Chonburi Province has recently stepped out of the shadows of many of the Thai islands and into the spotlight as an incredible destination in its own right. Less crowded than most of the islands, more affordable than Bangkok and promising that real taste of Thailand that's already escaped so many regions, both investors and travellers alike are setting their sights on this highly desirable province. Specific rent yields and opportunities for rewarding investments vary enormously – turning a profit with a lower-end residential property is tricky, while higher-end tourist lets are in high demand for much of the year. Low property prices also help keep rent yields generally amiable.
