Villas on a private lake in Bang Tao with private pools and waterfront lots
Serrana is a complex of 20 villas on the shore of its own lake in the Bang Tao area, developed by Arna Development. The project comprises three house types: Lakeside A (4 bedrooms), Lakeside B (3 bedrooms) and the two-storey Lakeview C (3+1 bedrooms). Entry is from ~$1,379,615. Part of the pipeline (Phase 1.2) is already ready for move-in, while the second stage is still under construction.
Serrana sits inland, in the Bang Tao/Si Sunthon zone, next to Laguna Golf Phuket. The beach at Bang Tao is about 6.5 km away, meaning a car is essential — this is not a beach lifestyle but a “golf-and-lake” format typical of the district’s inland quarters. In the same Bang Tao area, our catalog also lists Rise Villas — villas at the same distance from the sea (~6.5 km) but without a body of water of their own in the project, and Redwood Luxury — closer to the beach (~3.5 km), but without a lake view. Serrana’s key feature is its layout around a private lake: for some villas the water begins right past the terrace.
Entry from ~$1,379,615 places Serrana in the premium segment of Bang Tao, noticeably above nearby district projects with villas from $300–500 thousand. The three house types span a range of areas from ~426 m² (Lakeside B) to ~515 m² (Lakeview C), with plots from 555 to 934 m² depending on type. The payment plan is structured classically: a 500,000 THB deposit, 30% under the agreement, then staged payments tied to construction milestones (foundation, structure, roof, finishing), and a final 10% at title transfer along with furnishing. Rental management is not structured as a separate guaranteed program — the developer only offers a yield projection of around 6% per year.
The project is compact — only 20 villas in total — so no secondary market exists within Serrana itself yet: comparing price per square metre will mean looking at neighbouring complexes in the district rather than resales within the project.
Arna Development is a relatively young company (in the market since 2018), affiliated with Tri Property. We found no public portfolio of delivered projects beyond Serrana, so construction risk here is higher than with developers with a long delivery history. A mitigating factor is that marketing and sales are run by Knight Frank Thailand, an international player for whom reputational risk on the projects it represents is higher than for a local agency. Part of the pipeline (Phase 1.2) is already delivered and occupied — it can be visited and seen in person rather than only in renders.
Who it suits: a buyer who wants a villa with a water view in the prestigious Laguna/Bang Tao surroundings and is willing to accept distance from the beach. Those for whom walking distance to the sea is essential should look at projects closer to the coastline.
Our role as an agency is to verify the current completion schedule for Phase 1 with the developer, confirm the actual leasehold registration structure for a specific lot, and arrange a viewing of the already-delivered Phase 1.2 before a decision.

Our catalog currently tracks 123 projects in Bang Tao · Laguna; new-build entry level here: from ~$93,683. Serrana’s entry price is about 97% above the district median — the project sits in the upper segment of the location.
The median is calculated from the “from” prices of all catalog projects in the district and refreshes with every update.

From ~$1,379,615. The project comprises 20 villas of three types: Lakeside A (4 bedrooms, house ~501 m²), Lakeside B (3 bedrooms, ~426 m²) and the two-storey Lakeview C (3+1 bedrooms, ~515 m²).
Arna Development, in the Phuket market since 2018. Marketing and sales for the project are handled by the international agency Knight Frank Thailand.
Phase 1.2 is already ready for move-in. The second stage (Phase 1) is under construction, with the developer citing 10–24 months.
About 6.5 km to Bang Tao — by car, not walkable.
Freehold is available to the Thai side; for foreigners the structure is leasehold 30+30+30 years.
The developer projects around 6% per year. This is the developer’s own estimate — there is no independent statistics for the project yet, as there are too few villas and part of it is still undelivered.
[Rise Villas](/villacarte/catalog/rise-villas) is also in Bang Tao at the same distance from the beach (~6.5 km), but without a lake of its own in the project. Serrana stands out for its waterfront lots and a compact pipeline of just 20 villas.
