Each of the 4 Guu Villas have their own separate parking areas at the front entrance to the property (located on the east side / mountainside of the development).

Once entering through the individual property gate from the privately-owned access road, there is ample parking for motor vehicles and motorcycles.

The design concept of The Guu Villas was to create a modern, tropical residence of ‘adaptable & useable living space’. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors & windows not only allow each room an abundance of natural light but extend onto the back living spaces and further highlight the expansive sunset sea view, while always letting in fresh air to every level of the home.

As you enter the main living section of each villa, guests enjoy a spacious living room with a large TV & upholstered sofa. This space transitions to an open-planned design encompassing a modern kitchen & dining area, with each room furnished in tailor-made pieces imported from Bali & Java, Indonesia. The exterior perimeter of each villa is lined with 2,800mm high glass doors allowing direct access to the garden, sala/gazebo, and private swimming pool.

The villas offer 5 different living areas: living room, pool side sala, first floor terrace & dining area and the 70m2 rooftop lounge space with uninterrupted sunset views towards famous Phi Phi Island.

Custom cabinets with stone benchtops will complete the fully functional kitchen. A large refrigerator recess, stove & oven, dishwasher-capable, pantry, and built-in microwave nook allow for all your culinary comforts. Also included in the air-conditioned kitchen & dining room is a 2m long island and breakfast bench leading towards the comfortable 6-seater dining table (table & chairs all made of high-quality teak wood sourced in Java, Indonesia by the villa designer ~ Studio Thé).

Villa Chang-Guu & Ling-Guu each have a set of 2 king-sized bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms (including showers, stone benchtops & double vanity sinks) placed on the ground floor & first floor. These air-conditioned bedroom retreats have built-in robes with plenty of clothing and storage space. The tall aluminum sliding glass doors enable easy entry to the outside living spaces.

The first floor Master Suite enjoys direct access to the work-from-home office, over-sized terrace and sea view.

Bedroom #2 on the ground floor has direct access to the Balinese swimming pool (6m x 3m), poolside sala and the rear garden.

Villa Kung-Guu is our largest villa (sleeps 8) with a set of 3 king-sized bedrooms all including ensuite bathrooms. The 3rd bedroom is a self-contained pavilion next to the swimming pool with a king-sized + bunk-bed, ideal for a family of 4.

Each of the king-sized bedrooms have a tastefully appointed ensuite bathroom which features artisan tiles, double-vanity stone benchtops and quality western fixtures & fittings. In addition to these bathrooms, there is an additional communal WC located on the ground floor and a poolside shower in the rear courtyard.

Continuing the modern functionality of these new villas, the designer has included a work-from-home space in each property.

Villa Chang-Guu has a self-enclosed office at the top of the floating staircase to the first floor. The office has a built-in 3m long timber desk, fitted with fast WiFi, electrical power points, air-conditioning and window views to the terrace, allowing this section of the villa as a quiet shared workspace for 2 people.

Villa Ling-Guu & Villa Kung-Guu have ample office / desk space in the upstairs Master Bedroom suites.

Note: The rooftop, living room and pool-side sala also offer comfortable working spaces.

Space! Each of The Guu Villas offer an abundance of liveable space within their own private sanctuary ~ including an over-sized outdoor terrace & rooftop retreat designed for entertaining.

The first-floor terrace (66m2) is accessed via the master suite & from the work-from-home office at the top of the stairs. This terrace includes outdoor furniture designed to specifically suit the open sundeck, which includes generous poly-rattan sofas and a teak-wood dining table, tucked undercover from the natural elements.

The 70m2 rooftop retreat on Villa Chang-Guu is likely one of the most popular spaces (second only perhaps to the Balinese swimming pools) as it boasts sunset sea views towards famous Phi Phi island, including Koh Lanta’s favorite Long Beach. The rooftop has room for a lush garden, pool table, hammocks & bean-bags (ideal for lazy afternoons & shared evenings!)

Placed in the rear garden next to the villas and the Balinese swimming pool is a sala/gazebo ideal for outdoor dining, BBQs, swinging hammocks or creative lounge space. The free-standing 3m x 3m structure provides additional shade-cover and an extra spot to entertain family and friends.

Each of the Guu Villas has room for its own laundry / storage located on the ground floor level with additional pantry stowing space. This room allows the potential for a washing machine recess, plenty of shelving and is conveniently placed close to the kitchen and king-sized master bedrooms.

Laundry service is provided to all rental guests by our lovely staff. Please speak to our team upon check-in for more information about laundry & villa cleaning services.

Finished with traditional green sukabumi tiles from Bali, Indonesia, the pleasantly sized 6m long by 3m wide swimming pools feature plenty of room for sunbeds and entertaining. Each villa has its own swimming pool, and with a depths from 1.20m-1.80m, the private pools are the perfect place to cool down on warm tropical afternoons.

Villa Chang-Guu, Ling-Guu and Kung-Guu are situated on individual land plots of approximately 360m2 and have a manicured front garden area integrated with parking spaces and a large 200m2 rear garden including the swimming pool & sala/gazebo. Villa Wong-Guu sits on a larger 400m2 property with a central garden surrounded by 3 separate living areas. Thick, natural fencing of bamboo and palm trees wrap the perimeter of each villa in traditional Balinese fashion, whereby the boundary ties into the green vegetation as much as possible, allowing a truly unique outdoor paradise!

With 9 beaches lining the popular west coast of Koh Lanta, there are certainly no shortage of sandy swimming spots to spend your days and evenings. The closest and most popular beach on the island, Phra Ae / Long Beach is only a 5-minute walk from The Guu Villas. With the local beach stretching approximately 5km long, the Guu development is located at the southernmost tip of the Long Beach area, which is known for its bamboo beach bars, lazy hammock-filled restaurants, volleyball nets and nightly sunset entertainment!

Long Beach is a well-known family friendly area that is populated with numerous gyms (inc. Muay Thai), laundry facilities, convenience stores, tourist shops, art galleries, bookshops, western restaurants, and trendy themed bars with local and foreign owners.

Just south of Long Beach, and also a 5-minute walk / 2-minute drive is Relax Beach (highly recommended by The Guu Villas!)
