An Andaman sea view is the most paid-for option on Phuket’s condo market: identical layouts in the same building differ by 20–40% in price purely on what the window shows. Justifiably so — view units rent first and sell first.
This collection gathers catalog projects with genuine view units (not a “sea glimpse” from the corner of a balcony). The cards note which buildings and floors face the water.

The main risk of a view unit is future construction in front of your windows. Check not the current view but the zoning of the land between your building and the sea: the area’s height limits, who owns the plots, what is filed for construction. On the slopes of Kamala, Karon and Rawai, terrain protects the view better than any promise — a unit higher up the hill cannot be built out.
In a typical project the view premium grows 1–3% per floor, corner panoramic units price above linear ones, and a full water view versus a side view is a difference measured in tens of percent. The resale rule: buy the best view your budget carries — on the secondary market the view premium recovers faster than the size premium.
A sea-view photo is what wins the click in a rental listing. View units hold rates 15–30% higher and book more consistently in high season. In rental-pool projects the view premium gets diluted by the common pot — if you are buying for the pool, overpaying for the best view in the building makes less sense.
View units in new projects start around $150–200K in emerging areas and $250–400K in established ones. The premium over an identical unit without the view is typically 20–40%.
There are no guarantees — there are zoning and terrain. The safest views are from slopes and high floors near the sea: physically hard to block. We assess view risk for every project in its card.
If you must choose one — beach proximity gives steadier occupancy, the view gives a higher rate. The ideal is a view unit within walking distance of the beach; such projects exist in this collection, but they are few and go first.
| Type | Units tracked | Median price |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 12 | ~$130,063 |
| 1 bedroom | 14 | ~$140,300 |
| 2 bedrooms | 9 | ~$766,000 |
Calculated from 35 unit-mix rows in our catalog; medians refresh with every update.
Our catalog currently tracks 30 projects — condos with genuine sea-view units: 26 condominiums, 4 condo-hotels. 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 ~$90 793 (Utopia Karon); the median entry is ~$147 799, and the median price per square metre is ~$4 291/m². Medians are steadier than averages: a single ultra-luxury lot cannot skew them.
13 projects are under construction and 17 are completed and occupied. Completions are spread as follows: 2026 — 4 projects, 2027 — 5 projects, 2028 — 4 projects. The closer the handover, the smaller the waiting discount — the lowest prices historically belong to early phases.
Prices by unit type (entry and catalog median): studios — from ~$90 793, median ~$130 063 (12 listings); 1-bedroom units — from ~$105 652, median ~$140 300 (14 listings); 2-bedroom units — from ~$179 000, median ~$766 000 (9 listings).
23 of 30 projects put the beach within walking distance (~1 km); 29 offer a managed rental program or pool; 30 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 24 developers; the most represented are Banyan Group (Laguna Property) (3 projects), Art House Group (3 projects), Banyan Group (Angsana Laguna Phuket) (2 projects), Billfishing Phuket Co., Ltd. (2 projects). Developer diversity reduces risk — compare delivery track records, not just prices; every developer has its own page in the catalog.
