WITH
its beautiful beaches, tropical climate and relaxed urban lifestyle,
Cebu City, the Queen City of the South and the oldest city in the
Philippines, has become a much sought-after haven for foreign retirees,
drawing the international crowd like bees to flowers. Cebuanos are known
to be the most hospitable and caring people in the country. No wonder
that a lot of foreigners now live in the city for business and leisure.
Add here the Mactan International Airport, which has international
flights to Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, Korea, Japan and
China.
Now, another industry
that is growing in the city is real estate. Over the years, more people
are moving to Cebu due to the presence of new developments like the
prestigious Marco Polo Residences and the Southern gem, which have made
Cebu an even more attractive place to live in.
On
top of the beautiful and overlooking city of Cebu located at the Nivel
Hills in Apas is the famous Marco Polo Plaza Hotel. The establishment
opened in 2006 after Metrobank, the biggest bank in the country,
acquired the property from the owners of the Cebu Plaza, which ceased
operations in 2003. Since its inauguration, the Marco Polo Plaza Hotel
has become the favorite venue for family events and vacation destination
for both the locals and foreign visitors.
Now,
five residential buildings next to the hotel are being built and they
will rise in the next few years—The Marco Polo Residences. The units in
Tower 1 have been sold out two months after they were launched, while 75
percent of Towers 2 and 3 have been sold. The investment on this
project is between P15 billion and P20 billion, according to Alfred Ty,
president of Federal Land.
“The
Marco Polo Hotel is very dear to the Cebuanos. It’s sentimental to
them. This is where they had their special and memorable events. The
intention of the residences is to have the hotel amenities for the
homeowners,” said Ty. “The unending stories I hear are nostalgic, and
the Marco Polo Residences will make us closer to the community.”
Ty
further shared, “We are encouraged by the strong market response. It
was exciting to see the response of foreign and local retirees from
abroad.”
With a
name that is globally prominent in the hotel and hospitality sector, the
Marco Polo Residences has since become an ideal investment among
foreign retirees and expats settling in Cebu. Following the successful
unveiling of its first two towers, a third structure will soon rise
within the premises of the Marco Polo Residences.
The
third tower, dubbed as the Marco Polo Parkview Residences, is a highly
anticipated addition to this exclusive community located at Nivel Hills
in Cebu. Federal Land Inc., the premier property developer behind this
luxury development, is pleased to report a favorable take-up since its
launch.
The Marco
Polo Parkview Residences is envisioned to become a fancy retreat for the
upscale market. Its members-only club shall serve as a playground for
the cosmopolitan crowd. Here, they can indulge to their heart’s content
in the pleasures of appointed features such as a lap pool, fully
equipped fitness center, spa, private theater and tennis court.
The
Marco Polo Residences sets itself apart from its peers in the local
property sector with its world-class facilities and services that
synthesize Asian hospitality with Western innovations. The legendary
brand of Marco Polo also gives it a unique distinction from other luxury
high-rise developments in the market.
Residents
of the Marco Polo Residences can enjoy access to the Marco Polo Hotel
and its hotel amenities and services. These include food and beverage
signing privilege; concierge, room, business center and laundry
services; apartment cleaning, servicing and maintenance; and priority
access to the swimming pool, gym and the wellness zone. Apart from the
stunning view, the charm of the Marco Polo Residences lies in its
five-star hotel-like amenities, well-appointed units and first-class
services. Each unit was designed to exude contemporary, stylish living
suited for the distinct tastes of its residents.
The
hotel-like ambiance cascades to the common areas with its grand ground
floor lobby and drop-off. Security is a top priority with CCTV system,
automatic fire suppression system, fire detection alarm system, stand-by
generator for both common and residential units, and 24-hour security
and maintenance personnel.
