Megaworld subsidiary Global-Estate Resorts, Inc. (GERI), a premier developer of integrated tourism and leisure townships, is turning over P11-billion worth of residential and commercial projects located in the provinces this year, highlighting the huge sustained demand in its developments outside Metro Manila.

The company is turning over residential units at The Lindgren and commercial lots at Arden Botanical Estate in Trece Martires and Tanza, Cavite; housing units at The Hamptons Terraces and residential lots at The Hamptons Caliraya in Cavinti, Laguna; and residential lots at Eastland Heights in Antipolo, Rizal. Also set for turn over are residential units at Tulip Gardens at Southwoods City in Biñan, Laguna; Twin Lakes Manor and The Belvedere at Twin Lakes in Laurel, Batangas; and units at Boracay Newcoast in Malay, Aklan.

“There remains a strong demand for residential developments and commercial spaces from our developments in key growth areas outside Metro Manila. This highlights the long-term value clients see in our integrated communities, which offer a seamless blend of nature, modern convenience, and investment security,” says Monica T. Salomon, president, GERI.

Currently, GERI enjoys a strong presence in key strategic locations across the Philippines.

In Cavite, the 17-hectare The Lindgren offers Scandinavian-inspired houses surrounded by a commercial district, as well as expansive gardens, lush parks, and natural rivers within Arden Botanical Estate. Over at Laguna, Tulip Gardens stands out for its prime location just a short walk away from Southwoods Mall and just about a minute from the South Luzon Expressway (SLEx). The Hamptons Terraces, on the other hand, is one of several residential villages within the 300-hectare lakeside community The Hamptons Caliraya.

At Laurel, Batangas near Tagaytay, Twin Lakes stands out as the Philippines’ first vineyard resort community, highlighted by standout residential condominium developments like Twin Lakes Manor and The Belvedere, offering panoramic views of the Taal Volcano and lake.

Just east of the metro in Antipolo lies Eastland Heights, a sprawling community set on gently rolling terrain about 1,100 feet above sea level, offering an address surrounded by nature at the foothills of the Sierra Mountains.

“We hope to continue capturing the growing real estate markets in the provinces. By leveraging on the natural beauty of the locations where we are present, we envision our developments to be the most sought-after addresses for business and lifestyle beyond Metro Manila,” adds Salomon.
