Connoisseur Properties has launched Summer Suites, a 44-storey freehold serviced apartment development in the heart of Johor Bahru, approximately 850m from the Johor Bahru Customs, Immigration and Quarantine Complex (CIQ) and the future Bukit Chagar RTS Station. Occupying about 1.467 acres of land, the single-tower project comprises 748 residential units with built-up sizes ranging from 599 sq ft to 912 sq ft.
The development offers dual-key configurations and family-oriented layouts across three unit types. Type A, a three-bedroom dual-key layout of 912 sq ft, is priced from RM915,000 to RM1,068,000. Type B, a 2+1-bedroom unit of 808 sq ft, ranges from RM780,000 to RM922,500. Type C, a compact dual-studio layout of 599 sq ft, is priced from RM620,000 to RM728,000. All units come with kitchen cabinets, cooking hoods and hobs as standard, alongside smart-home features including digital door locks and voice-controlled lighting.
Recreational and communal facilities are concentrated on Level 10 and include a half-Olympic swimming pool, children's pool, jacuzzi, gymnasium, sauna, co-working space, media room, multi-purpose hall, BBQ area and a basketball half-court. A 24-hour AI Mart, laundry area and learning centre are also provided. The project is scheduled for completion in 2029.
Summer Suites' key selling point is its proximity to the Johor Bahru–Singapore border. The future RTS Link, connecting Bukit Chagar to Woodlands North in about five minutes, is expected to strengthen cross-border connectivity. The development is also within five minutes' drive of JB Sentral, Johor Bahru City Square and KOMTAR JBCC, subject to traffic, and is accessible via Jalan Bukit Meldrum, the Eastern Dispersal Link and Tebrau Highway.
The developer, Connoisseur Properties, positions Summer Suites as an investment-oriented residential option for Malaysian professionals working in Singapore, cross-border commuters and investors seeking freehold city-centre property. However, prospective buyers should consider the development's commercial title under the Housing Development Act, its high unit density of 748 apartments in a single tower, and potential rental competition from other serviced apartments in the Johor Bahru city centre.
