The above is a quick comparison between WF Towers and The Astaka.
The Astaka seems to have an edge over WF Towers as it has a dedicated tunnel from CIQ in additional to phase 2 and 3 with commercial development. Driving from Singapore The Astaka has a definite advantage over WF Towers, however both condominiums have shuttle bus to RTS/CIQ so there's equal convenience if commuting via public transport.
The outlook and the unit number is quite similar with both glass facade and equal brands (What a coincidence!) for appliances and bathroom fittings. Both have marble flooring and timber bedroom floors. On a personal note, I love balconies! WF Tower has no balconies! One man's poison is another man's meat.
Another downside of WF Towers is that it is surrounded by 3 other projects:
1. Twin Galaxy Residences by Golden Oriental
2. Sky 88 by Setia
3. The Pinnacle by Mahabuilders
The above might affects the view (Further studies required, agents please enlighten me.) However it is certain that only the South facing units will have sea view. Where as The Astaka has sea view for all units.
WF has much higher PSF than The Astaka: RM1,400 vs RM1,000. However WF Towers has smaller 2/3 bedrooms to offer. However a mid size unit at WF Towers could very well purchase a large unit at The Astaka with good sea view.
The Astaka seems to look better as we explore further, so much so it seems unfair. I tried to be objective but on the other hand we represent The Astaka so our perspective may be already skewed.
Let us each assess the projects with our own sets of criteria and decide what's best for us.
