A 13-villa club community in Chalong with oversized pools and smart-home tech — off-plan, close to handover
Lavish Estates is a club villa community of 13 homes in the Chalong area, currently under construction. The complex is split into two phases with 3- and 5-bedroom villas, each with an extra-length private pool and an automated monitoring system, smart-home fittings and walk-in closets. Handover is slated for end of 2025. Entry is from ~$1,645,751.
Chalong is a southern residential area of the island with well-developed infrastructure for families: about 5 minutes by car to the BCIS international school and around 10 minutes to Chalong Pier, where boats depart for the surrounding islands. The nearest beaches — Kata and Rawai — are 15–20 minutes by car, about 9–11 km away: Lavish Estates is not a beachfront project but a quiet residential enclave in the heart of the island’s south. In the same Chalong area our catalog also has the already-completed Larimar Villas — a noticeably more affordable villa format at entry (from ~$526,782), useful for comparing scale and finish level.
Entry from ~$1,645,751 is one of the highest thresholds among villa projects in Chalong in our catalog, noticeably above the ready Larimar Villas and the club-style La Vista Villas (from $1,136,891). The difference is explained by positioning: extra-length pools, automated monitoring, smart toilets and walk-in closets are details that in this price segment usually indicate a higher level of finish and engineering. Rental is projected by the developer at around 7% per year — higher than neighbouring projects in the area claim, but this is still a marketing benchmark without an operating history of its own, since the complex is still under construction.
Elite Manor Co., Ltd. is a Chalong-based developer for which Lavish Estates is the only publicly confirmed project: we found no large track record of delivering past projects. Construction of phases 1 and 2 is slated for completion by end of 2025 — the standard off-plan risk here is a possible slip in timing, typical of most under-construction villa complexes on the island. The tech features (automated pool monitoring, smart toilets) require separate verification of feasibility and maintenance cost after handover — such systems on Phuket don’t always run trouble-free in their first years of operation.
Who it suits: a buyer willing to pay a premium for a higher level of tech fit-out and oversized pools in a compact club format, for whom beach access isn’t a priority. Those for whom a lower entry point in the same area matters more should compare with the ready Larimar Villas.
Our role as an agency is to verify the current handover schedule for phases 1 and 2, confirm how the automated pool and smart-home systems will operate after the warranty period, and check the ownership structure and reservation agreement before the first payment.

Elite Manor Co., Ltd. — a Chalong-based developer specialising in compact club villas. Lavish Estates is the company’s only confirmed project; we found no public portfolio of other completed projects.
Off-plan: handover of phases 1 and 2 is slated for end of 2025.
The structure is mixed, as with most landed projects on the island: the house can belong to a foreigner, while the land is usually registered via an assignment agreement. We verify this for the specific villa.
About 9 km to Kata and 11 km to Nai Harn — Lavish Estates is not a beachfront project, a car is required.
Yes, the developer projects around 7% per year — higher than some neighbouring Chalong projects. This is a marketing benchmark at the sales stage; the project has no occupancy history of its own yet.
The main difference is extra-long pools with automated monitoring and smart-home fittings in every villa. For comparison: the ready [Larimar Villas](/villacarte/catalog/larimar-villas) in the same area is noticeably cheaper (from ~$526,782), but without this level of tech fit-out and with a more modest projected yield.
