We have just returned from a two week stay at this little paradise and can honestly say we loved every second. The villa has everything that you could need, it is safe, well designed, comfortable and clean with a gorgeous outside area that backs directly onto an unspoilt quiet part of the beach. WiFi and air conditioning are excellent. The team that work at the villa are exceptional. Kind, genuine and welcoming, they make Taru Villa 906 what it is. Anthony, Withana and Wasana took the greatest care of us and our one year old daughter, going above and beyond on numerous occasions. The food made by Wasana is incredible, he is an exceptional chef. I can honestly say that we ate most of the food on the menu and every dish was delicious. Every time we ate out we regretted it as it would never be as good! If you are looking for somewhere where you can really relax, with great service, food and standard of accommodation then Taru Villa 906 is for you. We will certainly be back.

Absolutely amazing place in every way, the only downside was the level of service from our butler, he was a really nice person, but on average it took 30mins - 1 hour to get drinks delivered as he often didn't check his phone for our orders
