It’s like walking into heaven, and it’s no mirage; it is your life. Such is the reward with Phuket villas for sale. “Paradise” may be a bit of a hackneyed word, but on Phuket, it plays for real. The expats from every corner move out to plant their feet firmly on this idyllic Thai island.

But what witchcraft is this that villas should attract such a huge sum of adventurers? Take your drink from the coconut and let’s deal.

First, most villas in Phuket are either perched as a gem deep inside jungles or on hills commanding a breathtaking sea view. Who wouldn’t like waking up to the sound of waves crashing in tune with songbirds? These architectural elegances would be grand enough to make even an architect’s blueprint blush; as wide a range as the buffets in any five-star resort, slewing from modern to traditionally charming. Every villa has its story whispered to those who get the privilege of listening. The final cherry on top, of course, that lures them into its fold-like bees on nectar-is the cost of living in Phuket. It’s not a life of misery, living on sandwiches in Phuket; the dollar can stretch that far to do yoga. Be it the rustic local street delicacy that sends your taste buds to Nirvana or the snazzy fine meal that competes with the best in Paris, Phuket does deliver.

There is community: just visualize yourself having a Friday night barbecue on deck, martini in hand, sharing tales with people from Sydney to Stockholm. It is that kind of cameraderie that just might be coming your way. These expats get interwoven into a tapestry so rich in cultural diversity that every neighbor brings something with him or her from home to make the melting pot exciting.
