Gorgeous 5 bedroom with large gardens in Rawai

Location — Nai Harn, Phuket

Nai Harn is built around what many consider Phuket's most beautiful beach — a postcard bay of turquoise water and white sand framed by a lake, a royal monastery and green headlands at the island's southern tip. The bay is protected and swimmable most of the year, the lakeside park hosts joggers and yoga classes, and the neighbourhood behind remains low-rise and leafy, giving the area the feel of a world-class beach that still seems like a local secret. Mornings begin with a swim or a lakeside run, brunch follows at one of the village's excellent cafés, and sunset at Promthep Cape or the windmill viewpoint is a daily ritual, with the restaurants of Rawai and Nai Harn village covering everything from Thai seafood to Mediterranean fine dining. Property ranges from designer villas in the hills toward Rawai and Ao Sane to boutique condominiums minutes from the sand. Beach quality and scarce buildable land give Nai Harn the south's highest prices and excellent long-term fundamentals: rental demand spans winter long-stays and premium holiday lets, while sea-view villas on the hillside are particularly sought after by end-users and investors alike.
