07/04/2021

Praised media outlet Business Journal has described Crystal Lagoons® amenities as the latest craze in the business, igniting the desire of developers around the world to invest in new and modern ways to attract customers.

According to the piece posted on the Austin run of the publication, Crystal Lagoons is at the helm of this trend, thanks to its sustainable waters, eco-friendly environment, and low-cost and high return that come with PAL™ developments.

Because of this, and the success of Lago Mar, Crystal Lagoons® biggest project in Texas, the Lone Star State has enjoyed the benefits of turquoise waters and tropical beach life just minutes from their home and has become a highly valued amenity for residents and visitors. Even during the pandemic, there were reports of daily income of over $50,000 on tickets alone.

This level of success will not be restricted during summer. Thanks to our patented Hot Reef™ technology, heated waters will be available all year long, making it an amenity like no other, and becoming the world’s top amenity.

U.S. market

Crystal Lagoons has numerous ongoing operations worldwide, but those spotted across the U.S., such as Solé Mia, Balmoral, Windsong Ranch, Lake Nona, Section 31, Southshore Bay, Mirada, Avenir, Sierra Vista, have confirmed the United States as the company’s leading market.

In addition, the company is expanding its successful Public Access Lagoons™ projects offering ticketed-entry, also known as PAL™ projects, in Florida and Texas, and important master agreements such as the one signed with Epic for 16 developments in different geographical areas.

“We are holding advanced negotiations with investment funds and leading malls in Florida, California, South and North Carolina, Texas, Arizona and Oklahoma for additional master agreements, which now represent 90% of the firm’s contracts,” adds Manzur.

Lagoon Pilar, strategically located in Buenos Aires, the fastest growing area of the Pilar area, is one of Crystal Lagoons’ most successful projects in Argentina. Powered by Crystal Lagoons and Grupo Monarca, this development stands out for being anchored by an 8,6-acre crystalline lagoon, the heart of the project. More than just a distinctive visual element, this lagoon has been instrumental in boosting the project’s added value and significantly accelerating the sale speed of the marketed properties.

Crystal Lagoons® technology has proven to be a key differentiator for Lagoon Pilar, as confirmed by Luis Signoris, the project’s developer. “Crystal Lagoons generates a significant increase in the square meter value, surpassing the standard of other projects in the area.” The executive emphasizes that this amenity offers residents a unique lifestyle and impacts those who visit Lagoon Pilar,. “We aimed to have that exact impact when we decided to incorporate a crystalline lagoon into the project.”

The artificial lagoon is surrounded by 800 premium residential units and a complete infrastructure, including a clubhouse, restaurants, spa, and sports areas, among other services. Additionally, it features three white sand beaches, allowing residents to enjoy the lagoon all day long and engage in various water activities such as Stand Up Paddle, kayaking, windsurfing, and swimming.

“In Argentina, beyond the different economic situations, the success of Crystal Lagoons does not stop. Projects incorporating lagoons generate exponential added value in the real estate sector. The projection is even more positive because an increase in foreign investment is expected in the coming months, which will further boost the real estate market”, explains Francisco Matte, Crystal Lagoons’ regional director for Latin America.

The press continues highlighting the world’s largest crystalline lagoon with Crystal Lagoons® technology at Citystars Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. This stunning amenity in the middle of the Sinai desert, spanning 28.8 acres of turquoise waters, has been the subject of numerous reports highlighting its unique features.

Since 2015, this mega-project has held Crystal Lagoons’ second Guinness World Record as the largest crystalline body of water globally, surpassing its record from 2007 when the iconic San Alfonso del Mar crystalline lagoon was certified as the world’s largest.

Citystars Sharm El Sheikh results from an association between the Crystal Lagoons and the Sharbatly family, one of the oldest and most prominent in the Middle East and Africa. Crystal Lagoons® technology has added real estate value to the development by transforming undeveloped desert lands into a paradisiacal setting.

The monumental crystalline lagoon at Citystars Sharm El Sheikh, in the Sinai, is supplied without use with saline water from desert wells, creating tropical seas amid an arid environment.

Crystal Lagoons® technology has achieved what was previously thought technically impossible: the construction of artificial lagoons of unlimited sizes anywhere in the world, even in the heart of the desert. Today, this innovation allows for the idyllic beach experience to be brought to unexpected locations, gaining worldwide recognition for its transformative impact.

Once again, the prestigious international entertainment, travel, and tourism guide Time Out has turned its attention to the Crystal Lagoons Treasure Bay project on the idyllic island of Bintan, Indonesia. Its recent edition of recommendations on what to see, do, and experience highlighted this project as essential to include in travelers’ itineraries and a must-visit in the region due to its unique features, as the largest crystalline lagoon in Southeast Asia with sustainable Crystal Lagoons® technology spanning 15.5 acres, equivalent to 50 Olympic-size swimming pools, surrounded by 1,400 meters of white sandy beaches.

Time Out recommended this project developed under the Public Access Lagoons™ model, also known as PAL™ developments, emphasizing the variety of aquatic experiences that can be enjoyed across its 222 acres, allowing visitors to indulge in beach life year-round with options for dining, spa, shopping, entertainment, and nightlife. Within the artificial lagoon, an oasis of turquoise waters, visitors can partake in water sports such as bungee jumping, cable water skiing, boating, slides, paddleboarding, kayaking, and wakeboarding.

With its monumental body of water, Treasure Bay has established itself as a unique experience on the paradise island of Bintan, Indonesia. Bintan, known for its nearly 3,000 islands, strategically faces Singapore and Johor Bahru, Malaysia. It offers many tourist attractions, including world-class golf courses, hiking, elephant parks, eco-farms, luxury spas, and beach activities.

This PAL™ development is surrounded by 1,400 meters of white sandy beaches, with a length of 800 meters and reaching a maximum depth of 2.5 meters.

The artificial lagoon allows visitors to enjoy beach life year-round with dining options, spas, shops, entertainment, and nightlife.PAL™ projects, which anyone can access for an entrance fee, transform any site into a year-round entertainment hub with more than 125 activities that can take place in the lagoon itself or its surroundings.
