THE LILY 129 Repulse Bay, Hong Kong Website: www.thelily.com.hk

A collaboration between Hong Kong’s ChinaChem Group and renowned London architects Foster and Partners, The Lily is one of Hong Kong’s most coveted residential addresses, and an ideal option for short or long term stays in the city.

The award-winning residential property exudes elegance, modernity and

convenience in every detail. The four towers that make up the complex are stunning convex steel and glass structures that soar above the exclusive locale of Repulse Bay, and in the lobby, residents and guests are welcomed by a piece of bespoke metal artwork by Chinese sculptor Danny Lee. As well as the 100 serviced and residential apartments, the property provides a plethora of convenient amenities such as a 24-hour concierge service, a shuttle service to the centre of the city and a high level of security. Situated off Repulse Bay Road, The Lily also affords easy access to good schools, fine dining, luxury shopping, and the waterfront eateries and trendy bars at nearby Stanley, just 10 minutes away.

Apartments at The Lily are opulent, spacious and beautifully-appointed, making a stay of any duration an absolute delight. Cooking and entertaining couldn’t be easier here, with each apartment featuring modern kitchens which are a study in German engineering. German brand Pggenpohl designed the pristine kitchens, and Gaggenau, also from Germany, has fitted them out with cutting-edge appliances. In the sprawling living areas, floor to ceiling windows open up the space and offer breathtaking views of the South China Sea or lush mountains.

For shorter stays, The Lily’s 34 serviced apartments offer a convenient home away from home. Starting from 1816sqft two-bedroom plus study spaces and ranging up to sweeping 3924sqft penthouses, the serviced

apartments are elegant, spacious, and feature only the most luxurious fixtures. Bulgari amenities sit on the bathroom counters, while in the bedroom, king and queen sized beds are covered with feather down duvets and made up with pillows selected from an extensive pillow menu. Technophiles will feel right at home here with high-speed wifi, 52-inch HD televisions with cable access, 5.1 surround sound systems and iPod docking stations. An added benefit, the 6-time weekly maid service that comes with the apartments means that you will always be ready to welcome guests.

The 66 other apartments at The Lily are exclusive residential units. While the kitchens have been fitted out in the same modern style as the serviced apartments, the residential units have purposely been kept largely unfurnished in order to give you the opportunity to make your own mark on these sumptuous apartments. The residential units begin at 3545sqft and come in three-bedroom duplex or four-bedroom simplex configurations. The pièce de résistance, however, is the 8000sqft, 2-storey Sky Light penthouse. Along with all the luxuries and amenities offered by the other apartments, the lavish penthouse boasts two expansive terraces and spectacular sea views. The most breathtaking feature, however, is the penthouse’s second floor ceiling, which is made almost entirely of glass. This striking architectural feature allows the apartment to be bathed in sun during the day, and affords wondrous views of the star-studded sky at night.

But The Lily is much more than just a residence, it offers an entire way of life. The Lily’s resident’s club promises hours of entertainment and activity for the whole family. Kids can run around at the indoor and outdoor playgrounds, play games at the kids’ internet zone, or splash around at the play pool under the watchful eye of a lifeguard. Meanwhile, parents can relax at the indoor pool, complete with designer deck chairs and an elegant waterfall flowing from the glass atrium, or stay fit at the state of the art gym which features the high-quality free weights and resistance and cardio equipment.

Whether you choose to make The Lily your temporary Hong Kong base or your permanent home, you will enjoy all the comfort and convenience of one of Hong Kong’s most exclusive address.
