At home on Samui: 7 ways to enjoy house life

House life & lazy days. Staying in a rented house on Samui, there are compelling reasons to stay at home. A few favourite around-the-house activities….

1. Sleep in. Renting a full house? Breakfast happens when you’re good and ready. Pancakes for lunch? No one’s judging.
2. Outdoor shower. Sybaritic souls can take a cooling shower in one of the lush outdoor bathrooms.
3. Nothing nasty. Enjoy an environment free of unnecessary chemicals – we’re fiendishly eco around the house. The same goes in the organic garden, too.

4. Do nothing. Nothing at all. In fact, staring at our view (above) might take up quite a lot of time.
5. Keep your cool. Stay in a house built to maximise sea breezes. Cleverly placed windows join forces with ceiling fans for minimal electricity consumption. Of course, air conditioning’s there as a trusted back-up.
6. Float your boat. Jet lag or a late night? We’ll make a scientific guess that a soak in the infinity pool will do just as much good as a bath of Epsom salts. The clever pool system ensures your skin stays its happiest – next-to-no chemicals needed.
7. Read in the shade. Stacks of books await, in a favourite corner claimed as your own (Try a book about Thailand?). Gentle sea breezes and a coconut shake complete the picture – whether you’re in the sala or one of the outdoor living areas.
