A condominium by the Boat Avenue retail cluster — phase 1 is already delivered
The Aqua — condo project, Bang Tao · Laguna: entry from ~$262,219. Beach: Bang Tao, ~2 km. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~8% developer projection. Phase 1 delivered, move-in ready since December 2025.
The Aqua is a 102-unit condominium in two six-storey buildings at the very heart of Boat Avenue, the largest retail and dining cluster in the north of Phuket. Phase 1 has already been delivered and is move-in ready since December 2025 — a rare case in this segment where part of a project can be judged in person rather than only from renders.
Location is The Aqua’s main advantage: Boat Avenue, with its cafes, supermarket and entertainment, is about 180 meters away, a 2-minute walk. Bang Tao beach is roughly 2 km away — transport is required, but all everyday amenities are within walking distance. This format suits buyers who prioritize the convenience of living here and now over a sea view from the window.
Entry into the project starts from ~$262,219 for a 1-bedroom unit. In the same Bang Tao area, the closest neighbours by price are Canvas (cheaper) and Skypark Elara Lakelands (pricier) — The Aqua occupies the middle ground, but wins through a delivered first phase and a location two steps from Boat Avenue. Pricing for 2–3 bedroom units is not publicly disclosed — available on request. The developer projects a rental yield of around 8% per year — one of the higher benchmarks among condos in the area, though this remains a marketing estimate rather than a contractual guarantee.
Phase 1 is already delivered — pure off-plan risk is lower here than for most projects at this sales stage, since part of the complex is actually built and occupied. The developer, Boat Pattana Co., Ltd., has operated on the island since 2009 and owns Boat Avenue itself — a rare case where a residential developer simultaneously manages the neighbouring commercial infrastructure, reducing the risk of a mismatch between “housing” and “services nearby.”
Who it suits: a buyer for whom walkable access to cafes, a supermarket and services matters more than direct beach access, and who values being able to see a delivered phase before buying. Before reservation we check the actual condition of the delivered phase 1, the readiness status of phase 2 infrastructure (if still under construction), and detailed pricing for 2-bedroom-plus units.

The developer information in this listing states: freehold (49% quota) / 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.

Boat Pattana Co., Ltd. — a Bang Tao/Cherng Talay developer active since 2009, owner of the Boat Avenue retail cluster, and author of 30+ island projects including Boat Avenue Residence, Chardonnay Nai Harn and Sea Theatre Rawai.
Phase 1 has been move-in ready since December 2025 — this is not pure off-plan, part of the complex can already be seen in person.
Freehold is available within the standard 49% foreign quota for condominiums, or leasehold beyond it — the exact status of a specific unit is confirmed during selection.
The developer states a ~8% per year benchmark — one of the higher forecasts among Bang Tao condos. This is a marketing estimate; actual performance for the already-delivered phase 1 is worth requesting separately.
Boat Avenue is about 180 m away, a 2-minute walk. Bang Tao beach is roughly 2 km away, requiring transport.
The closest neighbours by price in the catalog are Canvas (cheaper) and Skypark Elara Lakelands (pricier). The Aqua stands out because phase 1 is already delivered, and the developer is the same Boat Pattana that owns Boat Avenue itself — a minimal logistical gap between the infrastructure and the housing.
~8% 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.
