Banyan Tree Beach Residences Oceanus

The developer targets the fourth quarter of 2028, and its own page describes construction as substantially progressed as of September 2026, with foundations, structure, roofing and plastering largely complete. Oceanus is off-plan, which means the purchase is a series of instalments against construction progress rather than a single payment against a finished home. Before committing, establish three things in writing: whether deposits sit in escrow or are protected against construction progress, what the developer's completed track record on Phuket looks like, and what happens to your instalments if the schedule moves. Banyan Group has been building on this shore since 1994, which is a longer record than most developers currently selling in Bang Tao can show, but a track record is a reason to ask the question rather than a reason to skip it.

The sixteen residences run from 416 to 768 square metres, in four-bedroom and penthouse formats. Ground-floor homes have private pools, and the penthouses have pools on the roof. For context, 416 square metres is roughly three times the size of a large three-bedroom condominium in central Bangkok, so these are family houses in the air rather than apartments, and they are priced accordingly.

Banyan Group's own page gives the guidance: residences from about THB 160 million and penthouses to about THB 391 million, which works out to roughly THB 375,000 to 426,000 per square metre, as published by the developer on 1 September 2026. That top figure would make an Oceanus penthouse one of the most expensive condominium purchases ever offered on Phuket, which is consistent with what it is: 768 square metres of duplex on absolute beachfront with a private rooftop pool. Sixteen homes means the price list is short and moves quickly; as an appointed sales agency we confirm current unit-by-unit availability and pricing directly with the developer at inquiry.

The developer offers both, at the buyer's choice: freehold within the 49 per cent foreign quota of the building's sellable area, or a 30-year registered lease with two further 30-year options, as its own page states in September 2026. The honest reading of each: on the freehold route, confirm in writing how much of the quota remains unallocated for your unit before you reserve; on the leasehold route, the registered 30 years is a property right and the two renewals are contractual promises, so never let 30+30+30 be quoted to you as ninety years. Have Thai counsel read the papers before either is relied on.

The developer states a common area fee of approximately THB 60 per square metre per month, which on a 416 square metre residence is roughly THB 25,000 a month, before the sinking fund contribution paid at transfer. Pets are not permitted, other than service and guide dogs, per the developer's own FAQ. One more line worth knowing before a viewing: the ground-floor gardens are exclusive-use areas rather than part of the title deed, so ask for the title breakdown of the specific unit, which is exactly the kind of question we put to the developer in writing.

The developer's own quotation of 8 April 2026 sets out a reservation deposit of THB 1 million, non-refundable, with the contract signed within thirty days, and then five instalments of 20 per cent: the first on contract, the rest at 25, 50, 75 and 100 per cent of construction. A second option splits it, half paid against construction progress and half financed over one, three or five years at the developer's stated rates. Two costs sit outside the price and are worth budgeting from the start: the common area fee and the sinking fund, each quoted at THB 100 per square metre, and the registration fee, 2 per cent of appraised value on the freehold route. Schedules and promotions change, so as an appointed sales agency we confirm the current terms for a specific unit with the developer in writing before anything is signed.

Laguna Phuket is an integrated estate on the Bang Tao shore that Banyan Group has been developing since 1994, with its own golf course, lagoon system, beach clubs and hotel operations. An owner inside it buys into infrastructure that already exists and has been running for three decades, rather than a masterplan drawing. That matters on a shore where roughly fifty-seven off-plan condominium projects were active as of August 2026: most of them are selling a future, and this estate can be walked today.
