The Capital of Style
Beirut is Europe’s rendezvous with the Arab world. One of the most diverse cities of the Middle East, Beirut is also the capital, largest city and chief seaport of Lebanon. Known as the Paris of the Middle East, Beirut is the commercial centre of the region and has something for everyone. It’s filled with vibrancy and charm by night, as the city never sleeps.

La Residence by Ivana Trump is located in Soldiere, downtown Beirut, which is the most premium residential address in town. An all new ultra-urban neighbourhood. A stroll away from Phoenica. A jog away from Place de L’etoile, Trottoir Cafes, the Corniche and show-clad mountains, a high-way away. The heady life in Downtown Beirut is punctuated with the exotic Med life, a drive away.

Picturesquely set close to the coast and the snow peaked mountains, this exhilarating lifestyle is complete with an array of water sports, beaches, resort complexes, snow parks and all the action residents desire.
