Bayfancy reaches its 17th floor and shows what it will hold: pool, gym, play area and co-working

Over the summer of 2025 Bayfancy Residence kept climbing:

• 12th floor: 30 July;
• 13th floor: 9 August;
• 14th floor: 19 August;
• 15th floor: 26 August;
• 16th floor: 4 September;
• 17th floor: 14 September.

The day after the 17th slab, the developer showed what that floor is for.

Level 17: one floor for residents

Bayfancy has given the whole 17th floor to shared amenities:

• an infinity pool with loungers and shaded seating;
• a fitness centre and yoga studio;
• a children's play area;
• a billiards lounge, a barbecue terrace and outdoor dining;
• a reading room;
• co-working space and meeting rooms;
• a multipurpose hall for gatherings and events.

The developer says the floor will have automated lighting and climate control.

The lobby

A month earlier Bayfancy had shown its lobby design:

• a double-height space with a ceiling over six metres;
• a concierge desk, a seating area and a vertical garden wall;
• lighting that shifts in warmth through the day.

Why it matters

Amenity floors are a selling point in every new Hulhumalé building. Bayfancy has given its amenities a whole floor. Buyers should note that all of it depends on running costs being covered. Ask how the service charge will be set before you buy.
