Twin Lakes, GERI’s second flagship project, is a 1,200-hectarecommunity in Laurel, Batangas, just off Metro Tagaytay. Thecompany is initially putting in P5 billion for the development ofthis first-of-a-kind vineyard resort community expected to be thepremiere medical and educational tourism destination in the country.

Twin Lakes has a panoramic view of Taal Volcano and the Taal Lakeand offers a unique resort lifestyle centered on Tagaytay’s beautifulscenery, the fresh greenery and year-round cool weather.One of the major projects within Twin Lakes is the garden-themedDomaine Le Jardin, a 33-hectare residential village whose designwas inspired by the garden-laden scenery of Tagaytay. DomaineLe Jardin is the first residential community in the country to offerproperties with specially built terrace areas.

The other major development within Twin Lakes is The VineyardResidences, a cluster of residential towers located in a 69-hectaremixed-use complex aptly called the Vineyard. 

GERI’s third major development is Southwoods City, a 561-hectare property in the boundary of Carmona, Cavite and Binan, Laguna into a fully-integrated master-planned township development. SouthwoodsCity, is positioned to be the next residential, business, commercial and leisure hub that is closest and most accessible to Metro Manila. It has set an initial capex of P10 billion for the next 10 years to develop Southwoods City. 

Southwoods City will be Global-Estate’s largest fully integrated township to rise in southern Metro Manila, adjoining the provinces of Cavite and Laguna. Easily accessible through the South Luzon Expressway, Southwoods City is 20 minutes away from Makati CBD.

As a mixed-use development, Southwoods City will add the “golf” component to the LIVE-WORK-PLAY-LEARN lifestyle concept as the 125-hectare Jack Nicklaus-designed Manila Southwoods Golf and Country Club is located right at the heart of the township.
Upcoming Santa Barbara Heights in Iloilo near the International Airport
Southwoods City will also feature a central business district, commercial and retail stores, malls, schools, church, a cyberpark, a medical facility, open parks, leisure facilities, a weekend market, and its own transport hub. 

Soon to rise in the township’s cyberpark are state-of-the-art environment-friendly office towers that will support the growing demand of office spaces especially in the business process outsourcing (BPO) sector. 

Within Southwoods City, the company is introducing Pahara, a 26-hectare sprawling residential village, which consists of 602 available lots ranging from 239 square meters to 523 square meters on hilly terrains with spectacular views of the golf course and the Laguna de Bay.
