Koh Phangan vs Phuket — where should you buy?
Quick answer: Koh Phangan is primarily a lifestyle and wellness island with a thin institutional investor market compared with Phuket. Most foreign buyers researching Phangan are exploring Thailand island life — Phuket offers deeper condo inventory, legal pathways and resale liquidity. We do not sell Phangan property; start here for context, then compare Phuket.
