MANILA, Philippines - Thousands of pine trees and Tagaytay’s rolling landscapes served as the enchanting backdrop for proud homeowners and partners who witnessed the recent blessing of Brittany’s CrossWinds’ Grand Quartier Tower 2. Offering a welcome escape to the mountainside property, the much-awaited formal opening and turnover of the units has drawn Manila’s weekend warrior into this haven where time stops and living truly begins.
At the grand blessing, residents and friends were treated to a special tour where homeowners opened their units for viewing and welcomed everyone into their second homes. As the music of a bagpipe player pierced through the cold air, guests hopped from unit to unit while partaking of a spread of cheeses and deli favorites. Leading the guests was Camille Villar, Brittany chief operating officer and Nova Noval marketing head.
“We are very proud to offer Grand Quartier Tower 2,” Villar said. “This day marks not only the completion of the property but it also serves as an affirmation for us at Brittany and Vista Land, that the work we have been doing is well appreciated. This is the reason we are now blessing Tower 2. Building on the success of Tower 1, we are continuing on this path because of the exceptional reception that the first tower received.”
With the sweet scent of pine perfuming the cool breeze, fallen pine needles creating a lush green carpet at your feet, and the Swiss-inspired architecture calling to mind the snowy holidays at the Alps, CrossWinds is a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city’s concrete jungle.
Built on the crest of CrossWinds, the Grand Quartier Tower 2 is a charming mid-rise condominium that offers a breathtaking view of Tagaytay and its lush green terrain that has been a favored retreat of urban dwellers for generations. It offers enhanced studio units, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom residences that afford the luxury of Swiss living. Beautifully crafted and intelligently spaced, the Swiss-inspired units provide a grand view both within CrossWinds and onto the greater area of Tagaytay.
Located in barangay Iruhin, Central Calamba Road, Tagaytay City, CrossWinds is less than five minutes away from Tagaytay Picnic Grove. It is about seven minutes away from the Tagaytay Rotunda, the city’s prime hub where the most popular restaurants, activity areas, hotels and casinos are clustered. Tagaytay’s proximity to Manila has made it a favorite weekend destination with day-trippers choosing the shorter drive to this green city rather than a road trip to the summer capital in Baguio. Thus, more dining outlets and relaxation centers continue to set up shop in the area.
The 70-hectare Swiss-inspired community also offers prime amenities including a swimming pool, view deck and pocket parks and gardens. Premium utilities include underground cable for power and communication, deep wells and water reservoir for round-the-clock water supply, and a professional management team to ensure that the property is well maintained.
Along with the blessing, CrossWinds — through its partnership with Hospitality International Inc. — will be offering its residents a unique opportunity for Grand Quartier unit owners. A company that specializes in managing and operating condo-hotels, HII is offering Grand Quartier residents a chance to capitalize on their property by offering their units for lease in the same manner that the top hotel chains are operated.
Luis Monserrat, president of HII, explained that the serviced apartment program will allow residents to earn from renting their units while being assured that their property is well-maintained.
“We at Brittany are fully committed to this program. From our end, we will be providing the amenities needed to ensure that this will be a success. What we are offering, along with HII, is a new avenue that can increase the value of the property, enhance this already beautiful development, and give an opportunity to gain revenue for the residents as well.”
