An intimate 11-villa lakeside community in Chalong — off-plan, from the same developer as the ready Larimar Villas
Larimar Vista — villa project, Chalong: entry from ~$725,065. Beach: Karon, ~8.8 km; Kata, ~20 min; Nai Harn, ~30 min. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~6% developer projection. Completion: off-plan, handover slated for February 2028.
Larimar Vista is an intimate club community of 11 villas in the Chalong area, an off-plan project from the same developer as the neighbouring, already-completed Larimar Villas. The format is 4 three-storey villas and 7 two-storey villas, with 4–5 bedroom layouts, a private pool and a 2–3 car garage at each house. Construction completion is slated for February 2028. Entry is from ~$725,065.
Like the neighbouring Larimar Villas, the complex sits in the residential part of Chalong by a lake and green zone, away from the tourist density of the west coast. The location is convenient for families: about 5–10 minutes by car to the BCIS and HeadStart international schools, and around 20 minutes to Phuket Town and the Central shopping mall. The beaches are far away: about 8.8 km to Karon, roughly 20 minutes to Kata, and about half an hour to Nai Harn — a car trip is required for every visit to the sea. In the same area our catalog also has Larimar Villas by the same developer — a neighbour that is already partly delivered and occupied, giving a benchmark of actual build quality before buying the Vista off-plan.
Entry from ~$725,065 is noticeably higher than the larger, already-completed Larimar Villas (from ~$526,782) — the difference is explained by the intimate format (11 villas versus 35), more spacious 4–5 bedroom layouts, and the status of a newer off-plan product. For a broader comparison across Chalong: the club-style La Vista Villas costs from $1,136,891, meaning Larimar Vista occupies an intermediate price tier between the mass-market and ultra-club segments of the area. Rental is projected by the developer at around 6% per year — the same benchmark as Larimar Villas, but so far without any operating history of its own, since the project is still under construction.
Athena Developer is delivering Larimar Vista as the second project under the Larimar villa brand after Larimar Villas — meaning the developer already has a first, actually built project nearby that’s worth studying as a quality benchmark before buying off-plan. Even so, the company remains a debutant specifically in real estate: its 20+ years of stated experience are in other industries, not housing development. The standard off-plan risk here is the time to handover (February 2028, more than a year and a half at the time of publication) and the fact that the actual schedule may shift, as with most under-construction projects on the island.
Who it suits: a buyer looking for an intimate club format with spacious layouts, willing to invest off-plan after studying an already-delivered equivalent nearby from the same developer. Those for whom a ready house right now or a lower entry point matters more should consider Larimar Villas from the same brand.
Our role as an agency is to verify the current construction schedule and permits for the specific villa, benchmark quality against the already-completed Larimar Villas from the same developer, and check the reservation terms and ownership structure before the first payment.

Our catalog currently tracks 17 projects in Chalong; new-build entry level here: from ~$84,530. Larimar Vista’s entry price is about 29% above the district median — the project sits in the upper segment of the location.
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 (house) / leasehold (land via assignment agreement). 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.
A foreign buyer may own the structure but cannot directly own Thai land. The land element is normally held through a registered long lease or another lawful structure. Term, renewals, inheritance and resale rights must be explicit in the contract.
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.

From ~$725,065 for a villa with 4–5 bedrooms. The complex is intimate — just 11 villas across two stages by storey count (2 and 3 storeys).
Athena Developer (Athena Company) — the same developer as the neighbouring, already-completed Larimar Villas; for Phuket real estate this is still a debut brand, despite the company’s 20+ years of experience in other industries.
This is off-plan: construction completion is slated for February 2028.
The structure is mixed, as with most landed projects on the island: the house can belong to a foreigner, while the land is usually registered via an assignment agreement. We verify this for the specific villa.
From ~8.8 km to Karon to about half an hour to Nai Harn — Larimar Vista is not a beachfront project, a car is required.
Yes, the developer projects around 6% per year. This is a marketing benchmark at the off-plan stage — the format has no occupancy history of its own yet.
Larimar Villas is a larger community (35 villas) whose first phase is already completed and occupied, with a lower entry point (from ~$526,782). Larimar Vista is more intimate (11 villas), more spacious in its layouts, and still fully off-plan.
Yes, the unit stays yours. Inside a managed rental program the number of owner-stay nights is capped by the contract — we go through the exact terms for this project before you book.
~6% developer projection — that is a projection, not a guarantee: actual income depends on occupancy, season and running costs. We model it for the specific unit before the deal.
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.
