I was very fortunate at the time I purchased the lot I was one of the first buyers in this development and took a huge risk. The island was known to be a backpacker's paradise and not known for luxury rentals, but in time that changed and the risk paid off. I purchased the lot in 2006, and it wasn't built till 2010 finally furnished it in 2011. It started out as a retirement villa but in 2015 I was financially hurting and started to rent it out, it did really well and it supported me after I got laid off in 2016. Then came the big hotel chain that bought an entire row of villas on the sand and forced small homeowners like me to lower our daily rates, and then in 2020 came covid, and that really put the hurt on, so the island was locked down for a year or more Now that Thailand is open again, I am back on track and the villa is rented from mid-December to last week of January, and then in the first week of February. That is why I am able to make the last watch purchase.
If anyone in this group is interested I would be happy to give a discounted rate.
So you have a lot of history with this paradise it sounds like sir.
So cool ! 😎😎
By the way, I was thinking, one would think that a location like this
would have actually done alright during the last few years because
it’s kind of like this hidden sanctuary right?! ⛰Where there really
aren’t going to be a ton of people, and everyone is also seemingly
separated from each other, as well as outside a little t of the time.
I’m just happy the place, along with all of it’s people made it through
the last few years. It really is very cool to learn about.
Thanks again Bob !
