CONSUNJI-LED DMCI Homes announced on Wednesday that it has allocated P6 billion for its eco-agri condotel Moncello Crest in Tuba, Benguet.
The residential resort project initially launched 522 units in May, DMCI Homes said in a statement on Wednesday.
The company stated its leisure arm, DMCI Homes Leisure Residences, is expanding in northern Luzon following the completion of its Solmera Coast property in San Juan, Batangas.
Moncello Crest, designed as a mountain resort, is equipped with amenities such as a heated outdoor jacuzzi, fire pits for guests, and a roof deck for visitors.
DMCI said that the complex will host an all-day dining restaurant, café, game room, spa, gym, multi-purpose athletics play area, daycare center, and convention center for large events.
“Moncello Crest’s name draws from montel, an Italian word for mountain, and the Spanish word ariceli referring to an “altar in the sky,” the company said.
Located in Tuba, the condotel is accessible via Marcos Highway and is within Barangay Poblacion.
Within the municipality, residents can visit the BenCab Museum, hot spring resorts, and Pan Ay-Ayaman Eco Park. The “Bridal Veil” Falls, Aran Cave, and Ifugao Woodcarvers Village can also be explored while staying in Moncello Crest.
“Tuba, Benguet has emerged as a popular tourist destination given its proximity to Baguio City and its thriving agri-tourism industry,” the company said. — Aubrey Rose A. Inosante
