The 57 to 316 square metre band and the full-time-living line are both stated in Banyan Group's Property Development Overview of 5 February 2026, which does not say how many units carry that clearance or which sizes they are. Ask for the unit schedule, and ask specifically which units the clearance applies to.

Confirming

We are confirming the structure with the developer before stating it. We would rather show you the gap than fill it with a guess.

What to establish before committing

Not stated in Banyan Group's Property Development Overview of 5 February 2026. Condominium product on Phuket is commonly held freehold within the 49 per cent foreign quota, but we do not print one of two answers for this building until we have read its papers. On a hotel-managed address, establish the management agreement and any rental-programme obligation at the same time as the tenure: those terms decide what you may actually do with the home.

General information, not legal or tax advice. Any lease should be read by independent Thai counsel before signing.

Prices, availability, construction progress and ownership wording all move; we refresh them before any reservation and would rather show you the date than let a stale fact look current.

The project

What Residences at Garrya Phuket actually is.

Garrya is Banyan Group's quietest brand, and that is the point of it. Where Banyan Tree is the group's luxury flagship and Angsana its colourful sibling, Garrya is the restrained one, built around calm rather than spectacle. The residences follow the hotel's temperament, and a buyer choosing between the Banyan brands inside this one estate is choosing between those characters as much as between price points.

The product runs from 57 to 316 square metres: one and two-bedroom apartments, and penthouses with private pools on the roof. The building is professionally managed by the Garrya Phuket hotel together with Banyan Living, the group's residential management arm, and Banyan states that golf membership is included with selected units.

One line in the developer's description deserves to be read twice: a select number of units are available for full-time living. Most hotel-managed branded residences on Phuket restrict how long an owner may occupy their own home, because the unit is expected to spend much of the year in the hotel's rental inventory. An address that carves out homes for genuine year-round residency is answering a different brief, and it is a rare enough thing on this island to be worth confirming in writing for the specific unit you are shown.

Banyan states the position as adjacent to the beach. Owners sit inside Laguna Phuket, so the golf course, the lagoon system, the beach clubs, the restaurants, the spas and the 24-hour medical clinic are existing infrastructure on the same land rather than a later phase of a masterplan.

Unit count, the completion date, the ownership structure and the price are not published in any document Banyan has supplied, so none of the four appears here.

The Embark view

What we think, including what we would question.

Who it suits

A buyer who wants hotel service without hotel scale, and who reacts to Garrya's restraint rather than to a brand that announces itself. The one and two-bedroom sizing makes it the most manageable of the Banyan addresses to own and let, and the homes cleared for full-time living answer a brief most branded residences on this island cannot.Read more

What it compromises

It is hotel-managed, which means the management agreement decides what you may actually do with the home, and 'a select number' of full-time-living units is not all of them. It is also adjacent to the beach rather than on it, and the smallest sizes here are apartment-scale rather than the villa-scale space elsewhere in the estate.Read more

What we would ask first

Which specific units carry the full-time-living clearance, in the sale documents rather than the brochure. Then the four questions every hotel-managed residence turns on: how many nights a year you may occupy your own home, whether the rental programme is optional or a condition of purchase, how income is split and what is deducted first, and what happens if the operator changes over a thirty-year hold.Read more

This is Embark’s opinion, not a sourced fact, and it is labelled that way deliberately.

Common questions

Residences at Garrya Phuket, answered plainly.

What is being sold at Residences at Garrya Phuket?

One and two-bedroom apartments and penthouses, from 57 to 316 square metres, inside Laguna Phuket on the Bang Tao shore, professionally managed by the Garrya Phuket hotel and Banyan Living. The penthouses carry private rooftop pools, Banyan states that golf membership is included with selected units, and that a select number of homes are available for full-time living. Stated in Banyan Group's Property Development Overview of 5 February 2026.

Can you live at Residences at Garrya Phuket full-time?

Banyan states that a select number of units are available for full-time living, which is unusual for a hotel-managed branded residence and is the most distinctive thing about this address. Most hotel-managed residences cap owner occupancy, because the home is expected to spend much of the year in the rental inventory. Because the developer says a select number rather than all, do not assume the unit you are shown is one of them: ask which specific units carry the clearance and get the answer in the sale documents rather than the brochure.

What is Garrya, and how does it differ from Banyan Tree and Angsana?

Garrya is Banyan Group's understated brand, built around calm and restraint, where Banyan Tree is the group's luxury flagship and Angsana its brighter, more social sibling. Inside Laguna Phuket you can buy into all three, plus the newer Bellaguna and Laguna Residences lines. They share the estate, the golf course and the services; they differ in character, in service level and in price, and the resale audience for each follows the brand. Choosing between them is mostly a question of which building you would actually want to walk into every evening.

What should be established before buying a hotel-managed residence?

Four things in writing. How many nights a year you may occupy your own home. Whether entering the rental programme is optional or a condition of purchase. How the rental income is split, and what is deducted before the split. And what happens to the arrangement if the operator changes, which over a thirty-year hold is a realistic possibility rather than a hypothetical one. A branded residence is a service contract attached to a home, and the contract is the part most buyers read last.

Facts on this page are current as of October 2026 and are drawn from Embark’s own market briefing and the developer’s published materials. Where a fact reads as being confirmed, we are verifying it with the developer before stating it.

Where we stand

Embark Estate is an appointed sales agency for this project, appointed by Banyan Group. We can put the developer's own current availability and pricing in front of you rather than a portal's.

In practice that means we work from the developer’s own price list and unit schedule rather than from what has reached a portal. It does not change what we will tell you: an appointment is not a reason to recommend a building, and we will still say when this one does not suit the brief. Our Bangkok appointments are stated on the Bangkok branded-residences register. The developer publishes its own channel for this project at www.banyangroupresidences.com.

We publish no yield or capital-growth figure for this project. The one market figure we quote is Knight Frank Thailand’s: typical Phuket condominium yields of 5 to 8 per cent a year and villas of 10 to 15 per cent (2024 year-end, before costs); a single building can do better or worse. Where an operator publishes audited numbers for a specific building we quote them with their date, because a guaranteed return is usually a price concession wearing a yield’s clothing.

A marked cell matches this project. It is a marker of sameness, not a score: a different shore is often the reason to go and look.
