The ever-stunning Point Yamu by COMO (076-360-100, www.comohotels.com/pointyamu) hotel on Phuket has unveiled what might be its finest work yet: 27 brand new, vast pool villas ranging in size from 170-620 sq meters.
 
Italian designer Paola Navone keeps the extension in keeping with the rest of the hotel, with a serene, largely white palette accented with aquamarines, Thai motifs and craftsmanship such as gray Sino-patterned tiles.
 
The floor-to-ceiling windows offer spectacular views of the Andaman Sea and limestone karsts of Phang Nga Bay. All rooms come with butler service along with in-villa private barbercue dinner.
 
Their website is now offering a pretty good low-season deal starting from B14,629 for Bay Pool Suite, B14,025 for Verandah Pool Suite and B36,268 for Como Suite. Stay tuned for a new beach club currently in the works, too.
