First of all I don't know how anyone can rate this Villa less than a 5/5. This villa is such bliss in the heart of Cheong mon with ultimate comfort and luxury- Conceptualised with such magnificence and beautiful in design, it is a dream come true holiday space in every sense of the word!
The hostess: extremely flexible, very magnanimous and accommodating - we had a pleasure dealing with Marie and she an absolute no-fuss hostess who responds immediately. So that experience for us was brilliant.
The airport transfers: comfortable van / absolutely on time/ great service/ very comfortable and helpful without having to remind
The villa: the grandeur of the space is what reaches to you first. The entirety with which each element binds itself to a unique concept around which the villa is designed is just gorgeous. It is luxury combined with a very usable home feel to it which makes it so so nice. The insides become the outsides and vice Versa to sync so beautifully. This villa felt like home in every sense of the word and each and every member of our family loved it completely. The vibe of the villa is so positive and fresh - it was definitely one of the BEST experiences we've had ever.
The service: so the USP of the villa is the staff that I am guessing Marie has so carefully selected.
There are 2 super efficient workers Aye and Jane. Aye handles the kitchen and the breaka and overall supervision while Jane handles the cleaning of the house. Let me say that they left no stone unturned to see that everything was prim and proper every single moment or day. From the breakfast being served out in perfection to the Cleaning or even running errands to the close by Market, they did the smallest of things with the biggest of smiles. I haven't seen staff so possessive and particular about a house they work for...... says a lot a out the owner.
Overall experience - the view from the breakfast table which reaches out to the hills far away, the comfort of the cuddling broad sofa seaters, the lovely pool which is perfect in size to just lounge in for hours, the comfort of the beds, the choice of pillow (one hard and the other soft) the bed linen, the towels etc everything was spot on perfect. I am a lil obsessed about these things so yes I do notice all of this and this villa ticks all the right boxes
Safety: whether early morning or late at night coz most nights we would get back post midnight, we never found the place or area unsafe. We never had a single untoward experience. There are screwed in lockers in each wardrobe and if that is not safe enough, the wardrobes can be locked too.
So nothing to worry
All in all, we've had one of the best holidays ever and the due credit is goes to villa Akasha, Marie and the staff and service-
The Vila makes you feel one with nature, free spirited and so so relaxed.

Great place to chill with friends and family. The high ceiling gives the place a nice airy feel. The kitchen equipment is top notch. The owners spent a decent amount to set this place up. If only the pool was bigger and the beach was closer. Other than that it is pretty good in terms of being close to chaweng beach and fishermen's village.

We have just come back from 2 weeks in this villa. There was some confusion with the pick up on arrival and with 4 kids after travelling for 10 hours this was very tough however after severals calls this was resolved relatively quickly. The villa is just like the pictures and is perfect if travelling with kids. the staff were friendly and helpful although english was very limited. The villa location is remote from the main town area but if you rent a car or motorbike this is not a problem. Close by there are some great Thai resturants and 7/11 shops for groceries. It says breakfast is included but this is basic cereal and fruits and pancakes so we bought our own food that the maids cooked for some variety. I would recommend this place and come back in the future.

We stayed three weeks in the villa. The villa is nice, slightly remote from the life of the island. The management and the owner are useless. We got robbed while there due to the total lack of security and we lost over 6,500 Euros in electronics and bags, cash etc. The thieves robbed everything in the living room but did not enter the rooms, in which we were sleeping. There was not even a break-in as due to the total lack of security of the villa, making it so easy for thieves to proceed. When we required a security guard after the robbery, as we were afraid for our physical safety, the manager and the owner of the villa required us first to pay for it. After negotiations, they finally accepted to pay for a security but it was too late, as the robbery had occurred. The villa does not have insurance and the owner/manager don't care about it. Actually, weirdly, they did not even inquire if something had been stolen from the villa's goods, which raised even more suspicion. This all ruined our vacation and we wish we would not have booked this villa. Don't go there.

Firstly the photos do not do the villa justice. It is amazing and there is so much space- far better than a hotel. The pool is great and also the outdoors area and it is really nice to be able to open the living room doors out on to the pool area. The beach isn't that far and only a 5 min walk away from the Villa.
Secondly Aya and Noi look after the villa on a day to day basis and are incredible and made us feel very comfortable. They really looked after us well. The keep the villa very clean and arranaged lots of things for us to do like massages, manicures, yoga and thai boxing tickets. Their cooking is second to none! Really the best Thai food we have ever had.
Aya was extra good to us as we had to take our baby to hospital and she came with us to help us. She also drove to the airport to give my husband his watch which he left in the villa. She went above and beyond what we expected.
We used Mr June to get around the island and Aya helped organise this. He was a very polite and safe driver and his car was very clean and fitted the whole family (6 adults and 1 baby).
This is beyond doubt the best place to go for a family holiday.

At first, I was hesitant to book a villa coz I don't know if it would have the same service like if I book a hotel, but then TJ from Holiday Villa Retreats gave me villa Akasha and prove me wrong, the service the facilities are much more than staying in a hotel, the staff are superb and rooms are amazing and I love the pool, me and my family enjoyed staying there, and I know you will too.
