Moorea Bay II

Moorea Bay II condenses the discreet luxury of Bikini into a building of just twenty residences, seventy meters from the sea. The second stage of the classic Moorea Bay raises the bar: eight units have private pools, terraces take center stage, and panoramic ocean views accompany you from the living room. The finishes speak for themselves — Spanish Cortizo joinery, signature bathrooms, wood-clad kitchens with Calacatta Gold countertops — and the service package completes the experience with heated indoor and outdoor pools, a gym, dry sauna, housekeeping and beach service. Developed by Donato Development with Fernández Prieto and built by RyR Constructora, the building is already finished and occupied. For those who want to wake up facing Bikini without giving up privacy or construction quality, this is one of the most precise addresses in Manantiales.

The development comprises just twenty two- and three-bedroom apartments, eight of which have a private pool — a rare luxury even on the Manantiales beachfront. Low density defines the experience: few neighbors, wide terraces where summer life unfolds, and the feeling of your own house with the convenience of a completed, occupied building. The service package works like a discreet hotel: a heated indoor pool and a heated outdoor pool, gym, dry sauna, maid service and seasonal beach service, plus private gardens for the ground-floor units. For those looking to arrive with their suitcase and start living, with no construction and no waiting, it's one of the few premium options available in the area.

Moorea Bay II is a joint work by Estudio Fernández Prieto, from Argentina, and Estudio Chiacchio, from Uruguay, built by RyR Constructora, the Maldonado-based company with three decades of family heritage in the field. The building adds up to about 3.400 m² built and translates the language of coastal luxury to an intimate scale: statement terraces, panoramic ocean views from the living room, and a selection of materials that leaves no loose ends. The Spanish Cortizo joinery, the designer bathrooms and the wood-clad kitchens with Calacatta Gold countertops make up a standard of finishes unusual for buildings of this size. The second stage of the classic Moorea Bay was born to raise the bar set by the first, and it succeeded: today it is one of the most sought-after addresses in Bikini.

The address says almost everything: Ruta 10 facing Bikini beach, seventy meters from the sand. Bikini is the beach that defines summer in Manantiales — surf lessons in the morning, sports in the afternoon, long sunsets — and living a minute's walk away changes your relationship with the sea: you come and go several times a day, with no car and no logistics. The immediate surroundings add the resort's classic dining scene and shops just steps away, with La Barra five minutes away and downtown Punta del Este a quarter of an hour away. Developed by Donato Development together with Fernández Prieto, the building is completed and established, with Bikini's neighborhood life as its best amenity.
