A refined coastal lifestyle finds its place in scenic Ilocos
A premier coastal destination in the North is beginning to take shape as Megaworld Corp. jumpstarts development at the 84-hectare Ilocandia Coastown in Laoag City.
The property giant recently unveiled Ilocandia Beach Village, its inaugural residential seaside enclave within the promising Ilocandia Coastown, touted as the first ever live-work-play beachfront township in the entire Ilocos Region.


A pioneering concept in the North
Long celebrated for its heritage landmarks, dramatic landscapes, and pristine beaches, Ilocos Norte now stands on the cusp of a new phase as Ilocandia Coastown pioneers a refreshing seaside urban concept in Northern Luzon.
Set along a 1.4-km beachline beside the iconic Fort Ilocandia Hotel, Ilocandia Coastown is envisioned as a fully integrated beachfront district bringing together residences, commercial spaces and leisure environments within a masterplanned setting.
Planned components—which include a town center, a lifestyle mall, shophouse and commercial districts, and hotels—position the township as a vibrant coastal hub supporting Ilocos Norte’s expanding tourism landscape, while attracting more residents and investors to the province.
This up and coming township also benefits from a strategic location given its proximity to the Laoag International Airport and heritage icons such as the Paoay Church, a Unesco World Heritage Site. This places future residents and guests at the heart of Northern Luzon’s culture, connectivity, tourism, and premier coastal living.


The only beach village in Laoag
At the same time, it establishes Megaworld’s first residential village in Ilocandia Coastown as a highly coveted seaside address and an anchor of Ilocos Norte’s rising coastal and lifestyle hub.
Spanning 19.4 hectares, Ilocandia Beach Village is set to become the first and only exclusive gated residential community in Laoag City that has a direct beach access. It will offer 446 residential lots ranging from 230 sqm to 406 sqm, each oriented toward unobstructed sea views and immediate shoreline access.
The community is planned to support a relaxed coastal lifestyle shaped by proximity to the water, open landscapes, and sea breezes, all within a private sanctuary inspired by the timeless seaside elegance of Santa Monica, reinterpreted through Ilocano warmth and tropical design.
“We envision Ilocandia Beach Village transforming Laoag’s landscape by offering a vibrant seaside lifestyle that celebrates the beauty of Ilocandia’s stunning coastline,” said May Santos, head of Sales and Marketing of Ilocandia Coastown.

Designed for living well
At the heart of the village is a two-story modern tropical clubhouse framed by coastal greenery. Residents and guests are welcomed to light-filled, glass-lined interiors, where high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows create an airy, refined beachfront atmosphere.
This space anchors the village’s shared amenities, including a fitness center with movement studio, entertainment room, kids’ playroom, and a function hall for up to 160 guests. Outdoors, a swimming pool with jacuzzi and spa jets, cabanas, sun lounges, alfresco dining areas, and open workout spaces extend living and recreation into nature.
The Clubhouse also connects directly to the Central Park, a landscaped green spine with jogging paths linking picnic groves, a multiplay court with bleachers, and expansive lawns. Linear parks woven through residential blocks introduce pocket gardens and fitness trails, while a sand play zone, dedicated pet park, and urban agri garden create a community centered on wellness.


A first in Laoag
Further raising the standard for coastal developments in Laoag, Ilocandia Beach Village will also be the city’s first residential community to feature fully underground cabling for power and telecommunications utilities. By placing infrastructure below ground, Megaworld preserves unobstructed skyline views and the clean, natural character of the beachfront setting.
Megaworld is currently offering residential lots ranging from 230 sqm to 406 sqm, with turnover scheduled by 2031. It expects P2 billion in sales from Ilocandia Beach Village.
As infrastructure begins to advance, Ilocandia Coastown, this early, signals a new phase for Ilocos Norte, with its storied coastline emerging as the premier coastal destination of the North.
