Pasir Ris has been waiting for this moment for more than a decade. Coastal Cabana, the newest Executive Condominium at Jalan Loyang Besar in District 17, launched on 17 January 2026 following its December 2025 VVIP preview — and it is, by any measure, the most anticipated EC launch the East has seen in years. Developed by the consortium of Qingjian Realty, Forsea Holdings, Orient Fostering, and ZACD, Coastal Cabana offers 748 seafront units steps from Pasir Ris Park, making it the only EC in Singapore with a genuine beachside address. For HDB upgraders in Pasir Ris, Tampines, and the broader East, this is the once-in-a-decade opportunity that property observers have been forecasting since the last EC in the area was launched.
What Is Coastal Cabana? EC Concept, Developer Background & Seafront Setting
Executive Condominiums occupy a unique niche in Singapore’s housing hierarchy. They are built to private condo standards — full condominium facilities, quality finishes, landscaped grounds — but are priced at a government-subsidised discount relative to comparable private condos, provided buyers meet eligibility criteria. After a 5-year Minimum Occupation Period (MOP), ECs can be sold to Singapore Citizens and PRs on the open market. After 10 years, they become fully privatised and can be sold to foreigners — at which point their market value typically converges with comparable private condos in the same area.
Coastal Cabana’s developer consortium brings serious credentials. Qingjian Realty is one of Singapore’s most active EC developers, with a track record spanning Le Quest, Bellewoods, Bellewaters, and Inz Residence. Their ECs are known for practical layouts, high-quality finishes, and strong post-MOP resale performance. Forsea Holdings, Orient Fostering, and ZACD add additional development and financial depth to the consortium.
The seafront setting is Coastal Cabana’s single most differentiated attribute. Jalan Loyang Besar sits adjacent to Pasir Ris Park — one of Singapore’s largest and most beloved coastal parks — and within easy reach of Pasir Ris Beach. For families who have spent years in HDB flats in the East, the prospect of waking up to sea breezes and park greenery at a price point that CPF can service is not a lifestyle upgrade — it is a transformation.
EC Eligibility Checklist — Can You Buy Coastal Cabana?
ECs come with eligibility rules that do not apply to private condominiums. Before you register for a showflat visit, confirm you satisfy all of the following criteria:
Basic Eligibility Criteria
- Citizenship: At least one buyer must be a Singapore Citizen. The co-applicant may be a Singapore Citizen or Singapore Permanent Resident. Foreigners and PRs purchasing alone are not eligible for new EC launches.
- Combined Household Income: The combined gross monthly household income of all applicants must not exceed $16,000/month. This ceiling was raised from $14,000 in September 2019 and has not changed since.
- Private Property Ownership: Applicants must not own any private residential property locally or overseas. If you currently own a private condo, you must dispose of it before applying.
- HDB Ownership and MOP: If you are a current HDB flat owner, you must have fulfilled the 5-year MOP before purchasing an EC. If you are a previous HDB flat owner who has already sold, standard rules apply.
- Previous EC / Subsidised Housing: Buyers who have previously purchased an EC or received a CPF Housing Grant are subject to a waiting period — check with Alvin for your specific eligibility profile.
- Family Nucleus: ECs require a valid family nucleus — couples (married or engaged), families with children, or orphaned siblings. Singles purchasing alone are not eligible.
Privatisation Timeline
Coastal Cabana has an expected TOP of 2029. The MOP clock starts from TOP date, meaning the 5-year MOP would end approximately in 2034. Full privatisation (10 years from TOP) would occur around 2039. Buyers entering now are making a medium-to-long-term commitment, and should model their exit strategy accordingly.

Coastal Cabana Pricing — Value vs Private Condo
Coastal Cabana’s indicative pricing starts from $1.44M for a 3-bedroom Deluxe unit at 872 sqft, translating to approximately $1,649 PSF. This represents a substantial discount to comparable private condos in the East, where units of similar size and specification typically command $1,800–$2,200 PSF or more.
| Unit Type | Size (Indicative) | Indicative Price | Indicative PSF |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-Bedroom Deluxe | 872 sqft | From ~$1.44M | ~$1,649 PSF |
| 3-Bedroom Premium | ~990–1,100 sqft | From ~$1.65M+ | ~$1,600–$1,700 PSF |
| 4-Bedroom | ~1,200–1,400 sqft | From ~$1.95M+ | ~$1,600–$1,700 PSF |
| 5-Bedroom / Penthouse | ~1,500+ sqft | From ~$2.4M+ | ~$1,600 PSF+ |
Prices are indicative and subject to availability. Contact Alvin Tan directly for the current price list and remaining unit selection.
