John Keells Properties has announced that in order to accommodate prospective buyers moving forward with their apartment searches, it is using virtual reality technology to provide virtual tours of show units for its two upcoming residential developments, Cinnamon Life and TRI-ZEN.

With respect to the government’s stay-at-home directive in order to stop the spread of COVID-19, the country’s leading property developer is using Matterport technology to responsibly and safely provide a complete virtual walk-through of specifically the Cinnamon Life two bedroomed and the TRI-ZEN dual-key (combination of a one and two bedroomed unit) apartments; an entirely new concept to apartment living in Sri Lanka. Potential homeowners can now make informed decisions about their future residence at their leisure, and from the comfort and safety of their own homes.

Accessible via laptop, tablet, or smartphone, interested buyers are not just afforded a realistic view of the overall layout and proportions of each model apartment, but will also be privy to the more intricate details of the space. Furthermore, those with virtual reality gear will be able to take the already extensive experience a step further with the additional suite of immersive VR features offered by the platform. 

“John Keells Properties has always set the bar when it comes to adopting technological advancements to better engage with our customers. We have been using Matterport VR technology to promote our projects to potential overseas customers as well,” said Nadeem Shums, Head of Sales at John Keells Properties. “Incorporating virtual tours of units from our upcoming projects as part of our existing offering helps us navigate this new normal alongside our customers, while simultaneously maintaining public health as our topmost priority during these critical times.”



The Group’s flagship project Cinnamon Life is envisioned to be the heartbeat of the city whilst making its mark as Colombo's lifestyle capital. The development will comprise of an 800 roomed 5-star hotel, state-of-the-art shopping mall, a convention centre, office spaces, multi-purpose entertainment venues, restaurants as well as premium residential apartments – all of which will offer the very essence of exclusivity and luxury. 

The 53-storey TRI-ZEN development is highly sought-after for its central Colombo 02 location and ultra-modern one, two, and three-bedroomed ‘smart-home’ apartments - each equipped with a suite of key facilities and conveniences like no other. The newest John Keells Properties project is that perfect urban home that comes with both, a luxury lifestyle as well as an affordable price tag.
