Ascott secures latest signup in Kota Kinabalu
KOTA KINABALU: The Ascott Limited (Ascott), a lodging business unit wholly owned by CapitaLand Investment, introduces the Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu, a new pinnacle of luxury living in Sabah, Malaysia.
Nestled within the prestigious premium integrated development, The Shore, Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu offers an unparalleled experience in the heart of Kota Kinabalu, making it an ideal gateway to the captivating beauty of Sabah.
“Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu is not just a luxurious residence; it’s a lifestyle statement. Contrary to online information, it is not the highest residential building in KK City Centre, nor is it marketed as having resort suites. Instead, it promises something even more exceptional” said The Shore Managing Director Datuk Poh Yit.
ASCOTT Malaysia Country General Manager Mondi Mecja said with the soft opening of its doors on February 8, 2024, Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu boasts 396 units, including 264 studios and 162 1-bedroom units.
“What sets this property apart is its unique dual-key capabilities, allowing room types to seamlessly transform into 2-bedroom units when demand arises,” said Mecja.
Guests and residents will enjoy a plethora of amenities and facilities, including a Swimming Pool, Children’s Play Pool, Gymnasium, Roof Garden, Resident’s Lounge with a breathtaking sea view, function room and an all-day dining experience.
Situated in a prime waterfront area within the Kota Kinabalu Central Business District, Citadines Waterfront offers unobstructed sea view rooms overlooking the South China Sea, making it the perfect starting point for exploring the wonders of Sabah, Malaysia.
Sabah is celebrated for its natural beauty, diverse cultures, and a growing medical tourism industry. It boasts an affordable standard of living, making it a hotspot for leisure travellers and retirees, particularly from Korea, Japan, and China.
“For those jetting in or out of Sabah, Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu is a mere 15-minute drive (7.8km) from the KK International Airport, ensuring a seamless journey to and from the property,” said Mecja.
Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu is poised to become the epitome of luxury living in Sabah, offering a blend of comfort, convenience, and breathtaking views. It signifies The Ascott Limited’s commitment to providing world-class accommodation options in strategic destinations.
