			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="ArticleText" style="margin:4px;">The Estate Phuket is an exclusive community of custom-designed homes situated on Phuket’s picturesque and stunning Eastern coastline with panoramic views across the iconic Phang Nga Bay.</p>
<p>Unlike the West coast of Phuket, where the race for land has placed residential, retail and resort properties in close conflict and even closer proximity to one another, the Eastern shores allow discerning buyers an opportunity to own an un-spoilt and secluded piece of paradise.</p>
<p>Ideally located no more than fifteen minutes drive from Phuket International Airport and five minutes from Thailand’s premiere Golf Course – the Jack Nicholas designed Mission Hills Resort &amp; Golf Course, The Estate can be your escape and gateway to one of the most spectacular natural environments in South East Asia.</p>
<p>Phuket has long been the favoured destination for golfers and families alike, but now with the completion of three World Class Marinas, Phuket is fast attracting seasoned Yachtsmen and women from around the world who want state of the art facilities and unparalleled sailing destinations. The Estate is perfectly situated on the leeward side of Phuket to afford homes protection from the South-West monsoons and easy access to these modern, deep water marinas.</p>
<p>In addition to this, Phuket now boasts a comprehensive IT infrastructure, international hospitals and schools, a full range of professional service companies, foreign language newspapers, international business associations, social clubs a wide range of sporting and recreational activities, many of Asia’s famed and leading hotels, department stores and an ever increasing range of international cuisine and chefs.</p>
<p>Identified by institutional investors as Phuket’s last remaining area for high-end coastal development, the developer has seized this opportunity to create a customized community of luxury homes on approximately 45,000 square meters of land overlooking the unforgettable headland of Leam Yang and the limestone pinnacles that Phang Nga Bay is renowned for. In fact few developments in South East Asia can boast the average plot size that The Estate provides – 3,750 square meters. Matthew D. Rayner, President and CEO of Estate Group, revealed in a recent interview “The Estate Represents an excellent investment opportunity compared to the West Coast – in plain English : more land, less money – a remarkable combination of lifestyle and investment opportunity that cannot be offered anywhere else in South East Asia”.</p>
<p>Each home has been uniquely designed by a team of award winning architects to maximize the natural beauty of the local environment and vistas and to compliment the properties of the tropical Thai climate. The Estate embraces the principals of sustainable development and strives to protect the unique natural beauty of this island oasis.</p>
<p>From a Property Management perspective, The Estate has recently confirmed the appointment of CB Richard Ellis, Phuket’s leading property management company as the manager for this unique development. CB Richard Ellis’ Phuket Director, Mr. James Saunders said “We are very proud to have been selected for this prestigious development and we feel that our values and vision match those of The Estate.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Located approximately 862 kilometers south of Bangkok is Phuket, Thailand&#8217;s largest island, which is often dubbed as the pearl of the Andaman, or the pearl of the south. Its natural resources- rocky peninsular, limestone cliffs, white powdery beaches, tranquil broad bays and tropical in-land forests contribute to making it the South&#8217;s wealthiest, busiest, most visited and most popular island and province.</p>
<p>Nestled in the tropical zone off the west coast of the southern part of Thailand in the Andaman Sea and the Indian Ocean, the province covers an area of approximately 543 square kilometers (excluding small islets). It is estimated that Phuket Province covers an area of approximately 590 square kilometers if its 39 other small islands are included. The islands total length, from north to south, is estimated at 48.7 kilometers and approximately 21.3 kilometers wide.</p>
<p>Phuket borders on Phang-nga Province to the north. The other 3 sides are encircled by the Andaman Sea the place where many of the best diving sites are located. The island is connected to Phang-nga Province by Sarasin Bridge and Thep Krasattri Bridge.</p>
<p>Staying on the island is easy, as there are only two seasons in a year &#8211; the rainy season (May to October) and the hot season (November to April). The low season of phuket is between September and October as they are the wettest months. The best period for a visit, is from November to February, when it is possible to see the clear blue sky, feel the fresh sea breeze and marvel at the crystal clear water while lying on powdery, palm-fringed beaches. Average temperatures ranges between 23°C and 33°C.</p>
<p>Phuket&#8217;s topology is exceptional with 70 percent of its area covered with mountains which stretch from north to south and the remaining 30 percent being plains located in the central and eastern parts of the island. The island does not have any major rivers except for a total of 9 brooks and creeks.</p>
<p>Phuket is divided into 3 administrative counties namely Amphoe Muang, Amphoe Thalang and Amphoe Kathu.</p>
<p>Phuket has a lot more to offer its visitors other than its natural heritage sea, sand, sky, beach, forest, and world renowned diving sites. Sino-Portuguese architecture casts its spell delighting travelers to the city, while Phuket-style hospitality has never failed to impress visitors from all walks of life. In addition, accommodations ranging from world-class resorts to tropical-style bungalows have warmly catered to the different needs of travelers. For seafood lovers, there is a lot more to sample than just Phuket&#8217;s famous lobster. Altogether, these characteristics have made Phuket a truly unique destination.</p>
