Yara Residences at Banyan Treevillas in Pasak, Phuket

Yara Residences at Banyan Tree is a villa by Banyan Group Residences in Pasak, inside the gated Laguna Phuket resort community near Bang Tao Beach, Phuket. Construction is still under way: completion is set for the fourth quarter of 2026.

The villa has three bedrooms across 414 m², built on a single storey beside a quiet lagoon inside the community. The layout is open-plan: the living room flows to a terrace for alfresco dining, there is an infinity pool and a jacuzzi, and the ensuite bedrooms are surrounded by garden. One storey instead of two means a house with no stairs, which matters for older guests and for small children alike.

If you are going to live here

Laguna Phuket is a gated community with access control: the shopping village, signature restaurants, Banyan Tree spas and Laguna Golf Phuket already run, rather than being promised. The nearest medical facility is Thanyapura, 2.4 km away. The single-storey layout beside the lagoon suits quiet living with no neighbours above or below, not dense development.

If you are buying to let

Banyan Group Residences runs the management itself: 24-hour concierge and professional management come with ownership, and the Banyan Tree name is one holiday guests searching for a Phuket villa already recognise. The lagoon setting and the open-plan layout suit premium nightly letting to families — but letting can only start once the villa is handed over in late 2026, not immediately.

If you are holding for capital growth

Construction is still under way, with completion set for the fourth quarter of 2026 — part of the construction-stage gain still lies ahead for this house, but not much of it: the building is close to finished, not at the groundbreaking stage. Laguna Phuket's closed format and the Banyan Tree name hold liquidity in the resort market better than an unbranded development outside the community.
