Excellent facilities, especially comparing to
Excellent facilities, especially comparing to its contemporaries of its era, a hallmark of Far East Organization, its developer. The passenger lifts even come with air-cons and piped in music.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Oldie but goody!
Although fifteen years old, owners are hanging on to their condos here because it really is a nice place to live. The higher floors are best, and when the planned MRT is up and running, The Bayshore will become even more popular. Internally, most units could probably do with some refurbishment now, but with a bit of style and flair, there will always be eager tenants and buyers.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Poorly designed and features starting to look
The Bayshore is all show with not a great deal of practicable use. The towers are overbearing and painted in gloomy grey. The laundry area is designed so it is almost impossible to dry your washing. The tiny space between apartments is the cause of this. You van almost reach out the kitchen window and touch the kitchen next door. The overall design is a little garish and gaudy, trying to give the Condo a feeling of 'prestige'. Do not move into an apartment facing the pools. The fountains are like gushing rivers and are incredibly noisy for the 10 hours a day they are running. Security seems lax too. It is easy for strangers to wait at the side gate and just walk in when a resident uses their electronic card. If you own a bicycle do not lock in in the underground car park. Bicycles get stolen from here regularly and the racks are not well designed. You cannot lock the bike frame but only the front wheel. The condo management gives the attitude that it is just a bike and they dont really take it too seriously. Why are we living in a gated community if people can just walk in side gates and bicycles can be stolen On a positive note, if you have kids, the Bayshore is ideal as there are many families and the kids all play happily together outside. The demographic of residents seems to be mainly expatriates from south Asia due to the proximity on the upper east coast to employment. The bus stop on the upper East Coast Rd is practical and there are several destinations including the MRT and buses into the city. The Costa Del Sol Condo is a disaster for The Bayshore as it blocks sea views and breezes and is just across the road. It has a brilliant grocery store though, something that is missing in The Bayshore.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Second to None
- Mediterranean style resort living with an ideal combination of scenic landscaping and seascaping. - High standard condo finishes and well constructed architectural design that won't look dated. Very spacious too. - Excellent location in the most sought-after East Coast district. which is just next to the popular stretch of East Coast beach, where there is an abundance of food, entertainment and recreational outlets. - Prominent schools such as Temasek & Victoria, shopping centres like Siglap Centre and Parkway Parade are also in the immediate vicinity. - The condo is conveniently linked to other parts of Singapore via major expressways and has direct linkage to the airport and to the city via the ECP. - 5 mins shuttle bus ride to Bedok MRT station and public bus service direct CBD & Orchard road.Was this review helpful?

Timeless & Resort Living
Recently my family and I attended a relative's BBQ held at The Bayshore. Overall I must say that I was impressed with the layout, design, space and professionalism of the management. They even had many security guards petroling the area every now and then to make sure the security is tight. The development itself is about 10.5 yrs old but the feel I had was like, its only 5-6 yrs old. Everything was very well maintained and very neat too. The clubhouse ambience and finish is much up class as compared to my newer development which I am currently living in. There is a posh resort feel upon entering. The land space, pool size, gym and clubhouse are also huge compared to my newer "mickey mouse" like condo with miniture pool, gym and no clubhouse! Lots of ample parking space for visitors too. The units are triangular shaped, kind of designer style as compared to the usual boring sqaure design, which might require some interior design creativity to bring out the best of it. Bonus point is the East Coast Beach and the Laguna hawker centre is just 5-10mins stroll away. Resort living and tranquility is the keyword. I would definately consider this place in future if I decide to invest or shift to a new home.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Good facade & comfy landscaping
Although the estate is 11 yrs old, it does still exudes an aura of charm thanks to the babylonian architectural design and good maintenance of the facade by the management. Good and spacious areas for kids to run and play in the clubhouse, playground and gardens. With 1000 units in the estate, it does not feel cram and pack like the newer developments today. The unit sizes are oddly shaped though but it will do well with good ID. Its a pity that its been blocked by costa del sol else the seaview wold have been great. On hindsight, it may be good thing that its blocked by a large building as it does dampen the sound from the expressway. The clubhouse also sites a security concierge and the management office. Very classy clubhouse indeed!Was this review helpful? Report review -

Hidden Gem in East Coast
I recently visited a friend at The Bayshore and after hearing so much about this project, my first impression upon entering the grounds was a good one. I could not believe the posh factor that the facilities exude and the lift lobby really blew me away with its resort like ambience. For a project of about 11 years old, the surroundings are well maintained and there was this feeling of tranquility and spaciousness when I toured the grounds. The units are not of the normal squarish layouts but this is where the skills of a good interior designer come to play. A good renovation can turn the units into something very desirable. The close proximity to East Coast Park and the Lagoon food centre is a plus factor and will mainly cater to those who enjoy outdoor life. Truly a Gem in the East.Was this review helpful?

One Of The Best In The East
Got a very high floor unit recently. Awesome breathtaking city view especially at night. For sea view lovers, only tower 1A and 2A stand a higher chance as most of the units in tower 1B and 2B are blocked by Costa Del Sol. This a place ideal for those who love coastal living as east coast park is only 5mins walk via the underpass. For those who do not drive not to worry as there is a shuttle bus service to nearby mrt stations and also to town. Side gate also leads to nearby bus-stop. Many amenities such as supermarkets, cafes, hawker food etc are nearby in East Coast Park, Siglap and Bedok area. Good schools like Temasek is also within 1km. The architectural design is timeless and feels prestigious with a touch of luxury. The facilities are complete with all you ever need in a condominum. The lift lobby feels like hotel style and the lift itself is air-conditioned with music. The unit itself has a very unique design from the usual conventional squarish which may be a double-edged sword but with good ID works, this can be overcomed pretty easily. High quality granite is also used for the flooring and surface tops including the kitchen and bathroom. Considering that The Bayshore has been around for at least 11 years, it doesn't seem so from the outlook. I have seen newer developments built after year 2000 but looked much older. For beach lovers who love serene, tranquil and lifestlye living, this is the place for you. No regrets ever since.Was this review helpful? Report review -
