THE SOUTHERN part of Jakarta has always been known as the main cosmopolitan pulse of the capital of Indonesia. South Jakarta houses both the fun facets of the capital – hip, world-class restaurants, bars and shopping centres and its serious parts (embassies, multinational offices, main health centres).
According to Rowena Gunawan, Director of Sales said in recent years, Pondok Indah, a silky neighbourhood in South Jakarta known for its upmarket residential areas, is morphing into one of the most exciting parts of town. One of the most latest additions to this sophisticated neighbourhood’s increasing wealth of world-class urban developments is the iconic InterContinental Residences Jakarta Pondok Indah which was officially opened in September last year.
“Designed by the award-winning Hirsch Bedner Associates Singapore, the residences’ 193 superbly designed apartments are not only affluently vibrant, but they also come with unrivalled, InterContinental signature facilities – including a 24-hour fitness centre, steam room, sauna and a 25-metre outdoor swimming pool – which are perfect for both discerning residents of Jakarta and distinguished expatriate business executives relocating to the capital,” she said.
Rowena Gunawan explained that the well-appointed one-bedroom residences, for example, offer a comfortable living space that ranges from 60 to 88 square metres. It also comes fully furnished with state-of-the-art facilities including high-speed internet access and a stylish work desk.
“The two-bedroom apartments are even larger, ranging from 101 to 111 superbly designed square metres. Each unit boasts a balcony that overlooks the lush greenery of the famous Pondok Indah golf course and is luxuriously furnished with a fully equipped sleek kitchen and a large living area designed to provide a comfortable and cosy atmosphere perfect for family gatherings,” Rowena noted.
She also added, to facilitate safe, remote viewing, the residences recently debuted a virtual reality tour around the property to members of well-known Indonesian media who are based in Jakarta and Bali. This state-of-the-art viewing feature enables anyone interested to view all of the residences luxuriously designed apartment units in a 380-degree virtual world.
A serviced residence complex, she continued that is part of a distinguished global brand, InterContinental Residences Jakarta Pondok Indah rigorously applies the IHG Way of Clean which includes deep cleaning with hospital-grade disinfectants.
“Guests and residents can expect to see enhanced procedures, which may include face-covering requirements, various ways to reduce contact throughout the properties, social distancing measures within public spaces and procedures based on local authorities’ guidance and/or advice. This means while still maintaining their sophisticated lifestyle, the affluent residents of the residences can still feel safe and secure at all times,” Rowena concluded. [traveltext.id].
