Unveiled in September 2018, the 1,530-acre township of Gamuda Cove is Gamuda Land’s development in Southern Klang Valley. Just like the other projects by Gamuda Land, Gamuda Cove is mindfully master-planned, and designed amidst tropical-inspired landscapes.
The township features lush greeneries with a 60-acre Central Park with 3 lakes, and an entertainment hub called Discovery Park, which is located across the Gamuda Cove Experience Gallery. The 23-acre Discovery Park will host several unique attractions and experiential activities. They include the Rainbow City, inspired by Taiwan’s Rainbow Village with a Malaysian twist, the first in South East Asia Cove Aerobar, ArcHIVE food hall, and the first in Malaysia Barsa Pool Club with Malaysia’s largest saltwater pool. There will be more to come.
A water theme park and a flyover connecting to Cyberjaya are also in the pipeline. It will be the nearest water theme park to KLIA upon its opening in 2022, and is expected to draw more international and local tourists to Gamuda Cove.
Inspired by the Paya Indah Wetlands and the 7,600-acre Kuala Langat Forest Reserve that are close by, Gamuda Cove is planned as a “nature sanctuary, smart city” which is in line with Gamuda Land’s intent to build with respect to nature.
The central theme at Gamuda Cove is water. This is in the form of lakes with wetland fringes, surrounded by indigenous woodland within areas of open waterside meadows. The plants in these wetland and forest environments will grow and mature to support the flora and fauna that will enhance the biodiversity within Gamuda Cove.
Gamuda Cove is also a self-sustainable township and commercial development with green transportation. Smart elements such as high-speed telecommunications, smart parking feature using gadget to identify parking spaces, and smart security systems, create a safe haven for its residents. The development is also planned with a tram system, connecting the key nodes of the commercial zones.
Gamuda Cove is set to be Malaysia’ Maxis-enabled 5G township, where homes and public spaces will be equipped with smart features and advanced technologies. In February 2020, Gamuda made its way into the Malaysian Book of Records with the country’s tallest Cherry Blossom Tree Replica installed in the township.
The township has acquired a Malaysia Green Building Index (GBI) gold rating (provisional) for its Core Business District Planning Assessment. The entire township will comprise more than 20,000 residential units upon its expected completion in 2038.
The first landed homes and serviced apartments in Gamuda Cove are Palma Sands, launched in January 2019, and Maya Bay Residences, launched in November 2019. Units at Maya Bay Residences come with smart home features. The leasehold serviced apartments is estimated to be completed in 2021. Here are its key features:
- Walking distance to Discovery Park and Water Theme Park
- 3-tier Security
- Resort lifestyle living
- Smart living and eco-friendly
- Seamless commute experience with bikes, shuttle buses, trams and car-sharing services
- Close proximity to KLIA and KLIA2

Location
Located near KL International Airport (KLIA) and Cyberjaya, Maya Bay Residences is easily accessible via North-South Expressway Central Link (ELITE Expressway), South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE), Maju Expressway (MEX), Damansara Puchong Expressway (LDP), Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS), North-South Expressway (PLUS), Putrajaya-Cyberjaya Expressway, and West Coast Expressway. It is also near public transportation such as the Putrajaya Sentral Station.
The developer constructed an interchange from the ELITE Expressway into the township to enhance accessibility. With an investment of RM150 million, the opening of the interchange at KM26.70 will provide direct access from North-South Expressway Central Link (ELITE) Highway into Gamuda Cove. The interchange directly leads into the 372-acre commercial business district (CBD) where the new Gamuda Cove Experience Gallery is currently located.
The Gamuda Cove Interchange is equipped with a 12-lane toll plaza, washrooms, prayers room, and parking bays. It also has flyovers to Cyberjaya, Putrajaya, and Dengkil. Stretching approximately 1.6km (South bound) and 1.1km (North bound) respectively, the Gamuda Cove Interchange is the first and main access into Gamuda Cove township and will be the key access point for its future phases. 2 additional proposed linkages will connect Gamuda Cove and Cyberjaya via Persiaran Cove Selatan. It is estimated that 1.8 million people (Gamuda Cove residents and visitors) of Discovery Park and Discovery Wetlands and its surrounding community will benefit from the opening of Gamuda Cove Interchange.
The township is also big on green transportation, as it has shuttle buses that connects Gamuda Cove to surrounding amenities, integrated pedestrian walkways, dedicated cycling paths, a smart traffic system, an environmentally friendly Electric Transit Vehicle infrastructure, and a tramway network that will be first implemented in Gamuda Cove’s CBD. The tram’s first phase will be approximately 4km on the main street of the business district and it will eventually connect the entire township.
