Vacation rentals with a pool in Ko Tarutao

One of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in! This place is an absolute gem – nestled right in the middle of peaceful rice fields, it offers a truly unique and serene experience. The house itself is beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Waking up to the sound of nature and the view of endless green fields was magical. Communication with the host was flawless from start to finish – incredibly friendly, responsive, and thoughtful. We felt truly welcomed and taken care of throughout our stay. We’ve stayed in many Airbnbs over the years, but this one stands out as one of the very best. We would return in a heartbeat – highly, highly recommended!

This was an excellent stay! The villa is just lovely. Unfortunately because it was the end of ramadan there were fireworks going off until late at night. If you value your sleep I would not stay here for the very end of ramadan. However the roosters that people reported were not close by or not very big... either way the rooster noise was not a problem at all. We heard them, but not enough to keep you awake. Another thing to notice is that the bathrooms are not renovated but they are much cleaner and better than what the photos show. I was worried that the bathrooms would be yucky, but they were just fine. Floors were very clean. Cleaning service is available and the staff were flexible about the timing and really lovely. There is a lot of cheap food available in the surrounding streets - more on street stalls than in actual restaurants - though not much open for lunch during ramadan. Scarborough restaurant is nearby and was open for lunch in Ramadan, and it was great.

Peaceful & spacious, beautiful views with good sized pool: - enjoyed location away from main tourist area - bedrooms roomy with large ensuites - kitchen had adequate utensils - loved saltwater infinity pool with stunning outlook - Ria, the host, was helpful before & during our stay in sharing information & dealing with a couple of issues - check-in: took about 30mins. Ria explained house rules eg. don't leave air conditioning on, no toilet paper down loo; offered to book activities & hire out home helper. We didn't use these services. She invited us to welcome drinks at her house, we were too tired to do this. - floors & outdoor tiling: slippy. Had to sign a waiver releasing liability for injury - driveway: whilst complying with local building regulations, is extremely steep with tight bends & no corner mirrors. It's shared with other users. Found it challenging & felt concerned about meeting other vehicles - outdoor lights on next door house shine all night into ground floor bedrooms

A beautiful Malaysian villa within well established gardens.seeing sunbirds flitting between the flowers and a tribe of curious monkeys wandering around the gardens added to the experience. The host was very friendly and approachable and gave us a wealth of information relating to things to do and places to eat and drink. Will hopefully return one day.

Very friendly housekeeper. Was always there to help us out. The house has a beautiful view over the paddy fields the cows up to the mountains. The pool is shared with some other villas but we were all alone in the pool the whole time. The kitchen is well equipped. One more pot would have been nice. Nice place to stay.

The villa is set in a stunning rural setting in the midst of paddy fields & lost in nature. It was such a unique experience, we hardly moved during our six day stay, apart from lazy country walks & cooling off in the sweet infinity pool. Day 1 we did a grocery shop run to BHK DUTY FREE nearby where you can get most items (but not meat or fresh fish, only chicken) and even alcohol with a reasonable selection of wines & spirits. Azary was very responsive to any issues we had, which were few. (NB Azary: it might be a good idea to include written instructions as to how the hob works as we couldn’t figure it out!). Also the stairs to the bedroom are quite treacherous & could benefit greatly by adding a handrail. But this minor drawback does not warrant our review being knocked down a point. Altogether a 5* experience and goes straight into my Top Five of all-time world Favourite Places to Stay which is praise indeed as my husband & I have visited 124 countries so far!

Beautiful and clean villa! We had a lovely stay.

marco is great host, allowed us to check in early and the place is clean and have all the amenities needed. great place to stay

Coming from China on our way to Europe we spent more than a at Jacq’s place and loved it so much we even extended a few days. The apartment is so cosy you feel at home immediately and it was clean and comfortable with everything you need. The whole apartment complex is quiet, there are hardly other tourists and the swimming pool we almost had to ourselves. Also the housekeeper was fantastic and such a luxury. Both were super responsive if we had questions and we got tons of good recommendations. The whole island is very laid back, beautiful sunsets and not super busy, which was nice with great food all around. I would recommend to everyone to stay here if you can.
