Master Plan - Mentawai

Ki Communities is a luxury surf-village in the Mentawai Islands — designed as a remote haven where world-class waves, wellbeing, and curated community define every day. BLUECHIP is leading the vision from masterplanning through architectural concept, aligning luxury hospitality with light-touch environmental stewardship.

The Concept

Ki Communities is a luxury surf retreat set within the world-renowned Mentawai Islands — a destination where uncompromising comfort meets the planet’s most sought-after waves. 


BLUECHIP leads the project through a full end-to-end scope: masterplanning, architectural concept, procurement strategy and remote-site project management. Designed to attract discerning travellers and surf-lifestyle leaders, Ki Communities offers exclusive oceanfront living with sustainability embedded at every scale. Ki Communities is built for a new generation of ocean-first luxury travellers — global nomads and high-profile surf culture from LA to Mentawai — who prioritise experience, freedom, and wellbeing over traditional resort formality. 


Ki signifies vital life force — the energy flowing through waves, climate, people and culture. This energy forms the core narrative: 

  • Ki as nature — uninterrupted ocean frontage and private reef access 

  • Ki as wellbeing — restorative living elevated by immaculate design 

  • Ki as community — exclusivity through shared authenticity 

The resort is envisioned as a luxury lifestyle village, where the ocean’s power shapes each day and privacy is paired with meaningful social connection. 


“A destination for those who pursue perfect waves — and perfect days.”

Design Approach

Design Philosophy Elegant coastal living, elevated by local craftsmanship and smart sustainability. The architecture is refined yet warm — a tropical modern expression where luxury does not overpower nature. 


Key design principles: 

  • Ultra-prime positioning — every key oriented to surf, breeze and horizon 

  • Seamless indoor–outdoor living — infinity thresholds, shaded terraces 

  • Natural performance materials — timber, breathable façades, marine-resilient finishes 

  • Passive wellbeing — ventilation, daylight, shade and views designed in 

  • Curated privacy — quiet sanctuaries supported by active social hubs
