Bandar Tropicana Aman is a new township developed by Tropicana Aman Sdn Bhd, a property branch of Tropicana Corporation Berhad. The integrated township is situated conveniently in the heart of Shah Alam, just beside Kota Kemuning.

The township is spread across a vast land comprising 863 acres, with another 198 acres of commercial space. Synonymous with Tropicana’s expertise of developing resort-style living, Tropicana Aman is built around a plethora of greenery with an abundance of tranquil elements.

There will be multiple parks attributed to nature equipped with jogging tracks to instil a healthy living environment.

Accessibility to the township is made possible through a variety of routes. Two prominent highways connecting Tropicana Aman to Shah Alam, Petaling Jaya and KL are namely LKSA (Kemuning-Shah Alam Expressway) and KESAS (Konsortium Expressway Shah Alam Selangor). Other routes such as South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE), Expressway Lingkaran Tengah (ELITE) all serve as connecting points. The newly proposed West Coast Expressway (WCE) aims to directly link Tropicana Aman to Banting and to Perak.

The upcoming Tenby International School opening its doors in 2018 is a proud development aiming to house 1,800 students, spread across 10 acres of land.

Residents need not worry about medical facilities too as the nearby Columbia Asia Hospital located in Bukit Rimau is only 10 minutes away.

In terms of shopping, residents of the township are able to patronize Gamuda Walk and One City just 20 minutes away from Tropicana Aman.

There are a variety of food choices to select from in Tropicana Aman. The neighbouring suburb of Kota Kemuning offers a variety of choices ranging from Chinese to Western and also from Malay to Thai. You name it, they have it. Modern cafes and aromatic Chinese restaurants are spread throughout the township.

Unfortunately there is currently no show unit yet for Dalia Residences as they are still building it. But take a drive to its property gallery. The salesman will show you Cheria Residences which is similar to Dalia’s Semi-D.

One of the selling points of Dalia Residences is its collaboration with Panasonic Home & Living. Each home will come built-in with such security featuring wireless network of devices allowing you to monitor your home while you are away. It can be connected to up to 4 mobile devices.
