Cohiba Villas Phuket – Elevated Luxury Sea View Villas in Layan Cohiba Villas Phuket is an exclusive hillside development of just 8 luxury private pool villas in Layan, positioned approximately 70 metres above sea level with commanding views towards the Andaman Sea, Layan Beach and the surrounding tropical valley. The project combines large-scale contemporary tropical architecture with substantial land plots, extensive private facilities and a high degree of customisation for individual owners. The villas offer 3 to 6-bedroom configurations , with current designs ranging from approximately 680 sqm to 1,437 sqm in total villa area . Land plots range from approximately 602 to 1,340 sqm , providing considerably more space and privacy than many newer villa developments in the wider Bangtao and Cherngtalay market.

Open-plan living areas, infinity pools, large terraces and extensive glazing take advantage of the outlook, while natural materials including limestone, teak, timber and marble give the homes a warm tropical character. Despite containing only eight villas, Cohiba also provides residents with private estate facilities including a professional gym, tennis court, sauna, steam room and ice bath .

Why Cohiba Villas Stands Out

  • Panoramic Andaman Sea Views – Positioned approximately 70 metres above sea level, the hillside setting provides extensive views towards Layan Beach, the Andaman Sea and surrounding tropical landscape.
  • Only 8 Luxury Villas – An exceptionally low-density gated estate offering significantly more privacy than most new developments around Layan and Bangtao.
  • Exceptional Villa Sizes – Residences range from approximately 680 sqm to as much as 1,437 sqm, with land plots reaching approximately 1,340 sqm.
  • Flexible 3–6 Bedroom Configurations – Selected villas can be customised to suit the buyer, allowing greater flexibility in bedrooms, entertainment spaces and overall layout.
  • Serious Private Pool & Outdoor Spaces – Large saltwater infinity pools, extensive terraces and outdoor entertaining areas maximise the project's elevated tropical setting, with the flagship villa featuring a pool approximately 16 metres long.
  • High Specification & Natural Materials – Cedar roofing, limestone, teak, engineered timber and marble are combined with modern features including solar power, battery storage, smart-home systems and EV charging.

Villa Types & Sizes

Cohiba Villas offers a collection of individually designed 3 to 6-bedroom luxury residences, with layouts that can be customised according to the individual owner's requirements.

The flagship Sea View Villa 1 offers six bedrooms and approximately 1,437 sqm of total villa area on a 1,207 sqm land plot. It includes a substantial 16 x 4.5-metre swimming pool and extensive outdoor entertaining areas.

Sea View Villas 2 and 3 provide five bedrooms and approximately 680 sqm of total villa area, with plots ranging from approximately 602 to 1,012 sqm. These two-storey homes position the main living, dining and kitchen areas alongside the elevated pool deck, with four en-suite bedrooms on the lower level.

Sea View Villas 7 and 8 offer flexible three or four-bedroom configurations, with approximately 832–921 sqm of total villa area on plots of approximately 719–826 sqm. Villas 7 and 8 are already completed.

Other configurations provide three or four bedrooms with approximately 846 sqm of total villa area, including designs featuring roof terraces, secondary pools and entertainment areas.

The ability to customise selected residences provides buyers with greater flexibility over bedrooms, entertainment areas, storage and other lifestyle spaces.

 

Unit Views & Features

The hillside setting is arguably Cohiba's strongest physical feature. Most residences are positioned to capture extensive or uninterrupted sea views, while selected plots combine sea and tropical valley outlooks.

The main living levels are deliberately elevated on several villa types, allowing the open-plan living, dining and kitchen areas to face directly towards the sea.

Large private saltwater swimming pools form the centrepiece of the outdoor areas, ranging up to approximately 16 metres in length. Generous pool decks, covered terraces and outdoor dining areas provide substantial spaces for entertaining.

Selected villas also incorporate rooftop terraces with an additional pool, kitchen, dining and entertainment space, while elevators are included in certain configurations.

The material specification places particular emphasis on natural finishes, including cedar roofing, limestone flooring, engineered timber floors, teak veneer wardrobes, teak doors and ceilings, marble bathtubs and natural stone boundary walls.

Modern technical features include solar power with battery storage, smart gates and door locks, automatic curtains, LED lighting, automatic garden irrigation, humidity and temperature control and EV charging.

 

Ownership Options

Cohiba Villas offers a flexible ownership structure designed for both Thai and international purchasers.

Buyers acquire freehold ownership of the villa building. Because the individual land plots are subdivided, qualifying purchasers can acquire the land freehold where permitted under Thai law.

Foreign purchasers can alternatively use a long-term renewable land lease structure, combined with a share in the land-owning freehold entity.

The appropriate structure depends on the purchaser's circumstances, and independent legal advice should be obtained before entering into a purchase agreement.

 

Common Facilities & Services

For a development containing only eight residences, Cohiba provides an unusually comprehensive selection of shared lifestyle facilities.

Residents have access to a professional full-size gym together with a private tennis court.

A dedicated wellness area includes a sauna, steam room and ice bath, providing facilities normally associated with much larger resort developments.

The estate is gated and provides 24-hour security, individual villa CCTV systems and common-area maintenance.

Estate management is provided by Elite Havens, with optional services including housekeeping, cleaning, technical maintenance, pool and garden care, concierge assistance and rental management.

Each villa additionally has its own swimming pool, landscaped outdoor areas, private parking and extensive entertainment spaces, meaning owners retain the privacy of a standalone luxury home while benefiting from professionally managed estate infrastructure.

 

Location Advantages

Cohiba Villas occupies an elevated hillside position in Layan, Choeng Thale, combining privacy and panoramic views with relatively easy access to Phuket's established Bangtao lifestyle area.

Layan Beach is approximately 2.3 km away, or around five minutes by car, providing convenient access to one of the quieter sections of Phuket's west coast.

Laguna Phuket Golf Club is approximately 4.3 km or 10 minutes away, while the wider Laguna Phuket resort area provides restaurants, hotels, spas and recreational facilities.

Boat Avenue is approximately 5.8 km away and Porto de Phuket around 6.1 km, placing supermarkets, restaurants, cafés, boutiques and everyday services within approximately 15 minutes.

The location also provides convenient access to the wider Cherngtalay dining and lifestyle scene while remaining sufficiently removed from central Bangtao to retain a quieter hillside atmosphere.

Phuket International Airport is approximately 15 km away, making the project particularly convenient for international holiday-home owners and rental guests.

For buyers prioritising genuine sea views, privacy and large-scale luxury living while remaining close to Bangtao, Cohiba occupies a distinctive position within the Layan villa market.
