This year, visitors to Property Arabia exhibition in Bahrain can truly live the Riffa Views Signature experience, with the full luxury of the residential and golf development’s lifestyle on show.

Riffa Views this year holds one of the largest stands, featuring an extensive display showcasing two of the three Signature Estates – The Lagoons and The Oasis – with different yet complementary landscaping and architectural styles, perfectly blending modern ambience with a Middle Eastern feel.
As a world-class residential and golf development, Riffa Views considers this year’s Property Arabia of great importance in helping to put Bahrain on the map as a global player in the real estate and tourism markets.
Riffa Views’ CEO, Richard Browning, commented: “We have a prestigious stand at this year’s Property Arabia, where the Signature Estates’ luxurious community has been truly brought to life.”
Visitors will experience the look and feel of the villas – having a small taste of what life will be like when they chose to live in a locality where the needs of the residents are paramount. Information on the unbeatable range of facilities will be available – these last comprise a comprehensive range of amenities including an 18-hole PGA championship Colin Montgomery golf course, a nine-hole executive golf course, a golf academy, a country club with a tennis facility in association with Boris Becker, a shopping mall, a luxury hotel and an international school, all surrounded by pleasant walkways and spacious parklands.
Members of Riffa Views team will be on hand to inform visitors all details about the townhouses and villas available within the Signature Estates. They will offer details from interior themes to information on return on investment. With customer choice and individuality as a priority, residence interiors can be selected to suit each residents’ choice. 
“As well as representing an excellent opportunity to showcase the luxury lifestyle Riffa Views provides, it is also a forum for us to inform regional visitors of the potential Bahrain has as a sound investment choice,” added Mr Browning. “The kingdom’s economy is booming, and real estate laws now allow freehold ownership to Bahrainis and foreigners, which is a major pull for those wishing to invest in the most luxurious development on the Island, Riffa Views.”
The stand will also show how the development captures the spirit of its surrounding landscape in a unique way using a blend of architectural styles, colours and plants. For this purpose, specific building materials have been selected to suit the environmental conditions of Bahrain with the aim of providing only the very best international standards of living for all residents.
Two of the three Estates – The Lagoons and The Oasis- are situated around the verdant perimeter of the 18-hole Colin Montgomerie-designed Signature golf course. The third Estate, The Park, is the most private enclave within the three, since it is to be found at a slight remove from the golf course. To be released later this year, The Park caters for residents who wish to benefit from all the facilities Riffa Views provides in unique Mediterranean setting.
Work on the residential development is right on schedule, with the first of 972 villas ready for delivery to their new owners by mid-2008. The $625 million project is due for overall completion by mid-2009.
