Skypark Elara Lakelands Phuket
Skypark Elara Lakelands Phuket is a condominium development of one to three-bedroom apartments of 54 to about 186 square metres in three seven-storey blocks totalling around 220 units in its first phase, overlooking lagoons in the Lakeside zone of Laguna Lakelands, Banyan Group's community adjacent to Laguna Phuket, launched in September 2024 under the Skypark brand.
Skypark Elara is the Skypark building at Laguna Lakelands, on the site adjacent to Waterside (formerly Lakeview) Residences. Skypark Celeste is a different, completed Skypark building inside Laguna Phuket by the golf course, and Skypark Lucean is the brand's tower in Jomtien, Pattaya.
Overlooking lagoons in the Lakeside zone of Laguna Lakelands, adjacent to Laguna Phuket, in the developer's words. Not a beach address: Banyan states no distance to Bang Tao beach and we state none.

Who sells Skypark Elara Lakelands Phuket?

Both structures exist in this project. Which one attaches to the specific unit changes what you own, so establish it early.
These do not add up to a single term. Only the left block is a right registered today; what follows depends on the wording of the clause and on who stands behind it when the time comes.
Term. Freehold within the 49 per cent foreign quota, or registered leasehold, as Banyan Group states for Laguna Lakelands condominiums (4 June 2026); route and term per unit not published.
What to establish before committing
Banyan Group's guide of 4 June 2026, read 23 September 2026: “Foreign buyers can own Phuket condos for sale at Laguna Lakelands under freehold title within the 49% foreign ownership quota of the building's total floor area, or on a secure registered leasehold basis.” That is stated for Laguna Lakelands condominiums generally, not for this building by name, and the project page itself says nothing on tenure. Which route a specific apartment is offered on, and how much of the quota is left in its block, is a written question before reserving. The lease term and any renewal wording are not published, so we print none. General information, not legal advice.
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.
What we think, including what we would question.
Who it suits
A buyer who wants a new one to three-bedroom apartment over water in a young community beside Laguna Phuket, can wait for completion, and is choosing between the freehold quota and a registered lease with the papers in hand.
What it compromises
Lagoons, not the sea, and no beach distance stated. Not finished as far as the developer has said, so this is a purchase from a show unit and a payment schedule. Lakelands' town centre and trails are largely artist's impressions today. Completion per block, remaining stock and price are unpublished. Not for a buyer who needs to move in this year or wants beach frontage.
What we would ask first
The completion date per block and the stage-payment protection; the freehold quota left in the specific block, or the lease terms; the exact size of the unit from its plan, since the developer's top figure varies; the dated price list; the common fee and sinking fund.
This is Embark’s opinion, not a sourced fact, and it is labelled that way deliberately.
Considering Skypark Elara Lakelands Phuket?
We will tell you what we know, what we are still confirming, and whether it fits what you are actually looking for.
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.
What that means in practice
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/thailand/phuket/skypark-elara-lakelands-phuket.
We publish no yield or capital-growth figure for this project, and no island average. Where an operator publishes audited numbers for a specific building we quote them with their date; otherwise we say nothing, because a guaranteed return is usually a price concession wearing a yield’s clothing.

What Skypark Elara Lakelands Phuket actually is.
Elara is the second condominium at Laguna Lakelands, launched by Banyan Group on 4 September 2024 on the site adjacent to Lakeview, now Waterside, Residences, “with equally serene lagoon views” in the developer's words. The first phase is three low-rise seven-storey blocks totalling around 220 units. On the July 2026 master plan it is number 54, at the south-east of the Lakelands site by the Laguna Park 2 main entrance.

One to three bedrooms from 54 square metres. The top of the range is stated by the developer as both 186 and 183 square metres in the same launch release, and as 183 in a later one, so we give the band as 54 to 183-186 rather than pick. Each apartment has a balcony; the launch release describes foldable work closets. The roof carries the Skypark signature: an infinity-edge pool, terraces, a barbecue area and walking paths over the forest and lagoons.
Show units, a one-bedroom and a two-bedroom, opened at the Laguna Lakelands Sales Gallery on 28 January 2025. Banyan's awards release of 1 June 2025 still called Elara upcoming, and no later developer page gives a completion date, so the build state is not established here.
Tenure for Lakelands condominiums is one thing Banyan does state, in its guide of 4 June 2026: freehold within the 49 per cent foreign quota, or registered leasehold. It is stated for the community, not for Elara by name, and is modelled here as mixed, confirmed per unit.
The total beyond phase one, completion per block, how many of the roughly 220 units remain and the price are not on the developer's pages as of 23 September 2026. Banyan published a from-price at launch; we print no price until the developer clears a current one. From 54 square metres, much of the building sits below the THB 20 million floor this register uses.
Where this sits against the register’s floor. No current price is published. From 54 square metres, much of this building sits below the THB 20 million floor this register uses, and the developer's own lapsed launch price sat well below it. It has a page because buyers ask about it, not because it qualifies.

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.
Skypark Elara Lakelands Phuket, answered plainly.
What is being sold at Skypark Elara?
One to three-bedroom apartments of 54 to about 186 square metres in three low-rise seven-storey blocks, around 220 units in the first phase, overlooking lagoons in the Lakeside zone of Laguna Lakelands, the Banyan Group community adjacent to Laguna Phuket. The roof carries an infinity-edge pool, terraces, a barbecue area and walking paths. Per Banyan's launch releases of 4 September and 4 November 2024, read 23 September 2026.
Is Skypark Elara finished?
We have not established it. Show units opened on 28 January 2025, Banyan's release of 1 June 2025 still called the project upcoming, and no developer page read on 23 September 2026 gives a completion date for any block. Completion per block, and the stage-payment protection that goes with it, is the first written question.
Is Skypark Elara freehold or leasehold?
Either, by the developer's own statement for Lakelands condominiums: Banyan's guide of 4 June 2026 says foreign buyers can own them “under freehold title within the 49% foreign ownership quota of the building's total floor area, or on a secure registered leasehold basis”. That is stated for the community, not for Elara by name; which route a specific apartment is offered on depends on how much of its block's quota is left. Establish it in writing before reserving; the lease term and renewal wording are not published. General information, not legal advice.
How does Elara differ from Waterside and from Skypark Celeste?
Waterside is the first Lakelands condominium, next door, in four and seven-storey blocks with a 60-metre rooftop pool and private pools on selected units; Elara is the second, three seven-storey blocks with a rooftop infinity-edge pool and published sizes of 54 to about 186 square metres. Skypark Celeste carries the same brand but is a finished building inside Laguna Phuket by the golf course, not at Lakelands. Same developer and owner programme across all three.
What does Skypark Elara cost?
No price is published on this page. Banyan published a from-price at launch in 2024, and Embark prints no coastal price until the developer clears a current one. Ask us on WhatsApp (+66 64 773 5098) or LINE (@embarkestate) and we will come back with what Banyan will confirm in writing, block by block.
Facts on this page are current as of September 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.
