A stunning new development, Istana Phuket, has just been launched. Set on a breath-taking 24 acre site overlooking pristine Naithon Beach on the North-west corner of Phuket Island, the project has already been given the accolade of “Top Ten Luxury Project” by Asia’s most respected industry publications. Named Istana after the Sanskrit term for Palace, the guiding principal behind every design element of the Istana Phuket is the word FOO - which literally stands for Feeling of Opulence. The Istana Phuket development is made up of nineteen estates with un-beatable views across the Andaman Sea. Each plot ranges between 1,600 and 3,200 square metres and is designed to blend seamlessly with the rain forest environment, offering a sense of total tranquillity.
When it comes to the interior design there is also no expense spared and innovations include:
• Sixteen-seat dinner tables and home cinemas
• Italian Poliform kitchens and wardrobes
• Lutron Hone Information Systems to give owners total control of the interior environment and allow them to summon staff from anywhere in the villa.
• Huge back kitchen areas that can cater for social parties with up to a hundred guests
• Home gymnasiums
• Finely wrought stone and timber floors, Italian cabinetry and joinery,
• Exquisite art works and the best of contemporary furniture
• Southern Italian Travertine marble finishing
• Separate au pair and staff quarters
• Walk-in wine cellars in some of the villas
Each Istana villa also has a bespoke cocktail station and bar, catering for up to 150 guests, complete with hand-crafted bar equipment and a unique signature cocktail list.
As a testament to the estates popularity, nine of the opulent 4 to 6 bedroom villa estates have sold immediately and the remaining ten are for sale starting at just over £2 million or €2.3 Million.

FRANCE
Le Portail, Lunac (La Fouillade)
This luxury villa in France sleeps 8 and dates right back to the 17th Century. It is a stunning example of a traditional farm property with a mixture of polished wood floors, exposed stone and painted walls, which are a backdrop to the pretty floral fabrics and carved wood furniture.
Kitted out with all the mod cons you could wish for, we can’t think of a nicer property to stay atin South West France.

El Banco is 110-acres with one of the longest stretches of white, sandy beach on the Punta de Mita Peninsula. This lush beachside setting is just north of Puerto Vallarta on Mexico’s Pacific Coast and offers two luxurious beach villas just released for private leasing. From a cost of $2,000 USD (plus 16% tax) per night you can have your own slice of paradise with expansive views of the Bay of Banderas, Marietas Islands, Sierra Madre Mountains and of course El Banco’s long stretch of white-sand beach.
The villa’s have their own unique El Banco style, inspired by Mexico’s Spanish Colonial roots- lots of grand arches, gracious courtyards and hand-craftsmanship. You’ll also find each villa contains every conceivable modern day comfort in a very generous space.
You have access to concierge services to arrange a variety of activities and luxuries, including golf, surf lessons, in-home massage, yoga, restaurant reservations, local excursions, trips to luxury spas and a private chef to prepare up to three meals a day.
If you’re to for a break with equal amounts of indulgence and relaxation, look no further than the town of Olhão in southern Portugal.
Other than a smattering of British day-trippers, the majority of people you will come across will be fisherman ferociously arguing over dominos, the odd stray dog seeking respite from the sun and locals basking in the good weather.
Over the course of a week in Olhão, we spent our mornings at the town’s two markets – one bursting with fresh fish and seafood, the other overripe with local fruit and vegetables, as well as the odd pig’s head and local cheese.
