Heading to Thailand and want a private villa to luxuriate in? Away Resorts has just launched a suite of villas in Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai that's perfect for getting away from the hustle and bustle of city life (and also other tourists). 

Away Phucome Chiang Mai Villa is a three-bedroom villa that's located just minutes away from Chiang Mai Zoo. Features include a fully equipped kitchen and dining room, an alfresco dining area, a swimming pool and barbecue pit. Prices start from THB22,000 (S$855) a night during the off-peak season (May 1 to October 31). 

If you're traveling with a bigger party, the six-bedroom Away Nirvana Chiang Mai Villa offers a large living area, decks and terraces for lounging about, a private pool, barbecue pit and a massage sala. It's also a twenty-minute drive away from Chiang Mai's city center. Off-peak rates start from THB30,000 (S$1,165). 

Then there's also the seven-bedroom Away Paradise Chiang Mai Villa situated on the banks of the Ping River. It includes two fully equipped kitchens, a private pool, barbecue pit and more, plus it's located a stone's throw away from attractions like the Tiger Kingdom, elephant camps, waterfalls and golf courses. Off-peak rates start from THB32,000 (S$1,243).

Making a trip to Chiang Rai? Book in at the scenic Away Chiang Kham, which is nestled among rice fields with the mountains of Laos as a backdrop. There are two villas with three bedrooms each, and you'll get to enjoy facilities like a swimming pool, private tennis courts (that are purportedly of US Open standard), a golf fairway and a fitness center. Prices start from THB9,800 per room per night.
