Kamala & Surin Property for Sale, Phuket

Kamala & Surin: the character of the area

Kamala is a cosy bay with a beach, a village feel and small restaurants, popular with families. Surin and the hills between the two are a traditionally premium part of the coast, with hillside villas overlooking the Andaman Sea. Both Patong and Bang Tao are easy to reach, but day-to-day life here is free of the bustle.

The terrain is hilly, so there are many projects with panoramic views — and fewer flat plots right on the beach.

What our catalogue offers

We list 8 projects in Kamala — 4 condominiums and 4 villa developments, all under construction. Condos start from THB 4.2M, with a median of around THB 136,000 per sq m, noticeably above the island average: buyers pay for the views and the proximity to the sea.

Projects include The Title Vivana, Coralina Kamala, Naturale Kamala, Wallaya Hill, Botanica Montazure, Botanica Ocean Valley and residences under the InterContinental brand.

How to choose

Since every project here is under construction, the developer's reliability and the payment schedule matter most. Check building permits and the EIA for larger complexes, completion dates and penalties for delay.

For hillside villas, ask about the steepness of the access road and the drainage. For condos, check which way the windows face and whether the view is protected.

How to buy property in Kamala

A foreigner can own a condo freehold as long as the building's foreign quota — 49% of the floor area — has not been used up. The funds must come from abroad, and the bank issues an FET certificate. Villas are usually held on a 30-year leasehold: a foreigner cannot own the land, and renewals are a term of the contract, not a legal guarantee. On registration you pay a 2% transfer fee plus either 3.3% specific business tax or 0.5% stamp duty; the contract states who pays what.
