Our story
Stay, made stellar.
Our name joins two words: stay and stellar. It’s a promise to everyone who walks through the door of a Staylar villa.
Staylar was established in 2022 with a simple idea: a beautiful villa deserves to be run just as beautifully — for the guests who stay in it and the owners who trust us with it.
Today our teams on both islands welcome guests to private villas on Koh Samui and Phuket, keep each house in top condition, and report to owners clearly and regularly.
We make sure hosts and guests have a streamlined, comfortable, human and truly stellar hospitality experience. Everything else follows from that.
What we believe
Four standards we hold ourselves to.
They shape how we hire, how we train and how we decide — for guests and for owners alike.
Hospitality is personal
A real welcome at the door, a name you can call, a team that remembers how you like things.
Houses are cared for, not just cleaned
Preventive maintenance, regular inspections and pool and garden care keep every villa ready for its next guest.
Owners deserve clarity
Quarterly statements, a clear view of every booking and every cost, and straight answers.
We live where we work
Our teams are on the islands, so help is a short drive away — and our recommendations come from experience.
Our signature
Outstanding Hospitality by SKHAI.
It’s the line under our name, and the standard we hold every stay to: a welcome at the door, a house kept just so, and a team that is one message away.
For guests, that means villas looked after by people who know them inside out. For owners, it means a villa run with real, everyday care.
How we work
One team per island, every role in-house.
Guests and owners each have one point of contact. Behind them, the whole team works on the same villas.
Every guest and every owner is introduced to the people looking after them by name.
