Pattie, Olay and Sugar were brilliant at the villa and made our holiday truly fantastic.
Blue View (2) was beautiful. Lovely pool, great staff, comfy rooms, good amenities including a spa room to order in massages. We particularly liked the open plan kitchen, seating and pool area and spent most of our time there. If you've never done a staff villa before, you're in for a treat. We had breakfast and lunch every day, with half of our evening meals in the villa and half at local restaurants. Patti was an amazing cook and we ate feasts every day! As previously mentioned, she took the gluten free food needs really seriously and we had zero worries.
Word of warning, Blue View villa (there are 2 and number 2 is the more modern) is high up on a steep hill and you can only access via car. Not an issue because Sugar was always available to assist. Instead of booking local taxis, we would book Sugar to take us out. We loved the Fisherman's village area and visited a wide range a lovely restaurants across Koh Samui. Our excursion highlight was a morning at the elephant sanctuary feeding and washing elephants. Tip- take a change of clothes and an outfit that you're happy to get into the elephant bathing pool with!
