Among all the locations in the South, Metro Sta. Rosa offers the best location as a first home. Touted as the country’s newest booming metropolis, it boasts of proximity to Metro Manila via the upgraded South Luzon Expressway. Multinational corporations in its technoparks offer promising career opportunities for managers and executives. Top schools such as De La Salle, St. Scho, and Don Bosco have formed the South’s University Belt, thus making it easy for couples to work and raise a family at the same time in Metro Sta. Rosa.
Busy executives and entrepreneurs who are looking for a new home in Metro Sta. Rosa usually have two requirements: give them the best lifestyle option and offer them the opportunity to move in right away with very minimal concerns or home upgrades.
Among all the projects in Metro Sta. Rosa, South Forbes Golf City meets both requirements. South Forbes Bali Mansions, with its Modern Asian architecture and resort-inspired designs, offers executives and businessmen a rejuvenating sanctuary as a home. After a hectic day at the office, mom and dad can spend quality time with the kids in their relaxing abode.
Currently, there are two fully furnished Bali Mansions model units that give a glimpse of the Asian lifestyle. Coralia and Lovina were both conceived by top Interior designers Ivy and Cynthia Almario. These two luxurious model units allow highly discriminating families a chance to book a life-long vacation right in their home.
While both are Asian-inspired, there are clear but subtle differences between the two. "Coralia is Asian-modern with Balinese touches," according to Cynthia. Intricate woodcarvings and lyrical hand metal designs bring touch of Southeast Asia to this mansion. Bold colors were used in the rooms: fuchsia pink and apple green for the girl’s room and a dramatic showstopper — red — for the master’s bedroom.
The Lovina, meanwhile, is Asian-modern in a contemporary setting. The Almario sisters used modern accessories such as Japanese artworks and ceramic ware to stand out against the dark brown wood that is the staple of Asian design.
Of all the rooms in the Lovina, perhaps the girl’s room embodies the best resort-inspired lifestyle. A colorful mural of bamboos, birds, and butterflies graces all the sides of her room. Traditional Balinese music, even the humming of birds, can be easily stored in an iPod to complete the ambiance and draw her closer to nature every day. Or all she has to do is to open her balcony’s door to let the sounds of nature fill her personal sanctuary.
The master’s bedroom is spectacular also. Its rust and beige theme gives a dramatic effect to the couple’s daily lives. Luxurious amenities — spacious walk-in closets to store all their precious belongings and his-and-hers lavatories for quick morning preparations — await them in the master’s bathroom.
After a visit at Bali Mansions, busy executives and entrepreneurs will surely discover a personal haven as a home. And they will likely conclude that these two home treasures will be worth the price tag — they don’t have to go through the hassle of building and furnishing a home.
Plus, they get free membership to a world-class golfing haven: the all-weather, 18-hole South Forbes Golf Club. As the first and only property of img SportsClub in the country, South Forbes gives frequent travelers preferred access to and discounted rates in 42 top golf courses worldwide. These include the Laguna Phuket Golf Club in Thailand, The Orchards Golf Club in Massachusetts, and the prestigious Presidio Golf Course in San Francisco.
Executives and entrepreneurs will find it worthwhile to take a breather from their busy schedules and check out the Coralia and Lovina, two of eight handsomely appointed, resort-inspired residences at South Forbes Bali Mansions.
