Overview
Tropical Seaview Residence is a 3-floor, 36-unit low-rise hillside condominium above Lamai, completed in December 2013 (floor count, unit count and completion date confirmed on FazWaz's own structured project page), built up the slope so most units capture wide Gulf-of-Thailand sea views from private balconies. Studios and one-bedroom units, an infinity-edge communal pool and on-site rental management make it a popular foreign-freehold choice for remote workers, retirees and investors who want a view and holiday-let potential at a lower entry price than the north-coast villas. Buyers can own within the building's 49% foreign quota — confirm remaining quota per unit — and the development's low-rise scale reflects Koh Samui's strict coastal building-height rules. The project's developer is not disclosed by any source checked — confirm with the on-site management office.
