Just 2 weeks ago after attending Pesta Wirausaha TDA, I updated my dream: to have a resort in east Indonesia and Greece. If you know me well, I’m such a sunset hunter and a beach lover. Thus I always love beautiful views like these…
Did I mention I also love snorkeling? My kids just had their first experience snorkeling last weekend, and they love it too! Looking at these beautiful creatures becomes so addictive =) And where is the best snorkeling and diving spot in Indonesia? The famous Raja Ampat. Exactly.
Last week, a friend informed me about The Cove, the first luxury time-based resort in Raja Ampat. It is nested in a hidden treasure Yeben Island, also known as “Mirror Ocean” for its water clarity. Look at the design, no other word to describe than “beautiful”. The lobby’s architecture is designed like manta fish :)
The Cove offers VIP benefits for its owners that includes ownership of 1 luxurious bedroom villa, VIP yacht service from Sorong, private diving spot, diving lesson for kids, unlimited use of water sports activities, and many more. Note that ownership valid for 2 adults and 2 kids under 12 year old and can be transferred to family and friends at no extra cost!
Now you might wonder about the price, and thought it must be unbelievably expensive. So did I. But it came to my surprise that the price is very reasonable: only US$ 35.000 for 30 years using period. It is actually much lower than my apartments in Serpong and Bekasi :D And it comes even better with special payment methods for Indonesian citizen. See full details below:
So how much one can save for having one week holiday in Raja Ampat if s/he has The Cove VIP benefits, especially for a family with 2 kids like me? Up to US$ 12.000 ! It means, it took only US$ 89 / day to have the luxury holiday, in Yeben Island, Raja Ampat!
To top all of that, The Cove VIP owners will also get profit sharing that will be paid monthly! Yes, since The Cove is a time-share based investment, by getting the ownership you will be entitled 4 weeks use of The Cove per year. So how about the other 11 months? The management will rent it to visitors for US$ 2.300 per week per person! The Cove management will get 60% and VIP Owners will get 40% share.
This is an offer I probably need to consider, so I keep their contact in my wallet. *crossing fingers*
