Thailand is well known as the ‘The Land of Smiles’ and once you experience it you will see it has earned this title. The Thai’s are extremely friendly people with an open personality and natural curiosity. It is quite typical for them to welcome foreigners with open arms. This is one of the reasons why so many people decide to buy their luxury winter retreat or permanent family home on this tropical paradise.
Market research shows that Phuket, as a place to live, is one of the top five paradise destinations in the world! The quality of life here in Phuket is what you make it and the sky is the limit, with facilities and amenities to satisfy everyone’s needs.
In recent years, Phuket has developed a first class infrastructure and now has its own international airport, 2 international hospitals, employing fully qualified staff, and 6 international schools. 5 business centers make it possible to find handicrafts and imported items; there are restaurants to suit all tastes, sports centres and multiplex cinemas. 4 marina’s able to cater for all sizes of vessels, 2 international ports, 25 schools, 6 golf courses and, naturally being situated in Asia, all types of health and beauty services!

Hire a motorbike or car and follow the winding scenic coast road around the island. Starting at Bang Thao, follow the mountain road to Kamala and Karon, stopping off at any of the secluded bays and beaches on the way, each one unique and individual.
