Greece, Thailand, and Barbados are three very popular luxury villa locations. Sounds like a nice trip to plan. One week in each location for initial scouting of preferred houses and homes should help. There are many factors for each of us and priorities for those criteria will vary. Let’s skim the surface of the waters and touch the mountain clouds from the best luxury villa locations in Thailand.
To be honest, I am biased. Thailand is fantastic. I arrived here 10 years ago to use as a launchpad to discover more of Asia in all directions. I have a simple and comfortable life, not flash. As tens of millions of tourists visit this tropical paradise each year, securing your homestead becomes more expensive.
It is not that Thailand was a secret before today, but Thailand has taken immense action to incentivize foreign investments. There is continuing development and growth in the Phang Nga, Bangkok, and Phuket luxury villas for sale market. Rent a local suite and get a feel for your new neighborhood.
Is the Bangkok nightlife disruptive or attractive? Generally speaking, if you like the address but not the noise, buy on a higher floor. Above the 15th floor, you can expect better breezes for your fresh air. Start your luxury villa viewing in the Sathorn, Ratchada, or Chatuchak districts.
As a remote worker, my office can be anywhere and if there is no outlet, when the battery dies, my work day is complete. Phuket is massive and has a large, vibrant, foreign community with retirees, families, hybrid/remote workers, business owners, and investors.
While Phuket is a big island there is no need to live amongst the nonstop tourist party unless you desire to. Bang Tao, Layan, and Rawai districts have breathtaking views from extravagant pool villas.
Is the silence of nature deafening or music to your ears? Elegant and spacious villas await you in the mountains around Chaing Mai. Private pool villa options with modern kitchens, appliances, picturesque garden views in the foreground of a not-too-distant mountain horizon, and space to breathe in life are waiting for you to call home.
Leasing the land and owning the villa is a familiar contract combination here, as there are property ownership limitations. The Kingdom of Thailand wants to remain Thai but invites your investment. The Treaty of Amity offers Americans the best method of land ownership in Thailand and is not cheap or easy to obtain.
Some elite visa or board of investment company programs can accommodate property ownership. Thailand is highly motivated to improve its GDP and has big incentive programs for data management, finance, and export companies, including long-term visas and work permits.
If your choices have afforded you the ability to meet the expense of a plush home environment, why build it in an environment with anything less than happy, polite, peace-loving neighbors? Not that you intend to part with a piece of heaven on earth, but where will your investment grow more rapidly? Where will your heart grow? Tell you what, Thailand has grown in my heart.
