Cookie-cutter stays don’t cut it when you are looking for a honeymoon retreat or a romantic getaway for two. Luxury comes in many shapes and sizes and to embrace the sweet spot of privacy, breathtaking views and simply spectacular stays you may find yourself falling in love with the idea of a luxurious villa in tropical Thailand, on the most desirable vacation destination islands of Phuket and Koh Samui. With private dining experiences and your own in-villa butler on hand to look after your every need, let’s face it, what’s not to love!

With four bedrooms you can relax into a cool, contemporary pad at Villa Padma, with gorgeous Thai design elements such as hand-carved sculptures. The villa boasts al fresco day beds and super-sized sofas for cuddling up with your amour.

A daybed in the shallow end of your L-shaped infinity pool is beyond romantic and the rest of Villa Sangkachai, on the quiet north-eastern edge of Koh Samui, follows the same dynamic and dramatic style; an outstanding four-bedroom, coastal-clifftop beauty that has a hipster vibe. A clean, white-wall design features large, colorful artworks, with flashes of passionate reds and oranges lighting up the décor.

When you are not staring into the eyes of your lover, there is plenty to do too, with a state-of-the-art cinema as well as a an entertainment space as well as a pool table and gym, with yoga classes available too. Deep soak tubs and outdoor lounge seating add the chill factor, while a personal chef and rooftop lawn with a BBQ serves up intimate and extraordinary dining experiences.

When it comes to true love there is no grey area and Villa Paradiso on Phuket’s Naithon Beach on the sunset-side of the island boasts monochrome-inspired decor.
