The villas
Every villa is single-storey, built in a warm, modern tropical style with natural stone, timber and wide floor-to-ceiling windows. The living, dining and kitchen space opens straight onto a covered terrace and pavilion, a private swimming pool and a lawned garden, so indoors and outdoors work as one. The two and three-bedroom villas have a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, and every villa has a laundry or store, a guest toilet and a parking area.
Optional upgrades include an outdoor kitchen, a solar panel system and a furniture package. All images are artist’s impressions.
Community and facilities
Wana Thara has deliberately been kept small: just 16 villas and one community building.
- Community building with a café and reception
- Children’s playground
- Café with co-working area
- Free shuttle to Bang Por Beach twice a day
- Free shuttle to the Fisherman’s Village night market on its four market days each week
The community fee covers professional management and the upkeep of both the private villas and the shared areas. That includes garden and lawn care, pool cleaning, pest control, exterior inspections, the shared roads, lighting, playground and café surroundings, and waste collection. It is fixed for the first three years:
| Villa | Monthly community fee |
|---|---|
| 1 bedroom | ฿10,000 |
| 2 bedroom | ฿11,000 |
| 3 bedroom | ฿12,000 |
Electricity, water, internet and owner repairs are paid separately.
Location: Bang Por, Koh Samui
Bang Por is one of Koh Samui’s most relaxed and authentic areas, away from the busy tourist centres but close to beaches, restaurants and everyday shops. From Wana Thara you can easily reach Maenam, Nathon, Bophut and Fisherman’s Village, and Bang Por Beach is about 1.2 km away.
Ownership: 30-year registered land lease
You own your villa, and the land plot is held on a 30-year lease registered at the Land Office, with a separate lease for each plot. The annual lease fee starts from ฿50,000 for a one-bedroom villa, ฿60,000 for a two-bedroom and ฿70,000 for a three-bedroom. Lease rent is paid five years in advance and increases by 1% a year.
Early-bird offer: the first six buyers get the first 10 years of the lease for the price of five, plus a free outdoor kitchen worth ฿290,000. Ask us whether the offer is still available.
Resale: when you sell, the existing lease can be transferred to the buyer for a ฿50,000 fee. Alternatively, it can be cancelled for a ฿400,000 fee so that the buyer starts a fresh 30-year lease.

Rental programme
Owners can use their villa privately or join the optional rental management programme. The management fee is 20% of income for short-term rentals and 15% for long-term rentals of three months or more, with no management fee when you stay yourself.
The developer projects net annual income after management, community fee and land lease, at an estimated 65% occupancy:
- 1 bedroom: about ฿555,400 a year
- 2 bedroom: about ฿790,800 a year
- 3 bedroom: about ฿1,026,200 a year
That’s an expected return of about 9–12%. These are illustrative projections, not guaranteed returns.
