Boutique Luxury Real Estate in Phuket
Local Expertise • Personal Advice • Smarter Property Decisions
Sun Above Phuket is a boutique real estate agency in Bang Tao, on Phuket’s west coast. With over 20 years of experience in Phuket real estate, we provide trusted, personalised guidance across a carefully selected portfolio spanning quality residences to exceptional luxury properties, helping you buy, sell and invest with confidence.
We advise buyers, sellers and investors across Bang Tao, Laguna, Cherng Talay, Layan, Surin and Kamala, covering villas, condominiums, land and commercial property. Our team works in English, Russian and Thai, and answers every enquiry within one hour.
Boutique Approach
Every client has different priorities. We take the time to understand your lifestyle, investment goals and expectations, providing a highly personalised service rather than a standard package.
Local Insight
Our connection to Phuket goes beyond property. We understand the island’s locations, communities, lifestyle, market dynamics and long term potential, helping you identify not simply a property, but the right place for you.
Curated Opportunities
Rather than overwhelming you with an extensive catalogue, we curate properties on quality, location, value, potential and fit, so your search is more focused and more meaningful.
Trusted Expertise
Phuket’s property market can be complex, particularly for international buyers. Foreigners can own a condominium freehold within a building’s 49% foreign quota, while land cannot be owned directly, so villas are usually held through a registered long lease or a company structure. We advise on compliant structures only and always recommend independent legal review.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can foreigners buy property in Phuket?
Yes, foreigners can own condominiums freehold within the 49% foreign quota of a building. Land cannot be owned directly, and villas are typically held via long leasehold or other structures that should always be reviewed by an independent lawyer.
Is leasehold safe in Thailand?
A registered 30-year lease is enforceable. Since a March 2025 Supreme Court ruling, automatic "30+30+30" renewal promises are not enforceable beyond the first 30 years, and any agent promising otherwise is misleading you. We structure compliantly and recommend independent legal advice.
What does it cost to buy?
Beyond the price: transfer fee and taxes shared with the seller by negotiation, plus legal fees. Buyers do not pay our commission, the seller or developer does.
What rental return is realistic?
Published market data for Phuket: long term rentals net roughly 4 to 6%; well run holiday lets net roughly 6 to 10%. Anyone guaranteeing more deserves scepticism.
Which areas do you recommend?
Depends on the goal: Bang Tao and Laguna for year round rental demand and lifestyle; Layan for quieter luxury; Rawai and Chalong for long stay value, Surin and Kamala for beach proximity. Our area guides cover each.
Do you speak Russian?
Да. Ivan Maykov, our Business Development Manager, is a Russian speaker based on the island and handles Russian speaking buyers end to end.
How fast do you reply?
Within one hour, on WhatsApp, any day.
Can you manage my property after purchase?
Yes, rentals and property management for owners, including owners who bought elsewhere and lost their developer's after-sales support.
Do you work with other agents?
Yes, we co-broke on a written 50/50 split, and our Russian-speaking agent can close Russian leads for agencies without one.
How do payments from abroad work?
Standard foreign purchases use international transfer with a Foreign Exchange Transaction certificate for condo quota. Payment routing, especially from Russia, is confirmed case by case with a lawyer before commitment.
