ShareSaw recent pics of a wedding held at The Monochrome Events Place in Nuvali — glad to know it’s finally up and running! Got to visit that area and spend a few minutes by the Nuvali lakeside sometime in December. Stopped and parked the car because I noticed the well-lit walkway fronting the events place– [...]
ShareSome time ago, we took the Nuvali South exit at the end of Parkway Settings and Avida Village to see where it would lead. Because we had the Nuvali sticker, the guard let us through and told us we could use the same way going back. Nuvali South’s East Diversity Avenue is connected to Carmelray [...]
Share Visited the wakepark twice in the past 2 weeks, only to wonder at the empty parking lot. Turns out they’ve been working on a surprise: TO ALL BEGINNERS! The loooong wait is over!!! Republ1c Wakepark’s BEGINNER’S LAKE / LITTLE BRO will already be OPEN STARTING TOMORROW, Wednesday, October 10, 2012! 8:30 am to 5:30 [...]
Share Rode the water taxi in Nuvali for the first time in April 2012, and saw up close two new structures under construction around the lake. First spotted the Kukun Hotel, one of the many new branches of the Ayala hotel brand. It’s located right across One Evotech (Convergys). New structure #2 is the Monochrome [...]
ShareI love markets and have always wished for authentic flea markets in the Philippines — those that offered real bargains and rare finds (as opposed to tiangge staples or imported goods at inflated prices). At one point I even considered setting up a car boot in the Ortigas area, just to organize the community and [...]
Share This photo was taken by my friend, Christopher Tan, last Easter. Looking good! I just hope to see actual people on boards going around that lake soon soon soon. Tweet
Share Spotted in Nuvali: the “free ride” shuttle! According to the driver, there are three shuttles like this that go around Nuvali. They do the rounds of the different villages (pick up point is by the gate), even all the way to Montecito, and back to the Solenad area three times everyday: 6:30 am 11:00 am [...]
ShareWas happy to see this on the way back from Tagaytay last Monday– the Nuvali gas station finally open! I took a quick shot and the Shell Nuvali gas boys were happy to oblige, complete with welcome waves and big, warm smiles! Just a tip: We went back there today and were told they’re still [...]
ShareHappy to share the following photo updates from a Republic Wakepark album aptly entitled “Ok. So you wanted proof“: The official website and facebook page of Republic Wakepark have been idle for a while, what with continued delays in the opening of what’s been dubbed as “the newest and most innovative wakepark in the world“, but [...]
ShareOne of the major come-ons of Nuvali for me has always been the man-made lake. When I first heard about it in 2007, I immediately had a vision of our very own lakeside/ mini-waterfront promenade in the Philippines, similar to Singapore’s Harbour Front/Vivo City. Forward to 2012, less than 5 years hence, and the lake [...]
ShareHere’s a new video showing exciting Nuvali developments! Good updated overview in 5 minutes. Wonder why Miriam College wasn’t included, also didn’t notice Avida Village in the round up of residential communities. Was nice to see perspectives of the upcoming Kukun Hotel and Monochrome events place, though. More videos from the nuvali.ph website. Thanks to [...]
ShareWill let the pictures do the talking (taken on various days in December 2011): Tweet
