Kata Gardens
The boutique project Kata Gardens was built in 2020 and consists of three three-storey buildings, each of which has different types of apartments: apartments with spacious terraces and penthouses with fully equipped roofs for relaxation, swimming pools and sea views. Cosy buildings of Kata Gardens are literally buried in greenery, they are designed in traditional Thai style. The elegant design of the apartments, using a large amount of natural wood and with great attention to detail, will not leave you indifferent.

Buying in Phuket as a Foreign National
A focused legal, tax, visa and lifestyle briefing tailored to this property and its location. Information is general guidance — InDreams Phuket recommends consulting a Thai-licensed lawyer before signing any reservation agreement.
Property Ownership Rules
Foreign ownership in Thailand depends on the asset class. Condominium units may be purchased freehold (within the 49% foreign quota). Villas and houses are typically structured via long-term registered leasehold (30+30+30) or a Thai limited company. Our legal partners will recommend the optimal structure for this property.
Investment Returns
Net rental yields in Phuket\'s prime west-coast areas typically range from 5% to 8%, depending on location, building age, management quality and seasonal occupancy. Capital appreciation in the same areas has historically averaged 5–7% per annum.
Tax & Fees for Foreign Buyers
Total combined closing costs for a foreign buyer typically fall in the 3–5% range of the purchase price, depending on the deal structure and how transfer fees are split. InDreams Phuket can request a written closing-cost estimate from our partner law firm before you commit.
Visa Pathways for Property Owners
The flagship visa for foreign investors and high-income professionals. Four eligibility tracks: Wealthy Global Citizen (USD 1M+ in assets & USD 80K income), Wealthy Pensioner (age 50+, USD 80K pension/year), Work-from-Thailand Professional, and Highly Skilled Professional. Tax incentives include a flat 17% rate for HSP and no taxation on foreign-source income brought in.
The fastest and most popular route for property buyers who do not qualify for LTR. No income, age, or investment requirements beyond the one-time membership fee. Includes airport fast-track, dedicated concierge, and 90-day reporting handled by the program.
Available to foreigners who invest at least 10,000,000 THB in qualifying assets, including condominium units registered as freehold to the applicant. Renewable indefinitely while the investment is maintained. Suitable for buyers acquiring premium units in this price range.
Long-established option for buyers aged 50 and above. Requires either 800,000 THB on a Thai bank deposit or a monthly income of 65,000 THB. O-X variant grants a 5-year stay for nationals of selected countries.
Lifestyle for Expats in Kata
Kata sits on the southwest coast, two bays south of Patong and one north of Nai Harn. The area is built around two beaches, Kata Yai and the smaller Kata Noi, both with cleaner sand and calmer water than Patong, plus a reliable surf break from May to October that keeps a small but committed long-stay surf community on the island year round. The foreign population here splits into three groups: surf and dive instructors who came on a season and stayed, retirees who chose Kata over Rawai for direct beach access, and remote workers who rent condos in Kata Hills for the views. Day to day life is walkable along Kata Beach Road and Patak Road, with bakeries, Thai kitchens, two small supermarkets and a steady rotation of cafes opening and closing each season. Nightlife is low key compared to Patong: a handful of bars, the Ska Bar sundowner spot under the banyan tree, and the weekend Kata Night Market for street food. Schools require a car, with Kajonkiet the closest international option and the Phuket Town cluster reachable in 25 to 30 minutes. Healthcare is well covered by Mission Hospital and Bangkok Hospital Phuket on the Chalong side of the hill. The trade-offs are real high season traffic on the Patak hill road and limited supermarket options on site, but Kata works well for buyers who want a proper beach lifestyle without Patong density.
