More Than a Getaway: Cebu’s Ascent as a Destination to Visit, Live, and Invest

Sheraton Cebu Mactan Resort

Cebu has long been celebrated for its white-sand beaches, rich heritage, and trademark warmth. Today, it is stepping onto the global stage not only as a tourism hub but also as an emerging center for high-value investments and branded living. With international recognition and strong market momentum converging, Cebu is becoming one of the Philippines’ most compelling growth stories in both hospitality and real estate.

Earlier this year, the Michelin Guide expanded its Philippine hotel selection to 20 properties — a list that, unlike its famed restaurant stars, recognizes hotels and resorts for their design, service, and guest experience.

Among those honored was Sheraton Cebu Mactan Resort, owned and developed by Cebu-based AppleOne Group. For Mactan, this inclusion affirms what travelers have increasingly come to realize, that the island is no longer just a gateway destination but a contender for world-class luxury living.

At Sheraton Cebu Mactan, global standards are brought to life through the Queen City’s own natural and cultural identity. The resort preserves the massive limestone boulders found on-site, allowing the landscape itself to shape the architecture. Interiors of local wood, woven textures, and open-air spaces echo Cebuano warmth while carrying a refined, international polish.

That sense of balance is also evident in its experiences. Buhi Bar, its beachfront hub, draws guests from lively afternoons into golden-hour sunsets. Dining highlights include 5 Cien, which reimagines global flavors with Cebuano touches, and Dip, which offers a Nikkei concept that reflects Mactan’s openness to world influences.

Even in its sourcing, the resort stays rooted in community as breads are supplied by a local bakery, while the gift shop showcases Cebuano artisans, ensuring that global hospitality is anchored in local pride.

“Being included in the Michelin Guide shows how Cebu is setting new benchmarks for luxury hospitality. All of us at Sheraton Cebu Mactan are proud to help put Mactan Island on the global stage by offering experiences that are rooted in place yet world-class in execution,” said Dottie Wurgler-Cronin, General Manager, Sheraton Cebu Mactan Resort.

The recognition also comes at a time when branded residences are seeing remarkable global momentum. Data from Global Branded Residences (GBR) shows that these developments command a 30-40% premium over non-branded properties and are projected to grow by 70% worldwide in the next five years, driven by buyers’ preference for trust, quality, and lifestyle integration.

This global appetite is mirrored in the Philippines, with Cebu emerging as a clear growth driver. The 2026 Philippine Hotel Industry Outlook report by Leechiu Properties identifies the island as one of the country’s strongest markets for both tourism and real estate, sustained by resilient domestic demand and rising international arrivals, particularly from East Asia and the United States.

It is at this intersection of global recognition and market demand that The Residences at Sheraton Cebu Mactan comes into focus. Here, homeowners are not just acquiring property but are buying into the same world-class lifestyle that earned the resort its Michelin recognition. With private living spaces, exclusive access to resort-style amenities, and the credibility of the Sheraton brand, the residences carry the prestige of being part of a destination now validated on the global stage.

“The growing demand for branded residences reflects a shift in how people invest. They want both lifestyle and long-term value. With Cebu’s rise as a luxury hub, The Residences at Sheraton Cebu Mactan offers that rare balance,” said Leif Bajarias, Chief Financial Officer, AppleOne Group.

For travelers, Cebu’s ascent promises unforgettable stays. For investors and homebuyers, it signals an opportunity to be part of a destination where world-class recognition meets long-term value. With Sheraton Cebu Mactan at the forefront, Cebu is shaping its own benchmark for luxury hospitality and living, one that is proudly local yet globally celebrated.
