MANILA, Philippines - Following the successful launch and brisk sales of its first two towers this year, Acqua Private Residences, the Philippines’ first residential Eden, has unveiled its third residential tower called Dettifoss.
Named after Northern Iceland’s most beautiful waterfall, Dettifoss is one of Europe’s most visually-arresting bodies of water and provides an essential part of Acqua’s six towers that are all named after the most prominent waterfalls in the world. The first two towers launched earlier this year were the Niagara and Sutherland.
At the Acqua Ice Party hosted by leading real estate firm Century Properties on October 21 at Prive, Fort Bonifacio, Acqua Project Head and company Managing Director Marco Antonio said: “The response we received from our clients about Acqua has been overwhelming. We are seeing a trend of younger homeowners who appreciate good location, an experience of both nature and urban conveniences, and the unique country club by the water amenities that Acqua offers.”
Acqua is a 2.4-hectare Vertical Village where greenery, open space and amenities will comprise two times the size of its total land area. Situated in Mandaluyong right across Rockwell in Makati, the property is highly accessible via the newly-opened Estrella-Pantaleon Bridge. The Acqua water shuttle will also be of exclusive service to homeowners and their guests, and take them to and from the Makati side of the river.
True to its name, Acqua features landscaping abundant with greenery with nature-inspired amenities such as a lagoon pool, walking trails to various parts of the development with rock formations, soaring treetop canopy and koi ponds. “The idea behind this is to provide homeowners a true urban escape away from the city’s hectic grind,” Antonio said.
Each of the Acqua buildings’ facades are designed to replicate a pixilated water stream cascading into the entire property, with rooftop parks and pocket gardens adorning various levels of the towers.
“We want residents to experience an adventure everyday at Acqua. We offer not just the promise of a peaceful and reinvigorating respite but a place for fun, relaxation, wellness and exploration,” he added.
Further complementing the Acqua concept is The Pebble, a four-storey “Country Club by the Water” situated front and center of the entire property. It’s white and rounded exterior is likened to a smooth river stone. The Pebble is a 3,000-square meter sports, health, wellness and recreational facility that will include a lounge area and juice bar, a full-sized fitness center with multiple studios for dance, yoga, Pilates, cycling and boxing, a court for basketball and tennis, a climbing wall, a 25-meter lap pool and a lagoon pool.
