COMO Point Yamu

COMO’s current residences page states that there are 27 residences at the Phuket resort. Each has a private infinity pool, sundecks, a fully equipped kitchen and substantial indoor and outdoor living space, with services including butler support, concierge and 24-hour security. Historical launch material adds an important distinction: in 2014, 20 villas were released for private ownership, initially described as two- and three-bedroom homes. This is why the widely repeated figure of 106 units should not be read as 106 saleable residences. The resort’s total accommodation inventory combines 79 hotel rooms and suites with 27 private villas. For a property buyer, the meaningful numbers are the residence count and the actual number of resale villas available at a given time.

Design is a defining part of the estate, but the useful facts are more specific than the usual luxury language. COMO credits Jean-Michel Gathy as architect and Paola Navone for the interiors. The residences are organised around sea views, large terraces, pools and generous living areas. The current hotel accommodation catalogue includes one- to four-bedroom pool-villa formats, yet resale listings can use different area definitions from the resort’s room descriptions. A current two-bedroom resale, for example, is marketed at about 248 sqm, while COMO describes its two-bedroom pool-villa accommodation as 226 sqm. Those figures should not be blended into an average. For a transaction, the buyer should rely on the registered documents, approved plans and measured areas for the villa actually being acquired.

The appeal of buying inside an operating resort is the shared service and amenity platform. COMO lists a long infinity-edge pool, a wellness centre with treatment rooms, gym and yoga facilities, jacuzzi, sauna and steam rooms, plus Nahmyaa, La Sirena, Aqua Bar, children’s spaces and concierge services. For some owners, this is the reason to buy here rather than in a standalone villa: the home has privacy, but the surrounding environment behaves more like a hotel. The important caveat is that hotel-guest benefits and residence-owner entitlements are not automatically identical. Before committing, a buyer should obtain the current management agreement and fee schedule and confirm which services are included, which are charged separately, and whether there are rules governing private use, guests, renovations or rental participation.

Because the estate is completed and operational, construction risk is no longer the central issue. A buyer can inspect what actually exists: the villa, pool, drainage, waterproofing, air-conditioning, common areas and the standard of resort operations. The trade-off is age. Large tropical villas with extensive glazing, terraces, pools and mechanical systems can accumulate meaningful maintenance requirements even when they present well. A serious inspection should therefore include the repair history, waterproofing, pool equipment, air-conditioning, electrical and plumbing systems, furniture inventory and any outstanding management or common-area charges. In a property at this price level, the difference between a well-maintained villa and one needing major refurbishment can be material to the real acquisition cost.

As of 13 September 2026, the lowest resale anchor found in the reviewed listings is THB 61.482 million for a two-bedroom villa of roughly 248 sqm. Three-bedroom villas are materially higher; one traceable 427 sqm listing is offered at about THB 96.021 million. These figures are useful for understanding the order of budget, not for establishing a project-wide price. Villas in a low-volume resort estate can differ substantially by position, view, plot, refurbishment, furniture, pool setting and legal structure. Price per square metre is therefore less informative here than it would be in a standard condominium building. A proper comparison needs to be villa against villa, with the rights and ongoing obligations normalised as far as possible.

For a foreign buyer, the land structure is central. Thai law does not generally allow direct foreign ownership of land, apart from narrow statutory exceptions. Historical Point Yamu sales information describes the private villas on a leasehold basis. In practice, that means the legal review should separate the building rights from the land rights and establish exactly what is being transferred. An old sales promise about future lease renewals should not be assumed to bind a current resale transaction. The buyer needs the registered lease, its commencement date and remaining term, the identity and legal capacity of the lessor, transfer and succession clauses, and any side agreements that apply to the particular residence.
