Glasshouse Phuket | 6B villa | Short walk to 2 beaches | Sea view | Accessible

The Glasshouse is the perfect secluded setting for a relaxed and private vacation with family & friends. Nestled into the jungle hillside and set in an area of 1,140sqm, this modern 6-bedroom house provides some of the best sea-views available in Phuket.

The infinity pool is the centrepiece of the Glasshouse experience and the whole villa is designed for sharing quality experiences and creating lasting memories. Whether you're watching the sunset from the living room or one of our three balconies, relaxing in the shade of the Thai sala or sharing a drink at the bar table, your time at the Glasshouse will be full of special moments.

Located on a small peninsular, the villa is just a few minutes walk from two beautiful unspoiled beaches. Ao Yon beach (east-facing) and Khao Khad beach (west-facing).are both in sheltered bays so, with no rip tides, they're suitable for swimming all year round.

The house is set among landscaped tropical gardens connected by stone pathways and dotted with several terraced areas. The 10m infinity pool is at the heart of the Glasshouse experience and includes a jacuzzi for the ultimate indulgence, day or night.

Loungers on the pool side are perfect for soaking up the sun or move to the Thai style sala with it's sofas and coffee table for some shade. The sala has its own speakers so that you can enjoy chill out music by the pool or perhaps something more lively with cocktails as you watch the sun set across the bay. Outside seating includes; 8 poolside loungers, sofa for 6 in the sala, 4 bar stools.

Partially remodelled in 2024, the spacious open planned living space with panoramic views of Chalong bay spans the entire width of the property and opens directly on to the pool terrace and sala. It includes a dining area with seating for 16 for formal dining, a TV den (75" TV with sound system and a selection of board games for adults & kids) and a triple height sitting area with its own hifi quality sound system. The open design merges with the pool terrace making it ideal for informal, al fresco eating, entertaining or just relaxing. The living space extends upstairs where we have a full-sized table tennis table, an office desk with swivel chair in case you have to work and an outside balcony with a circular day bed. Perfect for meditation, reading or another space for the kids to play. Keep healthy with our yoga mats, TRX and resistance bands.

Our brand new (2024) kitchen is fully equipped with a full range of appliances including dishwasher, induction hob, self-cleaning oven and microwave. Coffee lovers will love our espresso machine, filter coffee maker and moka pot. With our blender, you can start every day with a delicious fresh tropical fruit smoothie. Our kitchen is not just about cooking; the large island with breakfast bar provides an additional social hub.

Also new in 2024, our outside Thai-style kitchen has a gas hob and bespoke 4-burner BBQ grill.

For guests with accessibility needs, we have a chair lift from the car park level up to the main entrance. With our poolside bedroom and open plan living area (kitchen, dining area, living area, TV den) all on the ground floor, the villa can be enjoyed as a single-level wheelchair accessible step-free space. Please contact us to discuss your needs and we will do our best to help.

The water in the villa is sourced from our own well and we have drinking water on tap so there's no need to buy single-use plastic bottles of water.

With six bedrooms, five en-suite bathrooms, guest WC, outside shower, new western & Thai kitchens, huge open plan living space, TV den with U-shaped sofa, private swimming pool with jacuzzi, tropical gardens, carport and terrace, the Glasshouse is spacious and can comfortably accommodate up to 20 guests (maximum 18 adults). Infants up to 2 years don't count towards our maximum.

The Glasshouse can accommodate up to 18 guests in beds with the following options for sleeping arrangements:

Master bedroom: king-size bed + king-size sofa bed (en-suite bathroom, 50" TV. walk-in closet, balcony with swing love seat)
2nd bedroom: king-size bed + queen-size sofa bed (*en-suite bathroom, 50" TV, balcony)
Poolside bedroom: king-size bed (en-suite bathroom)
Garden view room: 2 x single beds (*en-suite bathroom, 50" TV)
5th bedroom: king-size bed, separate private living room with double sofa bed (en-suite bathroom, 50" TV)
6th bedroom: king-size bed (en-suite bathroom)
We also have 3 cots and 3 high chairs.
*one en-suite bathroom is shared between 2nd and garden-view bedrooms
The entrances to the 5th & 6th bedrooms are separate from the main house.

