FROM BONDI TO BALI – ICEBERGS BEACH CLUB CANGGU TO OPEN AT SEA SENTOSA
Sentosa Worldwide Resorts announces a partnership with internationally acclaimed restaurateur, Maurice Terzini, to open the first international Icebergs Beach Club Canggu at Sea Sentosa, located along 142 metres of beachfront land on Canggu’s world famous surf beach. Opening in early 2015, the project will be the first collaboration between the highly successful international magazine publisher, Deke Miskin, and Maurice Terzini, bringing the Icebergs experience to a global audience.
Sea Sentosa is a collaborative project between some of the world’s most highly regarded designers, who have put their heads and hearts together to create something extraordinary.
“Our vision is to work with Maurice Terzini and bring Icebergs to an international resort setting. Icebergs is recognised throughout the world for the dining and visual experience that it represents – it is unforgettable to all that have experienced it. Icebergs has a very special and unique audience, where global superstars hang with local surfers to create a dynamic that is unique to what Maurice has created,” said Ian Duffell, CEO and Saxon Looker, Founder of Sentosa Worldwide Resorts. “Sea Sentosa has been created to bring a similar lifestyle to the world stage and in doing so, this partnership will ensure an experience that is truly remarkable and will become a global destination.”
VISION FOR ICEBERGS BEACH CLUB BRAND AND EXPERIENCE
In developing the concept for Icebergs Canggu, Maurice and his design team have drawn particular inspiration from the iconic photography of Slim Aarrons from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s; glamour and enjoyment in an idyllic setting with an experience that is both accessible as well as inspirational. Maurice has again partnered with Claudio Lazzarini and Carl Pickering at Lazzarini Pickering Architetti in Rome, who, in addition to award-winning work on the design of Icebergs Dining Room and Bar in Bondi, count Fendi and Burberry among their clients.
“I have been travelling to Bali for almost three decades. I have been waiting for the right opportunity and this is it! Very excited,” said Maurice Terzini.
“Icebergs Beach Club Canggu at Sea Sentosa is our first international outpost and the beginning of a global business relationship that Maurice Terzini and I have long planned. Maurice is a master at creating an environment and experience that is incomparable to any other in the world,“ said Deke Miskin. “The team at Sea Sentosa have created a Resort environment that is innovative in both design and their approach to what will be on offer for their guests, creating a global destination and something very unique in Bali and the world over. It is an ideal partnership for us.”
SEA SENTOSA
Located directly on the beachfront at Echo Beach, Sea Sentosa will open in early 2015. Set on 2.8 hectares of beachfront property, the fully integrated resort will provide guests with a choice of 44 one bedroom apartments, 11 two bedroom apartments, 12 Penthouses, 8 Deluxe Studios, 17 Garden Studios, 36 Hotel Rooms and 2 two bedroom Premium Suites. The Resort has already received international accolades, winning WORLD’S BEST APARTMENT at the International Property Awards in December 2012 in London.
After 21 years at the helm of ambitious resorts projects, Sentosa Worldwide Resorts Founder Saxon Looker has the unique ability to see a completed development in his minds eye and assemble just the right talent to create his vision in everything from design to culture and service.
Architect Giacomo Passera has successfully been able to blend Sea Sentosa into the local environment. Each fully appointed apartment is an example of Italian design coupled with the finest local Indonesian materials. Sculpted vertical garden walls by French botanist Patrick Blanc will be complemented beautifully by curated art. Expansive outdoor terraces and balconies provide panoramic views of the Indian Ocean beachfront and sculpted volcanic rocks.
Sea Sentosa is 45 minutes from the airport, 15 minutes from Nirwana Golf and Country Club designed by Greg Norman, and 15 minutes from the cosmopolitan heart of Bali, Seminyak. Surfers travel thousands of miles to surf Canggu, with residents and guests of Sea Sentosa only having to walk a few metres to choose between a beach break or reef break.
