Hello, hello, hello.
Hello everyone and welcome back to my channel. My name is Victoria.
Today we are back to Samui for the first time this year.
Let's visit this 5-bedroom, 11-bathroom and sea-view village that was in my thoughts in the last 6 months and finally we can show it to all of you.
This village was built on the hills of Shawangoi, with 2,700 meters of area built, distributed on 4 floors and located on a terrain of 1,608 meters.
The village was built in 2022 and won a Dot Property Award for Best Luxury Architectural Design in 2023.
We were lucky to stay in the village and really experience it in its essence.
From enjoying the spa, the hotel with capacity for up to 1,000 bottles, to the Moroccan-themed game room, not to mention the precious team that was so attentive to us during our stay.
I am excited to show you this magnificent building. It is listed as a C-Property for US $ 6.5 million.
For more information or questions, do not hesitate to click on the link in my description box below, but, for now, let's take a tour of the house.
Welcome to the village!
We are at the top of the hill near Shawangoi, which means that, when we enter, the view will be amazing.
But, just because of this parking space here, we are gathered by a lot of vegetation and also by the mountains that open around us.
You have the stone sidewalk with three parking spaces under the shade, as well as a flat terrain there like your garden.
Now, this space is perfect for when you are walking around with your car.
And then taking us through these stairs, as well as through the accessibility ramp.
It takes us to the last floor of the house, just through this old wooden door in an oil blue color.
It will really define the tone of what we will see inside.
There will be many colors, many eclectic styles, as well as mixtures of cultures from the Middle East and Thailand combined inside.
Upon entering the village, before we proceed, this corridor on my left side takes you straight to the professional Thai kitchen, where there is a private chef available 24 hours a day, at your request.
On my right side, there is a very cool detail.
It is a wooden slab that was sculpted.
There is even a sculpted facial mask on top.
Apparently, it is a traditional Isan.
Is it Isan?
In the past, people in Isan used these facial masks and they look a bit like that.
It must be an old wooden sculpture, but it is actually used as a privacy wall between the lower floor, where the spa is.
So, the spa has an open roof concept, where you can really see and spy through these slabs down here, which is a very cool little section here.
Now, let's walk a little further.
This is the main accommodation, all under the same roof, an open concept.
You have windows around that bring natural light.
And, of course, you have the sea view right in front of you.
Sculpted on both sides are the mountains, and then, right in front of you, is the ocean.
It's so beautiful, the color is dazzling.
And at night, all the houses in the city kind of light up.
I mean, we're on an island, but you can see all the lights in all the neighborhoods here, which is also a different way of having a view of the sea at night.
Back to this room, we have an inclined roof at the top.
As well as this alcove with a beautiful design up there.
Roof fans and beautiful furniture.
Pieces.
This house is fully furnished, from loose furniture to the antiques you see.
All of this costs US $ 6.5 million.
Back to this room, the beautiful bohemian carpet and this center table, which seems to used to be an old wooden door that they turned into this center table.
It's such a beautiful piece.
One, very comfortable sofas on both sides, bringing many different touches of color through the cushions, the carpets, as well as the walls being painted differently.
And a lot of natural lighting coming from all sides, as well as vegetation that was planted all over the house, also inside the house, which we'll talk about soon.
Going a little further in this room, you have this bar area, a wooden bar counter with bar seats at the end right there.
Fully equipped with a refrigerator, as well as a lot of storage space, cupboards, as well as a sink right here, displaying a lot of alcoholic beverages everywhere too.
And it's such a nice rest area, just in this room itself and a porcelain display there in the corner.
A small area to be nice with these orange leather seats, which is really cool.
Looking back, for all the space.
It's definitely an eclectic style, with colors that really match, contrasting with different interior designs, which I absolutely love.
It's something different, something we've never seen before, and it's going to get even crazier as we go along on this tour.
Now, let's go up to this pool deck.
This wooden deck has a salience that extends, giving us shade in this part of the wooden deck.
In addition to having all these trees implemented inside the wooden deck to give us extra shade, you have options for puffs to laziness right here, as well as a sofa embedded in this recessed corner.
And through this corner, you can access the shallowest part of the pool.
So it goes down slowly and gets a little deeper, maybe up to about a meter high.
And from this point of view, looking back, to the house, it's absolutely beautiful.
It looks very modern and elegant, but with a lot of touches of nature that surrounds us.
And in this deck here, we actually have network seats with some comfort puffs.
And it really looks like you're about to jump off the edge while relaxing in this little area.
Now, if that wasn't enough, you also have an extensive garden with a very large flat area.
It's definitely harder to find flat landscapes around the hills that are so steep.
So, having this in particular, I think it's very special.
Not only that, you can have pets wandering around.
