Every residential unit is described as a three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout across four plan types.
Introduction to Tuan Straits
Tuan Straits is a serviced apartment development in Desa Petaling, Kuala Lumpur, developed by EC Vantage Sdn Bhd under the CPI Land group.
The development is located off Jalan 11 in Kampung Baru Salak Selatan, within Mukim Petaling in the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur. The sources reviewed describe the surrounding area in two ways — some place the project in Desa Petaling and others in Salak Selatan — and both descriptions appear in the materials. The wider neighbourhood is described as sitting alongside Kuchai Lama, Taman Desa, Sri Petaling and Bandar Seri Permaisuri.
All residential units carry a built-up of 840 sq ft, and every unit is described as a three-bedroom, two-bathroom layout. The materials reviewed list four plan types: Type A, Type A/G, Type B and Type B/G.
The developer’s official project materials describe an architectural theme drawn from Straits and Peranakan design, using elements such as louvre shutters, breeze blocks, verandah expressions and shopfront-inspired façades, which the materials describe as serving both a visual and a climate-responsive function for ventilation and shading. Units are described as having flexible internal layouts with hackable walls, allowing bedrooms to be combined or the kitchen to be extended into the yard. Unit orientations are listed as south-east, south-west, north-east and north-west. Selected Type A/G and Type B/G units on Level 8 are described as having direct access to the green lawn from the balcony.
Shared facilities are described across the ground floor and Level 8 and 8M, and the project website states that the development provides more than 50 facility types. These include swimming and water features, fitness and wellness rooms, landscaped and outdoor areas, and social and community rooms, alongside a wetland landscape and Peranakan-themed features at the arrival and facility levels.

The project website also refers to access to five major highways without naming all five. Please confirm the full list directly with the developer.

Tuan Straits is officially classified as a serviced apartment.
The materials reviewed describe the development as a strata residential development of two towers over a shared podium, with car parking from the ground floor to Level 7 and residential floors above the facility level. The materials reviewed state that the land title is commercial while the development type is residential.
Some third-party sources describe the development as a condominium or a service residence, while the developer’s own materials describe it as a serviced apartment. Both descriptions appear in the sources reviewed.
Because the materials reviewed state that the project carries a commercial title, and a commercial title is a different title category from a residential title, please confirm the title category and what it means for your own circumstances directly with the developer before relying on it.
