Karon Butterfly — Apartments in Karon

Karon Butterfly: a low-rise condominium in Karon

Karon Butterfly was built by SUER Real Estate and completed in 2015. The project covers about 8,000 m², with five three-storey buildings set around a large pool and tropical garden. It holds 166 residences. Low buildings and plenty of greenery give it the feel of a resort rather than an urban housing block.

The complex runs with hotel management, including a reception, restaurant, bar and shuttle. Owners can live in their unit or let it through the management company.

The Karon area

Karon sits on the west coast between Patong and Kata. Its main asset is a long sandy beach of almost three kilometres. The area is calmer than Patong and popular with families. The viewpoint over the three southern bays and Dino Park are nearby, with cafes, restaurants and shops within walking distance. Phuket Town and Patong are a drive away.

Buying terms

The building is a registered condominium, and foreigners buy freehold within the 49% quota. Some units on the market are held by Thai owners or companies, with different terms. Before any deal we check the tenure of the unit and any outstanding service charges.

Investment outlook

Karon welcomes tourists all year, so units here are let both short and long term. A modest entry price and hotel services make the building a clear option for a first purchase in Phuket. Sources do not state a yield, so we calculate it for each unit.
