Still having second thoughts about high-rise living? There are numerous benefits that come to mind.
For one, your home in the city will bring you closer to transport hubs and major thoroughfares. Your commute or drive to work and back will be much shorter which will let you have more time with your family. Condominiums or condotels are often located at the heart of the city where it is near business centers and public places.
Property developer Sta. Lucia Land Inc. has handpicked locations where it is readily accessible to everything you need including malls. Sta. Lucia properties include a mall offering retail shops, boutiques, restaurants and more are located within its premises. A quick run to the grocery will only be an elevator ride away.
Convenience is always top of mind when it comes to purchasing condominiums.
You can get used to living the good life with all the amenities within your reach. If you want to take a refreshing dip in the pool, take the elevator and the pool will be all yours.
Stay fit and healthy every time you visit the fitness center within your building. A walk along the landscaped gardens will make you stress-free after a long day at work. The kids will have ample room to run around in the spacious playground.
If you enjoy staying in hotels, then condotel living will suit your taste. Condotels are condo units that are operated as a hotel. Each condotel is a fully-furnished apartment that is ideal for long-term stay with complete access to all amenities.
The upside for condotels is that your fully-owned hotel suite can earn for you. It becomes a profitable investment when you’re away. Sta. Lucia hotel management together with their tie-ups with multiple booking sites can hook you up with people who are interested.
