Private Beachfront Family Villa in Koh Samui

Two adults with one or two children

The whole of Mandarin Beach Villa is yours: all six suites, the 20-metre infinity pool with its shallow entry, the gardens, the beachfront and the six-person team cook, clean and drive for your family alone. The price is one whole-villa price for your dates, the same for two guests or sixteen, so a small family pays for the estate, not per person.

• Sleeping: parents travelling with young children can choose Bedroom 1, 2 or 5 and arrange professional roll-out beds in their room. For babies, professional cots and baby-monitoring equipment are available in every bedroom. Families who prefer separate sleeping spaces can discuss the twin suite or Family King Bunk Suite with the villa team.
• What makes it work: the chef cooks every meal (a continental breakfast is free of charge on every stay), housekeeping is daily, airport transfers and the self-drive SUV are included, and nursery equipment is set up before arrival if you need it.
• See: every bedroom, photographed. Check: availability and the exact price for two adults and two children.

Four adults with two children

Four adults might be two couples, four friends, or parents with grandparents; each case suits a different set of beds, and Mandarin Beach Villa’s six equal-standard suites cover all of them without anyone taking a lesser room.

• Sleeping: two couples take the two Private Garden Pavilion Suites (Bedrooms 1 and 2, Super King beds, each in its own pavilion within the grounds); four adults who want separate beds use Bedroom 4, the twin suite with two King-size beds, as well; the two children share Bedroom 6, the Family King Bunk Suite at the rear of the house on the ground floor, overlooking the front garden, or take a suite each; young children can instead sleep on professional roll-out beds in their parents’ room in Bedroom 1, 2 or 5. If the four adults are parents with grandparents, see parents, grandparents and children.
• What makes it work: every suite is en-suite and equal-standard, meals are cooked and served for the whole party at once, and the included SUV and transfers mean nobody organises transport.

Parents, grandparents and children

Mandarin Beach Villa is designed for three generations under one roof: five of the six suites are on one flat, step-free ground floor, on the same level as the dining room, the pool, the gardens and the beach, so grandparents never climb stairs to join the family. Grandparents count as adults within the 12-adult, 16-guest capacity.

• Sleeping: a three-generation family typically uses four or five of the six suites — grandparents in a ground-floor suite such as Bedroom 3, parents in Bedroom 1, 2 or 5 with young children on professional roll-out beds in their room, or a baby in a professional cot with baby-monitoring equipment (available in every bedroom), and older children sharing Bedroom 4, the twin suite, or Bedroom 6, the Family King Bunk Suite at the rear of the house on the ground floor, close to Bedroom 5 upstairs.
• What makes it work: meals at the villa at the family’s own pace, shaded places to relax by the pool and on the beachfront, the included VIP airport transfers and SUV, and a team of six on the estate every day.
• See: the multi-generational villa page and what is verified about step-free access. Check: availability and the exact price for four adults and three children.

Two families sharing the villa

Two families sharing Mandarin Beach Villa typically split the six suites evenly — three each. Because every suite is equal-standard, neither family takes the inferior rooms, which is the hardest part of sharing most villas.

• Sleeping: each family keeps its own private en-suite sleeping space — for example one family in Bedrooms 1, 3 and 6 and the other in Bedrooms 2, 4 and 5; children share Bedroom 4 (two King-size beds) or Bedroom 6 (the King bunk, at the rear of the house on the ground floor), and parents take the pavilions or Bedroom 5 upstairs; young children can sleep on professional roll-out beds in their parents’ room in Bedroom 1, 2 or 5, and a professional cot with baby-monitoring equipment can be prepared in any bedroom.
• What makes it work: shared meals from one chef, the pool, the gardens and the beachfront bring both families together, while separate suites and the Private Garden Pavilions give each family somewhere to retreat.
• See: the family layout and room-planning guide. Check: availability and the exact price for four adults and four children, then create a shareable family page from your quote to send the proposed stay to the other family.

Three families or an extended-family reunion

Mandarin Beach Villa hosts extended families in one private estate: verified Airbnb guests have stayed as parties of ten adults and six children, nine adults and five children, and twelve adults and four children. Six equal suites, eight bathrooms and a team of six keep a large family comfortable rather than crowded.

• Sleeping: three families usually take two suites each; six couples fill six suites. Children share Bedroom 4, the twin suite, and Bedroom 6, the Family King Bunk Suite; six professional roll-out beds are available for young children in Bedrooms 1, 2 and 5, so they sleep in their parents’ room, within the 16-guest total (there are no sofa beds). The villa team plans the exact allocation with you before arrival.
• What makes it work: one price for the whole villa shared between households, long lunches and dinners cooked for everyone, the beachfront and pool for the group, and private suites for each household. Family celebrations shared by the resident family are welcome; Mandarin Beach Villa is not a wedding or commercial event venue.
• See: family celebrations at the villa and the verified family evidence guide. Check: availability and the exact price for ten adults and six children, and share the quote with every household from the family page.

Families travelling with babies or toddlers

Mandarin Beach Villa owns and keeps its nursery equipment at the estate — cots, cribs, toddler beds, high chairs, playpens, prams, baby baths, baby monitors, sterilisers and ISOFIX car seats — and sets it up before you arrive, so you travel light and the routine starts on day one.

• Sleeping: professional cots and baby-monitoring equipment are available for use in all six bedrooms and can be prepared before your arrival, so a baby sleeps in the parents’ suite; toddlers and young children sleep on professional roll-out beds in their parents’ room in Bedroom 1, 2 or 5. The ground-floor suites open onto the gardens, so daytime naps and early nights are easy to manage.
• What makes it work: the chef cooks children’s meals to your routine, the pool has a shallow entry, a glass fence separates the enclosed grounds from the open beach (the pool is not separately fenced, so adult supervision remains essential), and housekeeping is daily.
• See: the villa for babies and toddlers. Check: availability and the exact price for two adults, one child and one infant — infants are registered guests and count within the 16.

