Jumeirah Private Island Phuket, one of Asia Pacific’s most exclusive developments is scheduled for completion in Q4 2010 and set to offer levels of luxury, privacy and security as yet unseen in Asia Pacific. It will also be home to an elite mega yacht Marina and the invitation-only Jumeirah Private Island Yacht Club.
Designed to top international specifications, the fully-inclusive Marina is being built in a protected lagoon on the East coast of the island and will offer a range of facilities including 104 larger than standard berths (from 10-100 metres) capable of accommodating super yachts of up to 100m with 24-hour security, electronic surveillance and fully lit walkways.
24 hour deep water access is available with a 5.5-metre depth at the Marina entrance to accommodate larger berths (3.5 metre depth for rest of basin), power pedestals, wireless internet, electric vehicle pick up and complete yacht maintenance and repair services.
The phase I of the Marina program is now completed, with the basin preparation and the rock revetment in place. Phase II is now under way which will see the installation of pilings and pontoons in the North area of the bay, phase II will be completed by November 2008. Phase III which is the South side of the natural bay will be completed late in 2009.
The invitation-only Jumeirah Private Island Phuket Yacht Club will feature a state-of the-art clubhouse with luxury accommodation, spa, gym and restaurants and will be host to regular regattas and exclusive Black Tie functions. There is no tax on luxury yachts in Phuket and fuel, crew and dockage costs are up to 80 percent lower than those in Europe.
