Eastern & Oriental Berhad (E&O), Malaysia’s premier lifestyle developer, revealed its latest waterfront residence, Maris. Located within the vibrant Gurney Green district on Andaman Island, Maris epitomises marina-inspired living and will offer residents a unique blend of urban convenience and tranquil seafront elegance.

With a Gross Development Value (GDV) close to RM 700 million, Maris is freehold and offers 516 furnished serviced residences within a 49-storey tower.

Homes are designed to cater to diverse lifestyles, featuring sizes ranging from 979 square feet for the two-bedroom units while three-bedroom units range from 1,177 square feet to 1,356
square feet.

The furnished nature of the units ensures a hassle-free living experience, making them perfect for young families, retirees, downsizers, and those seeking both a comfortable home and
investment opportunity.

Each unit boasts practical layouts, generous natural lighting, and premium finishes, catering to discerning homeowners seeking a dynamic and distinguished lifestyle. Prices are expected to start from RM 950,000, ensuring a myriad of options.

The development also features eight waterfront shophouses, seamlessly integrating retail and residential components, allowing residents to enjoy a host of conveniences and social gatherings.

Kok Tuck Cheong, Managing Director at E&O Berhad, said, "Maris celebrates modern waterfront living, blending luxury, functionality, and sustainability. Its marina-edge concept offers a vibrant yet serene environment, where everyday essentials are just steps away. It’s more than just a home, Maris is an experience, crafted with meticulous attention to detail to enhance the quality of life for our residents."

Among the standout features of The Maris are its curated facilities and amenities which include an infinity pool, forest park, pet park, gymnasium, and social spaces to foster community interaction.

Residents will also be able to enjoy picturesque and relaxing sea views from the sky terrace, which offers swinging daybeds and outdoor dining spaces, set against the iconic Gurney Drive and Georgetown skyline.

The launch of Maris also introduces a vibrant waterfront promenade. Lined with cafes, restaurants, and boutique retail outlets, it offers both residents and visitors a variety of lifestyle and
leisure experiences. 

Kok said, “As the first project to activate this promenade, Maris transforms the area into an open, welcoming space that fosters social interaction and communal living. Designed with walkability in mind, the promenade ensures easy access to amenities while encouraging an active, outdoor lifestyle. It creates an inviting environment for people to gather, connect, and enjoy shared experiences.”

Continuing E&O Berhad’s commitment to sustainability, Maris also meets Platinum GreenRE standards, which incorporates environmentally conscious and quality materials alongside best practices to ensure energy efficiency and minimal impact on the surrounding ecosystem. This will enhance both the living experience and the sustainability of the development.

Located on Andaman Island, a meticulously planned 760-acre township, The Maris benefits from the '15-minute city' urbanism concept, which ensures residents have convenient access to shopping, dining, wellness, and recreational spaces within a short walk or bike ride.

The development’s strategic location is further enhanced by its connectivity to Gurney Drive via a dedicated 8-lane bridge. This bridge, set to open later this year, will significantly improve access to Gurney Drive, offering residents seamless travel between the two locations and enhancing the overall connectivity to the city's core.

Kok added that Maris builds on the momentum of E&O’s highly successful launches on Andaman Island, including The Meg, Arica, and initial phases of landed homes Fera and Senna, all of which are fully sold out. The Lume, launched last year, also saw encouraging market responses, reflecting strong confidence in E&O’s developments.

Kok said, “Maris, alongside our current and future developments, embodies E&O’s enduring commitment to craft developments that blend elegance, functionality, and sustainability.”

Show units for Maris are now open for viewing on Andaman and in conjunction with the coming Chinese New Year celebrations, E&O will be hosting exciting activities on February 1 between 11am to 6pm. Visitors will be able to look forward to Lion Dances, workshops, a Chinese Orchestra performance and a wide selection of food and beverages.
