Property Location
The white sand beach property is located in the province of Sarangani along the Celebes Sea, the oldest sea in the world. Sarangani is a green province with a beautiful tropical landscape in the most southern part of the Philippines. Due to its Southern location, at only 100 nautical miles distance from Indonesia, the Province is free of typhoons. In contrast to most of the other islands of the Philippines, Sarangani Province does not suffer from the yearly typhoons and the excessive rains and wind damages that result from it.
The beach property is 5 kilometers from the municipality of Glan and another 5 kilometers further from the property is Gumasa. Dubbed as the “Small Boracay in Mindanao” Barangay Gumasa has a six kilometer-long crescent white sand beach and both located on Sarangani’s eastern shore. Around an hours’ drive from General Santos City, which has one of the most modern airports in the Philippines, offering daily flights to and from Manila (the capital of the Philippines) and Cebu City. General Santos City also has the largest fish port in the Philippines and is known as the tuna capital of the country.
The City is continuing to develop with the recent addition of the Robinsons Mall and Shoe Mart (SM) Mall in August 2012. Numerous new hotels have opened for business in the last two years as the city continues to grow.