They also added an entire barbecue area for you and your family to enjoy right here in this cabin, surrounded by nature, without neighbors on your right.
And the sun really comes from this side here and gets right behind us.
But this is the side of the last floor.
Connecting us to the other end of this last floor, actually, to this bridge with glass balustrades.
And this is your indoor patio.
You have open ceilings at the top for a little pleasant natural light and a butterfly that just flew.
This is amazing, it was so crazy.
This height actually extends from the three floors to the entertainment area and the tree that goes from the floor below to the roof and goes up to the horizon.
It's really unbelievable how they implemented this with the stone wall that goes up to the floor below.
It's such a special resource to have in this house and I've never seen anything like it before.
And look at that.
I'm literally crossing a bridge to your western kitchen and your dining room.
In the western kitchen, you have this big island all equipped with electric appliances and induction stoves and some bar benches on board.
The first sink here and the two-door refrigerator also give it.
Many cabinets below and above, using the same matte black that matches all the appliances you see in this room.
Now, this is not the only kitchen.
They also expanded and added a Thai professional kitchen equipped with a professional chef, which is Kia.
She worked at a five-star hotel and now became a private chef in this house.
Another special feature of this house is that the developers themselves, the elves, set up a team to serve all the guests in this house,
from the village manager to the maids, as well as a steward and a security guard at night.
All four of them, if you buy this house and want to change the team,
they will help train your new team for a year until they are ready to give up and give all their perceptions to the new team.
So, this is also something very cool to have, because they must know the details of this house.
And the dinner table itself, is a wooden table with resin that flows through the middle,
reminding the ocean, as well as some beautiful luminaries hanging from above.
Wooden tables combining on both sides displaying some antiquities and small decorations,
as well as, the view on this side is full of coconut trees, palm trees and the curves of the mountains.
While the kitchen, if you are looking out, has the ocean right in front of you.
The glass sliding door leads you to the deepest part of the pool, the infinity pool, which is absolutely beautiful.
Leaving the kitchen, here on my right side, as I mentioned, is the professional kitchen,
as well as the host's WC and some storage space.
Now, to take us to the lower floor, there are three separate paths.
The first is the stairs on my left side here.
The second is near the pool deck, and the third is near the kitchen, which takes you directly to the main suite, where we will go next.
Going down to the lower level, here is the main suite.
It has this privacy wall.
On my left side, there is this carved wood feature that blocks the stairs that take you to the lower level.
This also extends to the balcony of the main room, with a small glass slide with a view to the ocean, as well as some nice
laziness in the front.
You have two accesses to the front, here or through the side windows.
Both have sliding doors that open so that you can have a natural breeze in this room.
The King Size bed itself has the white and sanded bed structure that was used by the privacy wall there, as well as all the furniture you will see in this room.
A beautiful upholstery really brings that bohemian touch to this room and a nice bench at the end of it with a view to the view.
Two headboards combining on each side, as well as chairs on each side, TV mounted on my left side here,
while the closet itself is padded on the entire back wall, which also adds a combing space in the corner.
And this headboard also works as a desk and chair on the back here.
So, it's multipurpose.
And after this wooden door, it takes us to the suite master.
The suite master uses black tiles and gray tiles for the wall.
So, it really darkens the space and contrasts with the room itself.
You have double piers for him and for her, with a matte black finish that you saw.
Also in the supports and in the towels holders.
In the corner, here is your footbath with a single support.
Once again, the matte black right next to the privacy windows that can also be opened and bring natural breeze because they are also covered by trees from all the neighbors around.
So, it's very good that, even having privacy windows, you also have a second privacy of the vegetation that grew so much around the whole house.
Now, the shower itself, you have an internal shower and it also connects to your external shower, which I think is really cool.
Look at this space here, I'm outdoors.
One, you have wooden slats that kind of block you from the outside, but you still have this natural light coming from above, and you literally have the palm trees curving over your head.
Now, this is where the fun begins.
There are so many entertainment points in this whole house.
This is one of the coolest features I've ever seen.
It's a cellar that holds more than a thousand bottles.
It's wrapped in glass, so it almost looks like a glass house.
I'm literally standing on a glass that goes to the bottom floor.
One, you have the stairs that look like you're in one of those old libraries that slide through all the cupboards for your wine cups.
You can go up to the top floor and choose the bottles of wine you want.
This is amazing in itself.
Looking downstairs, you also have a view of the courtyard that is inside your house.
So, you have this view.
You also look and spy the view of the sea, as it is at the top of this floor here.
And on my left side here, you have three wine refrigerators.
I'll take you downstairs.
We have a stone wall right here, which we saw prominently outdoors, and they also brought it inside.
And you know we're in Gatsumui when you see the stones being integrated into the house itself and used as such a cool resource.
