Whale Marina Update
Whale Marina Update
There has been a great deal of progress on the Whale Marina condo project in Na Jomtien.
The piling for building A was finished on April 11th. Just in time to give everyone a break for Songkran.
The progress on Whale Marina will be even faster as the developer has finished construction on Natureza Art and Private Paradise. A workers village is being constructed at the site and things should be moving along quite quickly.
A powerful, new generator was installed at the site to supply electricity to the worker's village and to the construction site for power tools and the electric crane. The foundation piles for the crane are in the ground at this time.
The sea wall construction around the perimeter of the site continues and is now 90% completed.
The foundation part of construction usually is the slowest and most time consuming part of the project.
Overall, the construction progress is going as planned and now that the electricity is connected to the site, work is going to pick up speed.
Whale Marina sales have been brisk and here is a breakdown of the percentage sold in each building.
Building A - 103 out of 147 units sold - 70%
Building B - 52 out of 126 units sold - 41%
Building C - 0 out of 92 units sold - NOT OPEN FOR SALE YET
There are still plenty of great units available and many have sea and pool views.
In case you are not familiar with the project Whale Marina is a new condo project in Na Jomtien. The project was launched in 2015 amid much fanfare and progress has continued at a steady pace. Whale Marina has already garnered EIA approval and the project has been authorised by the Thai Marina Department.
Whale Marina will be a resort style condo development consisting of 3, 8-storey buildings with a total of 364 units. There are 27 unit styles to choose from. The vast majority of the units will have sea views.
The first floor of the buildings will offer parking and the Whale Marina facilities including the private boat marina. Other facilities at Whale Marina will include a water sport club, fitness center, 3 communal pools, a restaurant and coffee shop, security a rooftop garden and more.
The Water Sports Club at Whale Marina is designed to offer a choice of water sport activities to its residents by trained and certified professionals. Residents who enjoy water sports, will be able to go deep-sea fishing, diving, jet skiing, water skiing and a myriad of other activities. Trips to nearby islands will also be offered from the private marina.
Whale Marina will share the canal in the Tonhaad Lagoon with other marine themed residences such as View Talay Marina and the Jomtien Yacht Club.
To accommodate the larger boats expected at the Whale Marina the Pattaya City Municipality and the Thai Marine Department have been dredging in the lagoon.
The developers of Whale Marina chose its location based on several factors including the position it will command on the canal, the project’s proximity to the beach, accessibility of Sukhumvit and other main traffic arteries, restaurants, shopping and entertainment were all very important considerations.
The project is also close to many of the tourist attractions in the Pattaya and Jomtien area such as Nong Nooch Gardens, Cartoon Network Water Park, the Pattaya Floating Market, Underwater World Pattaya and the Phoenix Gold Golf Club.
Whale Marina is in close proximity to many fine restaurants such as The Glass House and the Bacco Beach Italian Restaurant, which are only a few hundred meters from the development, in addition to many other smaller, casual restaurants in the area.
There are a total of 27 different floor plans available in Whale Marina. The developer is confident that offering many different plans will help the units retain their value and will not compete with a large number of same type units in the same building. This is an exciting change from the usual three floor plans for 800 units in some of the more recent projects in the area.
The developer also prides itself on the quality of construction and interior finish of their previous projects and the Whale Marina will be no exception. Each unit will be beautifully crafted with high quality materials and finish.
Unit sizes will start at 29.13 square meters (Building B) and continue up with the largest units being offered in Building A. For a complete list of the available units, pricing and floor plans please contact one of the Coastal Real Estate sales staff.
All of the units in Whale Marina come fully furnished including electronics, wallpaper & curtains.
There is also an excellent payment plan available with the final payment on receipt of the Chanote, which is expected, in the second quarter of 2018. The time to act is now however as a lot of units have been sold already.
