Durrat Al Bahrain is jointly owned by the Kingdom of Bahrain's Government and Kuwait Finance House (Bahrain). It is named after the most perfect pearl and sets out to be a model city resort of life as it should be in the 21st century. The character and design of Durrat Al Bahrain will reflect the highest quality of design principles and will set a new standard for urban development in the Kingdom.
This 20sq.km. seaside city resort, located on the south coast of Bahrain, will include 13 different islands with over 2,000 villas, more than 3,000 apartments, luxury hotels, restaurants, promenades, shopping centres, spas, a planned marina, and a proposed golf course among its many sports facilities. Plans for ongoing development will evolve according to the city's needs and wants.
Atoll Islands
The outermost edge of the resort city of Durrat Al Bahrain consists of an arc of six Island Atolls with open sea views. Residents can expect a fabulous lifestyle in state-of-the-art homes offering uninterrupted views of the sea. Communities of private villas will have either open sea frontage, some with moorings or golden beaches which slope down to the sea. The Atolls are connected to the mainland via stunning bridges which pass through the Petal Islands and then the Crescent Island. PetalIslands
Five Petal Islands are set as the inner ring of islands, closer to the mainland shore than the Atolls. They are joined by a continuous circular bridge which leads to the Crescent Island. The design of the Petal Islands ensures privacy from one sophisticated villa to the next. Most villas boast long water frontages and many have their own mooring facilities. Later phases will include parkland style villas set back slightly from the sea. CrescentIsland
The Crescent will be the heart of Durrat Al Bahrain. There will be approximately 3,600 luxurious Crescent Island and Grand Canal Apartments built in a series of stunning, stat of the art apartment buildings. The Crescent Island will contain the community essentials including educational facilities, a mosque, civic services and shopping facilities. A series of restaurants and cafes is also envisaged with all the support facilities needed in a development of this scale. It will also have a series of beaches facing the central lagoon enabling a mix of residential, commercial and leisure based lifestyle. Location.
Durrat Al Bahrain, the Kingdom's 21st Century ground-breaking project, spreads across a stretch of reclaimed desert and sea near the southern tip of the island just 35 minutes from Manama on the proposed new dual carriage highway.
