Located at the hill-foot of Shouson Hill, on the south of the Hong Kong Island right next to the Repulse Bay, the neighbourhood of Deep Water Bay is a small exclusive one, with large houses facing the water or the Deep Water Bay Golf Course. Accommodations are predominantly townhouses and large detached houses with private gardens. There are also a few high-rise apartments with facilities.

Offering accommodations with combination of sizes, styles and views, this quiet gated community is linked to the north side of the Island by the Aberdeen Tunnel and the Repulse Bay Road. Several bus routes serve as alternatives to travel to other parts of the city. Supermarket, provision stores and other amenities are only a short trip away. The tantalizing Deep Water Bay Beach lies just around the corner.

Multi-national schools are abundant around the area. Located on South Bay Road is the Hong Kong International School; on Nam Fung Road is the South Island School. The Singapore and the Canadian International Schools are on Nam Long Shan Road nearby.
