We have snakes on our island (and I'm referring not to the real-state agents, but rather REAL snakes). I took photos of this snake on Ma Wan beach on Saturday. OK, well its actually just the skin of a snake, but if that's the skin, I would hate to imagine the size of the owner of the skin! If anyone sees the actual snake, please send me a photo. I am not sure how big snakes in Hong Kong can get, but this was a big one. A Hong Kong snake skin A snake on Ma Wan beach A snake on Park Island beach Close up of the snake's head

Below is the price list for Anacapri on Park Island released today by Sun Hung Kai. The list is for the "middle apartments", which means those which are not ground floor with garden units, or top floor with roof units. Prices seem reasonable, and are priced at between 7000 to 8000 per square foot. So for a 1000 square foot apartment in Anacapri, you are looking at around HKD $7-8 million. Really pretty good value in my opinion, and lower that what I had thought they would be given the high quality of the development. Based on feedback from agents, it seems he top floor and ground floor prices are expected to be around 14,000 to 19,000 per square foot.

I was sent this video of Anacapri on Park Island from a Ma Wan resident. It seems to have been put together by a Park Island estate agent.

It looks like the Phase 6 development will be called AnaCapri. Here is the link of the Anacapri website: Anacapri Park Island . The villas have been named Block 32 Park Island (Sun Ocean), Block 33 Park Island (Luna Ocean), and Block 35 Park Island (Aqua Ocean). They missed out Block 34, due to Chinese superstitions about the number which is considered unlucky. It seems that prices for the Phase 6 Park Island villas will be put here: Park Island Phase 6 Prices . Transaction records from Sun Hun Kai for Anacapri: Anacapri transaction records . Centadata is also keeping Anacapri transaction data: AnaCapri Price Graph .
