the villa was perfect and the food fantastic
barbara jones (August 16th, 2011) - total 94%
Well what can I say - after six years without a holiday it met all my expectations, the villa was perfect and the food fantastic, read two books, relaxed, and did the touristy thing for one day-perfect, that was just enough, two nights in Singapore on the way home with drinks at Raffles-what a way to finish the whole thing was excellent.
All I can say is the food that was prepared for us by Noi & May was fantastic, in fact we said if she wanted to come to Australia we would set her up in a restaurant, so make sure you look after the excellent staff you have in those two - otherwise I will pinch them.
I would like you to email me your rates for Aug/ Sep 2012. Many Thanks and please thank Noi & May again for me after the recharge of my batteries - it was just the ticket!!!!!
so special was the kindness, smiles and outstanding service

My family of eight (six children) had a wonderful stay of 11 nights at Villa Malee during July 2011. What made the stay so special was the kindness, smiles and outstanding service from the staff, the sumptuous meals home at the villa and the nice location close to Kata Beach. Kun Noi and the staff went out of their way to attend to our every need, even if it was something small or was after-hours. For my family, this was a much better option than staying in a hotel.
you have created the absolute paradise

We had a FANTASTIC stay at Villa Malee, you have created the absolute paradise there... the staff is fantastic and May's cooking!!!!!! WOW!!!! Everything is so well organised, food for the kids,soft drinks by the pool, I forget now but we have been thinking a lot about how well you have organised everything. Kun Noi is so helpful and kind, we had a fantastic time and we will never enjoy again a stay at a hotel!
I am already preparing for finding another opportunity to come back, this time with my sister probably, hopefully next year at the same season.
the villa surpassed all expectations
Mike and Penny Tanner (April 24th, 2011) - total 96%
Back in UK now having all had a wonderful time in Villa Malee. Wanted to get in touch to tell you haw much we all appreciated our break. Noi and May saw to it that everything was 5 star.
They could not have been more accommodating and helpful to us. Every challenge was met with a smile and a special "your welcome"! The villa surpassed all expectations and everything laid on to make the holiday so good. We will just have to visit Thailand again as we loved every minute and every mouthful of May's delicious cooking.
the villa was absolutely fantastic
dianne pickard (uk) (April 5th, 2008) - total 96%
What a fantastic holiday had by all...the villa was absolutely fantastic... May and Baa was even more fantastic. This was probably the most relaxing holiday we have ever had, we could not have wanted more. May and Baa were so lovely, they work so hard you would never know that they had another family to look after in the other villa.
The food they cooked was the best Thai food we have ever had, every night was a gastronomic experience, and the children's food was lovely too. We are Thailand sick this week and feeling very sad we should have stayed longer.
We will definitely be back, sooner rather than later. It was so great not having to make any decisions other than what we were doing that day, and what we were eating! Just what a holiday should be like.
What more can I say. I am recommending the villa to all our clients and friends, but they had better not want it next Easter as that is when we wish to come again! Thank you for making the villa and all the extras so special.
staff are wonderful

adrian muir (new zealand) (February 2nd, 2008) - total 96%
We have just arrived back home - Villa Malee was definitely one of our highlights of our 1 month away. May and the rest of your staff did a marvelous job of making us welcome and May's cooking was every bit as good as you claimed..
you are truly very lucky to have such wonderful staff
francis cradock (u.k) (January 27th, 2008) - total 94%
We had a great time thank you. You are truly very lucky to have such wonderful staff in May and Baa. They were always very helpful, friendly, and professional -arranging taxis, days out, great food , nothing was too much trouble for them - always on hand and available yet never intrusive.
Villa Malee was just as described (which is a rarity these days) and was a great base for us to go and explore from without the formality of a hotel.
without a doubt the best family vacation in years
adrian sacco (china) (October 12th, 2007) - total 94%
Right from your arrival you are made to feel welcome by the warm greeting from the staff. The food is 5 Star and there is no need to have dinner anywhere else. The flexibility and assistance of the staff in particular May made this a very relaxing vacation.
Without a doubt the best family vacation in years.
they made us feel so welcome

