their honeymoon. They are Diamond Members, which is the highest tier, and so they were VVIP guests. So I made sure I took very good care of them during their stay and we forged a bond. Small things went a long way in making their stay special, like booking their spa visits and boat trips. And since I was in charge of them, they could text me directly, if they needed anything. On their last day, they sent me a message saying they really enjoyed their stay, thanking me for the hospitality, and that they hoped to come back and meet me at the resort again. Since then, they text me every festival, to greet me and send me a picture. So, it\u2019s nice that we were able to develop a good connection.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elite Havens:&nbsp;What do you think makes a good Villa Manager?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Melie Pundat:&nbsp;I think you have to be service-oriented, that is key. When you do things for the guests, even the smallest of things, you should put your heart into it. They will notice the difference and it will make their stay wonderful and memorable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Elite Havens:&nbsp;What are some nearby places that you can recommend to guests?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Melie Pundat:&nbsp;I would ask them first what kind of activity they want to do. Different people have different interests. If they want to go on a boat trip, we can arrange that. On the other hand, if local <a href=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/phuket-old-town-a-colourful-cultural-melting-pot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">culture<\/a> interests them, I would recommend a visit to Fisherman\u2019s Village which is not far. They can learn a lot about local life in <a href=\"https:\/\/magazine-proxy.elitehavens.com\/in-phuket-and-koh-samui-where-elephants-can-just-be-themselves\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Koh Samui<\/a> in just one place.
