(NEW YORK) — One luxury real estate company is creating islands you will want to be stranded on forever.
Amillarah Private Islands is a collaboration between luxury real estate developer OQYANA Real Estate and floating island expert Dutch Docklands. The two companies have come together to create a series of floating islands called the Amillarah Private Islands villas.
The Floating Private Islands will be located within the ‘OQYANA World First development’ on ‘The World Islands’ project in Dubai, and was approved by Nakheel, the master developer of ‘The World Islands’ project, this past June.
According to Paul Van de Camp, the CEO of Dutch Docklands, the Floating Private Islands are one of a kind; the collaboration makes Amillarah Private Islands “the only company in the world offering Floating Private Islands.”
“Our ‘Amillarah Private Islands’ are completely self-supporting, scarless and all contain the latest state-of-the-art technology,” said Van de Camp. “Each one will be a piece of art that you can live in.”
Privacy has never been more luxurious than the Amillarah Floating Private Islands. Each island will have its own residence, garden, pool, beach and much more.
The size and shape of each island can also be customized according to the owner’s preference.
Architect and creative director of Amillarah Private Islands Koen Olthuis explained that the Private Floating Islands will use state-of-the-art green technology to minimize the environmental impact of the islands.
“Our Private Islands are part of a new trend in green developments in which luxury and quality will be combined with a scarless approach,” Olthuis said.
Amillarah Private Islands also teamed up with the Ocean Futures Society to ensure the project was as environmentally friendly as possible.
The Society, established by Jean-Michel Cousteau, son of famous Oceanographer Jacques Cousteau, investigates “new and better ways to enhance the reaction of artificial reefs below the islands.”
“Our association makes sure that the ocean is being respected and that the environmental impact is near zero,” said Cousteau. To be able to protect the environment which will be under those structures is one of the most exciting times of my life!”
