Sonora Garden Residences | April 8, 2025
Despite having lived in different parts of Metro Manila—including Quezon City, Makati, and Alabang—Mahaely French Salido and her family chose to invest in a condo in Las Piñas City for a good reason.
For them, the move wasn’t just about finding a new home, it was about embracing a peaceful, well-connected lifestyle.
Drawn to Las Piñas’ laid-back suburban charm, accessibility, and growth potential, Mahaely and her family became one of the first 15 households to move into Sonora Garden Residences in August 2024.
A joint venture of DMCI Homes and Robinsons Land Corporation (RLC), Sonora Garden Residences has provided them with the ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and community.
Why Las Piñas?
Originally from Davao City and raised in Cagayan de Oro, Mahaely moved to Manila to study at UP Diliman and later worked in Alabang. She has lived in different cities across Metro Manila, but Las Piñas stood out for its balance of urban development and suburban tranquility.
“What I love about Las Piñas is how relaxed the vibe is,” she shares. “It’s less crowded, peaceful, and has so much potential for urban growth. It’s a great place to live—not just for families, but also for those looking for investment opportunities.”
For her children, the transition wasn’t easy at first. Having lived in a townhouse, they were hesitant about moving into a condo. “They thought they might feel claustrophobic,” Mahaely admits. But after experiencing Sonora Garden Residences’ open spaces and Lumiventt® Design Technology, which allows natural light and fresh air to flow through the hallways, their doubts quickly disappeared.
“We hadn’t even unpacked yet, and they were already inviting their friends over,” she recalls with a laugh. “They love hanging out at the roof-deck, by the pool—it’s such a great place to relax and feel at home.”
A Home That Complements Their Lifestyle
Spanning 1.4 hectares, Sonora Garden Residences offers thoughtfully designed spaces and modern amenities suited for different lifestyles. Residents can unwind in lush gardens, take a dip in the multiple pools, or stay active at the basketball court, jogging path, and fitness gym. The Sky Lounge provides a scenic venue for gatherings, while Robinsons Place Las Piñas is just a short walk away for shopping and dining convenience.
“If you’re looking for a suburban, peaceful, and well-located home, I highly recommend Sonora Garden Residences,” Mahaely says. “It’s the perfect mix of urban convenience and residential comfort. In fact, my son is already thinking of getting his own unit here—that’s how much we love it.”
