Manik Meadows: villas in Bang Tao

Manik Meadows: five family villas at the end of a quiet lane

Manik Meadows is a collection of 5 two-storey villas in the Manik area of Cherng Talay, in inland Si Sunthon. The enclave sits at the very end of a no-through road, so there is no passing traffic. Architecture and design are by Studio CKP, the team behind Blue Tree, and the houses are built by Lofty Villas Co Ltd.

The style is unusual for Phuket: South American warmth and Portuguese elegance set in a tropical landscape. Warm timber, deep overhangs, arches and plenty of air. The upper floor looks out over the mountains.

Home format

All houses share one size and are designed for families. Only the plot varies, from 616 to 1,070 sq m, with a yard both in front and behind the house.

Four-bedroom villa

4 bedrooms, 599 sq m of house over two floors, private pool, garden, terrace and balconies. Prices start from 37.9M THB for the smallest plot and rise for larger ones.

Timeline

Sources disagree on timing: one portal lists the houses as ready to move in, another gives planned completion in October 2027, with each villa built to order in about 18 months after purchase. We work with the planned date of Q4 2027 and confirm the status of each house with the developer.

Facilities

• 24-hour security and CCTV
• Private pool and garden at every villa
• Parking on the plot
• A fixed monthly fee for common area upkeep
• All kinds of pets allowed

The area: Manik and Bang Neow

Manik is the rural side of Cherng Talay, with fields, hills and small farms. Bang Neow reservoir, the Niran equestrian centre, a yoga studio and a sauna are nearby. Boat Avenue, Robinson, Blue Tree and HeadStart school are a few minutes by car, and Bang Tao beach is a short drive.

Who Manik Meadows suits

Unlike the compact villas around Laguna, this is a big house on a big plot for a family with children and dogs. It suits buyers who want an international school and Cherng Talay shops close by, but with quiet and a view of hills rather than the next fence.

Buying terms

The plan quoted by portals: deposit on booking, 35% on signing, 25% after the superstructure, 20% after topping out and 20% at registration and transfer. A foreign buyer can own the house and hold the land through a long-term lease or a Thai company.
