A shoreline cruise. Time together. And calming sunsets.
THE SEA, A LITTLE CLOSER
A world beneath
the blue.
A morning swim. An afternoon discovering the reefs. Another way to make the sea part of your days.
Along the Zambales coast, San Salvador Marine Sanctuary and Masinloc’s Taclobo Farm are part of a protected seascape of coral reefs, seagrass and giant clams. Ask about a locally guided marine excursion to explore this side of island life.

THE BIRDS OF HERMANA MAYOR
Little encounters, all around the island.
A LITTLE CURIOSITY. A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE.
Explore at your own pace.
Take a closer look.
Casual birders can explore the runway, Beach House, Corral Trail, Lighthouse Road, Amihan and Sinaya, as well as the trail towards the old airport.
Keep exploring.
The island’s birding notes suggest exploring all identified sites for a fuller day of observation. Ask about owling only when recent sightings have been confirmed.
Bring your curiosity, a camera or binoculars. Ask your Sinaya representative about including birdwatching in a private island visit.

Rooted in history.
Open to possibility.
Privately held by the Toda family for more than six decades, Hermana Mayor has long been a place of retreat, gathering and connection with nature.
Sinaya begins a new chapter in that story: a small community of family homes, shaped by the quiet character of the island.

Some useful details as you begin to imagine your place at Sinaya.
What is planned at Sinaya?
A planned enclave of approximately 32 hectares, divided into 43 beachfront farm lots starting at 4,500 sqm. Explore the lot plan above for individual areas and boundary dimensions; final details will be confirmed in the project documents.
What does a homesite include?
The residential lot and the developer's commitments set out in the sale documents. Design and construction of your private home are separate. The shoreline easement and open space do not form part of the individual lot title.
How will ownership be arranged?
The project is intended to offer individual freehold titles. Title status, approvals and the transfer timetable for a selected lot will be confirmed before purchase. Transfer follows full payment and completion of the required sale, tax and registration formalities.
What estate services are planned?
Planned shared works include estate roads, drainage, water supply and distribution, and road lighting. The project and sale documents will set out delivery commitments, connections, homeowner responsibilities and ongoing charges.
What is the current project status?
Sinaya is in pre-launch. The required DHSUD approvals and License to Sell are being secured. Sales may proceed only once the required License to Sell and other applicable approvals are in place.
How can I explore a particular homesite?
Ask your Sinaya representative about a private visit and the current property information. The private proposal sets out indicative pricing, payment options and the documents to review. Final terms, applicable taxes and fees will be itemised in the definitive documents.
