Overview
IO Villas is a 20-unit, 2-building pool-villa community on Tongsai Road in Bo Phut, Koh Samui's north-east coast, developed by IO LANTA CO., LTD. and completed in May 2026, confirmed via FazWaz's own structured project page. Units are 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom villas across two living/basement floors, each with a private pool, smart-home technology and an optional personalized furniture/electronics package, spread across roughly 5,600 sqm of hillside project area with tropical-grove and glimpsed sea views. FazWaz's own facilities data confirms 24-hour security, CCTV, and conventional (non-EV) on-site parking at a 200% parking-to-unit ratio, plus a pet-friendly policy allowing all kinds of pets. The developer markets the project with a freehold Chanote title on the villa structure itself; per FazWaz's own FAQ for the project, the underlying land -- as with all Thai landed villas -- cannot be held foreign-freehold and instead sits under a Thai company or registered long-term lease (standard 30-year terms, renewable to a 90-year total), so buyers should confirm the exact tenure and lease documentation before committing. Coordinates were independently self-pinned in Google Maps against the developer's own Business Profile ("IO Villas", Tongsai Rd, Bo Put -- 5.0 stars, listed as a construction company, not marked permanently closed), landing within roughly 150m of FazWaz's own street-view geotag for the project. No live FazWaz rental listings were found for this project at time of research, so the rent range shown is a directional estimate anchored to comparable Bo Phut/Choeng Mon-area 3-bedroom freehold pool villas of similar sale price, not a confirmed lease schedule.
