Why Core Investments Selected This Project

How The Modeva passed our due diligence process.

This is an educational explanation, not a sales pitch. Each project published in the Core Investments curated portfolio is reviewed across the criteria below.

Developer Quality
AssetWise in partnership with Rhom Bho Property - established Thai developers with delivered residential and hospitality assets. Reviewed for delivery history, balance sheet posture and post-handover service.
Location Fundamentals
Approximately 700 metres from Bang Tao Beach, integrated within the wider Laguna Phuket ecosystem. Coastal land in this corridor is constrained and increasingly difficult to replace.
Tourism Demand
Bang Tao is one of Phuket's most resilient lifestyle submarkets, drawing repeat international visitors, long-stay digital workers, retirees and seasonal residents.
Hotel Operator Quality
Operated by The Esquire under a hotel-managed programme covering bookings, housekeeping, front-of-house and maintenance.
Rental Model
Hotel-managed rental programme structured on a 70/30 revenue share, designed to remove day-to-day landlord workload while sharing rental revenue with owners.
Capital Growth Drivers
Coastal land scarcity, established lifestyle infrastructure, ongoing Laguna investment and continued international demand for hotel-branded inventory in Bang Tao.
Supply vs Demand
Pipeline of large-scale, hotel-managed inventory within walking distance of Bang Tao Beach remains limited relative to international demand recovery and long-stay tourism growth.
Investor Suitability
Most aligned with passive-income investors, lifestyle buyers, retirees and those diversifying into Asia or buying their first international property.
Key Risks Considered
Off-plan delivery risk through completion in March 2027, operator performance, currency exposure, occupancy variability and longer holding periods typical of resort assets.

This project met our investment selection criteria and has therefore been included within the Core Investments curated opportunity portfolio.

Investor Matching

Who usually buys this project?

The Modeva most often aligns with the following investor profiles.

Before We Begin

Two ways to buy property overseas.

There are two ways to buy property overseas.

The first is purchasing an apartment that remains empty for most of the year.

The second is owning a residence within a professionally managed hospitality platform where the property has the potential to generate income while you're not using it.

The Modeva has been designed around the second approach.

When you're in Phuket, it becomes your private holiday residence. When you return home, the hotel management team markets your apartment, welcomes guests, manages reservations, housekeeping and maintenance, allowing you to participate in the rental income generated by your property.

It is a different style of ownership designed for investors who value both lifestyle and simplicity. Before discussing returns or forecasts, the first question is whether this investment structure matches your long-term objectives.

The Story

Why investors are looking at The Modeva.

Professional investors rarely make decisions based on attractive brochures. Instead, they look for projects supported by long-term demand.

The Modeva combines several characteristics that continue attracting attention from both Thai and international buyers.

  • Approximately 700 metres from Bang Tao Beach.
  • Positioned within Phuket's most established luxury lifestyle precinct.
  • Close to Laguna Phuket, one of Asia's best-known integrated resort destinations.
  • Supported by international tourism, expatriate demand and lifestyle migration.
  • Professionally managed hospitality programme designed for passive ownership.
  • Extensive resort facilities appealing to both owners and short-term guests.

No investment is risk free. However, these fundamentals help explain why Bang Tao continues to be one of Phuket's strongest performing coastal markets.

Selection Rationale

Why Core Investments selected The Modeva.

Core Investments evaluates every project against a consistent investment framework before deciding whether it deserves a place on our platform. We examine the location, developer, ownership structure, tourism demand, surrounding infrastructure, investment model, long-term supply constraints and suitability for international investors.

The Modeva met our selection criteria for several reasons.

  • Its location sits within one of Phuket's most mature lifestyle ecosystems.
  • Its scale allows the development to deliver resort facilities that smaller projects cannot economically support.
  • The hospitality model provides owners with a professionally managed investment rather than requiring them to become landlords.
  • The project sits within an area where long-term demand is supported by tourism, expatriate living, retirement migration and continued investment into surrounding infrastructure.

That combination makes The Modeva worthy of consideration for investors seeking both lifestyle and long-term wealth creation.

Differentiation

What makes this project different?

Rather than developing another residential condominium, the vision behind The Modeva is to create a destination.

The masterplan spans more than 25,000 square metres, incorporating 859 residences across seven buildings, surrounded by landscaped gardens, water features and one of the largest collections of resort facilities in its category.

Residents have access to 59 lifestyle facilities, including multiple swimming pools, wellness spaces, spa facilities, onsen, fitness centres, co-working lounges, restaurants, entertainment areas, children's facilities and dedicated pet-friendly spaces.

For investors, these amenities are more than lifestyle features. They improve guest experience, support occupancy, encourage repeat visitation and strengthen the property's competitive position within Phuket's resort accommodation market.

Developer

About the developer.

The Modeva is being developed by AssetWise in partnership with Rhom Bho Property, two established names within Thailand's residential development sector.

Their combined experience focuses on delivering modern communities designed for both owner occupation and investment ownership. The project demonstrates a clear emphasis on construction quality, contemporary architecture, hospitality integration and long-term community management rather than simply delivering apartments.

While every off-plan investment carries execution risk, experienced developers with established delivery records generally reduce many of the uncertainties associated with large-scale construction projects.

Location

Why Bang Tao?

The Modeva sits approximately 700 metres from Bang Tao Beach, inside the Laguna ecosystem and within minutes of the corridor's leading beach clubs, golf, schools, healthcare and Phuket International Airport.

Bang Tao's macroeconomic, tourism, infrastructure, supply-pipeline, capital-growth and 2026-2035 outlook analysis is maintained on a dedicated Submarket Intelligence Centre so it can be updated independently of any single project.

Section 2 · Why We Selected Seaside

Compared with the alternatives above, our research committee weighed the following factors. Where a peer scores higher in a category, we state that honestly.

  • Operator quality

    Seaside is delivered with International Hotel Operator, providing operator-led rental governance comparable to peer hotel-managed alternatives.

  • Entry price

    Seaside offers a lower entry point (From THB 4.2M (approx. USD 117,000)) and is the more capital-efficient alternative.

  • Cashflow

    Seaside projects a higher rental yield (~8% p.a.) than Seaside (5-8% p.a.); investors prioritising cashflow should weigh it on income grounds.

  • Capital growth

    Seaside carries a stronger central growth assumption (7-9% p.a.); the trade-off is typically a different submarket or risk profile.

  • Lifestyle positioning

    Seaside sits in Bang Tao, positioned as walk to the coast with a entry positioning band.

  • Balance

    Across rental income, capital growth, location and risk, Seaside is selected for its blended profile rather than dominance in any single dimension.
