The morning sound of waves lapping the shore, the cool sea breeze in the afternoon, and the chance to briefly forget emails, traffic and everyday responsibilities —these are the vibes that only a beach holiday can bring
For those who already spend weekends and family holidays by the coast, having a place of their own by the beach might feel like the natural next step.
That is the lifestyle behind OSK Ombak, a freehold beachfront development with direct access to Balok Beach in Kuantan.
Following the full take-up of Phase 1 within three months, OSK Property has brought forward the Phase 2 final release of OSK Ombak
Originally planned for a later date, Phase 2 was brought forward by 18 months following strong response to the development's first release, with prices starting from RM380,000*.
Located along Balok Beach in Kuantan, OSK Ombak is a freehold beachfront development designed for people looking for a holiday home, weekend escape or flexible place to stay by the sea.
It is also the final phase of OSK Property's established Balok Beach precinct, following Swiss Garden Resort Residences and TimurBay Seafront Residences.
*Terms and conditions apply.
Here are five highlights that make OSK Ombak worth looking at:
1. The development offers direct access to Balok Beach
For most people, a beach holiday usually involves searching for accommodation, comparing prices, making extensive decisions before packing even starts.
At OSK Ombak, Balok Beach is right outside your doorstep, so morning walks by the shore and quiet evenings by the sea can easily become part of your routine.
The seafront development takes inspiration from Mediterranean resorts, bringing a laid-back holiday atmosphere closer to home.
It will also feature nine retail units, with plans for convenient additions such as F&B outlets and convenience stores for residents and visitors.
2. More than 40 resort-style facilities bring the holiday experience closer to home
The Mediterranean-inspired development features over three acres of recreational facilities.
These include Aegan's fall cascading pools, Blue Cove adventure cavern, water play areas, active recreation zones, landscaped spaces, a multipurpose hall, pickleball courts, games room, karaoke room, BBQ lounge, and gymnasium.
The facilities are designed for more than just family getaways.
The spacious Riviera Lawn can accommodate corporate functions, team-building activities and outdoor celebrations, while The Point Horizon Terrace offers another dedicated setting for events and gatherings.
So whether you're planning a family holiday, company retreat, or even a wedding celebration, there are spaces to suit the occasion.
And if your perfect weekend involves having no plans at all, there's always the beach, pools and laid-back resort atmosphere to enjoy.
3. The units come fully furnished, with layouts for couples, families and group stays
OSK Ombak will comprise 1,274 residences across three serviced apartment towers, alongside a selection of retail units.
The units range from 450 sq ft to 1,026 sq ft, with one- to three-bedroom layouts available.
Selected units also feature dual-key configurations, allowing separate sections of the residence to be used independently. This provides more flexibility for owners travelling with extended family, accommodating guests or planning different uses for the space.
As the residences come fully furnished, owners will not have to start from an empty unit before using the home.
Selected OSK Ombak units feature private balconies with Jacuzzis overlooking a view of the sea.
The development has also received provisional GreenRE Silver certification and incorporates energy-efficient systems, water-saving features, and environmentally responsible materials.
4. Owners can appoint professional operators to manage short stays when the home is not in use
For those who do not expect to occupy their unit throughout the year, third-party professional short-stay management services are available.
This gives owners a practical way to manage the home when they are not using it, while keeping it available for their own coastal getaways.
It's also worth noting that this does not guarantee rental income or investment returns. It simply means professional support is available for owners who choose to offer their unit for short stays.
5. Kuantan looks ready to experience incredible growth
Looking ahead, Kuantan is set to become more accessible as connectivity and economic activity continue to improve.
The East Coast Rail Link (ECRL), currently targeted to begin operations in January 2027, is expected to shorten travel between the East Coast and the Klang Valley.
Once operational, the journey between Kuala Lumpur and Kuantan could take around 90 minutes, making spontaneous beach escapes and weekend trips much easier to plan.
Malaysia's different weekend schedules may also create a broader travel window, with some states observing Friday and Saturday weekends while others take Saturday and Sunday off.
Beyond tourism, continued development around Kuantan Port, Gebeng and the Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park is expected to attract further business activity, investment and visitors to the area.
