Why this resale
- ✓ 141,785 THB per m², the highest of the four VIP Space Odyssey lots listed here
- ✓ Only 3.1 m² larger than the studios: the premium is buying floor 8 and the outlook
- ✓ Plan is 4.50 by 7.10 m including terrace; the living and dining strip is 1.95 m wide
- ✓ Furniture advertised as included; leasehold; 2027 seller schedule
O-1801 asks 4,608,000 THB for 32.5 m², or 141,785 THB per m², much the highest rate of the four VIP Space Odyssey lots listed here. Set against O-2105 at 111,650, the extra 3.1 m² work out at 427,577 THB per square metre.
That figure is absurd as a price for space, which is the honest way to read it. Nobody is buying three square metres. They are buying the eighth floor and a sea outlook, and the whole question on this page is whether those are worth 1,325,490 THB to you.
The plan is narrower than the format suggests
Read the dimension lines rather than the label. A living and dining strip 1.95 m wide is narrow enough that furniture placement is decided for you, and it is the reason this apartment reads as a studio with a wall rather than as a small one-bedroom.
That is not a fault. It is what a one-bedroom looks like at 32.5 m², and for a tenant staying a month the wall is worth more than the width. It is a fault only if you are underwriting the apartment as though the extra area bought living space, because it did not.
The view is the asset, so treat it like one
Everything above says the premium is paying for elevation and outlook. A view is also the one thing you can lose after completion without anybody touching your apartment.
Six hundred metres from the sea, what you see from floor eight is a function of what stands between, and what is permitted to stand between later. Before you accept the premium, ask for the development’s own site plan and phasing, then ask what the neighbouring plots are zoned for. If the answer is that nothing can rise in front, the price makes sense. If nobody will answer, you are paying a premium for something the seller cannot guarantee.
What completes the price
| Line | Amount |
|---|---|
| Sinking fund | 12,800 THB, once |
| Water and electricity meters | 5,000 THB, once |
| Transfer cost shown in the pack | 46,080 THB |
| Common-area fee | 23,040 THB a year |
That is 86,920 THB in the first year. The annual charge runs at 709 THB per m², so this apartment carries about 1,900 THB a year more than a studio in the same building for the same services.
Before you reserve
- The site plan and phasing, and what may be built between floor eight and the sea.
- The seller’s payment history to the developer, with receipts.
- Written developer consent to the assignment.
- The management agreement, read for what any advertised percentage is calculated on.
- The furniture schedule as a contract appendix.
- When the lease term starts: at signature or at handover.
How the format performs in this bay is covered in one-bedroom condos in Rawai; the building itself is on the VIP Space Odyssey project review.
Frequently Asked Questions
Because it is not really being sold by the metre. At 32.5 m² it is 3.1 m² larger than the studios in the same building, and it costs 1,325,490 THB more than the cheapest of them. Expressed as area that is 427,577 THB per additional square metre, which is nonsense as a space calculation and exactly the point: what the premium buys is the eighth floor and a sea outlook, not floor area.
Less than the bedroom count suggests. The plan runs 4.50 m wide by 7.10 m deep including a 1.05 m terrace, and that width splits into a 2.45 m bedroom side and a 1.95 m strip holding the living area, dining and pantry. A living zone under two metres wide is a corridor with a sofa in it. Judge the apartment on that dimension rather than on the word bedroom.
What stands between floor eight and the water, and what is approved to be built there later. A sea outlook 600 m inland depends on the height of everything in front of it, and a view is the one feature that can be taken away after you buy without anyone touching your apartment. Ask for the site plan, the neighbouring plots' zoning and any later phase in this development.
It suits the long-stay demand the bay actually has better than a studio does, because a door matters over a month and does not over a weekend. What it does not do is earn a premium proportional to what this lot costs, so the format argument and the price argument point in different directions here and both need to hold.
A sinking fund of 12,800 THB, meter connections of 5,000, a transfer line of 46,080 and a common-area charge of 23,040 a year, 86,920 THB in the first year. The annual charge is 709 THB per m² and repeats regardless of occupancy, which on a higher-priced lot is the smaller of the two ongoing risks; the larger one is that you have paid for a view.
