Roxaco Land Corporation (Roxaco), the property unit of listed holding firm Roxas and Company, Inc. (RCI), will spend P600 million to develop an upscale serviced resort and residences development in scenic Tagaytay City.

In a statement, Roxaco said it partnered with VJ Properties, Inc. (VJPI) to develop Anya Resort and Residences, a six-hectare boutique development located in a tranquil and private area at the country’s “second summer capital.”

The high-end resort community, which will offer accommodation and amenities such as dining, a destination pool, health gym, and spa facilities for both residents and guests, is expected to launch its residential phase by second half of 2010.

The P600 million Roxaco will allot for the project will cover the development of the residential lots, resort facilities and spa and restaurant amenities.

Reminiscent of the Asian tropics, Anya’s blueprint boasts of a spacious and fenceless landscape in a quiet and peaceful setting that is perfect for de-stressing after a hectic workweek.

“The calming ambience of tropical Asia coupled with Tagaytay’s all-year cool and crisp weather make the perfect weekend home for families living a fast-paced city life,” said Roxaco senior vice president Santiago Elizalde.

A total of 48 open lots, with an average area of 450 square meters, will available for sale. As an added feature, buyers can choose from three pre-existing signature home designs that feature streamlined tropical Asian architecture.

“We will offer our residents an array of services, such as home spa treatments, as well as housekeeping, repairs and maintenance, and rental management,” said Elizalde.

He explained that “resorts normally only provide serviced accommodations to guests and not to residents but we thought differently. By extending full-serviced facilities to our residents, we truly live by our vision of redefining second home living through a luxurious, stress-free and hassle-free atmosphere.”
