If you love Thailand and the tropics, Koh Samui is an exciting place to build a villa. It ticks all the boxes when it comes to idyllic living. First off, there’s the weather. Koh Samui and its neighboring islands enjoy something of a micro-climate. There are more sunny days than in most other places and a monsoon that tends to be on the short side, occupying just a month. The sea is swimmable all year round, and with ocean breezes, the temperature is usually very bearable.

Koh Samui boasts all the retail opportunities that most people will need. It has all of the amenities that you would find in Bangkok. And then there are international hospitals, plenty of dentists, along with all kinds of wellness and health practitioners.

With an airport that provides connections to Bangkok, just an hour’s flight away, you’re never far from the capital’s transport hub and the gateway to the rest of Asia and beyond.

All of this makes for great living. Add in some thousand restaurants, scads of bars and clubs, and you have a dining and entertainment scene that few residents ever tire of. Life is so enjoyable here that few residents ever want to leave.

If you’re thinking of building a villa Koh Samui, then you will need to engage one or other of the island builders. Over the years of development, many teams have established themselves and cater for those who wish to build villas and properties. Here at Palm Construction we pride ourselves on being amongst the handful of best builders on the island. We have over 30 years of experience in the building trade – we worked in Australia, the European Union and the UK, before setting up on Koh Samui. Once here, we set about creating a one-stop service for all building requirements.

Gone are the days when those who wanted to build a villa Koh Samui had to be constantly present, juggle different teams of specialists and ensure, all by themselves, that every regulation was adhered to. It could be done, and often with great success – but it wasn’t without headaches.

These days, the entire process is streamlined and everything is much easier. We undertake whatever services you need us to provide. In most cases this would be the actual construction, of course, but since we also offer turnkey solutions, you might want us to do other tasks, such as help look for land, survey it and check land titles. You may need to have an access road built, a deep well dug, or for the villa to be connected to the national water and/or electricity grid. We are used to doing all of these.

Koh Samui isn’t too far from the mainland so the transportation of building materials is always going to be extremely reasonable. Imagine the efforts and costs required to build on a remote island and you will see that choosing Koh Samui makes sense. And while we’re on the subject of materials, costs have come down over the years, thanks to more efficient logistics and transportation. And there’s a greater variety of materials thanks to easier imports. We use selected best materials only, in order to give your property longevity as well as a beautiful appearance.

Once the villa is built, you may wish us to set up maintenance services, security and even letting services on your behalf. Again, these lie well within our scope.

And if you already possess a villa and have renovation work to be done, no matter if it is big or small, we will be able to provide the appropriate teams. We can, for example, remodel a kitchen and provide the best of interior design. Equally we can landscape a garden and turn a wilderness into a green and leafy retreat.

We have a reputation for excellence and have helped raise the bar when it comes to building villas and properties on Koh Samui. We also ensure that our constructions are sustainable, that they are as ecological as possible and sit in harmony with the island’s natural drainage systems.

Palm Construction can act throughout the actual building process as your project manager and get the job done, even if you are back home or about your travels. We pride ourselves on meeting deadlines and ensuring that every step of the building process is finished to your satisfaction before we move on the next step. We report back to you at every stage and offer complete transparency.

If you have a project in mind, no matter at what stage it is – whether it is just a vague idea or if you already have completed plans – we invite you to come and talk to us on a completely informal basis. You may be surprised at how reasonable costs are for building a villa Koh Samui and setting up a brand new life here on the island.
