Tropicana Cenang marks 100 per cent take-up for final phase
LANGKAWI: Tropicana Corporation Bhd celebrated a significant milestone for its Langkawi-based Tropicana Cenang development with the topping off of Assana and Merissa Serviced Suites, which have both achieved 100 per cent take-up. The ceremony also marked the official launch of the final phase, Clarissa Serviced Suites, alongside the unveiling of its show unit. Located on 2.13 hectares of freehold land at Pantai Cenang, the integrated, green-certified project is set for completion next year. The first two phases, Assana and Merissa, offer 831 and 60 fully furnished serviced suites, respectively, designed for resort-style living. Assana units range from 380 to 1,310 sq ft, while Merissa features duplex layouts between 1,066 and 1,303 sq ft. Each phase is positioned for premium beachfront access and comes with concierge services. "With such strong demand, we are rolling out our phase three, Clarissa Serviced Suites, together with a brand-new show unit. Our audience is largely savvy homebuyers, business owners, and families looking for holiday homes," said project managing director Allan Wong and managing director for marketing, sales and business development, Ixora Ang. "Tropicana has expanded its foothold to Langkawi for more than a decade now. Langkawi is known for its duty-free status, cultural heritage, and its rich geological history dating back half a billion years, including mountains, islands, and beaches. "We see the huge growth potential and over the years, we have engaged with various stakeholders, showing our support to the community and authority with R&R upgrade, infrastructure enhancement and charity initiatives," they added. FEATURES AND FUTURE PLANS At 40 storeys, Clarissa Serviced Suites comprises 806 fully furnished units and seven Beachwalk Shoppes. Units range from 536 to 1,356 sq ft, including studio to four-bedroom configurations. Designed with a 'tropical elegance' concept, each unit features integrated kitchen and sanitary fittings, smart storage and minimalist resort-style interiors inspired by Langkawi's coastal setting. Key amenities include a seafront infinity pool, rooftop viewing deck, concierge services and direct access to the beach. The development will be managed by T-Journey and aims for GreenRE certification and QLASSIC workmanship assessment. Tropicana Cenang offers a number of key selling points across all three phases: a freehold title, strategic location just nine kilometres from Langkawi International Airport, premium seafront living and proximity to retail, food and leisure offerings. It is set to be the tallest building in Langkawi and aims to serve a growing market of holidaymakers, retirees and investment buyers. As part of its CSR programme, Tropicana has pledged RM200 for every Clarissa unit sold, targeting RM160,000 in donations over three years. Funds will support local schools, families, elderly care and medical initiatives through its Cenang CSR programme. Tropicana also plans to continue its expansion in Langkawi with future developments including Tropicana Lagoon and Tropicana Shores, in line with its mission of building community-focused, sustainable developments.
