You can reach this luxury resort-inspired village from Makati or BGC in less than an hour

Within its sprawling township in General Trias, Cavite, property giant Megaworld continues to raise the bar for curated residential villages, this time taking inspiration from some of the world's best destinations for its Maple Grove Park Village, a first-of-its-kind, luxury spa resort-inspired residential community within its 140-hectare Maple Grove township.

To bring this extraordinary vision to life, Megaworld tapped Wimberly, Allison, Tong & Goo (WATG), experts in integrated luxury hospitality design who are also behind some of the most beautiful resort destinations in the world such as Shangri-La Maldives, Sofitel Bali in Indonesia, and Atlantis, The Palm in Dubai, to design the property.

«We developed Maple Grove Park Village with the discerning market in mind. They are the ones who work hard during weekdays and look forward to staycations and out-of-town trips as a form of escape on weekends. They are willing to spend on relaxation and put a premium on their health and well-being as it is already a part of their lifestyle. This was a key insight that led to the vision for this residential development,» says Eugene Em Lozano, senior vice president for sales and marketing, Megaworld.

Living with nature

This highly sought-after residential development is strategically located in a more secluded area of Maple Grove to give residents exclusivity and privacy while still giving them access to the rest of the township. Its design is inspired by contemporary tropical architecture that's perfectly suited for a resort-style residential setting that mirrors the feel and ambiance of luxury spa resorts.

Among the highlights of Maple Grove Park Village are 10 different themed lush parks and communal gardens inspired by spa and wellness landscapes and activities for its future residents.

These include Color Gardens (Chroma-therapy) featuring brightly colored trees and alleys filled with flowers; a Garden of Tranquility featuring an enclosed reflection lawn, an open lawn, together with herbs and vegetable plots; Edible Gardens that come with fruit-bearing trees, picnic tables, and play structures; an Aromatherapy Garden with aromatic plants, picnic areas, and yoga and
