Wellness has increasingly become the trend in almost everything – property development among them.
And at the south of Metro Manila is a 700-hectare expanse where Ayala Land Inc. incorporating athletic amenities.
“To realize our vision for Vermosa, we looked at market trends that will impact on how people live in the future,” Inquirer.net quoted Jay Teodoro, estate head of Vermosa as saying.
“People are becoming health conscious. You’ll see that with the proliferation of gyms and healthy packaged food. They are also spending more time and money to engage in physical activities, and we felt that there was a market for people who want to live a healthy and active lifestyle,” Teodoro said.
Seeing a gap in the availability of such facilities along the Cavite and Daang Hari corridor, Ayala Land masterplanned Vermosa as a mixed-use, sustainable estate focused on giving Filipinos the opportunity to live a healthy and active lifestyle, reported Inquirer.net.
And so came about the 8-hectare Vermosa Sports Hub, which opened its doors to the public in 2018, a complete, one-stop training and lifestyle destination for triathletes and sports enthusiasts.
The place can have access to professionally-managed sports facilities that adhere to international standards.
Among highlight is the Vermosa Sports Hub, which has an Olympic-size pool equipped with the latest Anti-wave starting blocks and an automated Omega timing system, and the only IAAF Certified nine-lane track oval in the Philippines.
“We decided to open Vermosa Sports Hub to the public on a pay per use basis instead of selling membership shares. We also made our rates affordable, comparable with that of the public sports facilities, primarily to give more Filipinos access to international-standard sports facilities,” Teodoro told Inquirer.net.
The creation of the Vermosa Sports Hub dovetails with the vision of Ayala Corp., the parent company of Ayala Land, to advocate and further promote sports in the country to help build the next Olympian. It would thus be crucial that the Ayala Group makes this hub all the more accessible to everyone.
Future residents of Vermosa can expect to be near the modern conveniences and business districts of Metro Manila, courtesy of existing major thoroughfares like the Muntinlupa-Cavite Expressway, South Luzon Expressway, and soon, the Cavite-Laguna Expressway. These road networks pave the way towards the next growth center of Southern Luzon.
The 700-hectare Vermosa is situated along the Daang Hari corridor and spans the cities of Imus and Dasmariñas in Cavite.
