Kata is Phuket's classic beach town done right — two golden bays, a walkable village of restaurants and surf shops, and hillsides of sea-view homes between Kata Noi and Karon.
If you are searching for kata villas for sale, you are looking in one of the island's most rewarding markets. On this page you will find our up-to-date selection of villas for sale in Kata, together with everything you need to know about the area, the buying process and what makes Kata special.
Kata combines a genuine holiday atmosphere with strong residential appeal. Kata Yai and Kata Noi beaches are among the island's best for swimming and surfing, the village is compact and walkable, and the viewpoint road toward Nai Harn hosts some of Phuket's most dramatic ocean-view properties.
The neighbouring bay of Karon adds a three-kilometre beach and further dining, while Chalong and Phuket Town are within easy reach over the hill.
Kata's property mix favours sea-view condominiums and hillside villas, many with spectacular sunset orientations over Kata Noi. Supply is constrained by the steep terrain, and properties with unobstructed sea views command lasting premiums.
Typical villas for sale in Kata feature:
Our portfolio for kata villas for sale changes weekly as new listings arrive and the best villas go under offer — if you do not see the right match below, contact us and we will source it.
Life in Kata flows between beach and village: morning surf or paddleboard sessions, lunch in beachfront cafés, sunset cocktails at the famous viewpoints or After Beach Bar. The dining scene is one of the south-west coast's best, from authentic Thai kitchens to long-established European restaurants.
Dino Park golf, dive centres, yoga studios and night markets keep every day full, and the area stays pleasantly active even in green season thanks to its surfing waves.
Buying property in Thailand is simpler than many international buyers expect, provided the right checks are made. A typical purchase with Empire Estates Phuket follows five steps:
Foreign buyers typically secure landed property in Phuket through one of three proven routes: a 30-year registered lease on the land (renewable by agreement) with freehold ownership of the building, ownership via a properly maintained Thai company, or — in licensed projects — outright freehold condominium-style titles.
Whichever structure fits your situation, we work alongside independent, reputable law firms to complete due diligence: title search, encumbrance check, developer track record and contract review, so you sign with complete confidence.
Kata's enduring popularity with returning holidaymakers delivers reliable short-term rental income, while sea-view units enjoy strong resale liquidity.
Beyond the headline yield, Phuket offers investors practical advantages: no annual property tax burden comparable to Western markets, low transaction costs, professional rental management widely available, and a tourism economy that has rebounded strongly. We help investors model realistic net returns — including management fees, sinking funds and seasonal occupancy — before any commitment is made.
