We stayed at this beautiful villa for 5 days during our wedding. There were 10 of us - 2 families and the bridesmaids across 4 villas. The villa staff - Khun Rose and Khun Pooh - are exceptionally warm, and go out of their way to take care of your needs. We had the wedding at the villa and spent the other few days relaxing with family.
Villa has a beautiful pool, the beach is rocky and has the view of lipa noi pier - it can get a little noisy but we really only noticed it a couple times. The beach itself is very clean. Neighbouring villas all seem respectful of the shared beach area.
The villa is equipped with yoga mats, shared paddle board with other villa, kayaks and a few pool toys. The lawn is magnificently kept.
The staff are great with healthy options and can cater to any of your dietary needs Including home made almond milk! The food is spectacular, generous and reasonably priced. There is almost no reason to leave the villa.
There is a massive dining table to accommodate large numbers, and the breakfast table is a great place to congregate.
Some guests had minor issues with hot water on the first night but the staff quickly resolved this. The facilities were absolutely beautifully kept, and the decor amongst the most tasteful we saw in Samui - and we checked many villas!
The villa itself is far from most restaurants and activity in Samui so it's good if you're looking to stay in one place.
Even though we had some rain during our wedding it was left unspoilt by the amazing villa setting and the people involved in making it special.
We would definitely return to Ban Kilee for future holidays...!

Dear Xinmei, many thanks for taking time to review your stay. Without such reviews we are unable to ensure we are top of our game. We are working very hard to develop a wellness and fitness offering at Baan Kilee - and our staff can produce Keffir, Kombucha and Almond Milk as you experienced. They will also buy organics and hydroponics as required and can offer a sugar free menu, with plenty of Gluten and Dairy Free alternatives. We love the quiet environment in Lipa Noi, and glad to see there are a few local eateries from which to chose if one does want to leave the villa - but no pumping night clubs too nearby! Please write to me for your return guest discount if you would like to return. bookings@chaitalay.com
