When buying freehold
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.

A compact 8-villa community by Regent Land in Si Sunthon near Bang Tao
The Regent Villas — villa project, Bang Tao · Laguna: entry from ~$685,756, from $2,007 per sqm. Beach: Bang Tao, ~4 km. Both freehold and leasehold available. Yield: ~6% developer-projected yield. Phase 2 completed September 2025.
The Regent Villas is a small 8-villa community by developer Regent Land Co., Ltd. in the Si Sunthon area near Bang Tao, with 3- and 4-bedroom layouts on plots of 233.8–290.88 sqm and a house area of around 341.7 sqm. Phase 2 was completed in September 2025 — this is already a finished project, not one under construction.
The Regent Villas sits inland in Si Sunthon — a low-density inland zone typical of Phuket’s interior, where instead of a beachfront address the buyer gets quiet and a more generous plot for the same money. The nearest restaurants and bars are about 500 metres away, and 1.9 km further out are two of the area’s best-known retail clusters: Boat Avenue and Porto de Phuket, home to supermarkets, cafés and everyday services. Bang Tao beach is about 4 km away, Layan is 5.5 km — a distance that’s real for walking but comfortable by car (8–10 minutes).
The format is a gated 8-villa plot without larger complexes crowding right up to the fence line, which for many villa buyers matters more than direct beach access: less noise and less transient tourist traffic. Infrastructure is limited to the plot itself — a private pool, terrace and landscaping; there is no shared clubhouse, gym or reception for the complex, and that’s worth understanding upfront rather than discovering after the purchase.
Entry is from ~$685,756 for a 3-bedroom villa, with a house of around 341.7 sqm on a plot of 233.8–290.88 sqm. For comparison, the same Bang Tao area has Bougainvillea by Sirisa at a similar price point (from ~$683,305) and The Menara, slightly pricier (from ~$747,608) — both show that the 3+ bedroom villa segment from private developers in the Bang Tao/Thalang area generally sits in the $650–800K entry range.
Villacarte’s projected yield is around 6% per year on managed rental, but the specific program, operator and profit-split terms are not disclosed by villacarte — these need to be confirmed separately with the developer. CAM fee, sinking fund and electricity tariff are not stated on any of the checked sources, which is typical for small villa communities without a single management company: plot and pool upkeep costs likely fall on the owner rather than a shared fund. For a buyer this means more freedom (no need to coordinate renovations or rentals with a management company), but also more responsibility for maintaining the villa independently.
Regent Land Co., Ltd. is not a major market player: the company’s public portfolio is limited to The Regent Villas and the neighbouring The Regent Villa Pasak villa phase. It’s worth clearly distinguishing this from The Regent Bangtao — a completed condotel in our catalog built by a different developer, VIP Thailand Group; the shared “Regent” name doesn’t imply a shared developer or operating history.
Phase 2 of The Regent Villas is already completed (September 2025), so the usual off-plan construction-delay risks don’t apply — a specific villa can be inspected in person before purchase. At the same time, the developer’s small scale means an independent reputation check across dozens of delivered projects isn’t possible: Regent Land doesn’t yet have the long track record that large public developers like Sansiri or Banyan Group have. Before a deal we separately verify title documents for the specific villa, the real condition of the finish and the plot, and the details of the rental program — the developer’s claimed 6% yearly projection should be treated as a benchmark, not a contractual guarantee.
Who The Regent Villas suits: a buyer looking for a finished villa with its own pool in a quiet inland area who isn’t willing to wait years for an off-plan handover, but who also isn’t expecting resort-level infrastructure on the scale of larger branded complexes. The developer pays the deal commission — the price doesn’t change for the buyer, and we handle document checks and support from reservation through to title registration.

The developer information in this listing states: freehold / leasehold. This is the project-level starting point, not a legal opinion on a particular unit. The contract, title, foreign quota and seller authority must be verified before reservation.
A foreign-quota condominium is registered in the buyer’s name. Purchase funds must enter Thailand with the correct purpose so the receiving bank can issue the foreign-exchange evidence used at the Land Office.
A foreign buyer may own the structure but cannot directly own Thai land. The land element is normally held through a registered long lease or another lawful structure. Term, renewals, inheritance and resale rights must be explicit in the contract.
Verify the receiving legal entity, construction milestone, payment trigger, delay remedies and the documents the seller must deliver for registration.
This is general information. Structure and taxes depend on the unit, seller and contract; an independent Thai lawyer should complete the final review.
Indicative estimate: yield and the rental model depend on the project, unit and management program. Request an exact projection for a specific unit.

~4 km to Bang Tao beach and ~5.5 km to Layan beach — not walkable, but an 8–10 minute drive.
These are two different projects by two different developers: The Regent Bangtao is a completed condotel by VIP Thailand Group 1.5 km from the beach, while The Regent Villas is a small villa community by Regent Land 4 km from the shore.
Yes, the unit stays yours. Inside a managed rental program the number of owner-stay nights is capped by the contract — we go through the exact terms for this project before you book.
Funds arrive from abroad in foreign currency and the Thai bank issues an FET form. Without it the Land Department will not register freehold to a foreigner, so we agree the amount and payment reference in advance.
