  • Phase 2 opened to the public in 2018 featuring the new Laguna Waterpark and Roxy cinemas.

La Mer offers over a hundred shops, restaurants and cafes, a waterpark, a trampoline park, a skateboard park and a cinema.

    You can go during the day and swim too since it has an open beach.
    S: if you are planning to see all of it, prepare yourself for some serious walking and comfortable shoes.”
