Buy an apartment in Phuket
A buyer’s guide to Phuket’s west coast: districts, prices, ownership types and the deal process for foreigners. Plus apartments in new projects by the sea — direct from developers.
Why Phuket
The west coast
Kamala, Bang Tao, Surin and Nai Yang — Andaman Sea beaches with sunsets, quieter and greener than the island’s resort centre.
New projects by the sea
Most of the supply is new projects with pools and services, within walking distance or a few minutes from the beach.
Rentals and the airport
Phuket International Airport is 10–30 minutes from the west-coast districts, with visitors arriving from all over the world.
Foreign ownership
An apartment can be held in full ownership (Foreign Freehold) within the condo’s foreign quota.
Where to buy: districts
Our projects are on the island’s west coast. Bang Tao — a long beach and the widest choice of new projects. Kamala and Surin — cosy bays with sea views. Nai Yang — a quiet beach in a national park next to the airport.

- Contract & payment — funds transferred from abroad with an FET form for registration.
- Transfer — registration at the Land Department; you receive the title deed (chanote).
