3-Bed Apartment with Private Pool at Kiara Residences, Layan

Private pools rarely come with apartments, but this 251 sqm three-bedroom unit at Kiara Residences in Layan has its own, along with two bathrooms, garden access and a third-floor position looking over the greenery.

The development sits at Layan Bay on Phuket's north-west coast and was built by Minor International with Kajima, with management by Minor Hotels — the group behind the Anantara and Avani brands. Residences combine open-air living space with hotel-grade servicing, and the beach, golf courses and marinas of the north-west are within a short drive, as is the airport.

Ownership of this unit is leasehold. The pool, floor area and hotel management place it between a condominium and a villa: villa-style space without grounds to maintain.
