1-bedroom villa 62 m² SHA-KOON, Maenam
Main Characteristics
Apartment Description
The Cocoon, a comfortable villa in the SHA-KOON project, is laid out like a spacious suite in a design hotel, only it is your own. You can buy a 1-bedroom villa 200 m from the sea in Maenam fully furnished and with resort services, and guests will recognise the house at a glance by its wooden cocoon-shaped roof.
The 62 m² floor area is split over two levels, on a plot of about 100 m²:
downstairs, a living room with a sofa and television, a kitchen and a guest bathroom
a circular terrace with built-in seating opens onto the garden
upstairs, a bedroom with a round king-size bed, a walk-in closet and a shower room
a balcony accessed from the bedroom
Curved walls, natural timber, stone and a warm sandy palette throughout, with a round bed beneath the high roof: this is a bedroom you will want to photograph first thing in the morning.
The 1-bedroom villa is the most accessible way into SHA-KOON and is the easiest to rent to couples. The resort's swimming pool, restaurant, yoga and sauna are a few steps away, and the property management company handles letting, so you can invest in property without day-to-day involvement.

Property Advantages
Design you won't find next door
A timber cocoon roof, a round bed and softly curved walls make the villa recognisable from the first frame. Guests choose it from the photos rather than the price, and happily share their own snaps.
A resort on your doorstep
The infinity pool restaurant, yoga, sauna and concierge service are all within the SHA-KOON grounds. The owner lives as if in a hotel, but in their own home.
The most accessible entry point
The 1-bedroom villa is the entry point to the project for the most modest budget. It is easy to let to couples and to those who travel to Koh Samui to train at the Bang Tao camps.

About developer
Prime Paradise Co., Ltd. is developing a resort on Koh Samui, not a sale-only villa compound. The company runs under the slogan The Dreams Real Estate Maker and manages the project end to end: architecture, construction, sales and subsequent management. Its first project, SHA-KOON, brings together 28 organic-architecture villas with an on-site restaurant, a wellness area and hotel-style service in Mae Nam, near Ban Tai beach.
The company was founded by professionals with European construction experience. The founder, an engineer with a background in property law and economics, spent more than 20 years building and developing projects in France: luxury villas, large buildings, and timber and energy-efficient homes. That experience shows in SHA-KOON: natural materials, forms that follow the contours of the plot, and finishes designed for the tropical climate without costly upkeep.
Key figures:
Registered with the Department of Business Development (DBD) in Thailand since February 2019
Specialisation: development and management of resort property
Flagship project SHA-KOON: 28 villas on a 5,800 m² plot
In-house management company for the resort
General contractor Blue Enterprise Construction with a permanent staff of 60
General contractor
SHA-KOON is being built by Blue Enterprise Construction Co., Ltd. The contractor specialises in premium villas and resorts, works on the demanding terrain of the island, and carries out finishes in polished concrete, stone and timber. A permanent team of 60 staff, rather than crews assembled for individual projects, ensures continuity of work. Prime Paradise keeps supervision of the build in its own hands: the developer's construction manager, a civil engineer, has delivered more than 20 projects in Thailand and has worked on Koh Samui and Koh Phangan for five years.
Management company
The resort is run by the developer itself under the SHA-KOON brand. Prime Paradise retains ownership of a number of villas, along with the restaurant, reception and wellness area, and operates them directly, so on-site service runs year-round. Villa owners are offered a choice: rent their villa themselves, through a third-party company, or through the SHA-KOON Hospitality and SHA-KOON Premium programmes, which cover cleaning, pool and garden maintenance, promotion on booking platforms and guest reception. A warranty and refurbishment programme for the villa, covering 30 years, is also available separately.
Why a purchase with Prime Paradise may suit you:
The developer signs the contracts itself, receives payments and is accountable to the buyer for timelines and quality
Lease Transfer protects the buyer: their rights do not depend on the financial position of an intermediary company
The buyer's name is entered on the title deed, and the building permit is issued in the buyer's name
Interest-free instalment plan, with payments linked to construction stages
Online investor account: payment schedule, documents and photos of each stage
The developer has a direct interest in keeping the resort occupied, as it rents its own villas alongside those of the owners
Buying a villa on Koh Samui from Prime Paradise means acquiring a home with designed architecture and a ready management system under one roof. For those considering investment in island property, this model answers the key question: who looks after the villa when the owner is not there.
