The boat, in detail
- 24-foot leisure and fishing boat — villa-owned and insured, part of the Mandarin Adventure Collection, never rental equipment
- 250 HP Mercury engine — comfortable cruising range along Koh Samui’s calm west coast
- Garmin GPS fish finder — find the marks, and let the children watch the sonar do its magic
- Full stereo with Bluetooth — every family sunset cruise gets its own soundtrack
- Leather seating — finished for comfort, not bare-bones fishing utility
- Six fishing rods with tackle boxes — enough for a whole family to fish at once
What a boat changes about a family holiday
Lipa Noi’s calm, sunset-facing water is the reason the villa’s watersports fleet lives here — and a boat completes it. Mornings become family fishing trips, guided by the fish finder and six rods rigged from the villa’s own tackle boxes. Afternoons become swimming stops in open water. Evenings become the west coast’s famous sunset seen from the sea with the stereo playing — the same sunset the beach watches, from the water’s side.
Because the boat is villa-owned, it works the way the whole estate works: no rental counters, no third-party operators, no queueing for a charter. It is launched from the villa’s own beach and arranged with the villa team around your family’s day — the same way the jet skis, catamaran and kayaks already work.
Booked months before you land — never after you arrive. Every trip — fishing mornings, swimming stops, sunset cruises and days out to the Ang Thong National Marine Park, whose islands stand on the horizon in front of the villa — is planned and confirmed through the villa’s own guest portal months before your family arrives: dates held, boat prepared, crew briefed. Villas that leave trip bookings until after check-in leave families waiting on peak-week availability and hoping for the best; at Mandarin the schedule is locked before your flight leaves home. You arrive 100% booked, and nothing your family is looking forward to is left to chance.
Part of a fleet no rental brochure can match
- 24-foot leisure and fishing boat with 250 HP Mercury engine and Garmin GPS fish finder — new

Every craft is owned and insured by the villa — why that matters is explained in why private equipment beats rental shops, and the full fleet story lives in the Mandarin Adventure Collection.
Frequently asked questions
Does the villa really own the boat?
Yes — like the jet skis, catamaran and kayaks, the boat is the villa’s own, insured, and maintained by the villa team. It is not chartered or hired in.
How do boat trips work?
Trips are arranged with the villa team during your stay and launched from the private beach in front of the villa — fishing mornings, swimming stops and sunset cruises are the favourites.
Is fishing equipment provided?
Yes — six fishing rods with tackle boxes are kept at the villa, and the boat’s Garmin GPS fish finder helps find the marks on the calm west-coast waters.
Is this included in the villa’s all-inclusive approach?
The boat is part of the villa’s own Adventure Collection — not third-party rental. Ask the villa team when planning your stay and they will arrange trips around your family’s days.
