About the project

The Element is a condo complex in Kamala with 278 units in phase 1 across 7 floors, with layouts ranging from compact 29.87 sqm studios to units with a private terrace pool at 92–124 sqm. The project is under construction now: as of this update it’s at the roof-installation stage, with completion stated for 2027.

Location and surroundings

Kamala is a quiet, family-oriented area on Phuket’s west coast, set apart from Patong’s dense resort development yet only 10 minutes by car from both Patong and the Laguna resort cluster. Kamala beach is about 1.5 km away (roughly 3 minutes by car), Kajonkiet International School is about 15 minutes, Bangkok Hospital Phuket about 30 minutes, and HKT airport roughly 42 minutes. In the same area, our catalog also has more finished, closer-to-the-sea options — such as Coralina Kamala and Kamala Falls — both nearer the water, while The Element competes on layout variety and a lower entry price.

Economics and pricing

The entry studio from 29.87 sqm costs from ~$165,552 — one of the most affordable condo entries in Kamala, cheaper than the neighboring Coralina Kamala (from ~$156,595, a close match) and notably more affordable than Kamala Falls (from ~$396,566). The line then grows to 2-bedroom units from 57.25 sqm at ~$213,228, while the top units at 92–124 sqm with a private terrace pool run from ~$521,538 to ~$702,496 — a rare “condo with your own pool” format at this price tier for the area.

The developer’s installment plan is interest-free and tied to construction milestones: 45% on signing, 15% each on structure and MEP systems completion, with the final 25% due on unit handover. Villacarte cites a projected yield of ~6% per year with a payback of roughly 11 years — a planning estimate, not a guaranteed income.

Stage, developer and risks

The project is being built under The Element by Anocha brand (developer: Phuket Plus Co., Ltd.); as of this update, construction is at the roof-installation stage — active but not yet finished, so the usual off-plan risks (handover delays, changes to final finishes) still apply. Phase 1’s density, 278 units across 7 floors, is higher than the boutique villa estates nearby, worth weighing if privacy matters more to you than entry price alone. For us this means the standard checks: permit status for the current construction stage, the actual pace of work on site, and installment terms for the specific unit — we’ll walk you through it when you reach out, and send the current construction status the same day.

Legal deal structure

How ownership at The Element is structured

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.

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.

When buying leasehold

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.

Before the next payment

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.

What installment plan is available?

An interest-free developer installment plan: 45% on signing, 15% on structure completion, 15% on MEP systems completion, 25% on unit handover.

Freehold or leasehold?

Both are available within the building’s foreign ownership quota.

What rental yield can I expect?

Villacarte cites a projected yield of ~6% per year with a payback of roughly 11 years — an estimate, not a developer guarantee.

How far is it from the beach and amenities?

~1.5 km (about 3 minutes by car) to Kamala beach; Patong and the Laguna resort cluster are about 10 minutes by car; HKT airport is roughly 42 minutes away.

Can I live in the unit myself?

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.

How do I transfer the purchase money from abroad?

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.
