01
Location & connectivity
A waterfront address connected to Johor Bahru’s cross-border gateway
New Casa Suites forms part of the R&F Princess Cove integrated waterfront precinct at Tanjung Puteri. Published project information places it approximately 650 metres from JB CIQ via a sheltered pedestrian link, commonly described as an 8–10 minute walk. Actual walking time will depend on the selected tower, lobby, access point and operating route.
The precinct is also positioned near JB Sentral and the Bukit Chagar RTS Link corridor. For buyers who travel between Johor Bahru and Singapore, the practical value is the ability to compare a pedestrian-led daily journey with car-dependent alternatives. The completed entrance-to-entrance route, access hours and interchange experience should still be verified personally.

Selected residences are presented with views towards the Straits of Johor or the Singapore skyline, while the Urban Sky Sports Park adds pool, fitness, indoor-sport and family spaces.