CPF Usability and HDB Grant Eligibility
One of the EC’s most significant financial advantages over private condos is full CPF usability — buyers can use their CPF Ordinary Account (OA) savings to fund both the down payment and monthly mortgage instalments, significantly reducing the cash outlay required at launch. For a couple with combined CPF savings of $200,000–$300,000, the effective cash required at purchase can be meaningfully lower than for an equivalent private condo.
Eligible first-timer applicants may also qualify for the CPF Housing Grant of up to $30,000 for EC purchases, further improving affordability. Alvin Tan will assess your specific grant eligibility during the registration process.

Pasir Ris Location — East Coast Living at Its Best
Pasir Ris has quietly transformed over the past decade from a quiet residential town into one of the most liveable estates in Singapore’s East. Coastal Cabana residents will benefit from a location that offers both nature and urban convenience in equal measure.
Transport Connectivity
- Pasir Ris MRT (East-West Line) — approximately 1km from the development, connecting directly to Tampines, Paya Lebar, Kallang, City Hall, and Jurong East
- Loyang Avenue and TPE — quick expressway access to Changi Airport (under 10 minutes), the CBD, and the North-East
- Bus connectivity — multiple bus services along Pasir Ris Drive 3 and Pasir Ris Central connecting to Tampines Regional Centre
Parks, Recreation & Beach
- Pasir Ris Park — one of Singapore’s largest coastal parks, with a 6km coastline, mangrove boardwalk, bicycle paths, beach volleyball, and a water adventure park. Coastal Cabana is positioned at the park’s edge.
- Downtown East (D’Best and Wild Wild Wet) — the landmark leisure complex minutes away, offering water park, entertainment, and F&B
- Elias Mall and White Sands Shopping Centre — everyday retail and supermarkets within a short drive
Schools Within the Area
- Casuarina Primary School
- Pasir Ris Primary School
- Coral Primary School
- Dunman Secondary School
- Tampines Meridian Junior College (short drive)
Food & Community
Pasir Ris is well-served by hawker centres, including the popular Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre, along with NTUC FairPrice supermarkets, Cold Storage, and a growing number of F&B outlets along Pasir Ris Drive. The Tampines Regional Centre — one of Singapore’s three regional commercial hubs — is a short drive, providing substantial employment within the East without requiring CBD commutes.
VVIP Preview & Balloting — How to Secure the Best Units
Coastal Cabana held its VVIP preview in December 2025 and officially launched on 17 January 2026. Units are allocated through the standard HDB EC balloting process, which means early registration matters — not just for queue priority, but for access to the best stacks, views, and floor levels before they are taken.
Here is how to proceed for buyers who are registering now (post-launch):
- Register your interest with Alvin Tan immediately — WhatsApp below for direct response. Alvin will confirm your eligibility profile, check remaining unit availability, and book your showflat appointment at the earliest available slot.
- Prepare your eligibility documents — NRIC, HDB ownership status (if applicable), CPF statements, and the last 3 months’ payslips or income documents for TDSR assessment.
- Income Ceiling Verification — the combined household income ceiling is $16,000/month. Alvin will help you verify your gross income figure against the HDB definition to ensure you are correctly assessed.
- Issue of Option to Purchase (OTP) — once your unit is confirmed, the developer will issue an OTP. You will have 21 days to exercise the option and pay the exercise fee.
- CPF and bank financing — Alvin will connect you with mortgage specialists to structure your loan (EC buyers are subject to bank loan financing, not HDB loans) and maximise CPF usage.
As with all developer sales, buyers pay no agent commission. Alvin’s service is funded entirely by the developer. Your interests are protected, your eligibility is verified, and your paperwork is managed — at zero cost to you.
