What your numbers look like when tourism stays strong
Your focus on projected ROI and payback period is timely.
Phuket hotels and branded residences continue to attract capital from local and foreign buyers. Not because of hype. Because the numbers work.
Tourism demand remains solid.
Hotel occupancy across Phuket has stayed in the 75 to 85 percent range post-pandemic. International arrivals continue to recover. Flight capacity keeps rising. This supports room rates and cash flow through 2026.
Below is how returns stack up today.
Projected Net Rental Yield 2024–2026
- Branded hotels and residences
- Net yield: 5–7 percent
- Supported by professional operators and global booking systems
- Hotel-style condos (short-term rental)
- Gross yield: 8–15 percent
- Net yield after fees: 5–7 percent
- Villas for holiday rental
- Net yield: 5–8 percent
- Higher seasonality. Higher management input
Returns remain strongest in established zones such as Bang Tao and Kamala, where occupancy stays high year-round.
Capital Growth Outlook
- Branded hotel and residence assets
- Annual growth: 12–18 percent
- Non-branded condos and villas
- Annual growth: 5–8 percent
Branded assets continue to trade at a premium. Buyers pay for operator reputation, resale liquidity, and income visibility.
In peak demand areas, branded projects shorten payback through higher resale value and steadier income.
What this means for your investment decision
- Cash flow matters, but exit value matters more
- Branded assets offer clearer income visibility
- Location and operator quality shape real ROI
- Conservative underwriting still delivers acceptable payback
Ask yourself:
- Are you targeting income, capital growth, or both?
- Is your hold period aligned with a 8–12 year payback?
- Do you want active involvement or hands-off ownership?
