- How it All Started
- Conservation
Sabai means ”laid back”, ”easy going”, ”peaceful feeling”. Sabai jai literally means ”well heart”, and this is the feeling we wish you to get when you visit our luxury pool villas. This the Thai’s use to express contentment, happiness or gratitude.
Villa Sabai Jai is situated on the southern end of the island, on a cape between two beautiful beaches, Tian Og and Sai Daeng. 10-15 minutes drive to the main villages on the island (Mae Haad and Sairee).
We were on our way to Koh Lanta to look at a plot that we were interested in, luckily we went even beyond Koh Tao to have a look what land was availabe there. After only 6 hours on the island, we had found our dream plot with an amazing location 35 meters above the sea, and it was for sale! Good was also that the ground was perfect for the dream project that we had in our minds for all these years. A villa facing south treating us with both sunrises and sunsets. Our wish was to have 3 bedrooms in separate buildings so that one can live undisturbed but close to rest of the family or friends, a main house with kitchen/dining/sitting areas, a large free form swiming pool and a private access to the sea from the large sundeck.
After 2,5 years of planning and construction our dream project was finished and we could move in.
It feels great to share this amazing villa with others that have the same feelings about it as we do. We try to spend as much time as possible in the villa, but since we have had more bookings than we ever thought we have now built two new pool villas (Gecko and Turtle Villas) on another cliff just 150 meters from Eagle Villa.
As we mentioned we have been staying in many hotels around the country (and the world). Whenever you come to a new place you have to get to know the place and it takes time. Maybe you miss the best things because you didn´t know about them. That´s why we have prepared two binders, one about the villa and one about the island with redommendations of what to do, where to eat and what beaches to visit etc. So it will be easy for you to get a quick feeling about the island. We hope you find them useful!
Make your dreams come true!

CUSTOMER SAYS
Paradise...
I stayed at Villa Sabai Jai as part of a large group to celebrate a friends wedding and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The staff were so attentive and always willing to assist in anyway. The owner Bob and his wife were very welcoming and continued to ensure we had a comfortable stay through out. The Villa itself is simply spectacular and it was very hard to leaveMegan, Sydney, Tripadvisor
Fantastic Villa, great facilities with a million dollar view
We have stayed in several villas throughout Asia and this would undoubtedly have the best view you would find anywhere. Villa was immaculate, and Wah Wah took care of everything, thank you.Paul, Australia, Booking.com
