An intimate 18-villa enclave with smart home and EV charging in Thep Krasattri, north of Bang Tao — from ~$592,973
Rungtiva Private Pool Villas is an intimate enclave of 18 single-storey villas with private pools in Thep Krasattri, an inland part of Thalang north of Bang Tao. The format is 3- and 4-bedroom villas on a gated ~8,000 sqm plot, with modern engineering: a smart home system and a personal EV charging station in every villa. The developer, Rungtiva Asset Co., Ltd., has nearly 16 years of history and is based in Songkhla province in southern Thailand.
Thep Krasattri is not a beach area but an infrastructure-focused sub-district of Thalang: there’s no tourist density here, but the UWC Thailand international school and the Thanyapura Phuket sports and medical complex, with its cycling track and rehabilitation center, are close by. That neighborhood makes the area appealing primarily to families with school-age children and to those who want the property for their own residence rather than purely tourist rentals. Bang Tao beach is about 6.5 km away and reachable only by car; HKT Airport is roughly 8.4 km away, which is convenient for owners who fly in and out often.
In the same northern part of the island, we also cover Sana Vista Villas — another intimate villa project, but in the Ban Jo area and with fewer villas. Rungtiva differs in the scale of the enclave (18 villas versus 5) and a notable emphasis on engineering: smart home and a personal EV charger in every villa, a feature far from every Thalang developer offers at this price level.
Entry into the project starts from ~$592,973 for a 3-bedroom villa of ~297 sqm and up, which works out to about $1,936 per square meter. That’s noticeably below coastal villa projects in Bang Tao and Layan, where the price per meter runs several times higher due to proximity to the sea — the difference comes down to distance from the water rather than construction quality. The developer doesn’t openly publish pricing for the 4-bedroom villas; it’s confirmed on request for a specific lot, which is typical for small projects in the early sales stage.
The project’s marketing states a target yield of around 6% per year from rentals. Rungtiva has no pool track record of its own yet — handover hasn’t happened — so the figure should be read as the developer’s expectation rather than a confirmed result. Data on the CAM fee, sinking fund, and other operating costs isn’t publicly disclosed and is confirmed per lot at booking.
Two ownership structures are on offer: freehold via a Thai company, which gives simpler long-term control over the asset, and leasehold for foreign buyers in their own name. The exact registration scheme and renewal terms depend on the specific villa.
Rungtiva Asset Co. has operated in real estate for about 16 years, but the company’s main region of activity is Songkhla in southern Thailand; we found no large public portfolio of delivered projects on Phuket specifically. This appears to be one of the company’s first notable projects on the island, so its delivery pace and quality should be judged more cautiously than developers with a long Phuket track record — a reputation built on the mainland south doesn’t guarantee the same result on the island, where the contractor market and building-materials logistics are different. The project is under construction, and the exact handover schedule is tied to progress on the specific villa.
Who it suits: buyers looking for a private, gated enclave with modern engineering and no coastal premium, who are comfortable driving to the beach. The format is also worth considering for families who value proximity to the international school and Thanyapura’s sports infrastructure. Buyers for whom walking distance to the beach is essential should look at Layan and Bang Tao projects closer to the water — for example, neighboring pages in our catalog for that area.
Our role as an agency is to verify the current construction status for a specific villa, clarify the ownership structure (freehold via a company or leasehold), and send the payment plan terms before any deposit is made.
