Samui Properties
Thailand's third largest island, with an area of 228km² and a population of 50,000, Koh Samui’s turquoise waters, exquisite beaches, balmy breezes and exotic and vibrant culture have so captivated the world that luxury property for sale on Koh Samui grossed more than 800 million baht in 2007.
With a 52-week holiday season that offers potential rental yields of 7-10%, Koh Samui property is forecast to exceed 20% capital growth year on year for the next 5 to 10 years. Property investments on Koh Samui range from luxurious villas in both secluded and beach-front locations to value-for-money condominiums. Those who've purchased properties on Koh Samui for a second home or to diversify their property investment portfolio have found that Thailand’s boutique island not only offers a route to financial and personal freedom, but a luxurious tropical resort lifestyle the likes of which they never imagined.
The exceptional privately owned international Koh Samui Airport makes the island easily accessible, and more mid-haul international routes are planned for 2009 to keep pace with the annual 9.6% growth in tourist numbers. Meanwhile, Angthong Marine Park, the legendary Koh Phangan with its full moon parties, and Koh Tao, one of the best dive sites in Asia, are only a short boat trip away.
