Thoroughly enjoyable experience, perfect villa in every way, highly recomended. Fantastic location away from the more tourist areas of Kata, idylic setting in very private, quiet estate of top end villas.

Baan Nai Fun, V10 Nai Harn Baan-Bua

 From Sheffield, Uk

This villa is fantastic. It is easily one of the best villas we have ever stayed in, and the owners Shari &amp; Phil really go out of their way to make sure they provide everything that you need to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. If you are planning a trip to Phuket and are looking for somewhere peaceful to stay, make sure you book this villa. It is amazing value for money and you definitely wont regret it!

If Paradise was half as nice then I definitely want to go there!!!!! This was my 6th visit at Baan Nai Fun, which says it all really. It is just so beautiful and peaceful that I am more than happy to return again and again. Not only are the villa and surroundings absolutely stunning, but the owners simply couldnt do more to make you feel welcome and happy for you to be visiting their home. On this visit there were 5 of us (more than usual) but at no time did we feel cramped or crowded. There is always a quiet spot somewhere if you want to get away for a bit of peace and quiet. Also lots of space for laughter and fun!!!! If I was asked to describe my vision of Paradise then this is it :-)

Wonderful Home for a Christmas Stay.  My husband and I, along with another couple and our adult son, spent a week here over Christmas. What a treat! 

From the moment I first contacted Phil and Shari about the possibility of renting their villa to the final email when our security deposit was returned, they made our trip simple. Every question was answered - often even before we knew enough to ask it, every detail looked after and a complete binder of information waiting for us at the villa. 

Baan Nai Fun is even more beautiful than shown in the photos. It has been built with care and attention to detail, and then lovingly decorated with Thai statuary, paintings and carvings. A well-stocked library and a chess board were welcome additions to lazy days. 

We chose to not rent a vehicle during our stay. Phil and Shari arranged ahead of time for our pick-up and return to the airport, and for any other trips we took, we phoned one of the taxis listed in the house information guide. Town is a short walk (10 minutes) away, and we wandered in there most days for our dinner meal. Restaurants are so reasonable, (and we were so lazy) that we chose to do that rather than cook our own meals. We did, however, cook Christmas Day, and found everything we needed in the kitchen to create our own Thai celebration. 

We would certainly recommend Baan Nai Fun to anyone visiting this area of Phuket, and will definitely stay here again should we return ourselves.

A truly magical holiday at Baan Nai Fun. This was our 3rd Thailand holiday staying at Baan Nai Fun, Nai Harn and although we still had very vivid memories of our last visits here we were again totally taken aback on our arrival by the beauty of the villa.
There is such a warm homely feel and real care about the villa which runs through every room. It all goes to create a truly relaxing atmosphere to unwind from our busy lives.
Everything you could possibly want or need is provided in the villa to make it a real home from home in such a beautiful location.
We enjoyed spending many hours just relaxing by the pool, sometimes gazing out into the lagoon to see the wildlife, kingfishers and turtles are a real treat.
We can highly recommend a stay at Baan Nai Fun as the perfect holiday base to explore the idyllic island of Phuket. The Villa has everything to make your stay as comfortable as possible and the memories we have will stay with us forever.

Home Away From Home! Stunning!  What can I say but WOW! My husband and I stayed for 9 nights just recently. We were amazed when we first stepped through the doors as the place exceed our expectations as the pictures do not do it justice. The place is large and very homely. You can see that Shari and Phil have made it a home away from home. There is everything you may need there, I mean everything, from films, music, games, snorkels, cocktail sets, first aid kit, brochures for Phuket, basics like salt / pepper etc, We also had a great surprise with our welcome pack in the fridge! I mean that is just to name a few things. The place is also spotless and the cleaners come every Mon/Wed/Fri and trust me, they do a brilliant job! The pool was a blessing each evening and even though the villa is located near a pond, there were no mosquitos! It is very serene and peaceful which is great after a day of sightseeing and the villa is in a well kept residential area which is very secure being looked after by security, so its very very safe. 

