High Above the Coast: Unwinding at Privy Stays Hillside Villa in Kashid

There is a distinct charm to vacationing slightly above the coastline rather than directly on the busy seafront. Perched on a serene hill in Kashid, Privy Stays Hillside Villa trades noisy beach traffic for open horizon lines, cool breezes, and uninterrupted 360-degree mountain views. Designed as a private sanctuary for families, large groups, and pet owners, this 4BHK bungalow provides the perfect balance of peaceful retreat and coastal convenience, making it a standout choice for those seeking luxury with value for money.

Designed for Shared Moments and Generous Space

Whether you are planning a multi-generational family holiday, a long-overdue catch-up with friends, or a quiet retreat away from the city, space is paramount. The villa easily accommodates 10 guests at base capacity and up to 16 guests maximum. Across the property, four spacious, air-conditioned master bedrooms—each complete with its own private attached bathroom—ensure that every member of your party enjoys personal privacy and seamless morning routines.

The interior spaces are complemented by versatile outdoor areas. Inside, an air-conditioned living room offers a cool haven during peak sunny hours. Outside, the covered dining patio acts as the heart of the villa, where guests gather over long breakfasts and evening conversations while taking in the surrounding hill views. An outdoor swing set against lush greenery adds a playful, nostalgic touch where you can unwind with a book or cup of tea.

Featuring the Largest Private Pool in the Collection

The highlight of the villa’s outdoor landscape is its massive private pool. Measuring 22 × 42 feet with a comfortable depth of 4.5 feet, it holds the distinction of being the largest swimming pool in the entire Privy Stays collection. Proportioned generously enough for swimming laps, group water games, or simply floating under the open sky, the pool area serves as the ultimate focal point for relaxation and fun.

Because the entire grounds are pet-friendly (with prior notice), your pets can enjoy exploring the spacious lawn while you lounge by the water.

Dining at the villa extends beyond standard room service. Guests can choose from extensive à la carte, vegetarian, and non-vegetarian menus, or transform mealtime into an event:
