Koh Lanta has continued to increase in popularity over the past 10 years, and this popularity has seen an evolution from a purely backpacker destination to a well facilitated tropical family holiday island.
This has seen a steady increase in the number of visitors to Koh Lanta (circa 300.000+ annually) and this has created a very strong demand for the limited supply of prime real estate available.
The island is not the most well known tourist destination in the region where Phuket has dominated for decades as the major hub and best known place for holiday and real estate investments.
Then again, as Phuket and the rest are reaching their peak of development, discerning holiday makers, tourists and investors alike has started to look for alternative destinations whish represents not only a well run commercial center, but something more special, more authentic Thai - Koh Lanta definitely fits the bill.
With the arrival of several 5-star resorts and the construction of a bridge under way, Koh Lanta is still far from reaching its full potential.
If you want to draw advantage of the continually increasing land prices now is definitely the time to invest.
