About The Berth by the Cove

The Berth by the Cove is a low-rise waterfront condominium at 200 to 228 Ocean Drive in Sentosa Cove, within District 4 (Sentosa / HarbourFront / Telok Blangah). The listing address, 218 Ocean Drive, is one of about 15 blocks in the estate. It was developed by Ho Bee (Sentosa) Pte Ltd, part of the Ho Bee group, and completed in 2006. The land is held on a 99-year lease that began in March 2004. There are 200 homes in blocks of up to six storeys, designed by Axis Architects Planners.

The project is built around the water. Property directories record 25 yacht berths within the development, which explains the name. Homes range from two-bedroom apartments to five-bedroom units and penthouses. Shared facilities include swimming pools, a gymnasium, a clubhouse, a spa pool and barbecue pavilions, with parking in a basement car park. It remains a private residential estate managed by MCST 3220.
