Costavilla (GPS: 5.45647, 100.30516) is a 10-storey condominium block along Jalan Gajah in Tanjong Tokong, Penang. It has a total of 52 units on freehold land. The 3 bedroom 2 bathroom units at Costavilla ranges from 893 to 1,044 sqft.
My opinion of Costa Villa
Costa Villa should appeal to those who want a property that is of moderate size in a low-density development. Its location in Tanjong Tokong means it is near to various amenities including shopping at Lotus and Sam's Groceria, nearby international schools including Dalat and POWIIS, and shopping malls including Straits Quay, Island Plaza and Gurney Plaza. Bear in mind that this is one of the older properties in the neighbourhood and facilities are therefore also older.

Traffic along the main road, Jalan Tanjong Tokong, is heavy. There are several traffic lights along the route that force motorists to swerve dangerously to the left, a horrible showcase of poor road planning.
