The southern tip of Phuket: Nai Harn's swimming beach and lake, Rawai's long-stay expat village along the seafront road, and the hills between them where most of the villa stock sits. It is a resident and long-stay market more than a tourist one, with a lower entry price than the west coast and a shorter nightly high season.

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 villa described as two areas can appear under both. Prices in USD as listed.
