Khao Lak, the tranquil beach haven just north of Phuket, is about to undergo a transformative evolution with the launch of the Matalay Integrated Resort Town—a visionary 1,000-rai (400-acre) master-planned development set along the iconic Memories Beach.
Spearheaded by Thailand’s Boonsoong family and guided by seasoned hospitality professionals, including ex-JLL executive Mike Batchelor and Hospitality Capital Advisers, this bold project promises to reshape Khao Lak into a world-class destination.
🔹 Design Meets Nature – The project is crafted by global architecture firm Gensler, with biophilic design from Chiangmai Life Architects, and features a landmark art park by renowned architect Boonserm Premthada.
🔹 A Surf & Lifestyle Hub – With a vibrant surf village at its core, Matalay embraces the region’s growing identity as Thailand’s “Surf Town,” offering year-round beach culture, retail, dining, and eco-conscious living.
🔹 Sustainability & Community First – More than just a resort development, the project aims to uplift the local economy, preserve cultural heritage, and promote inclusive employment and environmental harmony.
🔹 Improved Connectivity – The new four-lane highway from Phuket enhances accessibility and is expected to significantly boost tourism and investment significantly flows into the region.
As Thailand’s tourism landscape evolves post-pandemic, Matalay stands as a benchmark for integrated, sustainable destination development—one that balances economic growth with cultural and ecological preservation.
📍 A destination to watch—and one that could redefine real estate and hospitality investment in southern Thailand.
