Why Buy a Hotel in Phuket?
Strong Tourism Demand
Phuket is one of the most visited destinations in Southeast Asia, attracting over 10 million tourists annually. The island’s popularity with international travelers, especially from Europe, China, Russia, and Australia, drives consistent demand for accommodation across all categories.
Resilient Market Recovery
Following the global slowdown, Phuket has seen a strong rebound in both tourist arrivals and hotel occupancy rates. With the Thai government investing heavily in infrastructure and promotion, long-term prospects remain extremely strong.
Diverse Property Options
Phuket has a wide selection of hotels for sale, from small guesthouses in Patong to luxury resorts in Laguna, Bang Tao, Kata, and Kamala. Buyers can choose between turnkey operations, renovation projects, or land with hotel licenses in place.
High ROI Potential
Phuket hotels offer strong rental yields, especially in high-demand areas. With savvy management, upgrades, or rebranding, buyers can dramatically increase both income and resale value.
Lifestyle and Business Combined
Owning a hotel in Phuket allows you to blend investment with lifestyle. Many buyers choose to reside on-site or nearby, enjoying island life while running a profitable business.

- Company Structure: Foreign ownership of land is restricted, but hotel businesses can be acquired via the BOI (Board of Investment) or a Thai company with correct legal structuring. Foreigners must realise that nominee shareholders in Thailand are illegal.
- Due Diligence: Financial statements, employee contracts, guest review history, and property inspections are critical.
- Management Options: Some buyers prefer to manage independently, while others retain professional hotel management companies.
