Check out a new collection of luxe villas

There is something special about staying in your own private villa.

You have privacy, the ability to whatever you want to do when you want to do it, and staff to cook and clean for you should you require them.

Elite Havens, an Asian leader in high-end holiday rental vacations that is part of the Dusit Thani group, has just launched its new Signature Collection for when travel returns to normal. 

It comprises a selection of villas and chalets in destinations such as Phuket, Koh Samui, Bali, Lombok, Sri Lanka, India, Japan and the Maldives. 

Each villa or chalet is said to boast prime locations, world-class facilities and impeccable service. 

Some havens come fully staffed with in-villa teams while others are supported by highly trained service staff and a remote concierge. 

Villas that are staffed with in-house teams include the services of a professional chef experienced in local and international cuisines. 

For a villa or chalet to be considered as part of the elite Signature set, it must fulfil strict criteria such as stunning locations and views, spaciousness, design-centric architecture, highest quality interiors, high-end facilities, superior comfort level, unique touches, and exceptional service.
