Kleindienst Group, an established real estate and property developer with global expertise spanning more than 30 years, will be showcasing its Floating Seahorse for the first time outside of the UAE at the Gulf Property Show to be held in Bahrain from May 12 to 14.

An aesthetically-designed contemporary marine-style product, the Floating Seahorse was officially launched at the Dubai International Boat Show in March and was then showcased at Cityscape Abu Dhabi in April.

The Floating Seahorse is a unique concept which has been intelligently designed, engineered and developed in Dubai. It is essentially a boat not a villa and only 42 units have been launched in the UAE emirate.  

Since its launch, the iconic product has sparked a great deal of interest in the media and among clients and investors in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Maldives, Seychelles, The Caribbean, Sweden, Portugal and Norway.   

Kleindienst Group said it was thrilled to be showcasing the Floating Seahorse for the first time outside the UAE since its Dubai launch.  

At the Gulf Property Show, visitors will be able to view the 3D model of the floating retreat and find out more about the investment opportunity.

"Since launching the Floating Seahorse, we have been inundated with local, regional and international enquiries. We are excited to not just offer people a once in a lifetime investment opportunity in Dubai but on a global scale," remarked Group CEO Josef Kleindienst.

"The Floating Seahorse is not restricted to Dubai waters and can be designed and fabricated in Dubai for other resorts and destinations worldwide," he stated.

The Floating Seahorse is a truly unique underwater product which is the first of its kind in the world. In real terms, The Floating Seahorse is a marine style retreat (essentially a boat without propulsion) which has its own plot in the Arabian Gulf.

To be located only a short boat ride from the coast of Dubai, each individual Floating Seahorse will boast three levels, one underwater, one at sea level and an upper deck.

The master bedroom and bathroom will be totally submerged underwater and will command breathtaking views of the surrounding coral reef and marine life! The sea level accommodation will boast floor to ceiling windows, uninterrupted sea views, a fully-fitted kitchen with a dining area, an open plan living area and when the glass façade opens the sun deck becomes an extension of the living space.

The upper deck is the perfect place for alfresco dining and relaxation and features an informal bed, a mini bar, a kitchenette and a beautiful glass-bottomed Jacuzzi.  The deck can be converted into a winter bedroom which can be enclosed with retractable drapes.

The Floating Seahorse has been designed and developed by leading European architects for Kleindienst Group’s iconic island project, located just 4km from the coast of Dubai.  

Kleindienst said: "Many months of research, design and planning have gone into The Floating Seahorse and we are excited to be able to officially launch and build it in Dubai. We are confident that it will set a new benchmark in the luxury lifestyle market worldwide for outstanding innovation, contemporary design and underwater living at its best."  

"Many dream about living close to marine life and underwater living and Kleindienst Group is thrilled to be making it a reality for the privileged few in the diverse and innovative city of Dubai," he stated.

The estimated completion date for The Floating Seahorse is 2016-end.

For people wondering why this particular project is called The Floating Seahorse, Kleindienst explained: "The seahorse is an endangered species and we will create an artificial coral reef beneath the luxury retreats which will be a protected area in which seahorses can safely live and breed. Very soon, people will be able to see up-close and personal, the beautiful and elegant Arabian horse of the ocean - the seahorse!”

“Kleindeinst are innovators in the real estate sector and their attendance at the Gulf Property Show is an exciting showcase for investors from Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to inspect a unique development and investment opportunity", said Jubran Abdulrahman, the managing director of Hilal Conferences and Exhibition, the event organiser.
