The Pano Baan Suan Loch Palm: villas in Kathu

The Pano Baan Suan Loch Palm: golf-side villas in Kathu

The Pano Baan Suan Loch Palm is being developed by MBK Real Estate, the property arm of the Thai MBK group. The estate covers about 30 rai of land beside the fairways of Loch Palm Golf Club in Kathu and holds only 28 villas. It is not a standard housing estate: homes sit on generous plots, each with its own pool and garden, and the layouts are planned for larger families, including households with grandparents living in.

What sets it apart from other Kathu projects is the developer's link to the golf courses themselves. Residents get convenient access to two clubs, Loch Palm and Red Mountain, and the homes look out over the lake, the fairways and forested hills. According to Keller Henson, completion is planned for Q4 2026.

The project suits buyers looking for a permanent home in the green, quieter centre of Phuket rather than a holiday apartment by the beach.

Villa types

The developer offers five villa types. The first phase released the two largest designs, with living areas of more than 700 and more than 500 sq m, and the second phase adds three more.

3-bedroom villa, 350 sq m

Three bedrooms, three bathrooms and parking for two cars. This is the most compact home on the estate, priced from 32.9 million THB.

4-bedroom villa, 450 sq m

Four bedrooms, four bathrooms and space for three cars. Prices start from 44 million THB.

4-bedroom villa, 550 sq m

Four bedrooms, five bathrooms, parking for four cars and a separate multi-purpose room that can become a study or a playroom. Priced from 56.9 million THB.

Estate facilities

The architecture relies on large glazed openings and cross ventilation: the living spaces open onto the terrace and pool, while high ceilings and daylight keep the house cooler. Finishes were chosen with the island's humid climate in mind.

• gated grounds with round-the-clock security
• CCTV surveillance
• covered parking spaces
• landscaped common areas and gardens
• a private pool at every villa

The Kathu area

Kathu lies in the centre of Phuket, between Phuket Town and the west coast. It has no beach of its own, but it offers plenty of greenery, several golf courses and far less tourist bustle than Patong. Songklanagarind Hospital, international schools and large shopping malls are close by, which makes the district one of the most practical choices for families living on the island all year.

Purchase terms

Payments follow the build: 2% on booking, 28% on signing the contract, then 15% each after the foundations, the structure, the roof and walls and the interior finishing, and 10% on registration. Foreign buyers hold the land on a 30-year registered lease with two renewals, while Thai nationals and companies can buy freehold. The maintenance fee is 35 THB per sq wah, paid 24 months in advance.
