Very quiet location, about 800 meter from main road, but very close to the sea. The beach there is small, closed from both side with corals stones – so it can be cleaner then other part of Wongamat beach.

The first two Siam Penthouse condos were built in Bangkok and they are the first condominiums in Thailand.

I was not inside the rooms, but ground floor looks totally ok, lounge area is fresh and clean, garden is well-groomed, swimming pool and other facilities are operating well.

The Cove Condominium

June 2nd, 2009 1 comment

“Unparalleled lifestyle’ is redefined by The Cove, an opulent 18-story seaside property giving a new definition of exclusiveness unto Thailand’s best-loved beach city of Pattaya. A dynamic destination on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, Pattaya brings together beautiful beaches, champion golf courses and lively entertainments – all within a short 90-minute drive from the capital. Pleasures and indulgences in total seclusion in the buzzing Pattaya may yet be beyond one’s wildest dream. Nevertheless, thanks to Petch Property Development, Pattaya/Chonburi’s pioneering and best-experienced property developer, a prime 70 rai of land on the perfectly secluded shore of North Pattaya, has been found and now sits The Cove, the new majestic beachfront 18-story condominium boasting its very own peaceful private beach, ideally crystal-clear water and excellent amenities.” – this lovely description goes from developer.

The Cove is located on the end of  Soi 18/1 Naklua Rd. The developer owned there 70rai of land (about 112,000 sqm), so the construction of condominium is just the beginning of huge project there.

Rachatee condotel is 12 floor building with 205 units, located on Soi 25 Naklua Rd., North Pattaya. It`s about 50 meters far from main road and about 600 meter far from Wongamat Beach.

Exterior

Main building is 11 years old, and was originally developed as Golden Pattaya Condominium. In 2003  Rachatee Group took over the condominium and made renovation to euro standard.

Entrance

There are pleasant communal facilities, like big swimming pool, gym, SPA-salon, covered parking etc. Condotel is well manage and popular with rentals, so the owners can get about 8% annual return – that pretty good, especially for somebody who looking for a small investment.

Units range:  there are variety of units size from 25 sqm (studio unit)  to 96 sqm (two bedroom apartment).

The prices for studio start from 790,000 Thai Baht (for small studio with city view). Condos with sea view (a little bit sea view) can be get for 1,2 mln Thai Baht.

Prices for rent start 11,000 Thai Baht per month and I think it`s possible to find even cheaper for long term.

Summary – Rachatee Condotel is  valuable for small money condominium with convenience location and variety amenities.

Parking

Units range:  studio 31 sqm – prices from 999,000 Thai Baht, two bedroom apartment 63 sqm (developer call it Deluxe) – prices from 1,9 mln Thai Baht and corner two bedroom apartment 66 sqm (with 4 balconies!!!) – prices from 2,2 mln Thai Baht.

None of units can have sea view, the best condos facing to the pool. There are some apartments on the first floor with private access to the pool

Studio apartment

. Developer – unknown company.  To my mind, the condominium was created for thais, small units, not the best quality of construction and finishing and reasonable price. But I can say that I like this project, for somebody with small budget it can be ideal solution. And it is new and ready to move in.

Wongamat Privacy Condominium – units range

May 21st, 2009 2 comments

The first two buildings (A and B) have only studio units, actually they are open-space units with large balcony. Ordinal units are 78 sqm and corner units – 90 and 116 sqm. The owners can build themselves as many bedrooms as they want, but it`s not so easy to create even one bright bedroom, because windows are located directly in front of the entrance of apartment. In this two buildings all condos facing outside from the pool, because they located from only one side of corridor. Apartments in A have view to the Soi 16/1 and apartments in B have view to the empty plot of land near by.

Layout-building-A-and-B

The prices are start from 3,3 mln Thai baht for 78 sqm apartment.. Sales in building B sales were not successful, so foreigner quota from developer are still available.

The designers improve layout for next two buildings C and D. First of all the layout of apartments has become more square (so more useful) and units are located on both sides of corridor, some of them have partly sea view. One bedroom condos with area from 68 to 82 sqm cost from 3,3 mln Thai baht and two bedroom apartments with area 82-123 sqm cost from 4 mln Thai baht.

All units in buildings D and C come from developer with fitted bathroom, build-in kitchen, tile floor and gypsum ceiling – all of materials are not the best quality. Within regular promotions, buyers can get aircon and water heater for free.

Sinking fund is 500 THB per sqm (one time payment) and maintenance fee is 20 THB per sqm per month (payment for the year ahead).
