Any true sunset connoisseur will tell you that the best are over the ocean, where there are no obstructions to the display. Better yet, find a place high above the water, where the sea reflects and doubles the sun’s glory. That is a pretty exact description of Malaiwana Villa M, high on a steep hillside dominating Phuket’s delightful Naithon Beach. It’s not just at sunset that the view is compelling. Throughout the day, the sky, the wheeling of the sun, breezes that fan and scallop the water, and fishing boats arrowing the surface, create a never-ending and never-repeated pageant.
And this Phuket villa has so much more to offer besides. The enormous infinity-edge pool, for example, constantly draws the eye through its reflections of the blue above, so that diving into it feels like diving into the sky. Around the pool the spacious deck and sun loungers invite indolence with a book, a chilled drink or a snooze. After a work out in the villa’s superbly equipped gym, retire into the shade of the lounge with its sink-into sofas and whimsical giant clothes-peg and champagne-cork side tables. Conveniently, there’s a bar here too.
About the time the sun is at its sultry zenith, the villa’s excellent chef will serve lunch, a feast of all of your culinary whims made real. Congregate around the table in the dining/kitchen pavilion, where glass doors concertina open on three sides to make sure you never miss a moment of the ocean’s display. And after the sun has gone down, chill out under a billion stars on the vast, purpose built entertainment terrace. And then, finally, to bed in one of the villa’s five super-comfortable bedrooms, to dream of sea and stars.
Phuket is an island full of delights but be warned: you may not get to see them. Villa M may just be all the holiday you can handle.

Location
The crystal-clear waters of the Andaman Sea and the powder-soft sands of Naithon Beach are in full view from every villa and residence at Malaiwana. Just a short walk or downhill drive away from the estate, this pristine one-kilometre-long beach on Phuket’s peaceful northwest coast is perfect for sunning, swimming, snorkelling, stand-up paddling and sandcastle building.
A tranquil village atmosphere prevails in this unspoiled corner of the island and the beach road is lined with low-key shops and cafés. Along the coast, numerous hidden coves and beaches are waiting to be discovered.
Just up the road, the Trisara Resort offers fabulous dining, and plenty of trendy beachfront restaurants at Bang Tao, eight kilometres to the south.
Malaiwana Villa M is an easy 20-minute drive from Phuket International Airport.
More information for Things to doThough it may be tempting to spend your entire holiday in cossetted comfort, Malaiwana also makes a great base for exploring Phuket’s quieter northern coastline and interior. With your villa manager’s help, bookings and transport to the island’s top leisure activities and sights can be easily arranged.
Here’s a selection of some of the activities on offer beyond Malaiwana:
- Hop on a stand-up paddle board at Naithon Beach and explore the coves and beaches of Phuket’s rugged northern coastline. Make a stop at the tiny Banana Beach for a refreshing drink and snorkel session.
- Indulge in a Sunday brunch or romantic sunset dinner at Trisara resort.
- Enjoy a solitary stroll along Mai Khao Beach, the most northern and isolated beach on Phuket, or try a surf or kiteboarding session at Nai Yang Beach.
- Head east and discover Phuket’s lush interior on a jungle trek to the waterfalls at Khao Phra Thaeo National Park, and be sure to say hello to the inhabitants of the Gibbon Rehabilitation Project at the park entrance. At the Phuket Elephant Sanctuary, which is in the same area, visitors can observe elephants rescued from the tourist trade.
- The Andaman Sea beckons with spectacular scenery and rich marine life, best explored aboard a chartered luxury yacht or on a snorkel or scuba diving trip. Glide past the towering karsts of Phang Nga Bay, swim with the colourful fish off Raya island, soak up the sun on the brilliant white sands of Koh Hong, and more.
- Take some time to restore your body and mind during a day of pampering and luxury at the fabulous Banyan Tree Spa, or go for a simple yet invigorating Thai massage session right on the beach.
- Delve into Phuket’s rich culture and history with a walking tour of the Old Town, its streets lined with colourful Sino-Portuguese shophouses and some of the island’s best local eats.
- Discover the secrets of delicious Thai cuisine at a cookery class, which often includes a visit to a local market to shop for fresh ingredients.
- Play a round or two at one of the island’s scenic golf courses including Laguna Golf Club with lagoons and mountain views and the Nicklaus-designed Mission Hills with stunning ocean views.
- Add some dazzle and upbeat DJ music to your seaside sundowner at one of Phuket’s beach clubs. Try Dream Beach Club at Layan Beach or Catch Beach Club at Bang Tao.

Thai food is justifiably world famous for its fragrant and exotic flavours, and Villa M’s skilled personal chef offers guests an excellent opportunity to explore this delicious cuisine and enjoy meals carefully customised to individual tastes.
The villa’s suggestion menu brims with a tasty array of Thai dishes, set breakfasts and a selection of western dishes. Highlights include tom kha gai (delicious chicken soup made with coconut milk and fragrant galangal); gaeng phed ped yang (red curry with roasted duck); pla thod ta rod (crispy sea bass with five-flavour sauce), and the chef’s specialty Gaeng ka ree nue fak tong (beef tenderloin and pumpkin in Thai yellow curry).
The chef and kitchen team will take care of all the grocery shopping, sourcing only the freshest and best quality ingredients. Provisions are charged at cost plus a 20% handling fee and a government tax, and guests are requested to provide cash to cover groceries in advance. The staff will keep receipts for reference when settling the bills.
Villa M’s elegant dining pavilion is as delectable as its cuisine. In this elegant glass-sided room you’ll be perfectly placed to enjoy the spectacular sea and sunset panoramas.
