Three-bedroom teakwood villa at The Teak Phuket, Cherng Talay

Teakwood detailing gives this Cherng Talay villa its name and its character: The Teak Phuket combines warm interior woodwork with a modern European kitchen and contemporary furnishings across 240 sq m, arranged as three bedrooms and four bathrooms.

The main rooms open towards the pool terrace, where sun loungers sit among tropical garden planting and the terrace is lit for evenings outside. Cherng Talay keeps Bang Tao and Layan beaches, the Laguna golf course and the shops of Boat Avenue and Porto de Phuket within a short drive.

The villa is offered for long-term and holiday rental, with rates on request. It suits families or groups of friends after a design-led house in the middle of the west-coast villa belt.
