A panoramic ocean view from Park Island at night across the ocean to Hong Kong Island.

Ocean view from Park Island
Here is a quite impressive Park Island photo (I took from another website) of a night view from Park Island across the ocean. Really quite stunning on a clear night.

If you are after an apartment in Hong Kong with ocean views, consider Park Island as a very  affordable option.

    The panaromic view captures the two formidable bridges which are slightly contrasting in terms of structure and lighting. A wonderful sight indeed - splendid! With a glass of wine at hand and enjoying such views one would be forgiven to mistaken this as near paradise.

    Bloomberg news reported today that HK is the dirtiest global financial centre. Perhaps they ought to sample the near fumeless air of Park Island to feel the difference! Stepping off the ferry at Central and venturing into Central and Wanchai districts, the difference in air and noise pollution compared with Park Island is startling. The near non-exsistent exhaust fumes and zero traffic/construction site pounding noise makes Park Island an idyllic place to live and relax.

      I agree with you 100%. What amazes me is how many people in HK are prepared to put up with the noise, dirt, and grim, and indeed pay extra for the privilege, living in the city. If you have to work in Hong Kong, its a no brainer to live somewhere cleaner, cheaper, nicer. Do your hours in the office, make your money, and then relax and live as though you are on holiday outside of that time, swimming, gym, relaxing on the beach etc.

      Can't agree more. For those people who do not appreciate quality, I say let them live amongst dirt, noise and grime.

    Do you have a photo with panaromic view taken during the day? Night view is impressive but wonder whether day time view is equally good.

      Thanks Blogger, What a majestic view and a commanding vista of the bridge with sandy beach at the side. Will look into buying a place in Park Island.

    What a view at such an "affordable" price. Best kept secret in town.

    View of the two formidable bridges is quite fantastic. You cannot have such view in the grossly overpriced apartments at mid-levels.

Pool facilities on Park Island

Image
My favorite pool on Park Island is the outdoor pool at the Blue Blue Club. Blue Blue Club Outdoor Pool Right now, as things warm up, one thing I enjoy is eating a meal overlooking the pool, and then having a relaxing swim, followed by relaxation the jacuzzie. I usually swim 2 to 3 times a week, and I find it a great form of exercise. One thing I really like about Park Island is that apart being surrounded by ocean (where you can swim if you wish) there are a large number of resort-style pools to chose from on the island. The Blue Blue club has the outdoor pool (pictured above) and an excellent Olympic style indoor pool (pictured below), also with 3 jacuzzie (one large mixed-sex one, and then one each in the mens and ladies rooms, along with steam saunas, dry saunas, etc). Blue Blue Club Indoor Pool The other pools are located at the Green Green Club house, in the middle of the Park Island (again with communal jacizzie), and also a huge outdoor pool near the Phase 5 apartments...

When will private cars be allowed on Park Island?

Image
As promised, here is an update on the discussions I have had with the Hong Kong Planning Department and the Hong Kong Transport Department. First, below is the actual response I received in relation to submissions and inquiries related to allowing access and car parking for private cars for Park Island residents.  This office has consulted Transport Department on your proposal. T his email serves as a coordinated reply by Planning Department and Transport Department. The construction of the Airport Core Projects had impacts on the planning for Ma Wan. The Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok is about 12km to the west. The Lantau Link, which is the major transport link between Lantau and the urban area, passes over Ma Wan. Ma Wan is located at a prominent location along the Tsing Ma and Lantau transport corridor and subject to traffic capacity and infrastructure constraints. Comprehensive planning and control on development on the island with due regard to ...

Green Green Club on Park Island

Image
Park Island has a number of club houses across the Estate. All residents can use any of the club facilities. Normally I hang out at the Blue Blue club, as I like the outdoor pool with the infinity effect overlooking the ocean, but I recently went to the Green Green club for a change, and took a look around. Here are my pics, in no particular order: -The club house has lots of activities for kids (and adults posted). Here is a snapshot of one of several pages of current activities. Park Island Activities for Residents Childrens' activities on Park Island -The Green Green club has a number of insulated music rooms, some with pianos and others empty. This is a GREAT idea for people (and children) who wish to practice music without disturbing neighbours. Its also a good idea for anyone who likes to play the piano, but does not want one taking up space in their apartment! Park Island Music Room -At the center of the club house there is a nice open roof "zoo". See...