The rental includes a basic maid cleaning service and we can arrange whatever additional services you need to make your stay as indulgent as you'd like. These optional services include airport transfers, a chef to prepare your meals, extra maid cleaning with changes in towels and bed linen, in-house massage, nanny/baby-sitter etc. To minimise the cost to guests and to support the local community, these are paid directly to the provider in Phuket. There are no platform fees and we don't take commission.

Our private and romantic setting with stunning views across the bay make it a perfect location for a special event. We've hosted a number of weddings and other events at the Glasshouse and can help with the arrangements. Please enquire before booking.

The Glasshouse has an electric gate to provide privacy and security as well as an alarm system.

There is sheltered parking available for two cars inside the gate.

To encourage thoughtful use of resources, electricity is included in the rental up to 200units/day. This will cover regular use of the villa and pool with modest use of aircon. Any electricity use over this is charged at cost.

The Cape Panwa area of Phuket is perhaps one of the island's best-kept secrets. The villa is situated on a small peninsula and close to two separate beaches, each just a few minutes walk away. Khao Khad is 1-2 minutes walk from the villa with nearly 1km stretch of beach. It’s undeveloped with just a few beach bars and restaurants. Most guests prefer Ao Yon beach which is 2-3 minutes walk and is also quiet and undeveloped. Both beaches are relatively sheltered and don’t have the high waves and rip tides that the west coast beaches experience.

All the essential amenities you need to make your stay convenient, comfortable and indulgent are just a short walk away. There’s a Family Mart convenience store about 300 metres away open 24/7. It has an ATM and stocks a wide range of products including drinks, ice, snacks, confectionery, ice cream, toiletries, and other essentials. They also sell alcohol during permitted hours (11am-2pm, 5pm-midnight).

If you want to explore further afield, it's easy to get around with local taxi vans (can generally accommodate 11 passengers)

The nearest outdoor food markets are in Borae, a nearby village. One is open all day and the other, slightly closer and more interesting, is open late afternoon to early evening. These sell fruit, vegetables, fresh fish, meat & cooked food as well as Thai desserts and other local products. The nearest supermarket is about 5 minutes away in Makham Bay.

Phuket attractions that are within 5-10 minutes of the Glasshouse include Phuket Aquarium, Ao Yon waterfall, Khao Khad Tower & Viewpoint, and Tarzan Adventure. Water-based activities such as kayaking, sailing, snorkeling & diving start out from Ao Yon beach.

Phuket's other attractions are scattered across the island and most places you'd want to visit are within a 15-45 minute drive.

The big international style supermarkets in Phuket Central are about 15-20 minutes away. If there’s something very specific that you need, Central Food Hall at Floresta has a world-class range of imported products.

The villa is always offered with exclusive use of the house, pool, and gardens.

To encourage thoughtful use of resources, electricity is included up to 200units/day. This will cover regular use of the villa and pool with modest use of aircon. Any use over this is charged at cost.

A piece of heaven
What can I say about the Glass House that haven’t been said? The view is heavenly - from any spot in the villa. Bradley is extremely detail oriented and made sure our stay is well attended from the moment we land. Our drivers are excellent and introduced us to great restaurants as well as outdoor markets. They also help booked tours to Koh Phi Phi and James Bond island, both are must do. We were very fortunate and had little rain during our stay. Even when raining, the view from the villa is fantastic. Our host, Pond, is wonderful woman and made sure we are taken care of. The only average thing was probably the chef, perhaps we were not used to his way of cooking. There’s a 7-11 right at the foot of our driveway, makes it really convenient to get miscellaneous things - water, ramen, etc… We were pleasantly surprised at how good the coffee it offered. We definitely would come back to the Glass House sometime in the future as well as brag to our friends about it.

