Interiors feature natural stone flooring, bespoke cabinetry, and state-of-the-art appliances from Wolf and Sub-Zero. Primary suites include midnight bars and en-suite bathrooms with soaking tubs and smart toilets. Select homes offer staff quarters and flexible layouts.
Residents will have access to a curated suite of amenities, including a water’s-edge pool with cabanas, a rooftop pool, a private dock with boat slips, guest suites, and 24-hour security. Additional amenities include a private screening room, an indoor golf simulator, a social lounge with a chef’s kitchen, a kids’ club, and a pet spa, all managed with Mandarin Oriental’s renowned service standards.
