Shambhala Grand Villa: villas in Bang Tao

Shambhala Grand Villa: three pool villas in Bang Tao

Shambhala Grand Villa is a very small project in Cherngtalay, in the Bang Tao area: just three villas with private pools. Construction was completed in January 2023, and the houses are fully furnished and ready to move into. The developer is not named in public sources, so we check the plot history and title documents separately before every deal.

What sets it apart from neighbouring estates is scale: there is no years-long construction site and no dozens of neighbours. The villas are single storey, with high pitched roofs in a tropical style, and living rooms open straight onto the pool through sliding glass doors. The format suits elderly parents and families with young children who prefer to avoid stairs. Plot sizes differ a lot between the three houses, from 240 to 581 m², so a buyer can choose between a compact garden and a large green plot.

Villa types

According to FazWaz, the project has two and three bedroom villas, each with three bathrooms and a private pool. Inside is an open living, dining and kitchen area, en-suite bedrooms, and in some houses a bathtub by a window overlooking the garden.

Three bedroom villa

About 138 m² of living space on plots of 240 and 375 m². One villa is listed at 21.9M ฿ held through a Thai company; the same format under foreign ownership is listed at 35M ฿.

Two bedroom villa

About 210 m² on the project's largest plot of 581 m², with an open view. Price on request.

Facilities

• Private pool and terrace with sun loungers at every villa
• 24-hour security and CCTV
• One parking space per house
• Fully furnished
• Pets allowed

The area

Bang Tao is one of the best-served areas on the west coast: a long beach, the Laguna resort with golf and lagoon-side jogging paths, Boat Avenue and Porto de Phuket shopping centres and restaurants and cafes for every taste. HeadStart international school is nearby, and hospitals and the airport are an easy drive, which is why people live here all year round, not just in high season.

Buying terms

A foreigner can own the villa building in their own name, while the land is taken on a 30-year lease with renewal or through a Thai company. The structure also affects the asking price: the company option is noticeably cheaper. This is a resale purchase; the standard transfer fee is 2% of the appraised value, and the split of costs is set in the contract.
