EmpowHER: Celebrating Women, Championing Communities in Savannah

A proud part of the award-winning Georgia estate, Savannah is a premier residential development in Iloilo, offering iconic Spanish-Mediterranean homes in a secure environment that fosters convenience and connectivity.

Savannah in Iloilo staged EmpowHER Fest, a curated collection of activities across its residential communities in celebration of Women’s Month. This initiative reflects an intent to create spaces that support women in their personal, professional, and social pursuits, recognizing their role as drivers of both household security and neighborhood stability.

EmpowHER Fest was conceived as a platform for opportunity, bringing together residents, homebuyers, investors, and business partners in an environment that encouraged exchange and shared experience. It positioned empowerment not as an abstract idea, but as something tangible within the Savannah community.

The Vista Land Iloilo Team opened avenues for economic mobility through recruitment, encouraging women to pursue financial independence and long-term growth.

Committed communities

At the Community Market, local enterprises took the spotlight, with a food truck assembly, a car boot bazaar, and a fruit market, enabling small and medium-sized enterprises to engage directly with residents. Acoustic performances and an outdoor cinema added a cultural layer, transforming commerce into connection.

This momentum carried over to the Wellness Street, where empowerment was measured by well-being. Free haircuts, massages, and beauty products from Avon Cosmetics were offered alongside vegetable production training, blending self-care with sustainability and reinforcing that confidence and capability grow when wellness is welcomed.

At the Carnival Street, a dedicated play area ensured that families could fully participate in the festivities, emphasizing the importance of inclusive environments. In parallel, the Business Street opened avenues for economic mobility through recruitment opportunities and the She Invest Open House, encouraging women to explore financial independence and long-term growth. The Raffle Street introduced an element of excitement through giveaways, bringing together all zones in a celebration of participation.

A set standard

Since its inception, Savannah has established itself as the premier residential development in Iloilo, offering iconic Spanish-Mediterranean homes, state-of-the-art facilities, and a secure environment that fosters both convenience and connectivity. The multi-phased neighborhood has consistently set the standard for suburban living, serving as a model for communities in the Visayas region.

The natural beauty of Savannah, nurtured along landscaped greenways and leisure hubs, promotes wellness and well-being. Every forever home is built to balance form and function, creating dynamic spaces that adapt to the diverse needs of Filipino families. Complementing these are a suite of amenities spanning lifestyle, leisure, and everyday essentials, enriching the rhythm of residential life.

Savannah also distinguishes itself with two residential enclaves: The Grove, ideal for those who seek vitality and vibrance, and The Orchard, a sanctuary for those who prefer laid-back living. This duality ensures Savannah continues to fulfill distinct aspirations while maintaining its stature as a premium address.

Part of a master planned perspective

Savannah is a proud part of Georgia, a Vista Land master planned development that has redefined the residential landscape of Iloilo. Recognized by PropertyGuru with the Highly Commended Award for Township Development, Georgia exemplifies the vision of an integrated estate. It was also hailed as the Best Mixed-Use Development in Visayas and Mindanao by Lamudi The Outlook 2023: Philippine Real Estate Awards.

Touted as Iloilo’s biggest lifestyle destination, Georgia draws inspiration from the architecture and atmosphere of the American South. Beyond incorporating residential, commercial, retail, and lifestyle components, it supports the distinct character of Ilonggos while sustaining their entrepreneurial spirit.

The master planned development is composed of three districts named after historic cities in Georgia. Atlanta will serve as the commercial center, featuring a Vista Mall, a hotel, and vertical villages called Augusta Residences. Savannah is the residential node, with a house-and-lot community, St. John’s Wort International School, a football field, and St. Padre Pio Church. Augusta will embody the Southern lifestyle through condominium properties and curated retail and dining concepts. These together form a cohesive ecosystem where culture, commerce, and community intersect.

Supporting EmpowHER were partners Avon, GR8LIFE, the Iloilo Mobile Food Community, and Carboot Bazaar Community. Vista Land business affiliates, St. John’s Wort Integrated School, Golden Haven, and  Vista Mall, also participated in the event.