Fabulous stay!!!
Our stay at the Glasshouse villa was a magical experience. Beautiful villa with exceptionally friendly and efficient management, nothing was too much trouble. Stunning views, great food from the organised chef, prompt taxi service, can't fault anything! The villa feels secluded, however the beach and local amenities mean that everything is on your doorstep. An unforgettable holiday!

Amazing View - everything you could ask for.
The stay was fantastic. Worked well for our large group of 16 people. We had adults and children from the ages of 7-18. One of our favorite things was the chef we hired. She was amazing and the food was some of the best food we had on our trip. Can’t say enough about the host and the property manager. Always very responsive and always answered our questions quickly and accurately. Thanks for the great stay!!

Birthday Celebration
I had such a good time here, celebrating an important milestone ; my transition from Season 5 to Season 6. Friends and family came to stay in this gorgeous, spacious and airy villa. I had the master bedroom, which was bigger than my first apartment back home. Every day I woke up and swam in the pool, admiring the stunning view over the bay. The kitchen and dining facilities are excellent, and we cooked on a couple of days, but we were able to book a chef service, which produced three amazing meals, particularly the lunch on the day of my birthday, which was beyond delicious. The villa is quite well situated - away from the road but within easy walking of a pharmacy, massage outlets and restaurants. The local 7-11 is close and open 24 hours. If you want to get to Patpong and the nightlife there, it is quite a long drive, and you need to hire a van, but if you're with a group or family like I was, then the Glasshouse and the local area has everything you need for a wonderful stay.

A Piece of Paradise in Phuket
We didn’t think it was possible, but our return trip to the Glasshouse after 8 years was even better than before! The area has more shops and restaurants within a few minutes walk so you get the best of both worlds now - a secluded oasis to relax and watch the spectacular sunsets from the pool and interesting places to explore when you go out. All the attention to detail - from the check-in to recommendations for food, local markets to explore, and excursions around the island - made the entire trip feel very personalised for our special birthday celebration. We even had a private chef for a couple of nights who cooked in the outdoor kitchen and made some delicious local Thai dishes that we are still savouring! We were there during the low season, so expect a few tropical thunderstorms (a welcome relief from the heat and humidity). You’ll still get gorgeous weather most of the time. And no matter what time of year you go the Glasshouse is a great value with 6 en suite rooms (get ready to fight for the master BR!) and a private beach to walk along. The Glasshouse is a great place to stay if you want to avoid the touristy and tacky parts of the island. Best in Phuket!

Absolutely Amazing
Absolutely Amazing! The villa is located on Panwa Cape with lush rainforest / jungle in the back, a stunning view of the bay and eastern coastline of Phuket with the crown jewel being a view of the Big Bhudda statue. It is walking distance away from two separate beaches - Ao Yon (east) and Khao Khad (west). We spent a lot of time on Khao Khad, taking morning walks, though there is little room to walk on the beach during high tide. Personally, it made the walk more fun. There are massage parlors, restaurants, scooter rentals, cafes and even a 7-11 within walking distance. The only negative would be if you are interested in Patong Beach area or Phuket Town there is a drive associated with either location. Patong Beach being 30-40 minutes away and Phuket Town being 20-30 minutes away. The area of the villa is quiet and gives a very laid back feel to it. Our experience with the villa started when we booked the villa. Bradley, the owner of the villa, was extremely helpfully in figuring out the ins and outs of the area as well as working with the manager and chef in Phuket. We were a party of 15 people (10 Adults and 5 Teenagers) and were going to stay at the villa for 7 nights. We had arranged a rental bus (Toyota Commuter) to ferry us around for the week. There was ample parking space for it in the villa. We arrived quite early at the villa and had been given permission to check-in early by Bradley. The villa is gorgeously decorated. Each room is stunning in it’s own right and taken together is amazing. The piece de resistance however is the patio and pool area which gave the stunning views mentioned above. We ended up spending a lot of time there. The teenagers enjoyed having their own room, wifi, the ping-pong table upstairs and of course the pool. They ended up using the gazebo more than the adults in the party as the speakers were on Apple Play. We had arranged for the first days two meals to be created by the chef. We loved his preparations of Italian food we had for lunch and of course the Thai food for dinner was spectacular especially considering our whole party was vegetarian. The only reason we didn’t repeat the chef was that we planned to be out and about in the evenings. Really, all you can say about the Glasshouse in Phuket is Absolutely Amazing. From the service by Bradley (the owner) to the manager (Khun Pond) to the chef they provided, to the villa itself - it was in the lap of luxury.

