When buying freehold
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.

Resort residences across 12 ha of tropical gardens, ~50m to the sea between Bang Tao and Layan
Gardens of Eden — condo project, Layan: entry from ~$370,000, from $5,139 per sqm. Both freehold and leasehold available. A managed rental program runs here — the yield is calculated per unit. Completion: first phase — late 2026.
Gardens of Eden is a resort development across ~12 hectares of tropical gardens by Bang Tao beach, on the border with Layan — roughly 50 metres to the sea. The first phase, Eden Residence, offers 141 residences from 72 to 179 sqm in low-rise buildings; later phases add villas and further infrastructure: lagoons, a spa, restaurants, a kids’ club.
The project sits right where Bang Tao meets Layan — a rare beachfront position for this part of the island: about 50 metres to the sand, and almost no buildable land this close to the water remains on the west coast. HKT Airport is about 30 minutes away by car. On its own 12 ha grounds, the project has two clubhouses (at the blue lagoon and at the main lake) with restaurants and pool decks, plus a roughly 5,000 sqm GOCO wellness center with a spa, gym, yoga sala and even an organic farm — infrastructure billed on the scale of a standalone resort rather than an ordinary condo complex.
The project’s core asset is the land itself: new beachfront positions on Phuket’s west coast have all but stopped appearing, which underpins both price growth and rental rates. Unit sizes run larger than the typical “investment condo” — entry is from ~$370,000 for a 72–179 sqm residence, with flagship residences and penthouses running up to ~$3.4M: the project targets resort living rather than short-term-rental micro-studios.
The developer is Amal Group, backed by Dubai capital; for a buyer that means the contract and payment schedule deserve careful due diligence. The first phase (Eden Residence) is slated for late 2026, with further phases adding villas and the rest of the infrastructure later — timelines on a project of this scale are worth verifying at the time of purchase.
We will verify the terms of a specific unit, compare it with alternatives in Layan and Bang Tao, and manage the transaction — at no change to your price.

Our catalog currently tracks 25 projects in Layan; new-build entry level here: from ~$116,384. Gardens of Eden’s entry price is about 46% below the district median — one of the most affordable starts in the area.
The median is calculated from the “from” prices of all catalog projects in the district and refreshes with every update.
Neighbours are picked by the same property type and the closest entry price in the same area — the projects our buyers actually shortlist against each other. Figures recalculate with every catalogue update.

The developer information in this listing states: freehold / leasehold. This is the project-level starting point, not a legal opinion on a particular unit. The contract, title, foreign quota and seller authority must be verified before reservation.
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.
Leasehold is registered as a long-term lease. The review covers the term, renewals, assignment, inheritance, early termination and the landowner’s obligation to register the transaction.
Verify the receiving legal entity, construction milestone, payment trigger, delay remedies and the documents the seller must deliver for registration.
This is general information. Structure and taxes depend on the unit, seller and contract; an independent Thai lawyer should complete the final review.
Indicative estimate: yield and the rental model depend on the project, unit and management program. Request an exact projection for a specific unit.

One of the island’s very few new beachfront positions: about 50 metres to the sand where Bang Tao meets Layan beach. Almost no buildable land this close to the sea remains on the west coast.
The first phase (Eden Residence) is slated for late 2026, with further phases to follow. Verify timelines at the moment of purchase — ask us for the current construction status.
Beachfront plus resort infrastructure is a strong rental proposition, but the outcome depends on the unit and management program. We’ll send a projection for a specific unit.
No guaranteed rate is claimed: a managed rental program runs here and income follows occupancy. We calculate it for the specific unit.
Funds arrive from abroad in foreign currency and the Thai bank issues an FET form. Without it the Land Department will not register freehold to a foreigner, so we agree the amount and payment reference in advance.
