Ban Tai runs along the south coast between Thong Sala and Ban Kai, and it is the easiest area on the island to live in day to day: the pier, hospital, schools and supermarkets are all a few minutes away.
The market is broad, from inland plots and simple long-term houses to beachfront land, which is why so much of the island's steady rental stock sits here.
