Saturdays Residence: apartments in Rawai

Saturdays Residence: a condominium with character in southern Phuket

Saturdays Residence was built by The Attitude Club and completed in September 2016. It is a low-rise condominium of 119 apartments over four floors on Soi Saturday, a lane off Sai Yuan Road in Rawai. The name refers to the mood of a slow Saturday morning, and the whole concept is built around an unhurried pace of life.

The facades make it easy to tell apart from its neighbours: the buildings are painted a dark, almost black tone and wrapped in balconies with timber slats. Long pools lined with palms run between the blocks, and at night the lighting turns the courtyard into something close to a resort. Apartments use earthy colours, natural textures and European kitchens. While most Rawai condominiums look like standard white blocks, this one is all about design, so it appeals to buyers who care about atmosphere as much as floor area.

Scale is the other difference. With more than a hundred apartments, the complex can support what small ten-unit buildings cannot: a restaurant, spa, library, meeting room and a proper gym. Yet it rises only four floors, so it never feels like a tower block.

Units are sold fully furnished on the resale market, with views over the pool, garden or hills, and some upper units see the sea.

The area

Sai Yuan is one of the most lived-in streets in Rawai, lined with cafes, bakeries, gyms, yoga studios, supermarkets and kindergartens. International nurseries, language schools, clinics and pharmacies are nearby. Rawai beach with its seafood restaurants and boat pier for nearby islands is close, and for swimming people go to Nai Harn, Ya Nui and Kata Noi. Promthep Cape with the island's best known sunset is nearby too, and Wiset Road leads to Chalong Circle and Phuket Town.

Buying terms

Saturdays Residence is a registered condominium, so a foreigner can buy a unit freehold in their own name within the foreign quota. Some units are sold in the Thai quota, and listings state this. Resale payment is made at the Land Office transfer. Pets are only allowed with permission from the juristic office.
