Bin Faqeeh Group, a leading real estate investment firm, is set to break ground on Layan, a luxury residential property with a private water park coming up at Durrat Marina.
Also known as the Jewel of Bahrain, the Durrat Marina is already one of the most distinguished projects in the Gulf and is currently valued at $1.3 billion.
An ideal family retreat and the perfect weekend escape, Layan offers a variety of residential options including studios, one-bedroom apartments and duplexes, two-bedroom apartments as well as penthouses and villas.
The property prices at the Layan begin at BD55,000 ($144,928) onwards, said a statement from Bin Faqeeh.
A star attraction for the investors is that each villa in Layan comes with a combination of a luxury yacht and a car, it stated.
Work on the project will start by month end with completion expected approximately 24 months from now, said a company official.
“We take immense pride in our efforts to be the first in Bahrain in each and every one of our projects,” remarked Nadia Bouslama, the head of marketing for Bin Faqeeh.
To celebrate the launch of The Layan project, Bin Faqeeh had organised the kingdom’s first “Dining in the Sky” event on Wednesday which will be followed by a two-day carnival packed with activities and entertainment.
The “Dining in the Sky” event began with a grand reception in the garden. Guests were ushered into the garden area or relaxed in the shade of the tents as they listened to soft music and enjoyed light refreshments.
The diners were then comfortably strapped in seats secured to a dining table and lifted about 50 m into the air by a crane. Once at the top, caterers served food and refreshments while diners got to enjoy the breath taking views of Layan-in-the-making.
Its unique features include picturesque landscaping, in-water movie theatres, in-water restaurants and a wave pools with a surf area.
On the Dining in the Sky event, Bouslama.”We took this style to the next level by being the first in terms of events as well as project concepts. We are constantly working on new and exciting projects and cannot wait to continue unveiling new projects for the Limited 5.”
A table holding 32 guests at a time was carried high into the sky at four different times per day to allow guests to enjoy a dining experience like never before, explained Bouslama.
Different guests enjoyed different meals at varied times of day as breakfast, lunch, high tea and dinner were served at some point, she added.
In keeping with their theme of “first in everything,” Bin Faqeeh is combining a myriad of different activities in one place.
The carnival on March 25 and 26 will offer a wide selection of different shows including fire shows, music shows and water shows. Families with young children will have the chance to leave their children with trusted nannies in “toddler tents” in order for them to enjoy other activities, said the official.
The two family days will take place in a peaceful and secluded area in Durrat Marina, she stated.
“Other activities include a petting zoo, rubber duck fishing and horseback riding. In an effort to stay current in electronics, the carnival will also host virtual reality experiences, Wii games and PS4 games. Finally, adults can sit back and enjoy the selection of dining options in relaxing atmospheres,” said Bouslama.
The carnival keeps in tune with the brand’s luxury standard in its offering of a getaway within Bahrain, she added.
