Built in 2024 as a personal home rather than a standard rental property, Villa Stella Marina combines solid craftsmanship, smart technology, and off-grid sustainability. It is finished with low-emission non-toxic paints and materials sourced from Chiang Mai artisans and Bangkok boutiques, all set within 1,400 m² of peaceful tropical gardens with partial sea-view and full mountain-view, a rare sustainable escape surrounded by tropical plants, butterflies, and birds.

Peaceful Location & Easy Access: Tucked into a quiet hillside away from road noise on the west side of the island, the villa is a 5-minute ride to Srithanu, yoga schools, restaurants, and 7-Eleven, and 10 minutes to Hin Kong bars, restaurants, and the nearest beach. An easy, mostly paved road leads to the private driveway and spacious covered parking under the house for both cars and scooters. Renting a car or scooter is recommended to get around the island easily.
