Jumeirah Private Island Phuket, one of
Asia Pacific’s most exclusive developments, is scheduled for
completion in 2009. The luxury project 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 top-notch facilities including 101 larger than standard
berths (from 10-70 metres) capable of accommodating super yachts of
up to 70m with 24-hour security, electronic surveillance and fully
lit walkways.
Other features include a fuel dock with
pump out facility, a 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 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% lower than those in
Europe. All property owners on Jumeirah Private Island Resort will
enjoy full access to both the marina and yacht club.
