412 Esplanade enjoys dual street frontage including a large footprint stretching from the Esplanade through to Freshwater.

It currently hosts 28 lettable rooms - some with air conditioning, BBQ area with swimming pool and spa, games room, kiosk & office reception, media & library room, communal kitchen and laundry facilities.
