Praana Residence

Praana Residence is the crown jewel with unobstructed views of the sea

One of Koh Samui’s finest private luxury retreats, Praana Residence is a stunning 6-bedroom villa with panoramic sea views. This is the jewel in the crown of the Panacea Retreat and rightly so because it is packed with delights, surprises, and recreational facilities galore including its own private kids’ club, games room, private cinema, well-equipped gym, and sauna. Entering via stepping stones over a koi pond, you’ll pass tall Buddha statues peering down from recesses in the stone clad wall. 

A stylish, two-storey central building takes centre stage at Praana. The upper level houses a vast, glass walled lounge and dining area, with carefully placed contemporary artwork adding style and elegance to the interior. A glass chandelier cascades from the wooden ceiling, and the whole room looks out on a backdrop of breathtaking seascapes and tropical forest. 


Each of the three master bedrooms occupies a standalone pavilion; two at the front of the property overlooking the pool and garden, the other at the rear. All are blessed with dramatic, unobstructed sea and island views from their king-size beds. Each flows seamlessly into an ensuite bathroom with a glass-walled rain shower room.  All three come with a private rooftop garden with a terrazzo bathtub and private terrace, while one has the additional luxury of a private 12-metre pool. All of the rooms slide open onto a wide terrace that looks over the garden and the enticing 25-metre infinity pool, which  overflows into the views.

The gym has an outstanding range of equipment such as rowing machines, cycling machines, running machines, Stairmasters, weights, and more. Your kids will enjoy hours of fun in the playroom; you’ll find a games room with a pool table, a cinema with 10 La-Z-Boy chairs, a private tennis court, and even a Muay Thai boxing ring. After your workout, soothe your aching muscles in the sauna or enjoy a pampering body treatment in the dedicated spa room (from expert therapists at extra cost). With so many spaces and activities to enjoy, and a full team of dedicated staff on hand to cater to all your needs, this villa is definitely a very special place for a party or celebration.
