Beach escapes are no longer reserved for summer. Life in the city has made weekend getaways and holiday retreats not indulgences but necessities—an essential return to equilibrium, a deliberate pause from the noise.
SM Leisure Resort Residences (SM LRR), a unit of SM Prime Holdings, Inc. (SM Prime), presents Pico Terraces as a permanent address for that much-needed pause—a multi-tower mid-rise residential development set within a sprawling 2.3-hectare enclave at Hamilo Coast in Batangas.
With 80% of the land devoted to open space, Pico Terraces creates a setting that balances seclusion and a lasting connection to the environment. Completion is expected by December 2027.
Situated within Pico de Loro Cove, Pico Terraces is an easy eight-minute walk to Pico Beach, and just six minutes to both the Beach Club and the Country Club.
It has 211 thoughtfully designed residences across Ardea Suites and Balea Suites, and features a range of one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts—each tailored to support different lifestyles.
“Pico Terraces is designed for families and individuals seeking a balanced lifestyle with forested landscapes as their constant backdrop,” said Shirley C. Ong, Executive Vice President and Business Unit Head of SM LRR. “It places you far enough to truly disconnect yet close enough to come and go with ease.”
Just two hours from Metro Manila and 72 kilometers from the SM Mall of Asia, Pico Terraces makes mountain and sea equally accessible—ideal for spontaneous getaways or extended stays.
Arriving at Pico de Loro Cove, residents and guests enter a private world of leisure, wellness and discovery.
Pico Terraces provides a curated suite of resort-style amenities that transform everyday rituals into moments of quiet indulgence. At its heart is a 500-square meter cascading pool complex with dedicated zones for laps, family time and serene lounging.
For those drawn to active movement, the estate includes a nature trail, an outdoor fitness lawn, a fully equipped indoor gym and a multi-purpose green—ideal for yoga, weekend matches or casual open-air gatherings.
Residents and their guests can unwind in the private theater or enjoy casual competition in the game room. A clubhouse with al fresco dining pavilions, BBQ stations and a landscaped events garden ensures hosting—whether for family milestones or impromptu sunset dinners—is always an elegant affair.
Ownership at Pico Terraces also includes access to the Pico de Loro Beach and Country Club, where experiences unfold across land and sea—from coastal dives and kayaking to nature safaris, camping and indoor pursuits like basketball, bowling and pickleball.
With a dedicated shuttle service linking Pico Terraces to the rest of Pico de Loro Cove, every experience—from beachside recreation to exclusive club privileges—is only minutes away.
“Pico Terraces is a premium coastal development that moves to the rhythm of nature— unhurried, grounded and deeply attuned to how people truly want to live today,” added Ong.
