1/5 The Kardashian Family
In 2014, the Kardashian family resided at the Iniala Beach House on Phuket’s Natai Beach. Reports indicated that a one-week stay could have cost the family up to approximately 5.5 million baht, however, E! and Ryan Secrest Productions financed the trip. Iniala comprises three beachfront villas with pools and a penthouse. The penthouse is designed to evoke an eclectic and futuristic ambiance, featuring carpeting that simulates walking on sand.
