Overview
Villa The Wave is a 30-villa, two-storey pool-villa development on the Chaweng Noi hillside above Bo Phut, developed by Saitarn Samui Company Limited (also styled Saitharn Samui Public Company Limited on the project's own FazWaz page) and completed in March 2016 -- the developer's own dedicated FazWaz profile independently confirms exactly "1 Project 30 Units", matching this project's unit count. Villas come in 3-bedroom/4-bathroom and 4-bedroom/4-bathroom layouts starting at 300 sqm of living area, each with a private L-shaped infinity pool, imported furniture and a Western kitchen, built into the hillside so every unit gets a 180-degree sea view to the front and a mountain view to the rear. It sits about 1.2km from Chaweng Noi Beach and roughly 20 minutes from Samui International Airport, filling a genuine gap in this file's coverage of the Chaweng strip itself (as opposed to the Bo Phut cluster marketed as "near Chaweng Beach"). Coordinates were independently self-pinned in Google Maps against the project's own "Villa The Wave" Business Profile (4.5 stars, 101 reviews, hillside villa-cluster photo matching FazWaz's own project imagery), distinct from the separate, newer "Villa The Wave 2 Residence" project nearby -- do not conflate the two. As with all Samui villa land, ownership cannot be foreign-freehold; the villa structure itself can be held outright via the house registry, while the land is held on a registered lease or through a Thai company, so confirm the exact structure per unit before committing. Pets are not permitted under the project's published management policy. No live rental listing was found at time of research, so the rent range shown is a directional estimate anchored to comparable Chaweng/Bo Phut hillside pool-villa developments of similar scale, not a confirmed lease figure.
