Back in the day, the market was significantly smaller and less developed than it is today, with just a handful of high-rise luxury buildings compared to today.
The major boom in the Pattaya Condo market started in the mid-2000s, in line with the area’s growth as a major popular tourist destination and a favored location for both expatriates and property investors.
The surge
in condominium development has been driven by both home and international
demand, with numerous high-rise buildings dotting the skyline offering a range
of luxury amenities and modern living spaces. Today, it is estimated that there
are over 400 various condominium buildings in total including the
Greater Pattaya area condos here, Wongamat area condos here
and
Jomtien area condos here.
Top Picks for Luxury Condos in Pattaya
Over
the years, I have had the wonderful pleasure of living in this vibrant city and
viewing thousands of Pattaya condos. However, these two condominium
developments distinctively stand out as my top picks:
-
Saranchol Condo (1994) Wongamat Beach
: 1 Building, 37 Floors, 97 Units
-
Royal Cliff Garden Condo (1997) Phratamnak Hill
: 4 Buildings, 20 Floors, 204 Units
Both
developments ooze prestigious exclusivity, high class, sophistication,
elegance, luxury, and unmatched locations.
Why Saranchol Condo Stands Out
Saranchol
Condo, completed in 1994, comprises 37 floors with 97 units. The building has
been meticulously maintained with an attentive management and maintenance team.
Location, Location, Location
Saranchol
Condo’s beachfront location and proximity to Pattaya’s finest dining, shopping,
and entertainment areas make it an ideal place for both relaxation and
excitement. Situated on Wongamat Beach, Saranchol Condo has its own private
entrance directly onto the beach. Nearby amenities include:
-
Centara Grand Mirage Beach Resort
-
Pullman Pattaya
-
Raimon Land’s Northpoint and Zire Condominiums
-
Surf and Turf Beach Club
-
Glass House Restaurants
- Terminal 21 shopping mall (1.8 km)
-
Central Festival Center (3.6 km)
-
Bangkok Pattaya Hospital (3.3 km)
-
Regents International School (14.4 km)
Luxurious Living Spaces
Saranchol
Condo offers generously sized units, including 156, 256, and 340 sqm options,
with a penthouse of 693 sqm. Thanks to the building's robust foundations,
structure, and design, owners have the freedom to infuse their personal taste
into their units. Most units have been thoroughly remodeled and renovated,
showcasing unique, spacious open-plan designs, decorations, furnishings, and
sea-view balconies. Unlike today’s modern condos, where units often look
identical, each unit in Saranchol Condo is distinctively styled.
Communal Facilities

Condo boasts great facilities, including:
-
Fitness

Influential Community
Saranchol
owners and residents are a mixture of prominent and wealthy Bangkok Thais (65%)
and affluent foreigners (35%). Most other condo buildings in Pattaya have
already reached the 49% foreign ownership quota.
Exclusivity and Privacy
Saranchol
Condo offers an exclusive living experience with only three units per floor
(excluding the penthouse floors), ensuring privacy and tranquility for its
residents. The atmosphere is one of low occupancy, providing an escape from the
hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Rarity of Availability
Units
in Saranchol Condo are rarely available for sale or rent due to the
distinguished and wealthy owners, most of whom are not interested in selling or
renting. This rarity adds significant long-term investment value and
desirability to any available unit.
Value for Money
Incredibly,
prices in Saranchol Condo are very reasonable. The current average asking price
is only 113k per sqm. In comparison, its neighbor Raimon Land’s flagship
Pattaya Condo
Northpoint Wongamat Condo
has an average asking price of
170k Baht per sqm, and the newest nearby luxury high-rise
Arom Wongamat
(55 floors: 319 units) under
construction has a starting price of 198k Baht per sqm.
Current Market Trends
The
Pattaya real estate market continues to grow, driven by both local and
international demand. Despite global economic fluctuations, Pattaya remains a
prime destination for property investment due to its vibrant lifestyle,
beautiful beaches, and strong rental market. The luxury condo segment, in
particular, has shown resilience with consistent appreciation in property
values. Investors are attracted to Pattaya not only for its lifestyle offerings
but also for its potential for high returns on investment. The trend towards
high-quality, well-managed properties with comprehensive amenities is expected
to continue, making developments like Saranchol Condo highly desirable.
Conclusion
Saranchol
Condo is right at the top of what Pattaya has to offer in terms of prestige,
exclusivity, class, location, amenities, and a distinguished community.

The
owner of this condo completely remodeled and renovated it to a high standard in
2004. Today, the unit is in good condition but requires some superficial
modernization work, i.e., re-decorating new furniture and a new kitchen. It’s a
great opportunity for the new owner to add his or her own personal style and finish
to create a perfect home (without breaking the bank).
Details of this unit are available on our website here: ID: 5126 and here on our

If