Building all this comfort and implementing all these resources must have been very difficult.
But, as they did, it was amazing.
Even the air conditioning outlets hidden on the floor of the loft, in addition to having support for wine cups stuck at the bottom of the floating stairs.
And, of course, this courtyard that is bringing a lot of natural light and a little vegetation for such a cool space.
One, and yes, look at that.
It's absolutely amazing to enjoy a good glass of wine, playing some games with your friends.
They put a real estate board game right here, and this is just the beginning of the entertainment room.
Let's skip to the next one.
And now, welcome to the Moroccan-themed game room.
This is an amazing room.
So many intricate designs of these fabric ceilings that cover the curtains to the bottom with stuffed stuffed animals.
And the TV mounted on the side here for you to relax.
The softest sofa of all time is this, as well as this beautiful center table here.
One, this is a glass covered inside, with different types of tiles with patterns, as well as metals that kind of sew them in place.
It's absolutely beautiful.
The carpets combining that you will see around this whole room.
But, once again, the colors really mix, and honestly, I feel that this is my room here.
I came dressed especially for this room.
And I love the different textures of the carved wood, the different seams on the plushies and the ruffles on the pillows.
It's just amazing how they managed to put it all together.
And that, let me play a little song for you.
I saw that and it makes such a beautiful noise.
Ready.
🎵
It's amazing.
Now, after this wall of fabric that separates us for more fun.
You have your support table right here in this chair that looks like a birdcage.
Beautiful fabrics and layers of carpets under my feet.
As well as the pool table here with a beautiful embellishment coming from above and a nice little bar area in the background.
And this origami that was transformed into a bar area.
You can really keep your wine glasses here, all your bottles and all your games.
It's such a cool piece.
Now, as you can see, all this is loose furniture.
If you don't like this design, it's very easy to take it off and completely transform it into your design.
But I love that every room I enter, it's like I'm entering a different world.
And I never get bored, as if I were in a small glass house with a garden and now I'm in Morocco.
And now, I'm going to show you the coolest spa I've ever been to in my life.
And it's probably my favorite room in this house.
Now, before we enter the spa, I need to do a quick stop at the gym.
The floor is cushioned, the stone kind of projects from the floor.
I don't even know where, but it's a gym fully equipped with a chair, bench,
in addition to some equipment around, dumbbells and mirrors on both sides.
And it also has a glass window that allows natural light to enter, even in the back of this floor.
And it's right next to the spa, which only makes sense because,
after you finish going to the gym, you want to relax, take a dip in the ice bath or go to the steam sauna.
Entering my favorite room of all time.
Guys, this is amazing. The shades of colors in this room are absolutely beautiful.
This takes me to outer space. I'm not even in Samui or Thailand right now.
Look at this lake and pool that were sculpted on the stones.
And it could also be transformed into an ice bath, which is a little colder than the external pool.
There is also a waterfall to always have running water here, it is absolutely beautiful.
The curved edges throughout the space are very free and flow perfectly in this room.
Old pieces all over the walls like mirrors, which is so beautiful.
This glass here that gives the sauna steam.
And on my right side is the shower, as well as double sink to wash after being in the pool.
And here is the massage room with two beds covered by a beautiful blue oil color on the walls,
combining with the curtains.
You can open them and it really goes to the gym.
In this corner here, you have your shower sculpted in the corner.
And I'm loving this iridescent tile they used.
It really looks like I'm in a magical place.
It's not real, it's actually unreal.
But yes, let's go a little further to the steam sauna.
It also has its own shower, a pleasant and relaxing space.
It's really a dream to have that.
And also be in nature, where you have the sunlight shining from above, straight to the stones and to the pool on this floor.
After the showers and the sink, we have this beautiful conversation space right here.
With a little pleasant natural light coming from above the plants, which also come from above.
And I love the smooth edges here.
You can have a good cup of tea and relax while waiting to enter the hydromassage bathtub, or the steam sauna, which is right in front of us.
It's a beautiful space.
You have windows that lead to the pool.
So, there's also some natural light coming in just in that space.
Now, around here, it kind of curls up and makes a circle, and we go back to the areas of the Moroccan living room, going through the sink itself.
Now, near the gym and the spa area, we also have a guest room on this side.
It has a theme similar to what we saw on the main suite, using sanded wood and painted white on all the bed structures, as well as on the chairs and furniture.
This TV console here is beautiful, carved intricately for the wooden pulleys and closet space.
A beautiful fabric that is falling.
It really looks like a princess should be sleeping in this bed.
It's basically the mini version of the main suite, but it also has its own private balcony in the front.
Here, this one really seems isolated because it's on this side because on the right side here, you don't have neighbors.
It's just the mountains and the chickens and the birds that sing to you when you wake up in the morning.
