Overview
Paradise Villas Lamai is a 16-unit (7 completed to date) boutique pool-villa investment community in Maret, a few minutes inland from Lamai Beach on Koh Samui's south-east coast. Each 3-bedroom, 4-bathroom villa sits on a 400 sqm plot with 261 sqm of living area and a private pool, finished with a curated "Boho-Chic" furniture package and marketed move-in ready with optional end-to-end rental management. The developer's own official site (paradisevillas-lamai.com) names "Suan Tajoy Company Ltd." as developer in its footer copyright line -- a distinct legal entity from the project's own brand, clearing the self-referential-developer check -- while FazWaz's separate project page for the same development instead credits "Thai Li Villa Samui." Both sources describe matching villa specifications, confirming this is the same project, but the two primary sources disagree on the developer's exact legal name; this is disclosed rather than silently resolved, and should be confirmed directly with the sales office before transacting. Completion status is similarly two-sided: the developer's own site states 7 villas completed to date against FazWaz's overall "Off Plan" status for the full 16-unit project, most likely reflecting a phased build-out rather than a contradiction. Coordinates were independently confirmed in Google Maps: searching "Paradise Villas Maret Koh Samui" resolves to a single named business pin, "Paradise Villas Lamai" (5.0 rating, category "Housing complex," own website paradisevillas-lamai.com, phone 080 606 4050 -- matching the phone number listed on the developer's own site) at 9.4814692, 100.0273288, landing about 70m from FazWaz's own separately-cited street-view coordinate, accepted as a confirmed exact-project match. All kinds of pets are allowed and parking is provided at a 200% ratio, per FazWaz's structured fields. No live rental listing was available; the rent range shown is anchored to the developer's own stated "100k+ THB" estimated monthly rental and FazWaz's listed $3,020/month asking rent for a unit at this project, not a confirmed lease schedule.
