Learn More About the Opportunity

Click here to view our investor information presentation to learn more about our concept, the advantages of Koh Phangan, and our business plan.

The asset is freehold, not leasehold. Two lease agreements, each 30 years, held by Tilta Co. Ltd ("Tilta"), a Thai company 100% owned by their local Thai partner. Tilta comes from a family present on Koh Phangan for seven generations. She is a real estate professional, known and respected on the island, and her partner/dad is a commercial designer.

Investment shares in a Singapore company — Aoia Hospitality Group Pte. Ltd. ("Co"), which is already incorporated, bank accounts open. Aoia does not directly own the resort — it controls it through a series of contractual agreements with Tilta. This structure is specifically designed to avoid investors scrutiny from Thai authorities. Tilta owns 100% of the Thai asset — there is a strong legal debate. In this process we are advised by professional and experienced law firms both in Israel and Thailand. Comprehensive investors agreements and a deeper dive into the legal aspects will be made available to investors who ask to move to the next phase.

Minimum ticket: 4.5M baht (~$140K USD) for a 1.45% equity (fully diluted) with a ~370K USD valuation. Equity discounts at 3% and 4% — the information will be given personally to people that show an interest in a larger investment.

Target EBITDA margin: ~40% at stabilization. Timeline to returns (for a 1% / 4.5M baht investment):

  • Year 1 (2027): investment made, no revenue.
  • Year 2: construction/setup — roughly breakeven P&L.
  • Year 3: first substantial EBITDA generation.
  • Year 4 (stabilized): estimated ~20% annual per-tax return on invested capital.
  • After Singapore/Thailand tax leakage, effective return closer to ~15–20% annually.

Investment structure: most of the capital gets in as a shareholder loan to the company, with a nominal amount as share capital. Purpose: loan repayments are returned first (principal + possibly slight interest), which is more tax-efficient than dividends in the early years.

Quarterly distributions intended (not annual) — they want investors seeing cash regularly. Continuous before distribution: must maintain 2 months of operating cash reserves + fund the annual CAPEX reserve line. Distribution is a priority once company is not accumulating profits for reinvestment into future projects.

Jaia is the prototype TopCo — it will initiate future projects (e.g., Jaia Sri Lanka). However:

  • Future projects are individually financed (SPLS model per project).
  • No capital from this project flows into daughter companies — each project raises its own funds separately.
  • Tilta sells its future projects under management fees, licensing fees, and white-label agreements.
  • Current Jaia shareholders get priority access to invest in future projects at better terms/valuations.
  • There is no dilution risk from future expansion — Aoia doesn't own new shares to finance future projects; contractual relationships guarantee the terms, either agreed on by the general assembly of the shareholders in the future.

Investors are entitled to an annual stay in Jaia for them and 1+ (including accommodation, F&B & activities). The number of nights scale according to the investment:

  • 1.5M THB — 4 annual complimentary nights.
  • 3M THB — 10 annual complimentary nights.
  • Higher tiers — 14+ nights.

Jaia is built by people who believe the world needs more places like this.

If you're one of them, let's begin.
