Villa Riva

I had the joy of experiencing this incredible home with my family and dear friends, and it truly felt like a home away from home. The environment was special, welcoming, and filled with warmth. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles and unforgettable hospitality. The house itself, the food, and the exceptional service all exceeded our expectations. Cherry and her staff went above and beyond every single day — their attention to detail and genuine care left a lasting impression on all of us. We especially loved spending time on the tennis court, relaxing by the pool, and indulging in the delicious meals. Every moment felt intentional, thoughtful, and joyful. We are deeply grateful, and this home has left a mark on our hearts. We will absolutely be back!

We hosted fourteen friends from Australia, the US, and Europe for a week-long birthday celebration and it did not disappoint. Cherrie and her team were phenomenal—they handled everything perfectly. The food was incredible with amazing variety and dietary accommodations. The property was epic with excellently appointed communal spaces inside and outside, comfortable beds, bathrooms around every corner, a gym, and Bluetooth speakers for poolside music. They even arranged a Full Moon party with our hired DJ. Walking distance to beach bars and shops. We took full advantage of the pool, hot tub, pool table, and played games at the huge outdoor table. Truly memorable—wouldn't change a thing. Can't wait to go back!

The house is magnificently sited and is superb both inside and out. The wealth of superb ornaments, furnishings and decoration imbues a feeling of luxury quite out of the ordinary and the pool, tennis court, cinema, etc. provide everything that could be wanted for a great holiday. The crowning achievement, however, has to be the staff for whom nothing is too much trouble. Their kindness and willingness to help in every way will remain a lasting memory. We are already making arrangements for a return next year. One word of warning; whilst lovely to look at the outside decking can be very slippery when wet although the manager informs us that steps are already being taken to revarnish the decking in non-slip varnish. I tiny flaw that in no way detracted from a wonderful holiday.

It was beyond my expectations!! The top view above the little hill where the villa was located was really stunning. It was like that ocean was mine. I could feel the moment of calm and peacefulness while staying there. Not only the extraordinary scenery from the place but also the contemporary style of this villa gave me a fabulous atmosphere and stay. The villa was clean and well-managed. There were many room types with different sizes. Each room was well-functional that suits with kids, couple or family. They have provided all of the facilities that you may have expected from 5-star hotels. The staffs were friendly and had good serviced-mind. Everything is truly fantastic. (10/10) It is the place that worth for your holidays.

Amazing staff at an amazing location! For the last 7 years my friends and I have traveled all over the world for NYE and this by far has been our best experience. Cherry and her staff are amazing! They took care of our every need. Nothing was left undone. 5 stars! Thank you Cherry and Villa Riva!

To find words to describe this place is extremely difficult but I’ll try. I stayed in this Palace by the sea with friends for 4 nights and it was the most enthralling experience I’ve ever felt staying in a resort and I have been to many. Upon entry you’ll immediately be captivated by the magnificent architecture of modern contemporary high ceilings fused with traditional Thai accents surrounded by 270 degree views of the ocean was simply breathtaking. Each bedroom is elegantly decorated with beautiful wood carvings and has a unique view of the garden and ocean. The magnificent infinity pool surrounded by a cabana and outdoor dining area is perfect for a pool party. Cherry and her staff were absolutely terrific to attend to all our needs. The in house Chef would put many top notch Restaurants to shame with his extraordinary Thai and Western cuisine. For those of you who are very discerning on where and how you spend your well deserved time time with family or friends in ultimate luxury, Villa Riva will very likely surpass even your highest expectations.
