Arena Property has been given the green light to proceed with its new Main Beach apartment tower, Belle Vie.

The 28-level tower, on an amalgamated 1,010 sqm on Pacific Street, one row back from Main Beach parade, will comprise 72 apartments. It will replace an original walk-up unit block.

Bella Vie—a French term that translates to beautiful life—is Arena’s most ambitious project to date and represents a significant shift from their previous low-rise luxury offerings, including their recently completed Lana Bilinga development.

Designed by Plus Architecture, Belle Vie features two distinct vertical sections, elegantly separated by a full-floor amenities level on Level 18. This central amenity floor will offer residents a curated collection of luxury lifestyle spaces, including a residents’ lounge, games room, wine cellar, library, private dining space, and a sunset-viewing outdoor dining terrace. 

 

It will also house a dedicated co-working zone with a boardroom, and a wellness hub complete with a 91 sqm gym, Pilates studio, sunrise yoga deck, and functional training room.

Levels 5 to 17 will host 56 two-bedroom residences, each boasting a study or multi-purpose room. 

Above the amenities level, Levels 19 to 27 are reserved for 14 expansive half-floor, three-bedroom apartments, further enhancing Bella Vie’s appeal to the owner-occupier market. 

Crowning the tower are two ultra-luxurious penthouses spanning three levels, each featuring four bedrooms, a home office, and a private 120 sqm-plus rooftop with a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, and lawn area.

Complementing the vertical lifestyle offering is a resort-style podium-level amenity deck, which will include a swimming pool with spa and wet deck, hot and cold plunges, and a rejuvenating sauna. 

The three-level podium and basement structure will provide parking for 100 vehicles.