And, of course, the view hits your face well when you wake up in the morning.
Turning the corner here, going through the bed on this back wall here, you have your own closet, as well as the combing space.
And this desk chair and table that actually work as a headboard for your bed here.
And after these double doors, it takes us to the private bathroom.
Once again, using black tiles and gray walls to really contrast with the rest of the room.
Actually, you have the bathroom that is singing to you now.
It's a Japanese bathroom, so the minute you get close, it basically starts to calm you down, which is very funny.
Two sink for him and for her with the matte black finishing the shower on the back wall here.
And what I love about each bathroom is that they have their own bathroom too, there are two sink and their own external shower.
So, no matter what happens, if you are in the main suite, in the children's room or in the guest room, everyone will have the same features in the guest bathroom.
So you feel important, no matter where you are, you just choose the view you like the most.
Leaving the guest room, you have a large terrace right here with a beautiful lawn with a view of the landscape, with options for slippers, puffs and a slipper.
Now, we are at the top of the hill near Shawangoi, the nearest beach, right in front of you, is Coral Cove.
You also have Silver Beach, which is very famous for the white sand beach and crystal clear waters.
And at the top of this hill, you have many options for restaurants.
You even have the Jungle Club up here, which is very famous for Thai food and for the view.
Conveniently, if you are thinking of living here with your family, there is an international school just down the hill.
So, it is literally just 5 minutes away.
Ten minutes away, you have the Central, which is a shopping center, as well as the Shawang District, with many bars and restaurants.
And Fishermans is about 20 minutes away from you, which is where we went last night to enjoy the local food,
as well as all the arts and fabrics made there and the fashion.
So much of all the local residents gathered in one place is at Fishermans and is very close to the beach.
In fact, I bought Jade's bracelets from there, as well as the stress and I really feel that I am incorporating life on the island.
We arrived at the lowest floor.
There are three rooms of guests on this floor, as well as a private home theater.
I'll take you to the first guest room here.
We have a floating wooden bed, a king size bed with a view to your balcony, which also extends to the balcony of the common area.
And that, of course, has a view to the sea.
What I love is that, no matter where you are in this house, you are enjoying the view.
And also the vegetation that surrounds the corner of this house.
Combining with the floating bed.
You also have the same type of wood for the built-in closet that extends to two combing spaces, one on each side of the other.
The TV is mounted on top of pieces of furniture to match the wood, which I really love.
The running door that takes us to the bathroom.
And in the bathroom, it's the same, just like we saw in other rooms, using black tiles for the floor, gray for the walls.
Your own private bathroom that can be seen through this glass, right here.
It's right on the edge of the corner, kind of floating alone, with a coconut tree within reach if you were to open the window.
Leaving the guest room, as I mentioned, you have this terrace spread out right here that separates it from three of the rooms.
It also has its own bar and popcorn machine because we are close to the private cinema at home.
Behind these doors, you have some closets almost like a compact kitchen with its own fridge for you to store all your sodas and water while you are on this lower floor.
And the cinema is right here.
Welcome to the movie theater.
You have some really cool posters of iconic movies on the walls here.
And after these doors, we come to the room where we will spend most of the time.
It has walled walls around the iconic movie theater bedside tables on this side and, over here, it opens a little more and has a projector, which is amazing.
And see how big this space is.
It's amazing.
This is the perfect movie theater to relax, enjoy and relax with your whole family.
And also on this ground floor, there are two smaller rooms that I would say could be where the children would stay.
This would definitely be the children's floor.
You have your popcorn machine here, your own little kitchen, just like the movie theater.
No child will ask for anything else.
At the end of this corridor, there are the last two guest rooms.
I'll show you what's in the corner.
And here we are in the last guest room.
Once again, a floating bed structure using a darker tone of wood that matches the closets.
In addition to the wall at the bottom, you have your closet that also extends to your combing space.
This room has a stunning view in the corner.
It blocks all this side of the mountain, so you can only see the view and the exuberant vegetation on your right side.
It's absolutely stunning and beautiful.
Now, in the bathroom, once again, there are double sink for him and her, your own bathroom, a free air space, as well as a shower, fully equipped.
Once again, no comfort has been lowered.
However, each room has all the features you can imagine.
And, finally, a very important feature that is not well known throughout the island is really having this underground parking lot right here for three of your cars, which leads directly to the lowest floor of the house.
It has its automatic doors and also on the outside of this side.
It looks so cool, very modern.
You can really see all the way to the top floor and all the elegant lines that run outside.
But this is a necessity, mainly because it has a flat terrain enough to park cars and all guests can park on the top floor, near the main entrance.
I hope you enjoyed watching this tour around the house.
It is listed on Seaproperty for 6.5 million dollars.

It can also be in Gatsamui. See you later.
