Best vacation ever!
Me, my wife and our little son of 2.5, stayed in the Glasshouse for 4 weeks over xmas and New Year 2011/2012. We are from Sweden and was looking for a change from the cold and hard winter season in Scandinavia.
The location is a little bit off from the regular tourist areas, which is great! Compared to Patong and Karon beach, which are packed with tourists, the two beaches next to the house are virtually empty. The beaches are 100 and 200 meters away from the house, so very easy access. I preferred the one furthest away, it was less debris and very beautiful.
The house is fantastic and the view amazing. The pictures are true and give a good view of the place and its surroundings. There are some close by restaurants if you do not want to go into Phuket city for dinner. The best choice, we found, was to order from a local restaurant, they delivered within 30 min to the door.
The owner has a property manager, khun Pond, who, together with her team, gives a first class service. She can answer most of the enquiries and is also very helpful in whatever you need. If there for some reason is a problem they fix it immediately. Top class!
We also asked for cooking service on xmas eve and New Years eve, arrange by the property manager, which was over and beyond normal quality. Khun Pond also arranged for a masseuse to visit at regular intervals, very nice and relaxing.
We had a rental car, so it was very easy to access all things needed. I would recommend a rental, but there is also high availability of taxi service in Phuket.
All in all we were looking for a luxury vacation and that is what we found. I strongly recommend this property to anyone seeking this type of vacation spot.
I have already tried to book it again for next xmas, but unfortunately it is already booked by someone with the same opinion of the place as me.
Thanks Bradley, khun Pond, khun JoJo and the rest of the team for giving us a remarkably relaxing and good time in Phuket!
Andreas, Anna and little Leo!

Absolutely awesome! There is so much more that can be said but not much more that needs to be said than that. For two months our family enjoyed the breathtaking views and wonderful Thai hospitality that the Glasshouse afforded us. It was a home away from home in a world that we grew to love. Comfortable, private and beautiful.
The only problem I have recommending it, is that it might make it more difficult for us to enjoy it again!
Thanks for the memories

We spend a week at the Glass House and I believe there is no other way to describe the house than absolutely perfect. The house itself, the interior, the surroundings, the beach and the great beach restaurants nearby, the pool, you name it.
I actually planned to do some sightseeing and perhaps check out a couple of real estate agents, but ended up spending almost all of my time at the house. Highly recommended for those who really want to take a step back from the rat-race and just simply want to experience what life is all about.

Just said goodbye to the Glasshouse after a fabulous stay.
The house itself was magnificent - spacious, airy, beautifully light and elegantly furnished. It's a great space to share with friends or family. The real star of the show was the view from almost everywhere in the house over the pool through the palm trees and across Chalong Bay. It's breath-taking day and night.
A big thank you to Khun Pond and her team for looking after the place and us so kindly and efficiently.
This was our first visit to Phuket and we loved it, especially the sunset at Prom Tiep, the amazing Big Buddha, the bustle of Phuket old town (with some great restaurants) and driving home back to the calm lushness of Cape Panwa.
We loved the local market which is less than 10 minutes drive from the house and the fact that our biggest decision was whether to cook in the internal kitchen, the Thai kitchen at the back or on the huge barbecue by the pool....
Altogether - a treat!

The villa is fantastic offering resort style luxury while providing the comfort and privacy of being in your own home away from home.
The sweeping views over Chalong Bay and to the giant Buddha in the west are stunning.
While the beaches, markets and other shopping are easy to get to I was more than content floating around the Infinity pool soaking up the tropical surrounds.

The glasshouse is a beautiful villa in a stunning setting. It's spacious and light inside, surrounded by well maintained grounds full of floral interest year round. It also has a comprehensive entertainment system that delivers music to virtually any part of the house and poolside gazebo. We especially enjoyed sipping cocktails in the infinity pool while watching the sun set over the horizon.
The villa is a short walk down to either of two beaches, both fairly quiet though with a number of beach-side restaurants and bars to choose from. A number of interesting activities are within easy reach, including yachting at the other side of the harbor and shopping at Central. It's just as you imagine paradise to be like, and we enjoyed every minute of our two week stay. Highly recommended.

This is the most beautiful house with 4 big bedrooms, can easily accommodate 10 people. The layout is simply spacious and welcoming, it leads you to the swimming pool and the sun set view straight from the front entrance. It's beautifully furnished and well maintained.
Just about 1 minute walk to the beach. The other side of peninsula is the yacht club. Major shopping at Central with all different restaurants, department stores and cinema, it's conveniently located in the best quite place in Phuket next to the Chalong Bay. It's perfect for a group of 5-10 and family, highly recommended to anyone.
