Fantastic beach front house on a peaceful beach!
We recently stayed at Michael's fantastic bungalow on the beach for 3 weeks and had an amazing time. His bungalow is bigger and better than his pictures show, and it truly is right on the beach. We ate breakfast on the deck staring out at the ocean each morning. We are a couple with two small children (7 & 2 yrs old), and the ocean in front was perfect for them. There is a coral bed, but between the sand and the corral bed - it's perfect for shallow swimming, and when the tide is high, you can swim out beyond the coral. The area is peaceful, and a great respite from the days activities and busier areas like Chaweng. There is a nice beachfront restaurant next door and another one up on the street (that one has fabulous food & is German-owned, so you can also find German dishes there). There is also a scooter/car rental place in walking distance. Re: Michael's house in particular, we loved it! All the furnishings are high quality, and the place was well-decorated and very clean. We esp. loved the "palapa" that is next to the house, and often had our evening cocktails there. The neighbors (both local and visiting) were great and in fact my son played with the little Thai girl next door most afternoons. It was easy making arrangements with Michael and his on-site manager (Xinnix) was also helpful. Thanks, Michael!