The location is brilliant! Naiharn is amazing. Shops are about a 10 minute walk but we had a car so it was so easy to get everywhere. There are lots of options to eat or get takeaway like we did (from Banana Corner (good Thai), DaVinci (fantastic pizza but pricey), Amalfi (fantastic everything), beach restaurants (great) etc. There is also a 7/11 right at the end of the street and other bigger shopping centres about a 10 min drive away. There are also a few good bars around the area, but not sleezy like the ones in Patong! Overall the beach is beautiful (has a little bit of surf at times which is great to play in). We had a day trip out going to most of the beaches on the West coast and Nai Harn and Kata Noi were our favourites when it came to nice sand, blue water and not over crowded. Patong was packed with people (mostly party goers) and was a bit seedy but is a 25 min drive away if you want to go and check out the lady boys etc. Kata and Karon are much closer and also have many options to go out in and is not as seedy. So overall Naiharn was definitely the best choice of location.

In terms of things to do, the list is as long as your arm. Things that we can recommend is Simba Tours. They do Phi Phi Island and Phang Nga Bay mainly as small group tours (15 people) and are the only ones that beat the crowds, which you really will appreciate! Amazing! We also went to Kok Chang Elephant rides, are probably the most trusted to treat their elephants well, fantastic too!

Overall, when it came to leave the amazing villa, we were so depressed and are already planning our next trip back!  Thanks Shari and Phil!

 From London

Yet another wonderful holiday at the villa. We had another fanatic relaxing stay at the villa, just as great as the time before. The villa is so homely and comfortable everything there that you could possibly need during your stay. So much thought and attention has obviously gone into making your holiday a memorable one. A lot more restaurants in the area and beach was not crowded in October which was good. Will certainly return to Baan Nai Fun in the future.

 From Hong Kong

Excellent luxury villa!   Whilst the photos are an excellent representation of the villa, as already mentioned, they simply don’t do the place justice and in reality, this villa exceeded our expectations. It has everything we needed and wanted and whilst it feels luxurious, it also feels instantly homely. Shari &amp; Phil have successfully created a home which is modern and also has a traditional Thai theme. I trawled through many villas online and have no doubt in my mind that we picked the right one. We were looking for luxury and style but a place which was also sympathetic of and in keeping with Thai culture and this villa ticks every box.

Not only is the home a perfect destination but its location in Phuket was perfect for us too. The local area is quiet and relaxing but has a great selec tion of restaurants as well as local amenities. You don’t have to go too far to be in the thick of it and enjoy the buzz of the busier resorts if you wish.

Shari and Phil are extremely helpful, thoughtful and knowledgeable. They have thought of every need for their guests which is clearly born out of their experience. Furthermore, their communication and assistance throughout is excellent and the personal touch really enhances the appreciation of the villa and overall experience. We really do recommend this villa!

 From Aberdeen, Scotland

Beautiful, secluded and peaceful. Just returned from 9 nights at this great villa. The view from the pool over the fish filled lagoon was just what was needed - a great way to pass the time doing nothing! The villa itself is really well appointed, congrats to Shari &amp; Phil, everything you could need whilst away was supplied including a welcome pack. We (40ish) travelled with my parents (60+) and our kids (1, 5). Everyone loved the house for different reasons - the kids for the pool and the large open spaces, my parents for the peace and serenity and my husband and I for the ability to have everyone together but not on top of one another. The location is a 10 min walk to Nai Harn village where plenty of food options are available. If you want to shop I would recommend transport but you can arrange this easily. We loved eating at the German Bakery and found Lynnes Spring Rolls (opposite German Bakery) great too. We can also highly recommend P &amp; D Tours for taxi service - very reasonable pricing and new super clean van with courteous drivers. Having stayed in various locations in Thailand before, we really enjoyed the atmosphere of Nai Harn village for a blend of locals, ex-pats and the odd holiday maker. If you want beachside with evening stroll for shopping this may not be for you but if you want a step out of holiday craziness to just relax, cant recommend highly enough.

 From Queenscliff, Australia

Fantastic holiday.  We have stayed in villas all over the world, but this was by far the best place we have stayed in. Phil &amp; Shari were fantastic hosts - every little detail was taken care of, from the initial booking to the car hire. The villa is luxurious, in a beautiful location in the south of the island. Patong Beach was only 20 minutes ride away, if you wanted to experience the expansive nightlife. The weekend market is also highly recommended for the cheap shopping. We loved the south coast, the beaches were less busy and the restaurants were outstanding. The Crepes restaurant with their fresh mango smoothies was our favourite breakfast place. There are also plenty of very good Italian restaurants if you wanted a break from the Thai food. The villa is located in a private estate and the management staff were very courteous and helpful. Cleaners would come every other day - I miss them now we are back at home. A fantastic holiday and we are already planning a return trip.
