Stunning Penthouse at Bay Tower, Minet El Hosn

Some homes just have an atmosphere that catches you as soon as you walk in. This penthouse at Bay Tower in Minet El Hosn is like that. There is a sort of quiet when you first step through the door that just makes you pause. I actually stopped for a second in the foyer and watched the light drift in. You get this full sea view that never really goes away as you move through the space. I think the views here help you slow down and enjoy all that Beirut has to offer, right from your own apartment.

This is a true penthouse. You have four bedrooms, all with those big windows that let the sunlight slide across the floor in the mornings. Two of the main rooms actually face straight out to the sea. You wake up and it feels like your own private piece of the Mediterranean. The other two bedrooms look over downtown. At night, you can see the lights and sometimes little pieces of city life moving along, and honestly, it just makes you feel connected to everything.

There are a couple of living spaces to settle into. I stood for a while by the window in the main living room, and you can see the Marina and all the boats and sometimes even a bird or two gliding past. It is a good place to just sit with a coffee and unplug from everything for a bit. There is a proper dining area right next to it, so you do not have to be far from the city views while you eat. I noticed how you get a sense of privacy even with all that glass and openness.

The kitchen in this penthouse is actually a place for real cooking. You do not just get appliances for show. Everything is built in and ready. I know some kitchens look good but you never really want to use them. This one feels comfortable, like somewhere you could bake bread on a Sunday or cook breakfast for everyone. Plus, there is also a spot where you can just lean in the morning sun with that first cup of tea.

You will find all the practical things tucked away as well. There is a maid room with its own spot and even space for laundry, so you do not have awkward chores in the middle of everything. Storage is sorted in the basement, which just keeps things uncluttered upstairs. And you get three proper parking spots underground. It matters more than people think, especially in the city.

Bay Tower itself has a feeling of community. There is a calm outdoor swimming pool where I could imagine swimming in the morning or just reading a book in the afternoons. Maybe you meet neighbours, or maybe you just keep to yourself. The gym is fully kitted out, not just a couple of machines in a forgotten corner. Security and the concierge are always there, but not in your face, so there is always this background sense that you are looked after.

Outside, Minet El Hosn is the kind of place where you can walk to everything. The waterfront promenade is basically at your front door. The coffee shop is never far. I saw families out walking, runners in the morning, and sometimes kids on bikes as the sun goes down. Downtown Beirut is right next to you too. Old and new parts of the city blend together, so you are never stuck for places to go or food to eat.

Honestly, this penthouse at Bay Tower just feels finished in a way a lot of places never do. You get real space for living, space for family, and always the sea to remind you to slow down. The only way to know if it feels right for you is to come see it in person. If you want to have a look or just have some questions, get in touch any time.
