About Estate Samui Properties
Estate Samui Properties is a UK and Thai family managed real estate agency established in 2016, built on first-hand experience in the Koh Samui property market dating back to 2009.
Our journey began when we purchased land on the island and built our own investment villa for the thriving holiday rental market. Managing our own property gave us valuable insight into every stage of property ownership, from construction and investment to rentals and long-term management.
As our holiday rental business grew, we naturally expanded into property and villa management, helping other owners maximise the potential of their investments. This soon led to providing both holiday and long-term rental services for clients across Koh Samui.
Over time, many of our property management clients asked us to assist with the sale of their villas, while friends and acquaintances sought our guidance when purchasing property on the island. These experiences revealed a clear need for a real estate agency focused on honest advice, local expertise, and personalised service.
In 2016, Estate Samui Properties was established to help buyers and sellers navigate the Koh Samui property market with confidence. Having lived on the island since 2005, we combine extensive local knowledge with practical experience as property owners, investors, and real estate professionals.

Property Buyer
When we planned our move to Koh Samui for 2023 Estate Samui sprung to mind to help with our property search. We’d had the pleasure of staying at one of their villas a couple of times for vacation and they were always attentive and easy to communicate with.
Bob spoke with me on a virtual call before the move to answer my many questions on home ownership in Thailand and discussing costs of things to help us budget, this was a huge help.
Upon arrival to Koh Samui Bob spent many hours taking me to house viewings but it is his wealth of knowledge on the island, the specific areas, the local developers/properties, the buying process and legal requirements to purchase which were the biggest assets for me.
Bob found us the perfect villa in the perfect area and we are now happily settling into our new life here in Koh Samui.
Property Buyer
From the first contact with Bob, we were impressed. He asked questions for clarification of our needs and it was a pleasure to work with him finding our perfect home quickly.”
Property Buyer
I must commend the excellent representation and service received from Estate Samui Properties during a recent property transaction on my project in Maenam.
Bob's reassuring approach and ability to create synergy between myself, the client, and the purchasers, of one of our final building plots was most appreciated and in turn created the perfect relationship to proceed with the construction of the customers new property, upon completion of the land purchase.
Having been resident on Samui for over 21 years and actively developing in the area of Maenam since 2003, I was delighted to work with Bob and would welcome future opportunities to do the same.

Property Buyer
"When I decided to buy a property in Koh Samui, I contacted several real estate agents. Almost everyone wanted to sell me as quickly as possible and of course it wasn't always what I wanted. When I met with Bob from Estate Samui Properties, I found that he understood what I was looking for and what would be best for me. So, in a very short time, he showed me a property that I fell in love with at first sight and decided to buy it. He also helped me find a temporary rental and lawyers to finalize the purchase process. Therefore, I would like to thank him very much for his help and professional knowledge of the real estate market on Koh Samui as well for devoting a lot of time to me. So if someone wants to buy a property on Koh Samui, I highly recommend his professionalism and the "Estate Samui Properties" agency.
