Laguna Phuket, fact by fact.
This is the fact sheet for Laguna Phuket, the Banyan Group resort estate on the Bang Tao shore of Phuket: 20 residential projects, 20 of them with a page on this site, every fact below written as one sentence carrying its source, the day it was checked and a link of its own. Counts are derived from the records at the moment the page is built, so none of them can be typed wrong. No price appears here.
Facts verified:
The estate, and where we stand on it.
What Laguna Phuket is, who builds it, and what Embark Estate's standing on it actually is.
- Laguna Phuket is an integrated resort estate on the Bang Tao shore of Phuket, built by Banyan Group from 1994 on a rehabilitated tin mine, carrying an 18-hole golf course, a lagoon system, hotels, beach clubs and branded residences.

- All 20 residential projects listed on this page are developed by Banyan Group, and this register holds no record of a third-party developer building inside the estate.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- Embark Estate is an appointed, non-exclusive sales agency for Banyan Group, confirmed in writing on 24 August 2026, and the appointment reaches all 20 of the estate's projects published here.

How many there are, and how they group.
Counted from the records rather than from the developer's marketing, so the figure moves when the register does.
- Banyan Group sells 20 residential projects at Laguna Phuket that a buyer selects one of, and this site publishes a page for 20 of them.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- 0 of the projects on the developer's September 2026 list still have no page here, a count that rises the day the developer lists a name we have not covered and falls the day its record is written.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- 22 Banyan Group records on Phuket sit behind that figure: the 20 projects a buyer selects, plus 2 masterplan wrappers that are parents of a series rather than homes anyone buys.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- The developer groups the 20 projects into 5 families of its own naming, which this site prints second, after where a home sits, whether it is built, and how it is held.

Where they sit, beach, lagoon and fairway.
Setting is the first control on this estate, ahead of the developer's family names.
- Counted by water relationship, 1 of the 20 projects sits on absolute beachfront: Banyan Tree Beach Residences Oceanus.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- A project may carry more than one setting, a lakeside building beside the golf course being both, so the setting counts on this page add up to more than 20.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- 5 of the estate's projects carry the shore name Bang Tao rather than Laguna on their own records, because they stand on the Bang Tao sand, so a filter reading the shore alone drops them from the estate they belong to.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- 1 of the 20 projects is on absolute beachfront.
- 8 of the 20 projects are within reach of the beach.
- 10 of the 20 projects are on the lagoon system.
- 3 of the 20 projects are golf-side.
- 1 of the 20 projects is hotel-serviced.
What is standing, and what is not.
Read from documents we have verified. A sales status is not evidence that a building exists.
- Of the 20 projects, 3 are standing and can be walked today, 1 is under construction, 0 have not started, and the build state of 16 is unconfirmed because no document we hold establishes it.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- The projects a buyer can walk today are Angsana Oceanview Residences, Laguna Beach Residences Seashore and Skypark Celeste Laguna Phuket.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- The project we have established as physically under construction is Banyan Tree Beach Residences Oceanus.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- Build state on this estate is read from documents we have verified and never from a sales status, so a project the developer describes as selling may be a building that does not yet exist.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- Banyan Group publishes a completion target on its own project page for Banyan Tree Beach Residences Oceanus, the fourth quarter of 2028, and published none for the other projects read on 23 September 2026.

How a home is held, and what is priced.
General information, not legal advice. Ownership structure is settled from the papers of the specific building, read with your own Thai counsel.
- Of the 20 projects, 17 carry no ownership structure we have read the papers for, 3 state both a freehold route inside the building's 49 per cent foreign quota and a registered lease, and 0 state one route alone.
Source: Derived at render from Embark Estate's own coastal records · Checked
- Confirming on this estate means the developer has published no ownership structure for that building and we have not read its papers, not that the answer is complicated.

- Banyan Group's buyer guide of 30 June 2025 offers freehold condominiums and leasehold villas, and describes villa leasehold as a 30-year lease extendable for two further 30-year periods, which is thirty registered years plus two contractual promises rather than ninety years of ownership.

- Banyan Group has cleared a guide price for publication on 1 of the 20 projects, and no price for any of them appears anywhere on this page.

- Embark Estate publishes no yield, rental return or capital-growth figure for any project at Laguna Phuket, and no island average, in any language.

What the developer calls them.
Six naming findings from Banyan Group's own pages on 23 September 2026. Each one is a search a buyer types and an answer an engine gets wrong.
- Laguna Beach Residences Seashore and Laguna Seaside Residences are one building: the developer's page heading, its brand page and its July 2026 master plan say Seashore, while that same page's HTML title, its meta description and its 2022 launch note say Seaside.
Source: Banyan Group's own pages, read 23 September 2026 · Checked
- Laguna Beach Residences Reef is a separate completed building of 120 units across five floors, sold on resale only and not a phase of Seashore, and it has no page on Banyan Group's sales site.

- Laguna Lakelands Waterside Residences was launched in 2024 as Lakeview Residences, and the developer's page title and meta description still carry the launch name while everything navigational says Waterside.

- Pentas appears on no Banyan Group page read on 23 September 2026: Bellaguna Golf Residences launched in July 2025 as Laguna Golf Residences Hibiscus, was renamed when the Bellaguna brand arrived in December 2025, and a further building released on 5 June 2026 was given no name at all.

- Banyan Tree Beach Residences Mazu is a sixth Banyan Tree beach address on the Bang Tao sand, listed on the developer's own site under the page title Beach Villas and placed at the Surin end of the beachfront on the July 2026 master plan, and it has no page in this register.

- Banyan Tree Lake Residences Yara carries four developer names for one project: Banyan Tree Lake Residences Yara, Banyan Tree Grand Residences Lagoon Pool Villas, Yara Residences at Banyan Tree Phuket and Banyan Tree Yara.

- Three of the Beach Residences were marketed under earlier names the developer still uses in places: Sirena as Grand Residences Seaview, Nammu as Grand Residences Beach Terraces, and Aegir as Grand Residences Oceanfront Villas.

What the developer does not publish.
An absence is a fact. Where Banyan Group publishes nothing, this page says so rather than filling the gap from a portal.
- Angsana Beachfront Residences has no page on Banyan Group's sales site and appears in none of its project lists; its only developer description is on the Laguna Phuket resort's resale page, which gives 18 units across three floors.
Source: Laguna Phuket resort resale page, read 23 September 2026 · Checked
- No Banyan Group e-brochure for a Laguna Phuket project is served openly, every one sitting behind a registration form as read on 23 September 2026, which is why no brochure is cited anywhere on this site.
Source: Banyan Group's own pages, read 23 September 2026 · Checked
- Where the developer states a unit figure as an award category, such as the 10 to 19 units given for Yara, that is a band and not a count, so this site does not publish it as a number of homes.

The register itself, project by project with its setting, build state and ownership, is on the Laguna Phuket estate page. What leasehold and freehold actually mean for a foreign buyer on this island is set out in our article on tenure in Phuket.
Tell us which of the 20 you are weighing, and we will send what the developer has actually cleared for that building.
