Kerem Villas

Nestled in the Plai Laem area of Koh Samui, Kerem Villas is a private villa resort that combines thoughtful design with warm, hands-on service. The property accommodates guests in a beautifully styled villa configured across three bedrooms, with the flexibility to expand to four, making it well-suited for families, groups, or couples seeking a more exclusive retreat than a standard hotel can offer. The architecture and interior design have drawn consistent praise from guests, with attention to detail evident throughout the space. What sets Kerem Villas apart is the quality of its team. Villa host Jane and breakfast chef Joy are frequently highlighted by guests for going beyond expectations — preparing fresh, high-quality breakfasts each morning and assisting with restaurant recommendations and activity planning throughout the stay. The villa itself is noted for being exceptionally clean and well-equipped, offering a comfortable base for exploring the island. Kerem Villas also functions as an event and wedding venue, making it a practical choice for those looking to combine a celebration with a stay. As a small private property, availability is limited, so booking well in advance is strongly recommended, particularly during peak season between December and April. Prospective guests should visit the official website at keremvillas.com to check availability and current rates before planning their trip.

Visitor Reviews
The stay here couldn't have been any better than this. Absolutely wonderful! The villa has great styling and facilities. The architecture, interior design and equipment were delightful, to the smallest of details - everything was super fine and thoughtful. I'd give the staff (Ong, Jean, and everyone else) and the services they offered a 6-star rating if I could. A yummy breakfast they prepare in the villa's kitchen, cleaning, and a lot more. They even helped us buying flowers to our wives :) We enjoyed Thailand very much, and Kerem Villa the most. Thank you.
We had the best four night stay at these villas. The team took care of us so well and really made the start of our holiday so special. The villa itself is fabulous, super clean and very well equipped. Location is perfect and very private. The infinity pool overlooking the sea (no beach) is incredible. We especially appreciated breakfast being prepared for us in the villa each morning. We have been horoughly spoilt. Thank you. 🙏🏻
Really had an amazing time with my family at Kerem villas. The hospitality is fantastic, the team really goes the extra mile to make sure we have enjoy our stay at their villa. They assisted us with reservations at too resturants and tours. Daily private chef breakfast, waking up to the smell of croissants is mouth watering. Highly recommended!

Tips for Visiting Hotels & Resorts
Book Shoulder Season

Compare OTAs and Direct Rates
Always check the hotel's own website after finding a rate on Agoda or Booking.com. Many Thai properties offer a best-rate guarantee or throw in perks like free breakfast when you book direct.
Pool Villa Doesn't Mean Expensive
Private pool villas in Krabi, Hua Hin, and Chiang Mai start around 2,500–4,000 THB/night — a fraction of Bali or Maldives prices. Search specifically for 'pool villa' to surface hidden gems.
