Sri Lanka’s first tourist resort apartment complex
Construction of Bayfonte Marina Tourist Resort Apartments and Residencies, Home Lands Group’s iconic waterfront development in Negombo, is well on track driven by unprecedented demand and growth. Access Engineering PLC was chosen by Home Lands to carry out piling work of this mega project in conformity with the highest standards. High-quality piling work of this award winning project has been completed within a matter of two months by deploying no less than five state-of-the-art piling machines and equipment in order to expeditiously complete the all-important piling work one month ahead of time.
With piling complete, construction of this mega project is in full swing and well on track. Heyraa Construction Ltd., the highest CS2 graded construction company, fully owned by the Home Lands Group, will construct Negombo’s most iconic waterfront project to the highest standards.
Sri Lanka’s first tourist resort apartment and residencies complex, Bayfonte Marina was launched in 2025 by Home Lands as Negombo’s most iconic luxury waterfront development with the aim of constructing a truly world-class luxury lifestyle project in the strategically important city of Negombo. As Negombo transforms from a transit tourist destination to a fully-fledged top-class tourist destination combining historic significance with the vibrancy of a modern tourist city, Bayfonte Marina is expected to complement and catalyse Negombo’s growth in tourism and commerce with modern day world-class offerings and value for both residents and tourists alike by creating luxurious and practical living spaces with high end amenities, activities and managed services.
Bayfonte Marina gained international recognition recently at the PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards by winning the “Best Waterfront Condo Development – Sri Lanka 2025” Award and was placed among the best waterfront developments in Asia by becoming a finalist of the Best Waterfront Condo Development Asia 2025 Award.
Currently Bayfonte Marina is over 70% sold out in a matter of months since its launch, driven by global demand for Home Lands’ diverse range of mega projects. The Home Lands Group, Sri Lanka’s no. 1 and most trusted developer, has delivered over 3,400 residential units across multiple themed mega residential complexes and has over 2,500 units currently under construction across eight futuristic mega residential projects.
