Ko Kaew is the east coast marina belt: Boat Lagoon with its boatyard, Royal Phuket Marina with waterfront residences and the BISP school next door. No beaches — but yachts, a school and 15 minutes to town: the area is bought by school families and boat owners, so demand runs year-round and barely depends on the tourist season.

Calculated from 7 unit-mix rows in our catalog; medians refresh with every update.
Our catalog currently tracks 8 projects in Ko Kaew: 7 villa estates, 1 mixed-use project. This is a live market snapshot — the page rebuilds with every catalog update, so the numbers below are current as of the date in the header.
New-build entry starts from ~$372 040 (Burasiri Koh Kaew); the median entry is ~$899 467, and the median price per square metre is ~$2 558/m². Medians are steadier than averages: a single ultra-luxury lot cannot skew them.
5 projects are under construction and 3 are completed and occupied. Completions are spread as follows: 2025 — 1 project, 2026 — 1 project, 2029 — 1 project. The closer the handover, the smaller the waiting discount — the lowest prices historically belong to early phases.
Completed and occupied: Burasiri Koh Kaew, Crown Estate, Royal Phuket Marina. Under construction: Zenithy La Ville, Casa de Monte (2029), Fortuna Lakeside, Botanica Majestia (2025), Canopy Hills (2026). Every project page in the catalog carries unit prices, instalment terms, honest pros and cons, and an FAQ.
Prices by unit type (entry and catalog median): 3-bedroom units — from ~$372 040, median ~$899 467 (6 listings).
0 of 8 projects put the beach within walking distance (~1 km); 6 offer a managed rental program or pool; 0 have sea-view units. For investors these are the three yield filters that matter most: walkable beach and managed rentals historically deliver the best occupancy.
The slice covers 8 developers; the most represented are Sansiri (1 project), Soken Development Group (1 project), Royal Phuket Marina (2002) Co., Ltd. (1 project), Zenithy Development (1 project). Developer diversity reduces risk — compare delivery track records, not just prices; every developer has its own page in the catalog.
Two season-proof anchors: the BISP school (families rent for the school year) and the Boat Lagoon/RPM marinas (yacht owners and crews). Occupancy is steady, vacancy minimal — a classic cash-flow asset.
Near the school — stable long lets to family tenants. On the water (RPM) — a premium for the berth and canal view, with a yachting audience. School-side entry is cheaper; waterfront carries the higher ticket and status.
Thepkrasattri Road traffic at rush hour and no swimming beach. For the sea it’s Panwa or the west coast; most residents accept that — the area is chosen for function, not holidays.
