If you haven't lived on Phuket (or anywhere else) long term, 1 to 2 years/seasons, then most would suggest you rent before buying in to anything.  Condos are the only option, where you have complete control of ownership.

 

Doubt if 1 mill will get you much, or close to the surf (relative) if that's your thinking.

 

Since asking, think you need a lot more research, thus the advice to rent.

He is talking about 1 million EURO not Bath. Therefore, it will be enough.

If I have 1 mill USD to consider for housing, anywhere, TH wouldn't make my top 3 choices.  Depending on age, would consider the nomadic life.

 

Depends why you want to live in TH, as long as clean air & seas aren't a priority.  Or the ability to own a comfy home, vs a condo, though with that budget, it would be a comfy condo.

I've lived in Phuket for over 10 years. If I were you who is new to this place, I would consider rent a place first. After I got familiar with the areas, then maybe I'll decide what to do (buying or renting). On the other hand, if you insist on buying a property immediately, I recommend you get a reputable hotel resort. Since you plan to spend only 6 months of a year in Phuket, when you are not around, the hotel staff can do the cleaning and maintenance for you.

More than 200 arrested in Phuket nominee crackdown
Russians account for majority of foreigners accused of using Thai nominees for businesses

Ninety-eight foreign nationals, mostly Russians, were among 231 suspects arrested during a crackdown on nominee businesses in Phuket, with assets worth over 1.5 billion baht seized.

Police from the Economic Crime Suppression Division (ECSD) searched accounting and real estate firms in the island province as part of the operation, Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) commissioner Pol Gen Jirabhop Bhuridej said on Friday.
Charges are pending against 96 juristic persons and 135 individuals.

Of the individuals, there were 98 foreign nationals, mostly Russians, and 37 Thais who acted as nominees for foreign companies, said Pol Gen Jirabhop. The individuals were later granted bail.
