Polina Marchenko, known under the pseudonym Luxury Girl, continues to surprise her subscribers not only with her colorful lifestyle, but also with new turns in her personal geography. Recently it became known that she bought a villa on the island of Phuket, Thailand. This event caused a great resonance among her audience, because now Polina is now even more immersed in the world of tropical resorts and exotics.

 Why Phuket?

Thailand has long been a popular place to live, especially after the country opened its borders to foreigners during the pandemic. Phuket is the country’s largest island, known for its white-sand beaches, crystal clear water and developed infrastructure. Here you can find everything from ultra-modern shopping centers to traditional Thai markets.

For Pauline, choosing Phuket was a logical step. Firstly, the island offers ideal conditions for those who appreciate comfort, luxury and the opportunity to live surrounded by nature. Secondly, Thailand offers quite attractive conditions for digital nomads – people who work remotely. Thanks to stable internet, affordable medicine and relatively low cost of living, many Influencers and entrepreneurs choose this country for long-term residence.

 About the villa: How did you choose your ideal home?

The villa that Polina Marchenko purchased is located in one of the most prestigious areas of Phuket. Although the exact details of the property are not yet fully disclosed, Polina recorded several videos for her subscribers to show the selection process and tell what criteria she took into account.

 First villa: “Botanica”

The first option was from the Botanika complex, which is famous for its eco-friendly approach and unique landscape solutions. However, despite the beautiful appearance, Polina was not satisfied:

Price: $663,000.

Benefits:

  – Living room with access to the pool.

  – Bright interior.

  – Spacious summer area with sofas.

Disadvantages:

  – Small bedrooms (one couldn’t even open the closet).

  – Narrow space between the bed and the sofa.

  – Unpleasant odors in some restrooms.

  – Compact kitchen with only three burners on the stove.

“This villa looks beautiful, but it is not functional at all. I was especially disappointed with the quality of finishing and the size of the rooms,” Polina said.

 Second villa: Botanica Forest.

The next option was from the Botanica Forest complex, a more prestigious project by the same developer. This villa made a much bigger impression:

Price: $1.6 million (unfurnished).

Features:

  – Four spacious bedrooms.

  – Large swimming pool with canopy.

  – Combined outdoor shower room.

  – Outdoor summer kitchen with grill.

  – The wine closet is outside.

  – Work area in each bedroom.

Benefits:

  – Spacious facilities.

  – Large closets to store your belongings.

  – Stylish modern design.

Disadvantages:

  – High price.

  – Need to purchase additional furniture (about 4 million baht or 120 thousand dollars).

“I was thrilled! It is exactly what I envisioned. Luxurious, spacious, tasteful. But the price… Maybe a little overpriced,” admitted Polina.

 Third villa: Developer Anchan

The third option was offered by the developer Anchan. This project pleased Polina with its affordability while maintaining a high level of quality:

Price: 26 million baht (about 780 thousand dollars without furniture).

Features:

  – Three bedrooms.

  – Parking for two cars.

  – A well-kept garden.

  – A darkish but cozy interior.

  – Two large master bedrooms with private baths.

  – Possibility of access from the bedroom directly to the garden.

Benefits:

  – Good value for money.

  – More space to store things.

  – Natural atmosphere thanks to the garden.

Disadvantages:

  – Less space than the second villa.

  – The absence of some elements of luxury.

“I liked this villa more than the others. It offers everything you need for a comfortable life, but at the same time costs much less,” Polina emphasized.

Final selection

Although Polina considered three villa options in detail, in the end she made a choice in favor of a completely different object, which was not presented in the review. This option, according to her, perfectly meets her requirements and preferences. 

Pauline noted that the new villa combines the following factors that are important to her:

– Reasonable price: Despite the high level of luxury, the cost of the property was more reasonable than some of the previously reviewed options.

– Spacious rooms: It was important for her to have enough space to work, relax and receive guests. The new villa provides spacious rooms, large closets and comfortable living areas.

– Convenient location: The villa is located in one of the most prestigious areas of Phuket, where the infrastructure is developed and there is everything you need for a comfortable life.

– Possibility of personalization: Pauline emphasized that the new house allows her to implement her ideas in the design, adding elements of luxury and creating a unique space.

The audience of Luxury Girl is waiting with great interest for the promised review of the new villa. Many subscribers hope that Polina will show all the details of her new home, because each of her posts or videos becomes a source of inspiration for those who dream of a luxurious life in the tropics.

 How does this affect her career?

Moving to Phuket could be an important milestone in Polina Marchenko’s career. Now she will be able to create content based on new experiences and lifestyle. Life on the island provides plenty of opportunities to create beautiful and memorable videos and photos, which is especially important for an Influencer.

In addition, Thailand is a great place for business development. Polina can use her presence on the island to make new connections, collaborate with local brands or even launch new projects related to tourism, fashion or real estate.

 Personal life in Phuket

Although Polina remains quite private about her personal life, her move to Phuket may indicate that she is looking for a new stage in her life. Perhaps the island will become a place where she can combine work with vacation, as well as spend more time with loved ones.

She often mentions on her pages that she appreciates the peace and harmony that living on an island gives her. This can be an important factor for someone who is constantly in the spotlight and keeps a busy schedule.
