Sai Rung is one of Phuket's finest land plots that is suitable for a quality day spa/resort, or an estate of low-density luxury homes. Situated on Cape Yamu, home to the new COMO Hotel that will open in 2013, it is ideally situated near the middle of Phuket with nice views south across the boat lagoon channel. It is one of the few land plots on the island with old-growth trees and a mature orchard. A lake was built in 2006 adding magnificent water features with established birdlife.

On an island boasting some of the region’s most extravagant private residences, this exclusive headland is home to the “Cape Yamu project, a community of grand yet elegant villas. Since its inception by architect Jean-Michel Gathy and acclaimed designer Philippe Starck, Cape Yamu has strived to create a tropical haven.

It’s easy to see why this tranquil peninsula on the east coast of Phuket was chosen. 

The views of the extraordinary seascape that is Phang Nga Bay, together with direct private beach access, make this a truly remarkable setting. Yet such exclusivity need not be remote, Cape Yamu is within thirty minutes drive of all the island’s golf courses, marinas, shopping centers, restaurants, and nightlife.

Sai Rung (rainbow in Thai) is a large 33 rai private estate of land for sale in a magnificent natural area of the east coast of Phuket, called Cape Yamu. The last area of beautiful unspoiled natural jungle and sea views overlooking the East Coast of Phuket. Sai Rung is a complete estate with a natural lake set in the middle of the property, while also being only a few minutes walk from the beautiful unspoiled Cape Yamu coastline.

The site also enjoys stunning views of both bays while also having amazing jungle views while being surrounded by old natural forest of Papaya, Banyan, and Durian trees.

Golf is nearby at the newly completed Jack Niclaus "Mission Hills" course 10 minutes away and all of the Islands of Phang Nga are accessible by dinghy or speed boat near the property boundary.

A drive along the water with superb Phang Nga views brings you to a private driveway meandering up through a plantation to a saddle and the start of the estate which stretches out left and up a hill with amazing North easterly valley views and to the right along with the saddle and up the ridgeline. The boundary flirts with the top of the ridge and runs down through the valley towards the ocean with tranquil blue views towards Phuket town. The bottom of the site cuts across the private lake which is mostly on the property, including a stunning massive Banyan Tree which would house a magnificent sala underneath.

Sai Rung enjoys an established large orchard near the saddle with 100 yr old durian trees, mangoes, bananas, papayas, Thai herbs and trees that are blessed with leaves that make Thai curries what they are. A natural waterway runs through to the valley floor and provides much of the fertility. The property is one of few untouched jungles in Phuket which stretches across the whole property (no commercial trees on the property) and has fabulous valley and blue views.
