Koh Naka Retreat is an exclusive private villa hideaway located on the small tropical island of Koh Naka Yai, just off the east coast of Phuket, surrounded by the world class scenery and breathtaking views of Phang Nga Bay. With blue waters and 5 secluded sandy beaches to choose from, Koh Naka Retreat provides a beautiful romantic ‘Castaway’ environment for holidaymakers and honeymooners looking for an isolated yet accessible location to unwind and escape the pace of modern life. Besides infrequent day trippers and passing yachts dropping anchor for lunch, the only other inhabitants are a few local Thais living in a small village on the other side of the island. A short boat ride away is the smaller Koh Naka Noi island where a working pearl farm can be explored.

Location Information

Arriving at Koh Naka Retreat, set in elevated grounds above the northeast shore line, a private jetty leads to the infinity edge swimming pool which enjoys stunning views of Phang Nga Bay. From the pool a broad stairway flanked on either side by guardian Naka, leads upwards through the tropical garden to a teak shingle roofed Sala constructed over a bubbling watercourse which introduces the entrance to the main residence. Here a traditional terra cotta relief depicts the Naka at the birth of the universe. The interior of the house is essentially oriental in character with adjustments to accommodate western style living. Here there is no lack of creature comforts - a combination of western "necessities" complimented by the splendour and design of the Orient. A curved marble staircase leads to the main living room of the house where teak panelled walls and cool marble flooring opens onto a spacious wooden deck. This al fresco living and dining area affords panoramic views of the tropical garden and the island studded seascape beyond. The elevated aspect of the house and the open tropical design style allow the property to breath with natural air currents and sea breezes contributing to a sense of relaxation and spaciousness. Air-conditioning is only provided in the more enclosed areas of the property. At the rear of the living room area, one wing opens to an opulent mirrored dining room serviced by two kitchens, one western Mediterranean in style and one Thai style. The opposite wing is where the games room can be found, furnished with Chinese antiques and a full sized snooker table. One floor up the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom has an emperor size bed and is of cathedral like proportions with exposed wooden beams and romantic lighting controllable according to the mood of the occupants. Stunning views take in the limestone karsks of Phang Nga Bay including the now famous "James Bond" island. The master bedroom area is provided with fan cooling only, as in its elevated position natural cool airflows eliminate the need for air-conditioning. The smaller second bedroom with en-suite bathroom and air-conditioning is next door, facing southwest views of the island landscape can be enjoyed. The top floor is home to the third bedroom, also with en-suite bathroom, air-conditioning and views out across the island. Two further en-suite bedrooms furnished to the same high standards are available.
