Domo Development

Brief Overview   Khun Khao Tara (also known as "Sky Rock Water") is an award-winning, ultra-luxury eco-estate comprising only 3 exclusive "Tree House" villas. Nestled on the lush western hillsides of Ang Thong, Koh Samui, this project redefines tropical living through its "Organic Eco-Luxury" philosophy. Each villa is a bespoke architectural masterpiece designed to harmonize with the jungle surroundings while offering sweeping 180-degree sunset views over the Gulf of Thailand. This project is ideal for ultra-high-net-worth investors seeking absolute seclusion, architectural uniqueness, and a sustainable legacy property.   Project Details   Developed by Domo Development, Khun Khao Tara spans a sprawling 4-rai plot, with each villa occupying over 1 rai (1,600–2,244 sqm) of private land. The architectural identity is defined by its soft, rounded "oval" edges and the use of natural raw materials, creating a structure that feels integrated into the forest rather than imposed upon it.   The project received the prestigious "Best Ultra Luxury Villa Development – Koh Samui" award at the DOT Property Thailand Awards 2023. Technical features include sustainable energy-efficient systems, deep-well water supply, and government-rate electricity. With a built area of approximately 1,300 sqm per villa, the construction emphasizes fluid indoor-outdoor transitions, utilizing floor-to-ceiling glass to capture the dramatic hillside topography and marine views.   Location/Information   Located in the Bang Makham / Ang Thong area on the serene west coast of Koh Samui, Khun Khao Tara sits in an emerging "luxury corridor." It is strategically positioned to offer the island’s most spectacular sunset vistas while remaining only 1.6 km from the tranquil Bang Makham Beach. The location provides a rare escape from the busy tourist zones of the east, focusing instead on privacy and a deep connection to nature.   Room Types and Facilities Breakdown   The estate offers expansive 4-to-5-bedroom configurations, with each villa functioning as a private resort:      - Master Villa (Main Building): Features 3-4 spacious en-suite bedrooms with private minibars, an open-plan grand living and dining hall, and a gourmet Western kitchen.     - Detached Bungalow (Tree House): A separate independent unit with its own bedroom, living area, and kitchen—perfect for guests or extended family.     - Infinity Saltwater Pool: A large, free-form pool designed to follow the natural contours of the hillside.     - Wellness Suite: Each villa includes a private steam room and sauna, as well as a multipurpose room convertible into a spa or additional bedroom.     - Staff Quarters: Dedicated maid’s rooms, staff kitchen, and laundry facilities to allow for seamless 24-hour service.     - Outdoor Social Zones: Extensive terraces, sunken seating areas, and a roof garden for alfresco entertaining.     - Covered Parking: On-site parking for up to 3 vehicles per villa.
