Platinum Residence Park — Villas in Rawai

Platinum Residence Park: pool villas in Rawai

Platinum Residence Park is a gated community of 24 villas in Rawai, in the south of Phuket. It was completed in 2008, so this is an established neighbourhood with mature palms and gardens rather than a building site. Every villa has a private pool on a fenced plot, and the estate has a shared leisure area.

The houses share one style: light facades, blue tiled roofs, poolside terraces and tropical planting along the walls. Inside are spacious living rooms and bedrooms opening to the pool, and most villas are sold furnished.

The area

Rawai covers the southern tip of the island and has long been a residential area for expats rather than a holiday resort. It has a seafood market and waterfront cafes, supermarkets, gyms, yoga studios and a relaxed pace. Nai Harn, one of the most beautiful beaches in Phuket, Ya Nui cove and the Promthep Cape viewpoint are nearby. Boats leave Rawai pier for Coral Island and beyond. Chalong circle gives easy access to Phuket Town and the malls.

Buying terms

All villas are complete, so deals are resales, and houses are usually sold furnished. A foreigner can own the house, with the land on a long-term registered lease or via a Thai company. We check the tenure of a specific villa before any deposit.

Transaction costs

On transfer of ownership, the standard fee is 2% of the appraised value, and the seller pays 3.3% specific business tax or 0.5% stamp duty. Registering a land lease costs 1% of the total rent for the term. The split of costs is set in the contract.
