Rawai (Nai Harn) for condo buyers: prices, beaches, sea and checked projects
The southern part of Phuket: the Rawai coast and the Nai Harn, Ya Nui and Promthep locations. It can be considered for family living if separate trips to the chosen school and beach suit. The convenience of living there depends on the specific address and the daily routes.
What this page shows, from our own data only: the asking-price median of our listing sample where the area has at least 5 area-tagged listings, the beaches tagged to the area with car times and calm-sea months, the condo projects we have fact-checked here, and what our Russian area guide notes about the place. It ranks nothing.

The Land Office fees are computed on the Treasury's official assessed value, not on the asking price. The register is kept by administrative district — Mueang Phuket, Kathu and Thalang — and no committed file of ours maps Rawai to one, so this page assigns no official rate to the area; the matched official rate of every checked project is on its own page below.

What is here
- Coast: Rawai Beach and the Nai Harn, Ya Nui and Promthep locations in the southern part of the island. Yanui and Ya Nui are spelling variants of one name.

- Schools: HeadStart lists the Chaofah City campuses in Vichit and Cherngtalay; a Rawai campus is not listed. QSI International School of Phuket is located in Kathu. The route to the chosen school needs a separate assessment.
Why buyers look here

What to check
- A Rawai address does not mean walking access to Nai Harn.

Who it suits
- Buyers for their own living or holiday in the south of the island.
- Families for whom the chosen school and the trips to it suit.