Teenagers and younger children together

Mandarin Beach Villa gives teenagers independence inside a family holiday: a suite of their own, the villa-owned water sports, the sala cinema and the games consoles, with the rest of the family a short walk away for meals.

• Sleeping: parents take a ground-floor suite near the younger children; teenagers take Bedroom 5, the upstairs suite with its balcony over the palms to the sea, or a Private Garden Pavilion Suite set in its own pavilion within the grounds.
• What makes it work: two villa-owned Sea-Doo jet skis, a Hobie Cat catamaran, kayaks and paddleboards (used with supervision, subject to weather, tide, age, licence and the villa team’s safety assessment), ten mountain bikes with helmets, the 4K outdoor cinema in the sala with a 180 cm screen, PlayStation 5, Xbox and Nintendo Switch, and 475 Mbps fibre Wi-Fi — while younger children keep their routine with the nursery equipment and the shallow-entry pool.
• See: the villa for teenagers. Check: availability and the exact price for two adults and three children.

Larger groups: eight adults and four children

Verified Airbnb guests have stayed at Mandarin Beach Villa as a party of eight adults and four children. Twelve registered guests fill the six suites comfortably, with every couple in an en-suite suite of equal standard.

• Sleeping (one arrangement the verified beds support): four couples in Bedrooms 1, 2, 3 and 5; the four children across Bedroom 4, the twin suite with two King-size beds, and Bedroom 6, the Family King Bunk Suite with two King mattresses, at the rear of the house on the ground floor. The villa team confirms the allocation with you before arrival.
• What makes it work: eight bathrooms, the chef cooking for twelve at once, the beachfront fleet and the 20-metre pool for the whole group, and a team of six on the estate every day.
• See: the verified bed configuration. Check: availability and the exact price for eight adults and four children.

Parties approaching the published capacity

Mandarin Beach Villa sleeps up to 16 guests in total when booked direct, including up to 12 adults; children and infants count within the 16. Verified Airbnb guests have stayed as twelve adults and four children.

• Sleeping: twelve adults take the six suites as six couples — Bedroom 4, the twin suite, suits two adults who prefer separate beds, and Bedroom 6, the Family King Bunk Suite, takes adults as well as children; up to four young children then sleep on professional roll-out beds in their parents’ rooms in Bedrooms 1, 2 and 5, within the 16-guest total. The villa team plans every bed with you before arrival.
• What makes it work: the booking page checks the party against the same capacity as the villa team, so a quote is only shown for a party the villa can take; the price stays one whole-villa price for the dates.
• See: what is included for every guest. Check: availability and the exact price for twelve adults and four children.

Families bringing their own nanny

Yes, you can bring your own nanny. Mandarin Beach Villa has a separate staff/nanny room available on request at no additional charge, allowing your accompanying nanny or personal staff to stay without using one of the six guest suites. It is one bedroom with a toilet, within the estate, for travelling nannies and assistants only — not for guests’ use.

• Sleeping: your family keeps the six guest suites; your nanny or personal staff stay in the separate staff/nanny room. Tell the villa team when you book so the room is prepared, and the team will confirm how your nanny is registered for the stay.
• What makes it work: the chef, housekeepers, concierge and driver already take care of the estate, so your nanny can concentrate on the children; the enclosed grounds, the shallow-entry pool and the nursery equipment make their day easier too.
• See: the staff/nanny room on the bedrooms page. Check: availability and the exact price for your family, and mention your nanny in your booking.

Guests who prefer ground-floor bedrooms

Five of Mandarin Beach Villa’s six suites — Bedrooms 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 — are ground-floor and step-free, on the same flat level as the living and dining spaces, the pool, the gardens and the beach. Bedroom 5 is the one upstairs suite, reached by internal stairs.

• Sleeping: guests who prefer no stairs take any of the five ground-floor suites; the family member who wants a view and a bath takes Bedroom 5 upstairs. Mandarin Beach Villa does not claim formal wheelchair accessibility; where a specific mobility requirement matters, confirm it with the villa team before booking.
• What makes it work: bedroom, dining room, pool and beach on one level, meals at the villa, shaded loungers on the beachfront, and the included transfers and SUV for outings.
• See: what is verified about step-free access, stated exactly. Check: availability and the exact price for your dates.

Choosing between The Residence and All-Inclusive, with flexible dates or a budget

Both packages include the whole estate, the six-person team, the chef’s cooking, a free continental breakfast, the airport transfers, the self-drive SUV and the villa-owned fleet. Choose The Residence when you prefer to pay for food and drink at actual receipted cost with no villa markup; choose All-Inclusive when you want all meals, soft drinks, airport fast-track, in-stay transport with the chauffeured van, fuel, a massage for every adult and a private fire-show evening arranged in advance.

• Flexible dates: the open dates and direct price are read from the live calendar, and when your first-choice dates are taken, the booking page suggests the nearest open dates for the same stay.
• Budget: the nightly rate by month shows The Residence for the whole villa in pounds sterling (GBP); the exact total for any dates and package is on the booking page, with interest-free payment plans over 3 to 12 months. The price is for the whole villa, so a larger family shares it between households.
• See: The Residence and All-Inclusive compared. Check: availability and the exact price, then create a shareable family page from your quote so every household sees the same dates, plan and price.
