An Athlete’s House envisioned to enhance the training of elite national athletes who are honing their skills for national and international competitions is now open at the Ayala Vermosa Sports Hub inside Vermosa Estate in Imus, Cavite.
The 30-room athletes’ accommodations built on the spacious Sports Hub grounds of the 752-hectare Ayala Land estate – was officially inaugurated last July 10, with the groundbreaking of the Athletics Center Dugout taking place right after.

meters track oval, a multi-sport open field, an indoor fitness facility equipped with a sports science laboratory and is one of the three football pitches in the country with a valid FIFA certification.

The bathrooms have a three-way feature to enable three persons to use the shower, toilet, and vanity area simultaneously. Aside from the room amenities, there are other offers such as a marketplace, open bar and lounge that guests will enjoy. The best part is the training facilities and gym are just a few meters away.
