Andara Resort — 4–6BR hillside pool villas for multi-gen

63 hillside pool villas in Kamala with spectacular Andaman Sea views. 4–6 bedroom configs are the multi-gen choice ($2,500–6,000/night for 8–12 guests — strong per-person). On-site chef, supermarket on-property, shuttle to Kamala beach. Pool-fence add-on and kids' club included.
