Hong Kong Resort Company Limited (HKR) proudly presents Poggibonsi, its latest sea view¹ luxury residential project in Discovery Bay.

“Poggibonsi sits in a prime location in Discovery Bay. Its proximity to the incline lift² allows easy access to the nearby taxi station², DB North Plaza², The Pavilion², etc. The name ‘Poggibonsi’ is originated from a small town in Tuscany, central Italy, where it is surrounded by mountains, vineyards and wineries. True to its name, our project ‘Poggibonsi’ enjoys hilly landscape¹, adding on top is the magnificent seascapes¹, vistas of Hong Kong’s iconic cityscape¹ or panoramic scenery¹. The idyllic greenery, clear water¹ and blue sky allow residents to soak up the relaxing atmosphere and experience an understated luxurious lifestyle. Discovery Bay has long been an international community with residents from different parts of the world³ and is a unique place in Hong Kong. Being the latest development in Discovery Bay, Poggibonsi offers home buyers an unparalleled lifestyle,” said Ms. Pandora Chan, Assistant General Manager of Sales and Marketing of HKR International Limited.

Poggibonsi comprises three 16-storey buildings, providing 196 units of various designs. From studio flats to 4-bedroom units with saleable area ranging from 344 to 1,844 sq. ft.⁴, Poggibonsi is suitable for different market segments. The project is designed with a sleek glass curtain wall to bring in the view¹. Located near the incline lift², Poggibonsi is easily accessible to urban taxi station², Auberge Discovery Bay Hong Kong², DB North Plaza² and resident clubhouse², delighting its residents with relaxing lifestyle.

Discovery Bay benefits from the role of Lantau as the “Double Gateway”⁶.  It is only 15 minutes to the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA)⁷, and with the opening of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, residents can conveniently travel across Zhuhai and Macao. The urban taxi station also ensures a direct access to the North Lantau road network and the MTR network, connecting to different parts of the city. The infrastructure and planning of Lantau Island will be further enhanced with HKIA’s Third Runway Project⁸ and the Tomorrow Lantau Vision⁹ in the pipeline. Lantau Island will probably benefit from the bridgehead economy effects which are expected to be extended to Discovery Bay thanks to its strategic location⁹. Poggibonsi enjoys comprehensive transport network and excellent community facilities. HKR is now applying for the pre-sale consent and the project is expected to launch in early next year.
