Marina Residence 2
Marina Residence 2 is the second phase of the Clear Water Bay development at Teluk Air Tawar, north of Butterworth, by ACME Holdings through its subsidiary Welcome Properties. It is freehold, on a residential title, and completion is expected between Q4 2027 and Q1 2028.
The phase adds three blocks — D, E and F — holding 202 units on a site that runs to 11 acres across both phases. The land is sea-facing, and the blocks are set out so the promenade and the water sit in front of them rather than behind.
Every unit is a three-bedroom, in six sizes from 1,205 to 1,593 sq ft. The two largest layouts carry a third bathroom. Ceilings are 10 ft, each unit gets two to three side-by-side car park bays, and three lifts serve each block.
Facilities run to an infinity lap pool, a podium swimming pool, a private clubhouse with a sea-facing gymnasium, and a tree-lined promenade along the seafront. Maintenance is RM0.25 psf plus a 10% sinking fund, which is low for a development of this kind.
Quick answer: Marina Residence 2 is a freehold high rise condominium development by ACME Holdings in Butterworth, Penang. It offers 202 units, with 3 bedroom layouts, from 1,205 to 1,593 sq ft, with completion targeted for Q4 2027 to Q1 2028.
Development at a Glance
Everything below comes from the developer’s own material. These are the figures that are fixed at construction — renovation changes none of them, so they are worth checking before anything else.
- Developer — ACME Holdings
- Property type — High Rise Condominium
- Tenure — Freehold
- Land title — Residential
- Land area — 11 acres across Phase 1 and Phase 2
- Blocks — 3 blocks — D, E and F
- Total units — 202
- Lifts — 3
- Car parking — 2 to 3 side-by-side bays per unit
- Security — 3 tiers — guardhouse, lift lobby and lift access
- Architect — 10 ft ceiling height. Reinforced concrete structure, SPC composite vinyl plank flooring to living areas and bedrooms
- Completion — Q4 2027 to Q1 2028
What the numbers actually say
202 homes on 11 acres across Phase 1 and Phase 2 is about 18 units per acre. That is low by high-rise standards, which usually shows up as more open ground and fewer people sharing the lift lobby.
Lift provisioning is the number people notice daily and can never change afterwards: with 3 in each of the 3 blocks. That works out to roughly 22 homes per passenger lift, which is generous provisioning.
Car parking is 2 to 3 side-by-side bays per unit. In a completed development this is one of the few things you cannot renegotiate afterwards, so check it against how many cars you actually run.
Completion is stated as Q4 2027 to Q1 2028. Ask to see that date on the statutory panel rather than in the brochure headline, and hold the developer to the panel version.

The developer numbers its layouts by block and unit position rather than by type letter, so the letters used here are ours — each row names the exact block and unit numbers it refers to, and those are the numbers to quote at the sales gallery. Every unit in the development is a three-bedroom; what changes across the six sizes is the floor area, from 1,205 to 1,593 sq ft, and whether you get a second or a third bathroom. The two largest layouts, at 1,582 and 1,593 sq ft, carry three bathrooms. There is no studio and no two-bedroom here — this is a development built entirely for families.

Location & Connectivity
Marina Residence 2 sits on Jalan Tingkat Laksamana 8 in Taman Teluk Molek, Teluk Air Tawar, on the Clear Water Bay stretch of coast north of Butterworth. The site fronts the sea directly, which is the whole point of it — the towers are arranged so the units face water rather than each other.
This is Seberang Perai Utara, the northern district of the Penang mainland. Butterworth town and Penang Sentral, with the ferry terminal and the northern rail line, are south along the coast road; the Butterworth-Kulim Expressway runs east toward Kulim; and Penang Bridge connects to the island. The immediate surroundings are established residential — parks, schools and existing housing rather than new development on empty land.

Is Marina Residence 2 Right For You?
Why Buy at Marina Residence 2
It actually fronts the sea. Not a sea glimpse from the upper floors — the site is on the Clear Water Bay coast with a promenade between the blocks and the water. On the Penang mainland that is rare, and it cannot be built out from in front of you.
Freehold, on a residential title. Most new high-rise stock in this bracket is commercial title. Residential title means residential assessment rates and residential utility tariffs for as long as you hold it.
Every unit is a three-bedroom, from 1,205 sq ft up. There is no investor stock here — no studios, no compact two-bedrooms. That shapes who your neighbours are, and it shapes the resale pool.
Two to three car parks, side by side. For a household with two cars and a visitor, that is the difference between workable and not.
RM0.25 psf is genuinely low. For a 1,205 sq ft unit that is a little over RM300 a month before the sinking fund, on a development with a clubhouse, two pools and a seafront promenade to maintain.
Why Marina Residence 2 May Not Suit You
Completion is Q4 2027 at the earliest and the SPA runs 48 months. You are buying off plan with a long build ahead, and the on-site showroom was taken down in 2024 to make way for construction, so there is less to walk through than there was.
Nothing under 1,205 sq ft. If you want a smaller unit — for one person, a couple, or a first purchase — this development has no answer for you. The entry point is a three-bedroom family unit.
Three lifts per block. Reasonable for the unit count, but there is no redundancy: one lift out of service means a third of the capacity gone.
Teluk Air Tawar is quiet, and that cuts both ways. The everyday shops and schools are local rather than regional; Butterworth town, Penang Sentral and the malls at Seberang Jaya are all a drive. You will want a car for most things.
Coastal exposure is a maintenance reality. Sea air is hard on metalwork, fittings and external finishes. Ask what the specification says about corrosion protection, and expect the sinking fund to be working harder here than it would inland.
