Tagaytay is famous as a vacation destination that combines the best of both worlds: close enough for a quick 90-minute drive, yet far enough to give the hardworking executive the ability to distance himself from the hustle and bustle and the stresses of the urban rat race. Recognizing the growing need in this market niche, Roxaco Land Corporation designed Anya, a luxury residential resort that raises the bar in services and amenities.
A seven-hectare, low-density community, Anya (Sanskrit for “boundless”) is designed with an eye for luxury. Under the management of Fuego Hotels and Properties Management Corporation, a company with an established expertise in providing hotel and resort management solutions designed for optimum guest satisfaction, Anya boasts of an extensive range of dining, relaxation, and entertainment amenities complemented by the personalized level of world-class service. Discerning guests will not find anything nearby that approaches this level of living outside of Manila.
LIVING UP TO THE GOOD LIFE
The architecture of Anya Residences boasts of a contemporary tropical design, with its interiors showcasing details to express the warmth and familiarity of rustic traditional Filipino style. The color scheme is earthy and neutral with very discreet punches of bright hues in some areas that call for it. Browns, linen-whites and warm greys compliment the rich woods and other natural local finishes such as bamboo and abaca. When taken together, a picture of comfort and function paired with understated sophistication brings home the idea of the Philippine Aesthetic.
Anya’s grounds are masterplanned to include pocket gardens, streams and brooks, and pathways of stone and wood. There are areas allocated for yoga, meditation, and other healthy activities. There’s a spa, a gym, separate pools for guests and residents, and a borderless library where they can take out a book or e-reader to read anywhere within the resort premises.
Other exclusive amenities include romantic private dining experiences at the Samira Terrace Restaurant; discover a coffeeholic and a sommelier’s delight at the Cafe Amra & Lounge, or sample the treats from its Spanish deli line. There is also the pizzeria Anila and its variety of pizzas, all cooked in a wood-fired stone oven. And for those who can’t resist combining business and pleasure, Anya’s conference facilities are flexible enough to accommodate meetings to weddings, and from business conferences to niche exhibitions.
Complementing these is a world-class level of service as befits a five-star deluxe resort. Services are attentive and personalized, which include having a personalized concierge, poolside pampering, round-the-clock security and maintenance, packing and unpacking service, valet parking, tailor-made menus, event planning and catering, wifi, valet parking, laundry and housekeeping. Making sure that the services are maintained as consistent with excellence as much as possible, Anya is establishing partnerships with leading brands, distribution channels, and marketing firms. These would include an internationally-renowned chef and a global spa brand that will offer luxurious pampering and healing treatments, all under the proven management of Fuego Hotels.
But apart from these, what sets Anya apart is its built-in advantage: by investing in a unit in the community, one not only buys into the upscale lifestyle, but also enjoys an income stream that is unique to the market.
REAL INVESTMENT, WITH A TWIST
“Normally, you’d spend to buy, say, a beachfront property as a vacation home, but since you only get to stay there a few times a year, you end up continuously writing checks for its upkeep without maximizing its use,” explained Santiago R. Elizalde, EVP of Roxaco Land Corporation. “With Anya, not only can you enjoy the luxe lifestyle, you stand to earn from it, too.”
The investment program offers 100% security, flexibility and control for the serious investor. Each unit comes with a Certified Condominium Title and revenues are shared across all the inventory, according to square meter ownership. These units form part of the core inventory of the resort hotel, and as revenues are generated, the earnings are split 45% to the investor and 55% to the hotel owner.
Investors are also assured of their money working hard for them, under Anya’s unique investment program. Under this plan, Anya guarantees minimum annual net yields of 6% up to 8%, even without capital appreciation for the initial five years commitment. Adding value to this is a full maintenance program, a branded environment and mitigated risk for the accomplished investor.
The expertise of Fuego Hotels will ensure that the occupancy rate targets are met providing owners with a steady income stream. The Anya reservation system will be tied to Fuego Hotels’ extensive worldwide network of hotels, travel agencies, airlines and online accommodation booking sites. Revenues generated through the sales and marketing efforts of Fuego Hotels will ensure that the guaranteed yields to the Anya investors are realized.
Investors will have the opportunity to choose the types of units available in the community. From 80 spacious guest rooms sized from 48 to 64 square meters (sqms), to 16 one-bedroom suites of 103 to 123 sqms, each unit come turnkey ready, including fixtures, furnishing, and operating supplies and equipment.
