Enjoying a captivating seafront location on Lantau Island in Hong Kong, Discovery Bay is our flagship project which covers a land area of about 650 hectares, nestling between the calm waters of the South China Sea and verdant tree lined hills.  In 1977, Discovery Bay was just a barren piece of unused land. Engineered by the Group, it has been transformed into a fully integrated international standard resort style residential development. This vibrant community comprises various lifestyle living options including spacious garden homes, and low-, mid- and high-rise residential apartments. It provides a carefree resort experience for residents, complemented by an array of enticing leisure amenities for an active, healthy lifestyle. 

Every facet of the project, including the infrastructure and transportation connecting Discovery Bay with different parts of Hong Kong, was conceived and developed by the Group from scratch. Discovery Bay is linked by ferries and buses, plus a privately-built tunnel funded by the Group, which provide Discovery Bay residents with seamless, convenient transportation services.  Throughout the years, a total gross floor area of over 1,000,000 square metres have been developed or are under development. Poggibonsi and IL PICCO are the latest luxury residential projects in Discovery Bay. Under the Discovery Bay Master Plan 7.0E, which covers an additional gross floor area of over 1.3 million square feet, over 1,400 residential units will be provided in Discovery Bay North in the next few years.

With greenery making up two-thirds of the entire Discovery Bay, it is Hong Kong’s first “eco-friendly town” and also widely acknowledged as a pioneering concept for sustainable integrated residential developments in Asia. HKRI will continue to develop and grow Discovery Bay to provide the best homes, ancillary facilities and living environment for its residents and visitors.