Amaaaaazzziiinnggg!!!!!!!
Our experience at the Glasshouse was absolutely amazing!!!!!! If you are looking for the perfect place to stay in Phuket that is great for spending time with family or friends look no further. The Villa itself is stunning, great views in a superb setting. From the Villa there is a perfect view of the "Big Budda" on the mountain top from the poolside. The Villa is a home away from home with everything you need. All staff went above and beyond to assure that our stay was as comfortable as possible. Let's start with Khun Pond, the house manager. She is seriously one of the sweetest women you would ever meet. Very polite, professional and solution minded although we really didnt encounter any issues whatsoever. Khun Man the driver is the absolute best, very professional, punctual, great personality. The price for transportation for our party of 9 was reasonable. For one flat rate for the day you can do a tour on a budget which works out to be more budget friendly than paying a tour company. His recommendations were great being that we didnt know much about Phuket. He was also a safe driver which is important. We also opt to book with the tour company next to 7 Eleven with Mr. Bao who offered great rates with reputable tour companies for activities much further away from the Villa. The Chef referred by Mr. Bradley was excellent, the food was amazing and worth every penny. If you have a large party its worth hiring the Chef, he will do all the shopping, food prep, set up and clean up. I could go on and on of how amazing our overall experience was, but you have to experience it for yourself, but I tell you one thing, you will not regret it. We look forward to visiting again soon. Thank you Bradley his staff for providing excellent service to the max. Till we meet again. Happy Customers

Amazing and Everything we hoped for
The property was amazing and lived up to the description in every way. The chef, Nui, we hired through Bradly was fantastic and produced the BEST Thai food any of us have ever tasted. It was such a bonus not to worry about shopping, cooking and washing up. Bradly was easy to communucate with right from the very beginning, he was very prompt in replying and helpful in providing information. The villa manager was also extremely responsive to any request or query we had. It all made for being a fantastic holiday and it exceeded our expectations for a family reunion.

The BEST girls trip ever!!!!
Our experience was AMAZING!!!!! The house was beautiful in pictures and even more beautiful in person. We had a group of 14 ladies and we all slept comforably in the villa. The owner did a very good job informing us of all the amenities they offer. We utilized the Chef who was super accommodating and the food was GREAT!!! The taxi service was readily available, just be sure to call 1-2hrs in advance, Khun Pond (villa manager) and the owner Bradley communicated very well with us prior to our arrival. Prior to our arrival we arranged massages at the villa and the ladies came with 5-6 Masseuses which was perfect for our large group. The air conditioning was not an issue, we did go over a tad bit but as long as the doors are open then be sure to turn the air conditioning off. The pool area has its own speakers and lights inside the pool for night swim and there are two grills on the patio. 7/11 is directly behind the house and their is an ATM and money exchange right behind the house. I would advise you not to exchange your money in China (if this is your layover) at all, as there are NO FEES to exchange over in Thailand.

