I , like others before me it appears, booked this villa directly with the owner. as witnessed on my and others Youtube postings. The villa is located directly beside a major construcyion site in early stage of development. This was of course never mentioned by the owner, , and when I complained he seemed suprised that there was any noise ! The noise was continious from 0730 thu 2200 daily. To quote the construction site manager ¨here in Thailand we can work 24/7 ¨. The steps, around 100 down to the villa made it impossible for my 90 year old mother to handle.My family and I travelled from different corners of the globe to have this reunion it what was supposed to be a relaxing and beautiful destination. Instead the jackhammers and cranes were non stop and our memories will be that. I would only descibe this as fraud and hope others read this review before making my mistake.
