How much does an apartment cost in Phuket?
Insider's Response
Phuket is becoming an increasingly popular destination for investment, with many people buying property on the island. The number of listings on the market continues to grow every year. A common choice is purchasing an apartment in a condominium. We’ve covered the details of that process here. You can find the best Condominiums in our dedicated selection.
The cost of property depends on several factors:
- Apartment size
- Proximity to the sea – the closer, the more expensive
- Property class – quality of finishes, design, and level of equipment
- Location in areas with developed infrastructure
- Whether it’s a new development
If you’re wondering how much an apartment costs in Phuket, here are the current price ranges:
- $40,000–$70,000: Studios and one-bedroom apartments in new complexes, often with security, a swimming pool, and a gym
- $80,000–$150,000: One- to two-bedroom apartments within 1–2 km of the beach, often with sea views
- $200,000–$500,000: Large apartments, duplexes, and penthouses with direct pool access
- From $500,000 and up: Premium-class properties located 50–500 meters from the sea or in hotel-style complexes, including penthouses with plunge pools and beachfront townhouses (around $1,070,000)
If you’re buying in a new development, you’ll often get a fully finished apartment with painted walls, flooring, kitchen appliances, air conditioning, and built-in furniture. You can also opt for a turnkey package that includes full furniture, a refrigerator, and a TV.
