1-Bedroom Apartment with an Island Kitchen — Calypso Garden

A one-bedroom apartment at Calypso Garden — a resort condominium a seven-minute walk from Rawai Beach. What sets this unit apart from its neighbours is the kitchen: instead of the standard run along the wall, there is an island with a stone worktop and bar stools that divides the apartment into kitchen and living room.

Island kitchen with a breakfast bar and a balcony over greenery

The living room with its sofa and TV opens onto the balcony; behind the island is the kitchen with an induction hob, an oven, a microwave, a fridge and a full set of crockery. The bedroom is separated by a slatted timber wall and holds a king-size bed, a TV, a fitted wardrobe and a dressing table. There is one bathroom, with a glass-screened shower and a stone vessel basin.

Rooftop pool, gym and playground

On the roof there is a panoramic pool with sun loungers and umbrellas, a bar and a lounge with hammocks; from here you see the bay and the islands. In the courtyard there is a second pool, and beside the building a playground with a climbing wall and a lawn. The gym takes up a whole floor with panoramic windows: cardio, weight machines and free weights. The grounds are gated with 24-hour security.

About the sea view

The catalogue calls this a Sea View unit. To be precise: the sea is visible from the roof — from the apartment's own balcony you look out at greenery and the neighbouring blocks. If you want the bay from the window itself, we have another unit in this same building — Calypso Garden 402.
