Hi everyone! I already posted this in the moving to HK forum because I hadn't seen this one!!
I know some people have asked for advice about living in Tung Chung in the past but since there aren't any "recent" threads, I thought I would start a new one as things change very quickly in HK!!
I'm considering moving to Tung Chung and I've already visited a few flats which I liked but I have some questions which the estate agents can't really answer and I wasn't able to see for myself (agents don't have access to the clubhouses).
I'm looking at Tung Chung Crescent, Seaview Crescent, Coastal Skyline and Caribbean Coast.
Here are the questions I have:
- What are the clubhouses like? Specifically: how many pools are there and are they open all year round? Is the equipment in the gym of good standard? How crowded do the facilities get?
- How noisy is it living there? Do you hear planes, boats? Are the walls between the flats thick or can you hear everything your neighbours say/do?
- How convenient is it to shop for groceries? I know that there is a Taste in Citygate and I think there are also some shops under Caribbean Coast but I haven't seen them yet! What is the variety of products like? Can you find a good mix of Asian and Western food products?
- For Carib.Coast, how reliable and frequent is the shuttle bus to the MTR? I will be travelling outside of peak times so will I still be able to use the shuttle? If I were to walk to the MTR how long would it take if I walked at a relatively slow pace?
Any other comments you want to share are greatly appreciated! Thanks...
