Landco has built a
solid reputation for pioneering premium landscapes for more than 30 years with
its flagship project of Punta Fuego in Nasugbu in the 90s to its latest
development of BeahTowns CaSoBe (Calatagan South Beach) and Club Laiya, along
with the exclusive residential developments of Playa Calatagan and Playa Laiya.
Landco continues to
innovate and cement its positioning as a market leader in the development of premium
beachfront properties in Batangas. The launch of the Grand Coral Clubhouse as
an attractive new facility elevates the lifestyle experience of Playa Laiya
residents and the beach community of Batangas. It creates a new benchmark for
amenities of exclusive residential resorts and leisure developments in the
country.
Built on a 128-hectare
leisure and tourism estate, Playa Laiya is a joint project of Landco and Aplaya
Laiya Corporation (ALC), offering an extensive beachfront that serves as the
perfect setting for seaside living. The Grand Coral Clubhouse’s unique
architectural design and construction at Playa Laiya is a collaborative effort
of Landco and ALC, together with the support of key partners. Situated at the focal
point of Playa Laiya, it is a portal through which the sea, the beach, and
nature blend, serving as a perfect backdrop and venue for residents, and their
guests, and the community to converge in this modern beach town.
The design of the
clubhouse takes inspiration from the natural beauty of the environment with
multi-layered composition and complexity that creates a sense of balance
and peace. The clubhouse is accentuated with discs of varying heights,
suggesting the hierarchy of the spaces underneath. These spaces are encased
with curved walls, with openings strategically located to provide expansive sea
and garden views.
The highlight of
the Grand Coral Clubhouse is the “Starry, Starry, Night” swimming pool which is
a fitting ode to Vincent van Gogh’s masterpiece. At night, it is transformed into a dramatic
swimming pool with a unique decorative lighting system consisting of fiber
optics lighting points on the pool floor. Once guests are immersed in the
water, they are enveloped in countless stars from above the night sky and the
illusion of a starry sky emanating from the bottom of the swimming pool.
For celebrations,
the Clubhouse features the 350-sqm Hegland Hall, a fitting tribute to the
colorful life of shipping mogul Ole Hegland. He was instrumental in creating a
thriving and cohesive community where residents enjoy the lush greenery,
mountain forest and white sand beach.

When Hegland came
to the Philippines in the early 80s, his mission was to recruit Filipino
seafarers for his shipping business.
However, the siren’s call of the mythological story of the “mermaids in
the mountain lakes” of Laiya, San Juan, Batangas, diverted his attention to the
beautiful and lush plains, forested mountains, and seascape. Instead, he
decided to develop Laiya’s expansive land to give people the experience of
living by nature and the sea, in a community that brings people of diverse
backgrounds together to live in harmony.
His vision planted
the seed that has now grown to become the residential, commercial and tourism
development of Laiya.
The Hegland Hall
can accommodate up 150 guests. There are 14 cabanas by the pool for both
residents and guests to lounge and relax in. The Reef poolside restaurant
offers all-day refreshments and meals to satisfy cravings.

Playa Laiya’s Grand Coral Clubhouse design is inspired by the natural beauty of the coral reefs and the beach. |
The architecture of
the exceptional clubhouse not only enhances the essence of Playa Laiya as an
exclusive residential beach development, but it also represents the values of
Landco for its pioneering mindset, commitment to sustainability, and dedication
to premium development to enable a new kind of lifestyle that is envisioned for
Playa Laiya.
With the
newly-opened Grand Coral Clubhouse as a world-class and luxurious amenity, residents,
visitors, guests, and the community will be able to collaborate and connect to
create meaningful memories, celebrate milestones, and integrate their resort
lifestyle experiences. Whether regularly spending a lively morning, a quiet
afternoon, or relaxing night swim, or having a poolside barbecue get-together,
clubhouse guests can revel in the venue’s unique design inspired by nature’s
beauty.
