Whale Marina Condo

Construction risk is no longer the issue here because the buildings are completed and occupied. The current project website, DDproperty, FazWaz, Thavorn and several other databases point to 2019, with some specifying December 2019. Older Thai project descriptions and a number of portal records instead say 2018. For a buyer in 2026, the practical conclusion is straightforward: this is a finished resale condominium, but the exact completion year should not be stated more confidently than the evidence allows. If the date matters for a legal file, insurance, depreciation analysis or an engineering review, the condominium registration and handover records are the right evidence.

The unit mix is broader than the low-rise format might suggest. Repeated project data shows studios from roughly 29 sqm, one-bedroom units around 41–59 sqm, two-bedroom units around 65–91 sqm, and duplex layouts around 78–92 sqm. Live resale inventory does not always match those historic ranges perfectly: current listings include studios around 28.96–31 sqm and larger two-bedroom homes around 92 sqm. That is normal in a mature project where different buildings, layout codes and later unit combinations can create small variations. A buyer should therefore compare the actual registered plan, usable layout, floor, outlook, renovation condition and building rather than relying on the bedroom label alone.

As of 9 September 2026, the lowest active price we could verify was THB 1.69 million for a studio of about 31 sqm. The specific PropertyHub listing is advertised in the foreign quota, which makes the example more useful to an international buyer than a low Thai-quota price would be. Other active stock is materially more expensive, and larger two-bedroom units can approach or exceed THB 9 million depending on size, floor and view. Whale Marina therefore does not have one meaningful 'project price' on the resale market. The cheapest unit is a market entry point, not a proxy for average value, finish quality or what a better-positioned apartment should cost.

For recurring ownership costs, FazWaz publishes a common-area management fee of THB 45 per sqm per month, a figure also shown by Thavorn, and lists a THB 550 per sqm sinking-fund contribution. Those figures need context in a completed resale building. The sinking fund is normally associated with the original transfer into the condominium, while the monthly fee can be revised by owner or juristic-person decisions over time. A resale buyer should obtain the current juristic-person statement, confirm whether the unit has any arrears, and check the current fee schedule rather than assuming a portal's legacy project data is still the amount payable today.

The location trades central-Jomtien walkability for a calmer Na Jomtien setting. That can work well for an owner who wants a resort-like coastal base and is comfortable using a car, taxi or ride-hailing service. It is less convincing for someone whose priority is to step outside into a dense grid of restaurants, public transport and nightlife every day. Parking is another practical point: major project databases publish a parking ratio of roughly 30% of units. Actual demand varies with occupancy, but a household that expects to keep a car should test evening and high-season parking conditions instead of treating 'car park' on an amenities list as proof that space is always easy to find.

The developer identity requires a transparent footnote rather than a convenient simplification. The current Whale Marina website names SK Pattaya Construction Development as the developer and carries that company name in the site footer. Home.co.th, Hipflat and earlier Thai project material identify Pavilion Beach Co., Ltd. as the project owner or developer. Those statements can coexist if the companies had different ownership, development or construction roles, but the public sources we reviewed do not establish the legal relationship clearly enough. For registry purposes we use SK Pattaya Construction Development as the current public developer name from the project website, while the Pavilion Beach attribution remains a transaction-level due-diligence item.
