Where Millionaires Live in Phuket
Collections · 7 July 2026
Once, Phuket was perceived as a holiday destination: long, beautiful, but still temporary. Today, the island is increasingly becoming a permanent address. Families, entrepreneurs, and investors move here — all those who choose not only the climate and beaches, but also the quality of everyday life.
"In our work with clients, we see how the housing search is evolving. Less and less is it about an abstract villa by the sea, and more and more about daily routine. At the same time, the key criterion remains unchanged: where exactly to live in Phuket with a high level of comfort?", — Zhanna Sviritkova, CEO Get Your Phuket.
Intuitively, it seems there should be one "golden" district on the island. However, Phuket is far more interesting than that.
Bang Tao
Bang Tao is becoming the center of new life in Phuket. More and more expats from all over the world are moving here. A full-fledged urban environment is taking shape: international schools, restaurants, beach clubs, sports and medical infrastructure, shopping spaces. Bang Tao is no longer just a resort — it's a district where it's convenient to live every day.
Sai Taan is one of the projects that fits when it comes to life at the center of things without losing privacy. Gated territory, green streets, spacious plots, and at the same time walking distance to Boat Avenue, restaurants, fitness clubs, and the beach.
Sai Taan Luxury Trinity Villa — a 5-bedroom villa in a classic tropical style. Large plot, private pool, and garden — a family residence format in one of the most convenient areas of the island.
A separate request that clients regularly bring to Get Your Phuket is the combination of a private villa and luxury resort-level service. In this case, Banyan Tree Grand Residences is worth considering. This is a format where the home becomes part of an ecosystem: restaurants, spa, golf, service — everything is available at any moment.
Banyan Tree Grand Residences Villa — a 4-bedroom villa in a modern elegant style, located by the lake. Spacious layout, private pool, and access to the infrastructure of the Banyan Tree Grand Residences complex.
"Among clients with children, priorities shift. What comes to the forefront is not the scale of the villa, but the convenience of everyday life and time spent commuting. Clover Residence is one of the most telling examples.
The complex is located next to HeadStart International School, and that's exactly what makes it a stable choice for families, despite the more modest plot sizes", — Zhanna Sviritkova, CEO Get Your Phuket.
Ocean Blue Luxury Villa — a modern 4-bedroom villa with concise architecture and functional layout. Compact plot with a private pool and views over green areas. The key advantage is the location.
Layan
There are clients who, on the contrary, want to step back from the active life of Bang Tao. For them, the Layan area is most often suitable — a calmer, greener, and more private part of the island. Residents enjoy gated communities, silence, space, and premium service with a sense of living in nature.
Cohiba Sea View Villa — a 4-bedroom villa built in a modern tropical aesthetic. Located on an elevation, thanks to which panoramic sea views open up from all key areas of the villa.
Layan Estate Villa — a classic 4-bedroom villa on a spacious plot. Here, guests enjoy privacy, views over green hills, and the atmosphere of a secluded residence.
The Botanica Foresta complex is becoming one of the main projects for long-term living among Get Your Phuket clients: architecture in a modern tropical style and a well-thought-out internal infrastructure.
Botanica Foresta Bliss Villa — a 4-bedroom villa with high ceilings, natural materials in the interior, and a tropical leisure area built around the pool and garden.
Nai Thon
Nai Thon is a wilder, hillier, and more isolated district on the west coast. Unlike the gated communities of Layan, Nai Thon has fewer club-house format projects and more standalone villas that literally hover above the sea. This is a location for those who want to live with a cinematic landscape and see the endless horizon line every day.
Malaiwana Penthouse — a 4-bedroom penthouse in a prestigious residential complex in a modern minimalist style: panoramic glazing, a spacious terrace, and an infinity pool. The penthouse is located on a slope, thanks to which the seascape remains unobstructed — here, guests get the feeling of living on the edge of the world.
Kamala — "Millionaire's Mile"
When clients come with a request for an "exclusive villa with sea views," in most cases Get Your Phuket agents offer this location. "Millionaire's Mile" is about seclusion taken to the absolute level. The villas here are also located on slopes, but are completely hidden from prying eyes and have panoramic views of the Andaman Sea.
Andara Phuket deserves special mention — a project recommended to clients seeking a balance between a private residence and five-star hotel service. Morning spa, dinner at the restaurant, concierge service — all this becomes part of everyday life.
Andara Pool Villa — a 4-bedroom villa in a premium resort style: spacious interiors, panoramic terraces, and a private pool. Located on a slope above Kamala, with open sea views and access to the infrastructure of Andara Resort & Villas.
Cape Yamu
Cape Yamu is usually not shown to everyone. This is a location for those who have already seen different options and clearly understand what they are looking for. A gated district on the east of the island with access to marinas, architectural villas, and scenic panoramic views that were filmed for scenes of "The White Lotus." It's important to understand that people don't come here for the beach. Cape Yamu is chosen for its tranquility, space, and the ability to take a yacht out to sea at any moment and reach the islands.
Villa Amarapura — a 7-bedroom residence on the first line. Modern architecture with Asian accents, a plot of over 7,000 m², private pool, home cinema, fitness and games areas, mini-golf, and direct water access. Views over Phang Nga Bay and the islands create the feeling of a private resort.
Let's sum it up
After years of working with real estate in Phuket, it has become clear: there is no single ideal district that millionaires choose. People orient themselves according to their expectations:
-
life at the center of things;
-
life with sea views in complete tranquility and with hotel service;
-
life built around family;
-
life in seclusion, with a yacht and access to the islands.
That's why property selection at Get Your Phuket starts with the question: how do you see your day in Phuket? Because true luxury is the freedom to choose how you live. The Get Your Phuket team's task is to help you organize your ideal stay on the island.
