16 Years of Summarecon Bekasi, Transforming into a Metropolitan City
JAKARTA - Entering its 16th year, Summarecon Bekasi is increasingly affirming its transformation as an integrated metropolitan area that is rapidly developing in the East Jakarta area. No longer just a development project, Summarecon Bekasi has grown into a residential and lifestyle destination of choice for the people of Bekasi and its surroundings, supported by comprehensive city planning and integrated modern infrastructure.
The momentum of growth was marked by the opening of Summarecon Mall Bekasi Phase 2 (SMB 2) in early February 2026 as a continuation of the development of SMB Phase 1. This expansion further strengthens the position of Summarecon Mall Bekasi as an icon of shopping and lifestyle center by presenting a variety of international and local brands from premium fashion, lifestyle, sport & wellness categories to daily needs.
SMB 2's advantage lies in the integration of the shopping center with the Sports & Wellness Center WELLGROUND (Wellness Ground) facility located on the rooftop. Carrying the tagline "Ground for Active Living", Wellground is built on an area of 17,587 m² with an integrated space concept that accommodates social life, fitness, health, and performance. Premium facilities available include NXT FIT Gym, JUVIA Wellness & Spa, Badminton courts, Basketball, Padel, Tennis, Pickleball, Olympic-size Infinity Pool, Kids Pool, Leisure Pool, Hydropool, Jogging Track, and F&B areas such as After Match and MARKT.
Summarecon Bekasi Executive Director, Magdalena Juliati, said that from the beginning, the main focus of Summarecon Bekasi's development was to create a complete life in one area.
"We are not only building residences, but also forming an ecosystem. The commercial facilities provided are now increasingly oriented towards the development of experience and lifestyle such as the opening of SMB 2 which is our commitment in creating a more metropolitan Summarecon Bekasi. In addition to malls, various facilities are also available ranging from various facilities for culinary tenants in shops to La Spezia in the Bekasi Central Business District (BCBD), elementary and secondary schools to universities, hospitals, offices, various commercial facilities such as car dealers to beauty clinics, as well as housing options such as apartments, modern stilt houses, to ultra-luxury housing. All of them are designed to provide the best quality of life in an integrated area," he explained, some time ago.
The development of Summarecon Bekasi as an integrated city that transforms the northern area of Bekasi City into a modern metropolitan residential and commercial area, is reflected through the success of presenting thousands of land units in dozens of clusters as well as more than 4,800 residential units in 4 apartment towers. Public confidence in Summarecon Bekasi products is also supported by Summarecon's reputation and track record for five decades in presenting quality integrated areas. This commitment has become the foundation for the growth of Summarecon Bekasi over the past 16 years, as well as strengthening its position as a high-value residential area with continuously developing facilities.
The launch of Soultan Island as a premium cluster titled Ultra-Luxury Living in Nature's Embrace is a commitment to presenting quality residences that are specifically designed to meet the demand for large homes with the highest quality in Summarecon Bekasi. This superpremium cluster is designed for individuals who prioritize high tranquility and privacy, presenting the highest standard of living in the midst of a green landscape and natural lake with a magnificent world-class architecture.
Designed by international architect Thomas B. Elliot with the philosophy of "architecture as a legacy," Soultan Island blends aesthetics, functionality, and sustainable design values across generations, representing a harmony between luxury and comfort.
Strategically located in the heart of Summarecon Bekasi, about 5 minutes from the Jakarta-Cikampek and Becakayu toll roads, Bekasi Barat LRT Station, and Bekasi KRL Station, this area is integrated with shopping centers, CBD, educational institutions, and modern health facilities, thus strengthening its position as a prestigious residence with high investment value.
In the future, Summarecon Bekasi will continue to present adaptive future residences that are integrated with the rhythm of the city, allowing work, shopping, exercise, and socializing activities to take place efficiently in one integrated area.
