Amal Development Company Limited.
Verified· 2026-08-05Amal Development is the Phuket developer behind Gardens of Eden, a US$315M, low-density luxury masterplan on a 33-acre site at the northern end of Bang Tao Beach. Led by an international team (CEO Alexander Chuvalov) with landscaping by Tierra Design's Martin Palleros, it delivered Thailand's first ETRO-branded residences and positions itself as a benchmark for wellness-and-nature-led luxury.
About the developer
Who is Amal Development? Amal Development (Amal Group) is a Phuket-based luxury developer built around a single flagship masterplan — Gardens of Eden — pursuing a strategy of sustainable, low-density luxury. It is led by an international team, with CEO Alexander Chuvalov, and is backed by private-equity fund DPD Invest.
What does it specialise in? Ultra-low-density, nature-led luxury residences. Gardens of Eden runs at roughly 14 units per rai versus 50–60 at neighbouring projects, set among gardens, lakes and parks landscaped by Martin Palleros of Tierra Design (also behind MontAzure). Its ETRO Residences are Thailand's first branded residences by the Italian fashion house and set a new island price record.
Where does it build? At the northern end of Bang Tao Beach on Phuket's premium north-west coast, across the Eden, Etro, Park and Lake components of the single estate.
Track record and quality. As a newer, single-project developer, Amal does not have a long delivery history, but Phase 1 is under construction with strong sales (THB 3.2bn in the first year), international branding (ETRO), award recognition and institutional PE backing — signals of a serious, well-funded project. Off-plan buyers should still track construction milestones.
Buying terms and rental. Freehold, leasehold or company structure depending on component, with a wellness-and-resort positioning that supports premium rental.
Who is it for — and who not? Amal suits a luxury buyer who wants a branded, low-density, design-and-nature-led residence in a prime Bang Tao location and a long investment horizon. It is not a budget or fast-delivery play — pricing is at the top of the market and the estate is still being built out.
