Overview
Emerald Bay View is a hillside apartment and pool-villa complex above Lamai in Maret, developed by Premium Construction Co., Ltd. -- the same developer behind the nearby Ruby Residence -- and completed in January 2024. Built into lush greenery hills overlooking the Gulf of Thailand, every unit comes with its own private pool, fitted kitchen and built-in wardrobes, spanning a one-bedroom apartment (Type C, 53 sqm), a two-bedroom apartment (Type B, 105 sqm), and three- and four-bedroom pool villas (Types V3 and V4, 227-382 sqm). FazWaz's own project page contains an internal conflict on total unit count -- the descriptive overview text says "24 residential units" while the same page's structured project-overview field states 53 units across 3 floors -- and this discrepancy was not resolved by guessing since it persists identically across other aggregators pulling the same underlying data; verify the current total with the developer or juristic office. It sits within 10 minutes of Lamai Beach and the Hin Ta and Hin Yai Rocks landmark, about 25 minutes from Central Festival Samui and 31 minutes from Samui International Airport. Coordinates were independently pinned in Google Maps against the development's own "Résidence Emerald Bay View" Business Profile (condominium complex, 4.9 stars, 26 reviews, address F25H+7XG Maret) rather than taken from FazWaz's street-view link, which was found to reuse an identical coordinate on the unrelated Ruby Residence page and could not be trusted as project-specific. Apartment units (Type B/C) can be owned freehold within the standard 49% Condominium Act quota; the pool villas (Type V3/V4) sit on land that cannot be foreign-freehold and are instead held on a registered lease or through a Thai company -- confirm structure per unit. No live rental listing was found for this project; the rent range shown is a directional estimate based on comparable Lamai-area hillside apartment-and-villa developments of similar unit mix and vintage, not a confirmed lease figure.
