Absolute Group of companies, Asia’s market leader in mixed-use resort development, today announced the appointment of Phil Tufnell, the popular UK celebrity and former England cricket captain, as Absolute brand ambassador.
“We are really pleased to have Phil Tufnell on board as one of our brand ambassadors. He will be promoting Absolute resorts and hotels not only in Phuket but throughout Thailand as a first class holiday destination. He will also be promoting our lifestyle and exciting investment opportunities, plus helping promote Absolute’s fractional ownership programme,” said Bryan Lunt, Chairman of Absolute Group of companies.
Absolute Group is the pioneer of fractional ownership and a leading mixed-used resort developer in Thailand and throughout Asia. The company currently offers fractional ownership schemes on four properties in Thailand and there will be two new major developments this year.
Absolute’s current property investment offerings in Thailand include Absolute Bangla Suites (Phuket), Absolute Nakalay Beach Resort (Phuket), Absolute Signature Villas at Palm Grove (Jomtien - Pattaya) and Absolute Platinum Suites (Jomtien - Pattaya).
“Fractional ownership is such a great concept for investment. It’s not just applicable during an economic downturn like now. It has been implemented at many high-end developments worldwide and allows buyers a simpler way to enjoy a luxurious lifestyle and sound investment” added Lunt.
All Absolute properties offer an optional rental programme with full resort-style five star management services which will ensure maximum returns for the individual property owners. Absolute are currently offering buyers choices in developments completed as well as off-plan developments. The off-plan buyers can expect to see at least a 30 to 40 % gain in the value of their property by the time the development is complete.*

“I have spent time exploring Phuket recently and have been impressed with the island, the Thai culture, and the Thai people are so friendly. I have visited several of Absolute’s projects and am really happy to say they are ‘Absolute-ly brilliant!’ They offer great quality building finishes, in great locations, and at fantastic prices. Ideal places for a holiday and ideal investment opportunities. I’m really looking forward to spending more time on Phuket in the future” added Phil Tufnell.
Absolute Group of companies organised ‘An evening with Phil Tufnell’ to announce the brand ambassador appointment and introduce its new projects among potential investors in Phuket and Hong Kong on June 24 and June 25 accordingly.
