GFH, a regional financial group with key interests in asset management and real estate, and Infracorp have signed an agreement with global hospitality group Kempinski to launch Harbour Heights Kempinski Hotel and exclusive branded residences.
Announcing this on sidelines of Gateway Gulf Forum 2024, GFH said with this project, it aims to deliver the next level of luxury, waterfront living in the heart of Mamana’s exclusive Bahrain Harbour, which is strategically positioned in downtown Bahrain within a key financial and lifestyle hub as well as in close proximity to other prominent leisure, business, and transportation centers in the Kingdom.
Kempinski Harbour Heights will offer unmatched panoramic views of the Bahrain Harbour and Marina and the adjacent Bahrain Bay.
The project will boast Sky Villas, marking the first Kempinski branded villas with direct sea views, and 260 luxury apartments and hotel rooms, stated the developer.
The villas and residences will be developed to the highest and most exacting design specifications and will benefit from premium lifestyle offerings including the highest swimming pool in Bahrain with 360 views, a sprawling roof top garden with kids play areas, indoor sports facilities, as well as an outdoor gym, tennis courts, and basketball court. Residences also benefit from an international fine dining offering, cigar lounge and meeting facilities, as well as exclusive access to the Kempinski hotel’s broad range of world-class services and amenities.
On the new venture, Barbara Muckermann, the CEO of Kempinski, said: “We are excited to develop Kempinski Harbour Heights as a landmark that epitomizes luxury and sophistication in Bahrain. This project reflects our commitment to delivering outstanding quality and a world-class lifestyle for owners and investors, setting a new benchmark in upscale, waterfront living in Bahrain.”
“Each residence will be crafted with the utmost attention to detail, ensuring an environment that combines elegance with modern amenities for a truly elevated experience,” stated Muckermann.
Harbour Heights is a groundbreaking development in Bahrain, encompassing residential, medical, retail, hospitality, and leisure facilities across 35,900 sqm at the core of Bahrain Harbour.
With a total GFA surpassing 137,000 sqm, this avant-garde complex epitomizes luxury, uniqueness, and distinction, promising to introduce a new waterfront lifestyle experience to the Kingdom’s future vision.
