Villa Waimarie

Waimarie is Maori for "peaceful water", and the name is entirely apt for this villa where, for most of the year the sea is flat as glass and as warm as a mother's hug. This is Lipa Noi Beach, and when you stay at Villa Waimarie you will have it almost to yourself.
The rooms at this glorious Samui villa are secluded in the tropical gardens where guests are woken each day with birdsong from the resident mynahs, sunbirds and bulbuls. As you meander along winding brick paths, inhale the scent of frangipani and delight in the colourful splashes of brilliant tropical flowers.
Then, as you walk through an elegant archway, the sea greets you. Drink in the view. The sand is white and powdery. Next to the shore the sea is pale green, giving way to a band of dark amethyst, then aquamarine stretching to the horizon. Islands reflect the morning sunlight and behind them the mountains of the Thai mainland form a blue-grey graph against the sky.

DINING
Villa Waimarie's chef is on hand throughout your stay to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The villa has an extensive menu of home-cooked dishes to choose from, ranging from Thai and other Asia cuisines to western favourites, as well as children's specials and vegetarian choices. Or, off-menu, the chef is always happy to cook up something different requested by guests, including catering for special diets.
Do make sure you eat some fish during your stay; it is bought from local fishermen who land their catches every morning, so it's always super-fresh. The villa's signature Thai dish is Pla Tort Kamin – grilled turmeric-marinaded fish. Don't miss it. It's superb.
There is no charge for breakfast, which is included in the villa's daily rate. For drinks and other meals, supplies are charged at market price plus a 20% handling fee and a government tax, with a minimum shopping fee of THB 750.
Staff will do the shopping and provide receipts for reference. To ensure this can be done in a timely manner, we advise you to plan your meals the evening before.

SPA
What would a luxury holiday be without some serious spa time? At Waimarie you can pick and choose from a full menu of spa and beauty treatments administered by experts, in the privacy of your room, poolside or even on the beach. From a foot scrub to a facial, let yourself be pampered for few hours.
Here's a few examples of what's on the menu:
Thai massage is a widely recognised and admired art that sees the masseuse twisting and bending body, head and limbs in ways that might at first seem impossible. Follow this with a hot herbal compress and you'll be as relaxed as a strand of al dente spaghetti.
Or you can opt for a head and shoulders massage, or a reflexology foot massage. Add a touch of aromatic oil or aloe vera to make it even more exotic.
And finally, nails. Spoil your hands and feet with a mani-pedi, polished off with acrylic or gel nails.

Layout
You arrive at Waimarie through the main gate into the brick-paved courtyard and parking area, with the tennis court on the left. From there, a brick path leads through an elegant archway into the gardens and past the rooms, on left and right, and then to the main focus of the villa: the beachside pool with the huge sala to the left, lounge and entertainment room facing the ocean, dining and kitchen pavilion to the right. Just a couple of steps away is the beach itself.
