Location
The site is on Persisiran Pantai Tanjung Lumpur, on the Tanjung Lumpur beachfront, with the town centre reached via the river bridge. Tanjung Lumpur's beach and seafood village are at the doorstep. Teluk Cempedak, the best-known tourist beach in Kuantan, and Kuantan City Mall / East Coast Mall are each about 10 minutes away. KPJ Pahang Specialist Hospital is nearby. Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Airport is about 18 km away, and the future ECRL station at Kota SAS about 16 km. Kuala Lumpur is roughly 250 km, or 3 to 3.5 hours, via the East Coast Expressway.
Pros & cons
What's good
- Direct access to the beach from the Tanjung Lumpur shoreline
- 18 facilities, including a level-6 infinity pool and sky garden
- Three-bedroom layouts of 850 and 1,012 sqft
- Seaside Plaza F&B and retail on the ground floor
- 456 units, fewer than most EXSIM projects listed on Hauzpedia
What to weigh up
- Leasehold, 99 years to 2123
- Completion targeted for March 2029: no use or income before then
- Short-stay demand is seasonal; the monsoon runs roughly November to February
- Maintenance fee not stated in the materials we reviewed
- Serviced apartment title: utility tariffs and loan terms may not match a residential condo
Rental outlook
Kuantan has two sources of tenants. Beach tourism at Teluk Cempedak and Tanjung Lumpur supports short-stay demand. Kuantan Port, the Gebeng industrial zone and oil-and-gas work bring in employees and business visitors. From about November to February the East Coast monsoon means more rain and rough seas, so short-stay income rises and falls with the season.
We have not seen reliable rent data for new serviced apartments in Tanjung Lumpur, so we do not quote a yield. Ask for local comparables, and check the building's rules on short-stay letting, before you buy.
Who should buy
- Buy if you want a beachfront home or holiday base on the East Coast with resort facilities.
- Buy Type B or Type C if you need three bedrooms for own stay. Qubaz and The Bedrock, two other EXSIM coastal projects, top out below 800 sqft.
- Consider Qubaz in Kuala Terengganu if you want a lower ticket price (from RM388,000) and a managed short-stay unit.
- Wait if you need rental income soon, or if freehold title matters to you.

Sea Crestz review FAQ
Is Sea Crestz a good investment?
It depends on your plan. Direct beach access, resort facilities and three-bedroom layouts support own-stay and holiday-home use. As a rental, income is likely to be seasonal, and the 99-year leasehold and 2029 completion should be priced in.
Who is the developer of Sea Crestz?
Kuantan Waterfront Resort City Sdn Bhd, a member of EXSIM Group.
Is Sea Crestz really beachfront?
Yes. The site is on the Tanjung Lumpur shoreline with direct beach access, inside Kuantan Waterfront Resort City. Only select units face the sea directly.
Is Sea Crestz or Qubaz better?
Sea Crestz suits buyers who want more space, up to 1,012 sqft with three bedrooms. Qubaz suits buyers who want a lower entry price and a managed short-stay unit in Kuala Terengganu.
