Amiya Raya: Zen living at the top

With the pandemic changing our lifestyle for the past year and a half, we have been accustomed in living at home. Like me, while I previously spend my days socializing, now I discovered that there's more to navigate and discover things at home. While I sit and do my regular chores peacefully at home, I also sometimes think about getting another sanctuary in which I can do so much more.

For home seekers, Amiya Raya presents a sanctuary that offers a lot to make up for the lonely days. Living at the top of San Mateo gives a wide view overlooking Metro Manila to Manila Bay where you can see a beautiful sunset every day. A beautiful panoramic view day in and day out while enjoying a cool breeze above.


It is also an accessible venue from different premier universities, shopping districts, and medical centers. On the other hand, it is also tucked away in lush and spacious greeneries, giving its residents privacy and much-needed breathing space.

Inside the community are different recreational and functional amenities where you can immerse in fitness, relaxing, and celebrating. Club Vihara, Amiya Raya’s top-caliber clubhouse and sports facility, offers residents who are fitness buffs and sports enthusiasts access to indoor badminton courts, a multi-sports court (coming soon), a gym, CrossFit areas, a boxing ring, and a wall climbing facility. Those who opt for games with friends and family will surely enjoy hours in the game area with billiards, darts, and table games. Despite countrywide lockdowns and limitations in gatherings, intimate celebrations are still possible at the spacious club event halls that open up to wide balconies.

For sunny and chill days, residents can enjoy a dip in the club’s infinity pool while basking in city views and mountain landscapes. Kids also have their own space in an elaborate playroom at the club.

Staying at home has become an exciting adventure that enriches the senses. Spending time with the people you love in the privacy of your space in a place that delights is something the community’s dwellers love.

The newest homes at Amiya Raya allow its residents to live with nature, a welcome experience for the soul and the senses. Its designs are inspired by various Asian architectural concepts – modern, minimalist and Zen. Each home boasts of split-level structures that enhance the use of ground space and opens interesting visual perspectives around the living area. It incorporates classic, clean lines; a simple yet luxurious design; generous open living areas; efficient use of space; and a sense of natural tropical style.

The houses’ blueprint allows its residents to be still and to move with ease. One other hand, its minimalist design gives the home ample room to evolve as time passes, matching the life lived of its owner.

Community Creators, Inc. is the owner and developer of premium residential projects Amiya Raya in San Mateo Rizal and Atlanta in Malolos Bulacan. It is founded and headed by CEO Chay Garcia.
