Anyone who has seen vignettes of life in Italy would want to keep coming back for more.
After all, isn’t Italy a dream that keeps returning for the rest of your life?
But what if you can actually bring home that Italian flair to your life here in your very own home country?
Villar-owned Brittany offers its Portofino communities in Vista Alabang. The development is an upscale Italian-inspired enclave nestled on a 1,500-hectare master-planned community.
Portofino offers lots with bigger cuts—up to 1,000 square meters, an abundance of open spaces, low density and a lifestyle one can’t have just anywhere. The community itself boasts of commercial areas, business park, medical facilities and prime universities.
Portofino Heights & Portofino South
Portofino Heights has 75 hectares while Portofino South has 50 hectares and these developments sit on a vast 300-hectare estate south of Manila, which brings to Manila that old world Italian charm and the contemporary chic of modern Europe.
Amenities
Residents can enjoy a wide array of amenities. One can lounge by or take a dip in the swimming pools, sweat it out in the fitness gym, celebrate life’s precious moments and milestones in the grand function room, play badminton or beat friends or family members in a highly charged tennis game in the tennis court. Boys who want the quintessential Filipino sport meanwhile can settle their scores in the basketball court.
Your homes are ready
There are also limited ready-for-occupancy units for those who wish to change their lifestyle settings to a suburban, sprawling environment.

Multi-awarded
Brittany’s Portofino has been widely recognized, a testament to the brand’s quality.
Portofino was recognized as The Best Premium House of the Year on Nov. 15, 2018 at The Outlook 2018: Philippines Buyers’ Choice Awards and Best Housing Development in Metro Manila & Philippines at the Philippines Property Awards 2014.
The promise of la dolce vita
Indeed, with Portofino, you can enjoy the promise of la dolce vita or “the good life” without necessarily traveling all the way to Europe.
You can plant your own mini version of Italy’s vineyards in the garden, play the music of Vivaldi in your living room, enjoy a sumptuous pasta dish with the whole family and, for dessert, devour on a homemade gelato right in your very own kitchen.
In this Italian-inspired enclave, la dolce vita is just right home.
