Koh Jum Beach Villas feels like a place untouched by the world’s worries. Set on a quiet and picturesque beachfront overlooking Koh Phi Phi, you’ll feel miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city and find yourself immersing in the tranquil and serene ambiance that permeates every corner of the resort. The owners dreamed up the sustainable luxury villas before there was even electricity or paved roads on the island. The villas offer five star hospitality, but with a natural rustic, barefoot luxury touch that invites the guest to make themselves right at home. We instantly settled in our two bedroom pool villa, featuring stylish indoor and outdoor spaces that merged seamlessly into the lush green landscape. The kids were overjoyed to be steps from the beach and spent days going from swimming and splashing to sand castle building and shell collecting. Our large villa had plenty of space for a family and even featured a fully equipped kitchen if you felt like cooking during your stay. Whether you are looking to relax in the privacy of your accommodation or lounge by the main pool and kayak along the shore there will be an activity for you. The culinary delights were a true highlight during our stay and we were thoroughly impressed with the organic garden, fresh line caught fish, and elegant bar and restaurant constructed from reclaimed wood. You are only a quick local taxi ride from the main village and pier making Koh Jum Beach Villas accessible yet secluded. The staff are always on hand to help with any requests but allow you plenty of privacy to enjoy your time in paradise. An idyllic choice if you are looking to see another side of Thailand’s tropical beaches. Somewhere untouched by mass tour groups but still boasts world class luxury and service.
