Details
Between three small rural villages, Gecko Villa nestles with its private swimming pool amongst the paddy fields, in Thailand's Isaan plateau. This stand alone, 3 bedroom getaway is exclusively yours during your stay, and is fully catered and serviced. It enjoys a privileged position upon its own grounds, comprising 20 hectares of gardens, orchards, woodlands, pastures and rice paddies. During your next holiday, why not rent Gecko Villa, make it your own house and enjoy the unique experience we offer, rather than restricting yourself to a hotel?
The house itself consists of several separate buildings set around a private garden and linked by wooden verandahs and decks. These also lead to the private swimming pool that is set into the deck at the same level. The house has a large air-conditioned master bedroom with a teak, king sized bed, en-suite, WC and sink, and adjoining garden shower. Its private verandah also boasts a hammock in which to laze under the fragrant frangipani flowers. The second air-conditioned and king-bedded bedroom enjoys views over the garden and swimming pool towards the rice fields, and has an en suite W.C. and shower. A third, fan-cooled king bedroom shares this bathroom with the second bedroom.
Whilst the Northeast of Thailand is the Kingdom's poorest area, it is reputed for its friendly and good-natured people, who are always ready to welcome those who make the effort to discover their home. Here, in the rural heartlands of Thailand (yet easily accessible by road, rail or air), relax amongst the emerald paddy fields, and savour the forgotten rhythms of country life. We take every measure to ensure that your stay is a memorable one. We offer you a rare opportunity to escape from the banality of impersonal hotel rooms, and to immerse yourself in this unspoiled & undiscovered region of Thailand. Choose tranquility and complete privacy, making this unique spacious Villa your own. Or allow us to show you the area, cook Thai food for you and introduce you to the ways of life here. Enjoy the luxury of your secluded retreat: an experience unique in the Kingdom!
