Ohana Place nears completion

MANILA, Philippines - After two years since its launch as the first Modern Polynesian-themed development south of Metro Manila, Ohana Place by DMCI Homes is nearing completion as a fully-operational community with its sixth building, Lanai, recently achieving ready-for-occupancy status.

Lanai replicates the charming appeal of the other residential buildings in Ohana Place: Honolulu, Maui, Anahola, Lanikai, and Kauai. The seventh and last building, Hanelei, is likewise on schedule for completion and set for turnover on November 2010.

By then, the seven home-clusters efficiently spaced on a 3.14-hectare prime location along the vibrant Alabang-Zapote Road, will emerge as an idyllic community of like-minded professionals and start-up families. All buildings will boast of first-rate building and development features, resort-like amenities with a unique Polynesian flavour, top-of-the-line safety and security provisions, plus the signature advantages of modern, urban living promised and delivered by its developer, DMCI Homes.

As Lanai turns over the building units to excited homeowners, the sixth building will blossom into a sanctuary that will welcome residents every day. The view of a lushly-designed landscaped central atrium at the ground level beckons from the corridor balconies of all five floors, providing a refreshing feature indoors to complement the gorgeous landscape outside the building. This common area is also a place of convergence among neighbours, fostering the spirit of family which in Hawaiian, translates to “Ohana.”

Inside their own units, residents can further fulfill their dream lifestyle, with generous unit cuts and sizes ranging from 56.50 to 76.50 sqm for the two-bedroom units and 90 sqm for the three-bedroom unit. This is perfect for professionals and newly-married couples looking for just the right space to enjoy their upgraded standards of living.

For the growing family, there are tandem units that measure up to 108 sqm that can accommodate more members while having enough space for various activities and living requirements. Lanai houses a total of 119 units with an average of 25 units per floor — offering a medium density living proposition for the comfort and exclusivity of all residents. All units feature their own balcony and roof deck service area/ utility cages.

The rest of the building features convey both aesthetic and functional attributes, from the Hawaiian-inspired building façade and resort-themed receiving area at the upper ground floor, to the one-of-a-kind scenic elevator, single-loaded corridors for efficient lighting and ventilation, and basement parking, among others. These common areas will be professionally maintained by the Property Management Office (PMO) team, which will be on hand to provide other services to the residents.

DMCI Homes is the country’s premier triple A builder-developer that brings serviced and themed communities within reach of urban families who once had limited residential options, but still aspire to achieve a comfortable, enriching quality of life proximate to their place of work.
