Description
Amonsagana
Amonsagana is master planned as a premier class retirement village community covering a total area of 32 hectares (320,000 square meters). The project will be developed in four phases wherein each phase is named after the four basic elements of nature
� Saga Tierra (Earth), Saga Lluvia (Water), Saga Viento (Wind/Air) and Saga Solare (Sun/Fire).
AMONSAGANA is master planned as a premier class retirement village development with layout and architectural designs emphasizing interaction between people in the community while safe-guarding open spaces and natural habitat. More than 40 percent of the land
is dedicated to roads, parks, gardens, water catchment, organic farm, nature reserve and communal amenities. The infrastructure includes water, electricity, telephone, cable television and data supply lines as well as gated access and perimeter security.
The project is nestled in the Mandayao Hills of Balamban Municipality, offering a unique combination of natural beauty, amazing views and the perfect setting for outdoor activities. A large part of Balamban is covered by the central mountain range of Cebu Island, giving rise to the development of numerous eco-tourism projects with focus on preservation of the environment. The development of Amonsagana as an eco-friendly retirement village will be in line with the initiatives of the Balamban Municipality.
AMONSAGANA is nestled in the Mandayao Hills of Balamban, a picturesque and peaceful township just 45 kilometers west of Cebu City. Located at an average altitude of 200 meters above mean sea level. AMONSAGANA enjoys a unique combination of natural beauty, amazing
360 degrees views and the perfect setting for the outdoors. The views of the South China Sea and the Central Cebu mountain range are as stunning as they are calming in a peaceful haven where the natural environment and the community are perfect balance.

Next steps for moving to Philippines
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
