A boutique complex of 24 smart villas near Laguna — freehold, with pricing that depends heavily on phase and villa size
The Residence by Andaman Asset — villa project, Bang Tao · Laguna: entry from ~$746,749. Beach: Bang Tao / Laguna, ~6.5 km by car. Ownership: freehold. No rental program at this project. Phase 1 — completed.
The Residence by Andaman Asset is a small complex of 24 three-storey villas from developer Andaman Asset Solution Co., Ltd. in Thep Krasattri (Thalang), off the tourist strip but within reasonable reach of Laguna’s infrastructure — golf, international schools, the hospital. A notable plus for this format is an unusual layout: a separate ~148 sqm apartment on the ground floor (can be rented separately or used to house staff or parents), a living area opening onto the pool on the second floor, and bedrooms on the third. Smart-home tech with voice control and intelligent lighting comes as standard.
The complex sits in Thep Krasattri (Thalang) — off the tourist strip, but within reasonable walking distance of local infrastructure: Thalang Wittaya School is about 250 m away (3 minutes on foot), Dutch Milk Center is 390 m, and a 7-Eleven is 700 m. HKT Airport is about 14.8 km away (~18 minutes by car). In terms of distance to the sea, the complex is honestly positioned as “near Laguna,” not “on the beach”: about 6.5 km to Bang Tao by car — a typical distance for this part of Thalang, but not something you can market as beachfront or even beachwalk. In the same Bang Tao / Cherng Talay area, our catalog also lists ANSAYA — also a villa complex in an inland location, but smaller in scale (6 villas vs. 24) and without smart-home features.
The pricing picture is layered: entry into new latest-phase villas is from ~$746,749, while earlier-phase villas of the same complex trade on the resale market at ฿9.7–21.5M THB (roughly $275,000–609,000). The difference comes down to phase, size and villa condition — we always cross-check the current listing before showing a price to a client.
Freehold is the second notable plus: villas in this part of the island are usually offered to foreigners only as long-term land leasehold, whereas here full ownership is stated. The registration scheme is worth examining separately — freehold structures for foreigners in Thailand almost always require either a Thai co-owner/company or a specific arrangement, and the details are worth verifying in the contract, not in the marketing copy.
The developer is Andaman Asset Solution Co., Ltd., whose portfolio also includes The Victory, Trinity Village, Trinity Prime, and Residence Prime in Thalang. Phase 1 of the complex has already been handed over, and the Prime Villas phase is in final finishing, expected around late 2025. There is no formal managed rental program from the developer — if the deal’s economics rely on rental income, it’s more reasonable to rely on private-rental statistics for comparable villas in the area than on marketing promises.
As an agency we work from villacarte’s current price list, but in this particular project the gap between phases is significant enough that before showing a price to a client, we always cross-check the specific unit: phase, area, floor, and status (available for sale, or already a sold resale lot on another portal). This is a case where price due diligence isn’t a formality — it’s a necessity.

The developer information in this listing states: freehold. 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.

Andaman Asset Solution Co., Ltd. — a developer specializing in smart villas in Thalang; the portfolio also includes The Victory, Trinity Village, Trinity Prime, and Residence Prime.
Phase 1 has already been handed over. The Prime Villas phase is in final finishing, expected around late 2025.
Freehold — unusual for this segment, where foreigners are typically offered only leasehold on the land. Freehold applies to the development within a permitted structure; we’ll walk through the registration details in a consultation.
About 6.5 km to Bang Tao/Laguna by car — not walkable, despite the "near Laguna" positioning.
There is no formal managed rental program from the developer. For yield estimates, it’s worth relying on private-rental statistics for comparable villas in the area.
There is no income guarantee — the project has no rental program. The unit is let privately or through an outside management company.
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.
