The Sky Infinity Pool offers panoramic views of the city, including the iconic Komtar (background). 'It is uniquely merged with a heritage landmark and features many thoughtful touches that pay tribute to the city's timeless character as a Unesco World Heritage Site. 'I'm also proud to announce that it has been accorded silver certification by GreenRE for sustainability features and achieved a Qlassic score of 83%, a testament to quality workmanship.'

Just like at its other properties in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Ipoh in Perak, Mana Mana Hospitality will furnish end-to-end management services. This hands-off investment model allows owners to generate passive income while ensuring the property is well-maintained. 'It ensures that purchasers' assets are protected. 'We expect to welcome our first guests next month,' said Siew.

'We will expand this specific segment with new project launches in prime locations, aimed at investors seeking short-term rental income opportunities,' Siew said. 'By offering affordable entry points, we aim to make hospitality investment more accessible to a broader audience,' she added. Looking ahead, the group will further strengthen its presence in Penang with Noordinz Suites @ George Town which similarly blends historical charm with modern design. There is also The Lighthauz, a waterfront-inspired architectural landmark near Penang Bridge.
