Why this district

A 3 km beach without crowds

A long sandy curve with a gentle entry into the sea. There is no Patong nightlife here and evenings are quiet — a beach for living, not for parties.

Patong with its malls and entertainment is about 8 km away; to the north lie Surin and Bang Tao with beach clubs and golf. Kamala is the calm middle of the west coast.

Low-rise development

There are almost no high-rises: resort-style condominiums of seven floors with large grounds, pools and gardens. The view of the hills and the sea stays.

Established infrastructure

Wattanapat Hospital, Big C, Tops and Villa Market, cafes and restaurants, the InterContinental and Hyatt Regency hotels — all within 2.5 km. You do not need a car every day.
