Overview
Palm by the Sea is a small, off-plan apartment enclave in Maenam on Koh Samui's north coast, roughly 200 metres from Maenam Beach, with a Balinese-influenced design and studio/1-bedroom units from around 30 sqm. Multiple listing aggregators consistently describe the project as 11 total apartments with completion expected in 2026. Critically, units here are sold on a registered leasehold running to 2055, not a freehold condominium title — this is not the standard Thai Condominium Act freehold structure and buyers should have the lease terms independently reviewed before committing. No aggregator discloses the project's developer name or per-building floor count, so both are left unstated here rather than guessed; confirm directly with the sales agent. As an off-plan project, no live rental history exists yet — the rent range shown is a directional estimate based on comparable small studio/1-bedroom units elsewhere in Maenam, not a confirmed lease figure. Coordinates are an approximate placement near Maenam Beach based on the project's stated location, not an independently pinned address.
