With sparkling views over the Andaman Sea from your balcony, this sleek apartment sits on a hilltop resort overlooking Patong Bay. A picture of blissful serenity 2.5 kilometres away, there's no reason not to go to Patong Beach on one of the free shuttle buses provided – by night, the neon-lit Bangla Road delivers unforgettable nightlife. A twelve-minute drive from this mountainside village, the Jungceylon Shopping Centre even holds a cinema and trampoline park. Feel a warm welcome as you sip your complimentary drink in this warm-wooded living space. We love that these sliding doors open directly onto your private plunge pool, perfect for dipping your toes in as you marvel at a dreamy sunset. When you fancy exploring the resort, perhaps you'll play a round of mini golf or visit the games room. Making friends is easy while sunbathing after an authentic Thai massage in the spa here. How about keeping fit in the on-site gym before enjoying cocktails at the rooftop bar?