MARK R., Las Vegas

It was an okay stay
Overall nice property. Owner is responsive with a nice property manager. I usually give lenient reviews but lots of maintenance issues when we stayed. Dryer not working. No internet for the first night (very important for the group). 2 AC unit kept on turning off when we wanted to use it (appeared to be a circuit breaker issue). Positive is they tried to get everything in working order as quickly as possible. The one thing I understand on the owners part (variable per stay) but would of rather have it priced into the price was the electricity allowance. Our group was not on the property in the day time for 2 of the 4 days. Turned off all lights and AC units and still had to pay for additional electricity allowance. If you don’t want to have to worry about having to turn everything off; this is not the place to stay. To my recollection; this Information was given after you book and pay for your stay. The information that there is a certain electricity allowance is given a week prior to stay and not prior. Deceptive for this part. Lastly, we had a large overall group for the trip and 16 of us stayed at the glass house. The rest stayed at a nearby hotel. We had a day excursion that we all wanted to be picked up in one location (glass house). The owner, did not like this. In my opinion, not unreasonable as the others (not staying on the property) are only waiting for the transport. Understandable, it can be a liability issue but with these factors in mind. A hotel may have been a better option for a large group. Which we did prior staying at the Glass House. Overall, a nice stay but not the best. Felt like the property is getting dated but having a nice property manager gave us comfort. Owner was responsive. Lastly, another positive... lots of information given and resources available. Transport available pretty easily. Beautiful views. There are definitely pros and cons on this one.

Beautiful villa
We rented The Glass House for our special wedding anniversary for 2 weeks with our family. There were 11 of us including 2 children and a baby. The facilities are so spacious that we never felt crowded. The owner, Bradley, is an excellent host and very attentive during the booking process ( and quick at returning the deposit). It is well located with nearby restaurants, bars, massages. The nearer of the two beaches is a bit abandoned but the second (only an extra 100 metres) is pleasant with bars, restaurants and a beautiful view of the bay. The interior is reasonably well fitted out although some of the appliances in the kitchen could do with upgrading (like the small 2 slice toaster for 11 people). The bedrooms are comfortable. The master bedroom is sumptuously large, with a beautiful bathroom including a sunken tub. The pool is great, just large enough, with a small stepped area where kids who don't swim can play. But beware, it is not fenced so keep an eye on the children! Sunset by the pool is spectacular. See the sun go down behind the giant Buddha on the mountain on the other side of the bay while sipping your tipple of choice. Great for photographers. All the service providers recommended by the property were good. We availed ourselves of extra cleaning, a cook for several days when we stayed in and a nanny (who was excellent). We also used the taxi service next door which is also efficient, polite and pleasant. Finding fault with this property is really nit picking but I would suggest that you check that everything works, especially lighting when you arrive. If it doesn't, phone the housekeeper and she gets things sorted efficiently and asap. Definitely recommended.

Amazing Family Holiday
We have just returned home from the most amazing trip we could have dreamt of. We gathered in Thailand, most of us coming from 3 different areas in Australia and met our son and family there who live in Switzerland. The Glasshouse was the perfect venue for this gathering and we could not have dreamt how magical the experience was. From the very first enquiry, booking, payment and welcome on arrival, through to refund of bond, it was handled with complete professionalism, efficiency and open communication. We must have asked poor Bradley hundreds of questions ( which in hindsight were completely unwarranted) and he always got back to us promptly. Thank you Bradley.! The house is just as it is advertised on the websites, huge, clean and beautiful. The staff made sure our stay was enjoyable and we could highly recommend this venue.

Wedding at the Glass House
Just wanted to pass on to any interested renters that this Villa is the best. The house was very comfortable. The view beautiful. We held our daughters wedding at the Villa and it was magical. Ceremony done in time to walk the newly married couple to the beach and get some great sunset pictures. The Beach Bar is half a mile away and what a place. View-food-prices. And Bradley's contact Mr. Bao was priceless. Set up all transportation needs and went above and beyond setting up day excursions on a speed boat, ferry to Phi Phi and private boat to Coral Island. This man was great! No second doubts that I would return. Highly recommend for any travelers and there family. Tim Mouzakis Would recommend to anyone that wants

Wonderful vacation
16 people - aged 3-70 - spent 10 days here. Everything, house, beds, pool was great and having the convenience of a chef most of the days, we really lived in the house. We went fishing, snorkeling, shopping, hiking with the help of the always helpful Taxi service next door - bought necessities from 7-11 and had water and soda etc brought to the door from Lotus Supermarket. Cleaning etc was excellent and we could always count on quick help from the house keeper. It will be difficult to find a house better suited for big families - at least five stars. Not the least - great communication with the owner from start to finish - always responsive and helpful
