Sky 5 is made for slowing down. Two levels, 103 sqm, up to four guests, and a view of the Gulf of Thailand from nearly everywhere you sit.

The king-size master suite takes the upper floor, with its own en-suite bathroom. The lower level holds a second bedroom with twin beds, handy for friends joining the trip or simply for extra breathing room.

Every bedroom has air-conditioning, ceiling fans, premium linens and an en-suite with rain shower and granite finishes.

Mornings start in the open-plan living space, where sliding glass doors open onto the pool deck. There’s a 55″ Smart TV for lazy evenings and a full kitchen (4-burner gas stove, microwave, oven, rice cooker, food mixer) for anyone who likes to cook on holiday. Some people do.

The infinity pool is the centrepiece. Swim, float, watch the sun drop into the sea. The alfresco table for four handles the rest. Behind the scenes, Bay Villas runs housekeeping, maintenance, front office and concierge. In-villa spa treatments, island experiences and meals from Flow Café are a message away. Private transfers make arrival and departure painless.

Honeymoon, anniversary or a long overdue break. Sky 5 keeps things quiet, private and very easy on the eyes.
