A bay between Patong and Surin with a quieter, family-oriented beach town and a steep headland of branded hillside villas and condos to the south. The stock splits between foreign-quota condos on the flat and leasehold sea-view villas on the slopes; the headland projects trade on the view, and access roads there are steep enough to matter for guests.

Daily rental for stays under 30 nights falls under Thailand’s Hotel Act and generally needs a hotel licence or a qualifying exemption. Brixfox never claims a listing is licensed for short-term letting; every listing carries the warning and the building’s or estate’s position must be verified before underwriting nightly income.
Foreign buyers own condominiums freehold within a building’s 49% foreign quota; villas are held on a registered 30-year leasehold or through a Thai company. The ownership route changes what a yield is worth, and it is shown per listing.
Many listings are geocoded to an area or neighbourhood centroid rather than the exact plot (recorded per listing as location precision), so distances and map positions here are approximate.
Matched on the listing's stated area; a home described as two areas can appear under both. Prices in USD as listed.
