KOTA KINABALU: Over 600 home buyers and guests gathered together this past weekend at the new, resort-inspired Bukit Bantayan condominium here.
Gamuda Land hosted an elaborate reception dinner to celebrate and show appreciation to the buyers of Bukit Bantayan. It was a lively event with live band performances, lucky draws and fireworks to top off the night.
Also present at Bukit Bantayan for the event was The Makeover Guys, an interior design specialist company from Kuala Lumpur who offer solutions to property investors and homeowners.
They also have an office based in Kuching.
Property Hunter was given the chance to sit down with a few Bukit Bantayan buyers to learn about their experience buying with Gamuda Land and what their impressions were of the property.
A young home buyer said he found comfort in the natural, refreshing environment.
“I come from a very traditional family so the first thing that struck me was the area. They say that a home near the mountains is a very good place for ‘Feng Shui’ (a traditional Chinese philosophy that believes energy harmonises individuals with their surrounding environment). ”
“When I first came to take a look at Bukit Bantayan, I fell in love with the view of the property and felt very comfortable in the show unit. Other properties that I had previously viewed did not give me the same ‘at home’ feeling that I did here with the natural and clean surrounding air.”
“Another reason I was attracted to Bukit Bantayan is because of the developer, Gamuda Land whom I had previously heard good reviews about. Buying from a respectable developer is actually the most important factor for me.”
“During the whole buying process, the Gamuda team was very professional and were patient when dealing with my inquiries. When faced with difficulties they took full responsibility and completed their job efficiently.”
“I look forward to moving in and starting my life here and have already even encouraged my friends to purchase.”
Meanwhile, a semi-retired couple saw their purchase as a liveable, weekend getaway.
“At first glance, I felt that the size was well suited for my husband and I as we are a semi-retired couple and we plan to possibly use this as our weekend getaway. Small, liveable and functional. These are the qualities that I was looking for in
a property because I am not going to be able to manage a large space.”
“What I like most about Bukit Bantayan is that there are plenty of trees surrounding us and also the concept of having shop lots and facilities within the development itself. I look forward to the convenience of living here so that I don’t even have to cook if I don’t feel like it. I feel very comfortable here.”
“When buying with Gamuda Land, I feel that the staff know their product very well and are all friendly and professional. During this whole process they were prompt when answering all my queries.”
“I would definitely recommend Bukit Bantayan to friends and family, provided they are not worried about the distance from town.”
“However I do believe that in time, this area will develop and it already has everything you may need. I will be making the most of my time here, for sure.”
Another buyer who is an active community member said it was unlike any other place in Kota Kinabalu.
“My first impression of Bukit Bantayan was that it is unique and different to any other property I have seen in Kota Kinabalu. It not just about the place.”
Bukit Bantayan is a development that brings ‘the best of both worlds’ combining natural Bornean landscapes and easy access to Kota Kinabalu city.
The high-rise residential and shop lots development features an abundant list of amenities such as a reflexology path, pools, a floating lounger, yoga deck, gymnasium and green canopy.
Gamuda Land is the first in Sabah to introduce a resident management app called GL Mobile. It is a comprehensive application designed for residents to book in-house services and facilities, register guests for security purposes or pay their monthly maintenance fee and more.
