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.

A Banyan Group condo inside Laguna Phuket resort — ~300–350 m to Bang Tao beach, penthouses with rooftop pools
Laguna Bayside — condo project, Bang Tao · Laguna: entry from ~$895,234, from $6,331 per sqm. Beach: Bang Tao, ~300–350 m. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~7% developer projection (self-management or rental via operator). Completion: off-plan, roughly 2027–2028 (the developer and aggregators cite different quarters).
Laguna Bayside is a 234-unit condominium inside Laguna Phuket resort, developed by the Banyan Group holding, which has run the resort since the 1980s. Two low-rise, five-storey buildings are connected by footbridges over a canal; penthouses on the top floors get their own rooftop pools — an unusual detail for a building of this height. Bang Tao beach is about 300–350 metres from the project, within the resort’s own grounds.
Laguna Bayside’s main advantage isn’t the building itself, but the Laguna Phuket resort ecosystem around it: golf courses, beach clubs with loungers, an in-resort shuttle, and decades of property management track record. On-site amenities include a large free-form pool with a bar wrapping around both buildings, a separate indoor pool, a gym, and a rooftop garden. This kind of infrastructure is hard for a standalone developer outside a resort to replicate.
Entry to the project is from ~$895,234, with 2-bedroom apartments (~121 sqm) starting from ~$766,000; the final price depends on floor, view (garden, pool, lake, city, mountain or sea views are offered as separate options), and the specific layout — from 75 to 286 sqm for the top-tier penthouses. The developer’s yield projection is around 7% per year through self-management or participation in the resort’s rental program; this is a projection, not a guaranteed figure, and should be treated as a benchmark rather than a commitment.
A resort location typically means extra fees for Laguna Phuket infrastructure on top of the building’s standard CAM fee — worth confirming separately when selecting a specific unit, since the developer hasn’t yet published either a CAM fee or a sinking fund figure for the project.
The project is off-plan, and even the developer’s own materials describe the handover date inconsistently — both 2027 and 2028 are cited. Before reserving a unit, it’s worth confirming the current construction schedule directly. The foreign freehold quota is capped at 49% of the building — units beyond that quota are leasehold only, and this detail should be checked per specific listing.
As an agency, we’ll confirm the current handover schedule, freehold-quota availability for the unit you’re considering, and the actual terms of participating in the resort’s rental program, rather than relying solely on the projected yield from marketing materials. For clients comparing formats within Laguna Phuket, we’ll benchmark Bayside’s economics against other resort projects — such as Laguna Park or Skypark Elara Lakelands — in the catalog.

The developer information in this listing states: foreign freehold (49% building quota) or 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.
