Naturally Thai!
Privacy, comfort, service and style unite in the heart of nature at Green Gecko, your luxurious Thai getaway villa!
 |
Set in extensive grounds, with a private swimming pool, this traditional rural retreat beckons you to relax. The property itself is set among flowering gardens and plantations of tropical trees, sugar cane and cassava, and enjoys views over the surrounding rice paddies. During your holiday, your personal chef prepares delicious Thai dishes for you and we ensure that the house is fully serviced. |
Your stay at this dramatic villa in the heartlands of Thailand provides you with unique access to a side of the country generally inaccessible to tourists.
Green Gecko is located in Thailand's Northeast, or "Isaan", about 30 minutes from Udon Thani airport, which is served by frequent daily services from Bangkok, and from Chiang Mai.
.... a delightful and unexpected Thai villa with distinctive architecture in a unique setting. The place's space & freedom, the people's hospitality and the delightful food will certainly call us back soon...

About us
Guests at Green Gecko are welcomed and looked after by an extended local family, who in turn live in rural villages nearby, beyond the Thai forest temple.
The success of our first property encouraged us to design and launch this second villa. We hope Green Gecko will not only provide our guests with an enjoyable and memorable holiday experience, but also permit a greater number of our family and friends to make a living locally, near our home. We are very aware that the success of this endeavour relies fully upon ensuring that your stay is relaxing, interesting and fun! We are always keen to welcome back guests who have stayed with us before, and like to consider subsequent visits to rent the house again as a sign of success.
Why rent a Thai villa?
Thailand may be a popular travel destination, but the vast majority of visitors to the Kingdom rarely venture away from the tourist meccas of Chiang Mai, Phuket, Koh Samui Hua Hin and Pattaya, and generally just book a hotel or resort in which to while away their time.
We believe that there is a growing trend and desire amongst visitors to get off the beaten path and to track down a unique, one-of-a-kind experience. A hotel room that stacks us up with other displaced souls, or a resort that prefers us to remain within its walls, is less attractive than ever.
Simultaneously, we believe that guests today have much higher expectations and seek a greater awareness of the lifestyles and traditions of the locales that they visit. They are keen to keep travel sustainable: with a constant eye upon the environment and a mind to help the indigenous people wherever possible, yet without sacrificing comfort, facilities and style.
Green Gecko continues our principles of maintaining all revenues within the community, and developing sustainable tourism in Thailand's Northeast (or "Isaan") - traditionally one of the poorest regions of the country. Please join us!
