Neighbouring villas in view
A modern, airy pool villa with sunrise views on tranquil Cape Yamu.
Abiente is a superb holiday villa for active, modern couples and groups of friends, with its chic styling and setting on Phuket’s east coast, on the doorstep of the region’s best sites for yachting, kayaking and other outdoor adventures. For those of us with less ambitious holiday plans, it’s also a fine place to do absolutely nothing but relax poolside and bask in the tropical sun! The open-plan layout invited us to gather, relax and flit between the cool white interior and the pool with ease. Each of the three bedrooms is similarly designed and furnished with king-size beds and TVs, though only two enjoy a sea view and poolside setting – so there might have to be a coin-toss on arrival. We were among the first to visit this newly built villa (mid-2017) and loved its bright and welcoming ambiance with a no-fuss minimalist edge and a few touches of whimsy here and there including a big mural splashed across the entry hall. Abiente is among the newer villas in Baan Yamu, a decade-old estate with exceptional guest facilities available including a well-equipped gym, which we didn’t try out (lazy!), and the huge 75-metre pool, a good option for serious swimmers.

Highlights
Villa Abiente’s setting in a lesser-travelled area of Phuket offered us the chance to enjoy the island’s local flavour. We loved watching the long-tail fishing boats glide through the bay off the nearby beach, which was free of tourists. And the sunrises are unforgettable!
Surprises
Neighbouring villas are in view from Abiente so it doesn’t feel like a complete hideaway, though it’s shielded enough to offer a reasonable level of privacy. Guests with young children will need to keep a close watch on them as there’s no safety fencing around the pool.
PROs
-
Peaceful Phuket east coast setting
-
Stylish 12m pool and sundeck
-
Wake early for tropical sunrises
-
Dedicated villa staff and chef

Modern ensuite poolside bedrooms
CONs

Open pool not ideal for youngsters

We are so happy we choose Villa Abiente fir our stay at Phuket. We enjoyed every day here. Kids were in love with the pool and also we, the adults always enjoyed the meals at home. It was always a very nice experience and definitely better than in restaurant.
Thank you to all of the staff. This stay at Phuket will be in our memories for a lifetime for all of our family.

We immediately fell in love with the villa the moment we arrived. Thank you so much for taking great care of us during our stay. We truly appreciate the warmth and care - the staff put in all the details. Special shout out to P'Kan and P'Da for helping us with getting local ingredients and preparing the home cooked meals. People say time flies in a flash when you're happy. Our stay at the villa was a short one. We look forward to returning to Phuket soon and enjoying an Elite Havens property perhaps during a longer stay.

Rooms were always tidy and comfortable. The most outstanding part of our stay was by far the food, it was delicious and such a large choice. Thank you to the 3 of you for putting up with our craziness and your amazing hospitality. We also loved our new guest. Hayden!

Ying is amazing that she can cook all kinds of nice and yummy dishes. I can swear that the best food I have in Phuket is what Ying cooked for us. This is not my first time staying in the villa that is run by Elite Havens group and their villas don't let you down at all. Always spacious and luxurious!

First of all, I would like to say thanks to Kob and Ying to give me such a great honeymoon beginning.
During my stay the food, the environment, the services, everything matches my requirement, especially the food I like it so much. Kob always keeps the house clean and tidy. After they know it is my honeymoon, they even set up a honeymoon room which I like it very much. Hope to see you next time.

We had the most wonderful time here at villa Abiente. The view, the food and the people made us feel so welcomed and at home. Wonderful memories made. Between the stunning views, gorgeous pool and beautiful grounds. The villa staff and chef ensure that our every need was catered to. From the authentic Thai food we enjoyed at home, to organizing little excursion for us (with a baby). This was definitely a holiday to remember. A big shout out to the staff who were most attentive and ensured all our needs were catered to. Also a positive experience.from the time we confirmed our reservation to the moment we left the villa. Thank you!
