Laguna Property

Who is Laguna Property? Laguna Property is the real-estate arm of Laguna Resorts & Hotels PLC, part of the Banyan Group (formerly Banyan Tree Holdings). In 1984 the company acquired 550+ acres of a former tin mine in Cherng Talay and turned it into Laguna Phuket — Asia's first integrated resort complex, opening with Dusit Thani Laguna in 1987. Its parent has been listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand since 1993.

What does Laguna Property specialise in? Hotel-branded residences and villas inside the gated Laguna Phuket estate — under the Banyan Tree, Angsana, Cassia, Garrya and SkyPark names — combining private ownership with resort services, rental management and access to the estate's hotels, golf course, lagoons and beach.

Where does it build? Almost entirely within Laguna Phuket at Bang Tao / Cherng Talay on the premium north-west coast. The group has also announced Laguna Lakeland, a multi-year, multi-billion-dollar expansion of the township.

Track record and quality. As one of Phuket's largest and longest-running developers, Laguna has delivered 1,200+ properties over four decades and holds numerous environmental and tourism awards, reflecting an emphasis on responsible, master-planned development. Build and handover are backed by the group's hospitality operations.

Buying terms and rental. Condominium units are typically available on foreign freehold, with leasehold or company structures for villas; the estate offers established, hotel-grade rental management for owners who want a hands-off income asset.

Who is it for — and who not? Laguna suits a buyer who wants a branded, managed, resort-lifestyle residence with strong liquidity and a blue-chip developer behind it. It is less relevant for a budget entry or for buyers who prefer a standalone plot outside a managed township — pricing and service fees reflect the integrated-resort model.
