Organised by Thailand Property, the country's largest property portal, and the Dot Property Group, the inaugural Dot Property Thailand Awards 2017 honoured the absolute best projects, developers and companies that contribute to real estate in the country.
Phuket-based homebuilder Blue Horizon was the star of this year's awards. The firm took home Best Developer Phuket while its Grand Himalai development was honoured with the Best Mixed-Use Development and Best Mid-Range Condo Development Phuket awards.
"We are honoured to have received this award and have worked very hard to get here. We feel extremely privileged to have been considered. We strive for excellence and are thrilled to know we have been recognised as the leaders in the industry," Mr. Andres Pira, CEO and Founder of Blue Horizon, says. "Blue Horizon is very much the leader in the market because we combine many things so we can offer our clients the best in terms of return on investment, quality, location, branded management companies and facilities within each of our projects. We are visionaries and know how to set ourselves apart from others."
Staying in Phuket, the upscale Botanica Luxury Villas scooped up Best Villa Development Phuket while The View was a worthy winner of Best Luxury Condo Development Phuket. Best Boutique Developer Phuket was bestowed upon Kata Sea View Condotel, the firm behind Splendid Condo.
In Samui, Horizon Homes was named as Best Developer Samui with its Horizon Residences and Horizon Villas developments propelling it to victory. A pair of projects from award-winning Thai designer Bodin Sritrakul, Pool Villa 18 Samui and Sky Dream Villa, were also honoured.
