It’s that time of the year again when the temperature goes slightly higher and the prospect of being close to the sea becomes more exciting. Considering that the past two years have prevented people from leaving their respective homes for the beaches and how COVID-19 alert levels have gone down these days, people are craving the sun and sea. This means more crowds, more traffic during the weekends and a relatively increased chance of catching the virus.

Imagine having the opportunity to not experience the summer hassle however. Living in a beachfront paradise where all you see is meant to fulfill some sort of natural or functional purpose might seem like a pipe dream, but it’s actually fairly plausible. Enter Seafront Residences, AboitizLand’s premiere beachfront residential development and sanctuary perfectly nestled in San Juan, Batangas. Being awarded the Best Housing Development in the Philippines and Best Housing Development in Luzon by the Philippines Property Awards in 2021, Seafront Residences is a testament of the developer’s proficiency at master-planning and commitment to making life better for its vecinos.

So if you’re looking for a place to call home during the summer that is just a few hours drive from Manila, Seafront Residences is your ideal place to consider. Here are a few reasons why summer is definitely better in this residential development.

Away From The Hustle And Bustle

At the end of the day, people take vacation days particularly in the summer because they want to be away from the Metro. After all, healthy breaks in routine help you keep your balance and realize that there’s more to life than just work. The thing is, given how fast-paced the world can get and the lingering effects of a pandemic that’s slowly being cured, these breaks are rare and hard to come by these days.

If you live by a beachfront property, these breaks can be taken on an almost daily basis. In Seafront Residences, taking a break can be as simple as putting your laptop down if you work remotely and taking in that nice view of the different hues of blue that color both the sea and sky. Perhaps, if you have time, a 15-minute walk around the greenbelts and Diamond Parks to destress and refresh yourself. Breaks like these help you improve focus and reinvigorates you for the rest of the day.

Given the seaside’s therapeutic effects, it won’t only get you ready for work, it’s going to get you pumped up until the end of the day. Compare this to the breaks you take whenever you’re in the Metro or somewhere urban and populated and you’ll notice the stark difference between this and the rural seaside.

Located 125 kilometers from NCR, Seafront Residences is easily accessible through major National Highways. It is strategically located along San Juan-Laiya national road, giving you access to San Juan town proper, its Municipal Hall, and the San Juan District Hospital.

The Master-Planned Community

Designed by the renowned and International urban masterplanner firm Duany and Plater-Zyberk (DPZ), every nook and corner of Seafront Residences was meant to fulfill both a functional and aesthetic purpose. Being the primary designers for Seaside in Florida, DPZ follows the principles of New Urbanism. Through this architectural school of thought, AboitizLand shows its commitment not only to environmentalism and long term sustainability, but also to helping people improve their lives. 

Each intricate detail of the 43-hectare beachfront property shows how much of an expert DPZ is in designing seaside communities with how the houses are placed beside each other, fronting diamond parks and somehow having a visible view of the ocean. Additionally, most of its houses face pedestrian-only parks that provide direct access and views to the wide green spaces Seafront Residences has. 

One of the more impressive features of Seafront Residences’ design is its selection of wide open roads and paths that conveniently lead to amenities and greatly encourages traveling by foot. So rather than starting up your car to grab some ice cream from the nearest convenience store, you could just put some flip flops on and make your way there. All the while, enjoying the nice view of the ocean and the cool sea breeze that comes with it.

The Sun, Surf, And Sand

There’s a reason why people choose the beach as their favorite vacation spot and it’s more than just being away from the familiar. The saying goes that if you want to move on from a bad experience or a heartbreak, all you need is the sun, sea, and salt which are the inherent features in most beaches. Another factor to consider is how people have been cooped up in their respective homes for 2 years because of the pandemic. Statistically speaking too, most people who live near the beach are shown to be less susceptible to depression and other related mental health issues. So if you’re looking to recharge and heal from a long few months of work, the beach is the place to go.

Now imagine if you lived in a beachfront property like Seafront Residences. Not only will you have a more balanced lifestyle, you also don’t have to routinely look at your calendar to plan for a beach trip since it’s literally within walking distance. The healing powers of the sea is just right outside your door and all you need to do is open it. 

In terms of benefits you can get from the sun, surf, and sand, there are a lot to mention. For instance, the colors of the sea, blue  and green, naturally help keep you calm and relieve stress to some extent. The ionization of the air near the beach and other bodies of water helps you keep calm and has been known to relieve seasonal affective disorder. The sun, apart from giving you a nice tan, provides you with vitamin D, helps you have a happier mood and can give your skin a special treatment that revitalizes you. Lastly, as mentioned earlier, the property encourages you to walk rather than drive – this allows you to live a more active lifestyle, improving your quality of life and helping you get/ stay fit.

When the summer comes and people flock to the beaches, you’ll be busy soaking up the sun and enjoying the relieving effects of the sea throughout the rest of the year.

Functional Amenities For Summer

When it comes to amenities that fit the summer mood, none embody it more than the swimming pool. People from Metro Manila often opt for swimming pools if they don’t have access to beaches as they are an ideal alternative. If you live in an area that’s got a natural swimming pool and has adjacent artificial ones, the only thing you need to worry about is choosing which one you want to take a dip in at the end of the day.

Seaside Residences has more than just swimming pools and pool facilities. It also has clubhouses, the town center, greenbelts and parks. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special family milestone or occasion, clubhouses have function rooms that you can rent to facilitate this. The Seafront Town Center will be the go-to place for retail and dining destinations if you want to shop or just eat good food with family and friends. If you just want a simple place to walk in with nice green views that can help you relax and de-stress after a long and hectic day at work, the greenbelts and parks are excellent places to catch your breath.

At the end of the day, Seafront Residences’ summer experience is something you can have all year long. The only potential difference is that there can potentially be more vecinos in the beach who own a house or two in the property.

If you’re looking for a piece of beachfront property to call your own, Seafront Residences is a great place to start. Seafront Villas, a small cluster of condominium units located within the property, has unveiled a new building – the 6 Riada Lane! Also, get ready for the most awaited season in Seafront Residences with our Summerfest 2022.
