Make a Lifestyle Investment in a Koh Chang Villa

Investing in a Siam Royal View Koh Chang villa is buying into the ultimate luxury island lifestyle. Siam Royal View is one of the most exciting beach property developments in Asia and represents an opportunity not to be missed.

Koh Chang is an idyllic tropical island location with shimmering blue seas, pristine sandy beaches and surrounded by rich tropical forest protected by law from over-development.

Siam Royal View Koh Chang is one of the last large beach front land parcels in the prime area of the island. Due to 80% of the island’s surface being national park, land availability on Koh Chang is very limited. Availability of land on the highly prized stretch from the ferry terminals to White Sand Beach is even more limited as many portions either belong to the Royal Thai Navy or have been declared nature conservation areas.

However, Siam Royal View has secured large pieces of prime land with proper land titles and building permissions, surrounded by the nature conservation areas, which makes it even more exclusive.

The Siam Royal View Koh Chang villa development is unique, with a high level of privacy guaranteed through its almost complete enclosure by the nature conservation areas. Another distinctive and unusual feature is sea access on both sides of the project; the development covering both sides of a natural promontory. This gives the project an uncommonly high shoreline to area ratio and as a result, the number of beachfront plots that can be developed is unusually large.

The beach is one of the outstanding features of our Koh Chang villa project. The development boasts almost four kilometres of shoreline, of which over 2km are pristine sandy beaches.

Many observers of the Thai real estate market have commented that Koh Chang is set to become the next Phuket in terms of property demand and values. However, it is possible to buy property at Siam Royal View in superior quality but at a fraction of the cost to similar property in Phuket.

The property market in Koh Chang is still relatively new, but capital growth has been averaging in excess of 10% per year for the last few years and there is no doubt that demand for property on the island will remain strong and see significant price increases for the foreseeable future. Land values in Koh Chang and its environs are expected to appreciate strongly as top brand resort and hotel chains have already arrived, or are planning new properties in the area.

Hotel room prices are some of the highest in the kingdom, and yet all hotels are fully booked, sometimes even overbooked, during the high season. For this reason there are strong returns on rental income, which is a significant financial benefit to our Koh Chang villa owners.

Another benefit to purchasing property in Koh Chang over other beach destinations in Thailand is the enforcement of stringent building codes and nature conservation regulations. Approximately 80% of Koh Chang is listed as protected national park and this acts as a brake on untrammelled over-development seen in other areas like Phuket, Samui, Hua Hin or Pattaya. The quality of living for those who prefer unspoilt natural setting will remain high in spite of the ongoing development, since this happens in an ecologically conscious way.

The development of the property market in Koh Chang may be as speedy and financially rewarding as that of Phuket, but on a more ecologically sustainable basis. While the government has assured most of Koh Chang conservation status, it has also implemented multiple infrastructure projects as a basis for the development zones where construction is permitted. As a result of these overwhelmingly positive attributes, many Thai VIPs are known to have invested in land in the Koh Chang archipelago.
