An eco villa complex with rooftop farms and a wellness centre 5.6 km from Bang Tao
Villa Qabalah — villa project, Bang Tao · Laguna: entry from ~$404,075. Beach: Bang Tao, ~5.6 km. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~6% developer forecast. Completion: phase 1 delivered (May 2024), phase 2 off-plan — 10–24 months from construction start.
Villa Qabalah is a 31-villa complex by developer DNA Collection in the Si Sunthon area, 5.6 km from Bang Tao beach. The first phase is already delivered (May 2024); the second is sold off-plan. It’s an unusual format for the island: the developer leans into sustainability — rooftop farms on every villa, solar panels, and preserved greenery across the grounds.
The complex sits inland, away from the coastline — about 5.6 km from Bang Tao and roughly 17.5 km (~26 minutes by car) from HKT airport. Boat Avenue and Laguna Phuket Golf Club are 10 minutes away by car. This isn’t a project for buyers wanting to walk to the beach: the area is valued for its greenery, quiet, and close-to-nature feel rather than for beachfront position. In the same Bang Tao area, our catalogue also lists Villoft Zen Living and Vinzita Elite Residences — buyers who prioritise proximity to water should compare beach distances across all three.
Entry starts from ~$404,075 for a Moss villa (2 bedrooms, 3 storeys); top-tier Pine villas (4 bedrooms, 1 storey) resell up to $1,035,268 per aggregator data. The average price per sqm in the complex, per aggregator estimates, is around ฿56,000 ($1,500)/sqm. The developer offers an instalment plan on phase 2 villas and states a projected yield of ~6% per year when let out through the management company or independently. No verified source discloses specific CAM fee or sinking fund figures — these need to be confirmed directly with the developer before reservation.
DNA Collection is a relatively young developer (active since 2018), concentrated on this single project in the area; we found no larger portfolio beyond Villa Qabalah. Phase 1 is already delivered and occupied, which lowers the risk for buyers of finished villas, but phase 2 remains off-plan with the island’s typical 10–24-month build time — the usual risk of schedule slippage in the final stage still applies. The lack of a broader developer track record beyond this project is a factor worth weighing when assessing phase 2 delivery reliability.
Who it suits: a buyer who values the eco-focused format (rooftop farms, solar panels, preserved greenery) and is willing to trade beach proximity for a more accessible entry price and an already-finished phase 1. Buyers for whom walking distance to the sea is essential should compare with beachfront Bang Tao projects in our catalogue.
Our role as an agency is to check the current status of phase 2 before reservation, confirm the exact instalment schedule and ownership structure (freehold or leasehold) for the chosen villa, and request CAM fee data from the developer that villacarte itself doesn’t disclose, then support the deal from reservation through title registration. The developer pays the commission — the price stays the same for the buyer.

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.
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.

DNA Collection Co., Ltd. — a developer based in Si Sunthon (Thalang), active since 2018, focused on villas with an emphasis on sustainability.
Phase 1 (finished villas) was delivered in May 2024. Phase 2 is off-plan, with a typical build time of 10–24 months from the start of construction.
Both ownership options are available — freehold and leasehold, structure to be confirmed per villa.
Yes, the developer offers instalments on phase 2 villas; the exact payment schedule is on request.
About 5.6 km — this isn’t a beachfront complex, you’ll need a car or bike to reach the sea.
The focus here is sustainability (rooftop farms, solar panels) and an already-delivered first phase rather than beachfront — buyers wanting sea-view or beach villas in this area should look at other listings in our catalogue.
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 forecast — 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.
