Needs updated pics and additional info added to listing
We are an American family of 5 (kids 13, 11, 9). Familiar with Koh Samui and international travel. Usually stay in 4-5 star beachfront villas with private pools typically associated with a resort. For this trip, traveled with friends (couple 7 y.o.) and wanted to stay all together so ventured to a VRBO listing instead of a resort.Biggest frustrations were layout, cleanliness, and location.There is a master on the main living and one upstairs of the main house. The other three bedrooms are through a courtyard. Two on the main level and one up steep narrow stairs. If you have children that would not want to walk outside in the middle of the night to get to you keep in mind. There are two sets of sliding glass doors to pool area but one set was too difficult to open so stayed locked and the other too difficult for 7 and 9 year olds to open so had to have an adult open the door for them each time.Pics seem like taken 10 yrs ago. Multiple holes in pillow cases, towels, sheets. Housekeeper kind but only swept bathrooms and changed sheets after asked a week into our stay. Cooking utensils partially melted, very old, drawers and fridge quite dirty. Didn’t want to cook in the house. If using grab van (taxi for more than 4 people) the drivers aren’t able to maneuver to the property so you get dropped off about two blocks away.The beach has rocky/oyster area for about 20 yds then flat. Must go out few hundred yds to swim when tide out.
