The Kingdom of Bahrain has always been a beacon of development and a hub for investments and investors where large-scale developments are seeing the day of light and grabbing the attention of real estate investors from all corners of the globe.

A new seafront project with the worth of 119 million dollars is about to commence in Bahrain and it is expected to become the hottest seafront hangout destination to many locals and visitors alike upon its completion in May 2019.

About the project

Developed in the Muharraq area of Bahrain, Saada West is a mixed-use waterfront development that provides retail and hospitality services. The project is strategically located at the entrance to the old city and will house a promenade with family entertainment, harbourside dining and a modern marina.

This large-scale project in Bahrain is mainly designed to become the outlet for citizens living in Muharraq, as well as a recreational and commercial monument in the area.

Saada West development will be divided into two phases. According to the developers, reclamation works in phase one has been fully completed which will include residential and retail facilities that comprise of restaurants, cafes, entertainment facilities and a marina; whereas the second phase will feature the construction of seven buildings with a total of 45 retail and dining units that are linked with the city’s traditional souq, in addition to a multi-storey car park built to accommodate up to 500 cars.
