No airport. By design.
Phangan has no airport. The 20-minute ferry from Samui is the filter that keeps the island from becoming what Samui became. Reachable, but not overrun.

Some islands sell. Phangan changes you.
“Phangan is a hub of energy — softer than Samui, deeper than Phuket, and 20 minutes from both. We’re the Hubthat helps you understand why.”
The White Lotus effect.
White Lotus Season 3 (HBO, 2025) was filmed on Samui — driving 88% search spikes and 44% booking increases. Sophisticated travelers skip the crowds and find Phangan instead.
The price window.
Land prices on Phangan are 30–50% below Samui and 70–80% below Phuket. Lease-based properties are an additional 20–30% cheaper. The window narrows as infrastructure improves.

Where it all happens
Our Story
I came to Phangan to build a chatbot.
Three years later, I’m still here.
My name is Liran. Everyone calls me Liam. (Miller — like the beer. It works.)
I’ve been using AI tools in my daily work since 2022 — back when most people were still calling it fancy autocomplete. I was looking for ways to improve communication in tourism, specifically over WhatsApp. In early 2023, I left Israel for Koh Phangan to validate the product.
The chatbot works. We call it Kaite Bloom. But something else happened along the way. A friend asked for help finding a villa. I introduced him to a developer I trusted. He told three friends. Three years and dozens of transactions later — this is what we do.
“Most buyers don’t know which questions to ask before signing. Most lawyers come in too late. KPIH is what we built in response.”
We built KPIH as a Hub— a connection layer between international buyers and the right developers, lawyers, and local services. We don’t sell. We navigate.

Two brands. One operation. Real infrastructure.

How KPIH makes money in plain English.
Three revenue streams. All disclosed. By the time you finish this page, you’ll understand our business better than most buyers understand their own agents.
01Primary
Developer Marketing Fee
We run digital marketing campaigns for vetted developers — paid by us, on our budget. We qualify their leads through our AI platform in 6 languages. When a buyer we introduced closes, the developer pays us a fixed marketing fee. This does not change your purchase price.
02Optional
Buyer's Protocol
For buyers who want hands-on navigation — search, vetting, legal coordination, registration, move-in support. THB 100,000 (~$2,800). Fee disclosed up front. Entirely optional. You can buy from a developer we introduce without it.
03Post-Purchase
Lifestyle Services
KPIH Studio — property styling and setup by Chen (selecting finishes, sourcing furniture, soft furnishings). Property Management — connections to vetted local managers. Separate pricing. Disclosed before any work begins.
What KPIH is: A marketing platform for vetted developers · An optional consulting service for buyers · A Thai-registered tech company (Kaite Bloom Co., Ltd.) · A local team that lives on Phangan year-round.
When buyers need legal contracts, tax advice, or company formation — we connect them with independent Thai professionals.
We navigate. They execute.
Knowledge Hub
How foreigners actually own property in Thailand.
Let’s clear something up immediately: foreigners cannot own land in Thailand. That’s been the law since the 1950s. Here are the three real paths that work.
01Path
Leasehold
A 30-year lease registered at the Land Office. Your name on the official registration. You own the lease right + the structure via Superficies.
- 20–30% cheaper than equivalent freehold
- Registered at the Land Office
- Inheritable within the 30-year term
- The clean path — no grey areas
02Path
Thai Company
A Thai limited company with a legitimate Thai partner (spouse, family, or genuine business co-owner) holding 51%. The company owns the land.
- For buyers with real Thai relationships
- Requires legitimate Thai shareholder
- 2026 enforcement is strict — no nominees
- We don't help with nominee structures
03Path
Treaty of Amity
For US citizens only. Allows 100% ownership of a Thai company without a Thai partner — bypassing standard Foreign Business Act restrictions.
- US citizens only (1966 treaty)
- Great for business ownership
- Does NOT permit land ownership
- We'll explain what it does and doesn't do
Communication Hub
A real conversation, before any decisions.
20 minutes on Zoom or WhatsApp. No fees. No pressure. Bring your situation, your questions, your skepticism. We’ll tell you honestly whether Phangan makes sense for you — and if it doesn’t, we’ll tell you that too.
