This five-bedroom contemporary oasis is a spacious, elegant villa set in a tropical retreat just 700m from white sand beaches and national park; 10 mins drive to the coolest cafes and restaurants, boutique shops and supermarkets of Boat Avenue; 5 minutes to golf club, spa and tennis courts and 20 mins from the airport.
Set in a luscious gated estate hidden amongst a canopy of palm trees and tropical gardens – with emphasis on privacy, the vibe is contemporary zen.
The living space covers 890sqm on a 2,100 sqm plot. The open plan kitchen with white leather bar stools around a large island, the spacious dining room with stand alone piano and the living room with oversized couches all have opening glass doors leading onto a beautiful lawn, a 20m marbled infinity swimming pool with oversized flower-filled pots and a spacious garden. Undercover terraces and cushion filled sala make the space perfect for entertaining, relaxing with a book or yoga in the shade.
Sunset through the fan palm trees is spectacular, especially with a glass in your hand, all the doors open to the garden, some chilled tunes playing and – when the tide is high – the sound of the sea beyond.
Neighbourhood: Honestly, the best location in Phuket. We chose this location as our home after living for 16 years in Phuket. It has everything at our fingertips, yet we are nestled in a tropical paradise and minutes from the best beaches. There is no sea view - but the privacy, tropical birds, the easy access and the enormous spaciousness won our hearts.
Other things to note:
Enjoy playing the piano.
The rope swing is my fav for reading a book and contemplating.
Table tennis table is set up for fun anytime.
Smart LED mood lighting throughout.
Sound system - multi-zone indoor / outdoor.
The movie room is a huge success with all the family - and separate from the living room so kids and adults can have separate rooms to watch different movies at the same time.
A full cupboard of board games for all ages.
The pool has a large shallow area for small children to play in. It has a submerged seat along the full length of the pool to sit on and enjoy a cool drink. It is perfect for training laps or playing games. Gorgeous surrounding terrace and garden which is perfect for entertaining.
The long white sandy beach is minutes walk or drive from the villa with little bars for a coconut or cocktails or cheap Thai food - It's our favourite Phuket beach. We surf in the rainy season and paddle board and swim the rest of the time.

What is the property tax in Layan?
There is no annual property tax in Layan for residential properties.

What is the average cost to buy a property in Layan?

Properties in Layan are available both close to the beach and slightly more inland, depending on the type and budget. Luxury beachfront villas and high-end resorts line the quieter southern stretch of Layan Beach, offering direct access to the sand and sea. Meanwhile, many private pool villas, modern homes, and residential developments are nestled in the nearby hills and lush inland areas, typically within a 5–10 minute drive to the beach. This balance allows buyers to choose between serene coastal living or more secluded, nature-surrounded properties with elevated views and added privacy.