We all had a great time at the Villa Malee. May and Baa were really fantastic. They made us feel so welcome. Really enjoyed their cooking and May's specials were superb!
We cannot think of anything to improve at Villa Malee. Will certainly recommend this villa to our friends and we hope to return again.
the pool and view were a large draw for us
john madsen (hong kong) (September 11th, 2007) - total 96%
I consider myself a world traveler and I was very very pleased overall with the Villa. The pool and view were a large draw for us. Kuhn May was always there at the right time to serve up something special or take care of transportation.
We opted to stay at the Villa for the majority of two out of three days. The weather was stunning. Imagine that during the rainy season. We had a great boat outing to the Koh Phi Phi's. Kata was a great beautiful beach.
i can't think of anything to improve

Thank you, home safe and had a very relaxing time even if too short. Your Villa is very comfortable and I can't think of anything to improve it at all. The girls were Great, fantastic cooks and so very friendly and helpful. I hope we didn't over impose on them.
Many thanks.
one the best accommodations
lisa (australia) (May 25th, 2007) - total 94%
WOW!!! What a fantastic holiday we had in Villa Malee. We could have quite easily never left the house for the whole 7 days!! Khun May is without a doubt THE BEST Thai cook in the whole of Phuket. We went out to dinner a couple of times (even to the highly recommended restaurants and although they were lovely) the food was never as good as our "home cooked" meals. All the staff, went out of their way to make our stay one to remember. They were friendly and attentive without being at all intrusive.
My friends all commented that Villa Malee was one the best accommodations they've stayed in, particularly for a group. Most of these ladies have travelled extensively throughout the world so that is a great compliment. I'm so glad we found and booked Villa Malee and I'm quite sure you will hear from some, if not all of us again! Thank you so much for all you help
the house is gorgeous and totally suited all of us
pamela & bruce tustin (australia) (March 27th, 2007) - total 94%
We arrived safely home about midday after a wonderful stay at Villa Malee. As advised, May and Baa are absolutely delightful and a pleasure to be around. They are efficient without being obviously "present" for those of us unused to house staff.
The house is gorgeous and totally suited all of us. We all had a wonderful relaxing holiday helped greatly by May and Baa.
your villa was the perfect base
vicki (canada) (March 1st, 2007) - total 94%
We had a fantastic time in Thailand. Your villa was the perfect base for our family to get to the pier and the beach. The staff was everything and more that anyone could expect. You are fortunate to have them.
It was great to put a face to your name, and we would certainly stay again and hope to in the not too distant future.
your house is beautiful and very well equipped

Thank you for letting us rent your villa. We all had a fantastic time over the 6 days. May is a brilliant housekeeper and cook and the other staff are great as well. We will definitely return if coming back to Phuket which we hope to do.
it was absolutely brilliant!
sandra (august) (August 25th, 2006) - total 96%
What can I say it was without question one of the best holidays we've been on (and we've been on quite a few!). It was absolutely brilliant! It was perfectly chilled and stress-free. Just what we needed.
We have no complaints or suggestions to make it better - we just had such a great time that we didn't want to come back.
the villa is gorgeous
narelle (singapore) (May 5th, 2006) - total 92%
We had a fantastic time, the villa is gorgeous and Mai and the girls were absolutely brilliant, you're definitely onto a winner there with them. Mai's cooking was magnificent.
I can't think of anything to suggest to improve it, it all worked so smoothly. Thank you for having us.

Just a quick note to let you know the holiday was a great success. You have an absolutely fantastic villa there and the girls were great. Thanks for all your help in the organizing Brian and I will hopefully speak to you again soon with regards to my next trip.
Many thanks.
