Top real estate properties in the north and south of Phuket, Thailand 2023
Phuket is one of the most sought-after destinations in the world, and it’s easy to see why. With its stunning beaches, world-class amenities, and an abundance of outdoor activities. Phuket is the perfect place to invest in real estate. Whether you’re looking for a modern villa with top-class amenities in the north or a luxurious property with sea views in the south, Phuket has something for everyone.
The Thaiger team recently had the opportunity to explore some of Phuket’s top real estate properties and sit down with their developers to ask them why they chose to develop land in the north or south of Phuket island.
LuxPride by Wallaya Villas
In the north, Cherng-Talay is home to some of the best beaches in the world and is close to high-class restaurants, entertainment venues, golf courses, international schools, and shopping centres.
LuxPride by Wallaya Villas is a new modern 3-bedroom villa located in the heart of Cherng-Talay. This villa boasts spacious rooms, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an open-concept living area. The villa also features a beautiful private pool, an outdoor terrace, and a fully equipped kitchen. With its sleek and modern design, Wallaya Lux Pride offers the perfect blend of comfort and luxury.
We spoke with Mr. Lamphun Tangnoi, the developer of Vallaya Lux Pride. He said…
“I chose to build Wallaya Lux Pride in the north of Phuket in the Pasak area because it is a new town. It’s in close proximity to high-class restaurants, entertainment venues, and shopping centres. I see a lot of demand for these types of villas and as a developer, we need to meet the demands of the customer.”
Indeed the Cherng-Talay area has a lot to offer which also includes golf courses, international schools, and shopping centres. Cherng-Talay is a classy, vibrant area where a lot of foreign expats choose to reside and it’s no wonder why.
QAV
QAV is an upcoming new project that focuses on living, health, and wellness. This unique project is designed to offer residents a holistic and sustainable lifestyle, combining modern luxury living with a focus on health, fitness, and wellness. The project features spacious villas, all designed with a focus on living life as a community. QAV also features state-of-the-art fitness and wellness amenities. Located in the heart of Pasak, QAV combines living with health and wellness. It is one of the only projects in Phuket with a residential living space that has access to its sports, health, and wellness centre.
Mr. Pradubpunk Ruckprachar, the developer of QAV said…
“As a developer who has experience in developing communities, I am excited to bring the QAV concept to this area. We also want to offer something unique to the market by combining our QAV residence with QAV well-being, we create a community that stands out from other residential projects. We feel that this has been missing from other projects on the island.”
TRICHADA
The third property we wanted to highlight in the northern region of Phuket is Trichada in Cherng-Talay, a stunning 4-bedroom villa designed for family living. This villa features a spacious and open-concept living area, modern appliances, and luxurious finishes. It also boasts a private pool and a lot of garden space for family living.
With its spacious rooms and family-friendly design, Trichada Sky Villas is the perfect choice for families looking to enjoy a luxurious and comfortable lifestyle in Phuket. Living in a gated community always has its benefits and with a brand like Trichada that has already completed two successful projects on the island, you can rest assured that the property you are buying is from an experienced and trusted developer.
Longone Villa
In the south, Chalong is a quieter area of Phuket. This area is perfect for families as it has many reputable international schools in the area, but also for individuals who seek adventure as outdoor and water sports activities are abundant.
The last property we’re going to look at is in Chalong called Longone Villa by Yadalong Development. There are very few luxurious sea-view residential properties available for purchase in Chalong. Yadalong Development offers stunning sea views and luxurious living in a vibrant and family-friendly community.
We spoke with Ms. Sasha, the sales representative of Longone Villa, to discuss their reasons for building these projects in the south of Phuket.
“This southeast side of the island you are able to have amazing sea views. There is plenty to do in this area in terms of activities and entertainment as well. It’s a two-minute walk to the beach, close to Kata which has one of the best beaches in Phuket, five minutes to old town Phuket, and also 20 minutes to Patong. It’s hard to find properties with sea view villas in this price range in Phuket.”
Phuket is a great place to invest in real estate. With its stunning beaches, world-class amenities, and an abundance of outdoor activities, Phuket is the perfect place to invest in real estate. Whether you’re looking for a modern villa with top-class amenities in the north or a luxurious property with sea views in the south, Phuket has something for everyone.

Thailand Property FAQ
Can foreigners buy property in Thailand?
Yes. Foreigners can own condominium units freehold, as long as foreign buyers hold no more than 49% of the building's saleable area. Land cannot be owned directly by foreigners; houses are usually held through a 30-year lease — and since a March 2025 Supreme Court ruling, automatic “30+30+30” renewal structures are not enforceable beyond the first 30 years. Read the full foreign-ownership guide.
What is Thailand's 49% foreign quota?
In any condominium project, no more than 49% of the total saleable floor area can be foreign-owned. The quota applies only to condos — not houses, land or leaseholds — and popular buildings in Bangkok, Phuket and Pattaya can hit the cap. How the quota works in practice.
How much are property transfer fees in 2026?
The transfer registration fee is cut to 0.01% (from the standard 2%) and the mortgage registration fee to 0.01% (from 1%) for purchases where both the price and assessed value are 7 million baht or less — extended by the Cabinet on June 30, 2026. On a 6-million-baht home that saves around 120,000 baht. Who qualifies for the cut · Standard fees & who pays what.
Is it better to rent or buy in Thailand as an expat?
It mostly depends on your time horizon: for stays under roughly five years renting usually wins once transfer costs and resale friction are counted, while longer stays can favour buying — especially with 2026's reduced fees. The rent-vs-buy maths for expats.
How much does property cost in Thailand?
A little over 2 million baht buys a freehold one-bedroom condo in central Chiang Mai — the same budget covers only a studio in Bangkok's CBD. Prices vary sharply by region and city. Average prices by region, and what they buy you.
What taxes do property owners pay in Thailand?
Owners pay the annual land and building tax, and rental income is taxable; buyers and sellers split one-off costs like transfer fees, stamp duty or specific business tax depending on the deal. The go-to guide to Thai property taxes.
