Spearheading golf expansions in the Philippines
Sta. Lucia Land has built developments and reshaped the narrative of golf as a cornerstone of lifestyle and leisure. With a portfolio of championship golf courses, the company has transformed the sport into an experience that intertwines nature, innovation, and inclusivity.
Architectural mastery of golf course design
Each course is an ode to the artistry and strategy behind golf course architecture, blending challenging layouts with stunning landscapes.
At Eagle Ridge Golf and Country Club in General Trias, Cavite, four championship courses offer distinct experiences crafted by golf legends Greg Norman, Isao Aoki, Nick Faldo, and Andy Dye. These designs showcase a spectrum of play styles, from meticulously crafted hazards to sweeping fairways that reward precision and creativity.
In Lipa City, Batangas, the Summit Point Golf and Country Club epitomizes global inspiration with its “World 18” concept. This course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., mirrors iconic holes from the world’s most prestigious fairways. Players traverse a tapestry of international golf heritage while enjoying the unique charm of the Philippine countryside.
Cultural milestones in golf tourism
The Orchard Golf and Country Club in Dasmariñas, Cavite, remains a pivotal chapter in Philippine golf history.
With its courses designed by Arnold Palmer and Gary Player, The Orchard gained international acclaim by hosting the 1995 Johnnie Walker Classic and the 1996 Johnnie Walker Super Tour. These events elevated the club’s status and solidified the Philippines as a competitive destination on the global golf map.
In Davao City, South Pacific Golf and Leisure Estates presents a harmonious blend of
residential living and golf. Framed by the majesty of Mount Apo, this development caters to both avid players and those seeking a serene retreat, showcasing the developer’s knack for integrating lifestyle and leisure.
The future of golf
Sta. Lucia Land’s influence extends beyond infrastructure to programs that nurture the next generation of players.
Under the guidance of its leadership, grassroots initiatives have taken shape, focusing on junior golf development and training. These programs create opportunities for children, club employees, and caddies—nurturing talent and a deeper appreciation for the sport.
Collaborating with the Department of Tourism further strengthens the country’s position as a premier golf destination. This partnership merges sports and tourism and draws international players and enthusiasts to the Philippines.
Designing for sustainability
In line with contemporary environmental considerations, Sta. Lucia Land incorporates sustainable practices into its golf developments.
Pinewoods Golf and Country Club in Baguio City exemplifies this ethos, offering a par-72 course within the Mountain Province’s rolling hills. Its design respects the natural topography, creating a synergy between playability and environmental stewardship.
Sta. Lucia Land’s commitment to green initiatives extends to its clubhouses and facilities, designed with eco-friendly principles. By engaging local government efforts in sustainability programs, the developer continues to champion environmentally conscious growth.
The enduring legacy of Sta. Lucia Land
Sta. Lucia Land’s golf developments represent a vision that elevates the sport into a cultural and environmental narrative. The developer creates spaces where history, luxury, and nature converge by marrying innovative design, community engagement, and sustainability.
In every meticulously designed course, every community initiative, and every collaboration with global icons, the company reaffirms its leadership in shaping a legacy that resonates far beyond fairways and greens.
