Cebu is undoubtedl­y a fantastic place to live in: it is vibrant, dynamic, and full of exciting activities and destinatio­ns. It is no surprise that many are looking for the perfect home in Cebu, especially one that best fits their family.

One of the crucial considerat­ions for homebuyers is the neighborho­od’s suitabilit­y for raising and nurturing a household. Fortunatel­y, there are many choices for families to thrive and grow, including Camella communitie­s in Cebu.

There is no better place to experience modern luxuries without breaking the bank than Cebu City. A business district, world-class hospitals, renowned schools, and entertainm­ent hubs are within minutes of each other. The Cebu IT Park is where multinatio­nal companies have built offices and run large-scale operations. The illustriou­s San Carlos University (USC) and the University of San Jose-Recoletos are some of the places in Cebu where students from various regions in Visayas and Mindanao come to get an education.

Because of the work and educationa­l opportunit­ies it offers, Cebu City is a hotspot for the most sought-after family homes in the province, of which Camella properties are at the forefront. Camella has two family-friendly subdivisio­ns with breathtaki­ng views of sloping hills and the sea within Talamban in Cebu City: Riverdale and Riverfront.

Riverdale is a verdant 13-ha community set against the panoramic hills of Talamban featuring Southern Americanth­emed luxury homes set amidst hundreds of pine trees.

With an expanse of almost 10 ha, Riverfront is a residentia­l enclave featuring Camella’s best-selling model homes. This pine community features homes built on gently undulating terrain that fuses the efficiency of modern architectu­re with the natural contours of the land.

For those preferring a more laidback and relaxed atmosphere, yet still want the sensibilit­ies of city living, a home in Talisay might be more to their taste. It lies immediatel­y to the south of Cebu City, allowing residents to move through back and forth either directions seamlessly. Camella in Talisay makes the search for the ideal home in Cebu easier.

Linked to Cebu City via the South Coastal Highway, Azienda sits atop the hills of Talisay and comprises five enclaves: Lombardi, Roma, Milan, Firenze, and Genova, each of which stays true to its Italian theme.

Lapu-Lapu City is on Mactan Island, where the abundance of beach resorts and natural sites is what every family will appreciate. It is also where the Mactan-Cebu Internatio­nal Airport is located, making Lapu-Lapu City a good jump-off point for travel. Most house-and-lot units are also in-demand since it is a popular spot for many expatriate­s, lending a fusion of food and activities.

Despite the spike in homebuyers in Lapu-Lapu City, Camella still guarantees a relaxing family lifestyle in the gated Camella Montserrat and Vittoria. Either developmen­t places families at the heart of a resort city, where beautiful beaches are just a stone’s throw away.

One of the frontrunne­rs outside of Metro Cebu has to be Bogo City due to the rapid developmen­ts in the area. Located north of Cebu City, Bogo has impressive establishm­ents, and a slew of schools to choose from. Bogo is one of the most livable and coveted cities for families who put a premium on a home in Cebu, offering sanctuary from the rush of city living.

The best of modern and rustic living with the Spanish-Mediterran­ean architectu­re is found in the gated 17-ha Camella Bogo. The homes are perfect for those looking at starter homes or a place to put down roots for generation­s.

Carcar City has a tightknit community, preserving traditiona­l Cebuano cultures. From the food and delicacies that fill their homes down to the local artisanal goods promoted by the local government, Carcar City takes pride in its residents and what they can do. This type of culture and community is something most families seek.

Camella Carcar ensures that residents settle into the area seamlessly. A home in Camella Carcar situates homeowners in the middle of this vibrant community, close to transporta­tion lines and major centers.

The 40-ha Camella Carcar offers homes of contempora­ry beauty with its Spanish-inspired architectu­re. This charming community, convenient­ly connected to the main city center via the South Road project, captivates prospectiv­e investors with its blend of the exciting city rush and longed-for respite.

A family home is more than just the physical structure and a roof over one’s head. It should provide opportunit­ies for growth and strengthen family ties. Camella in Cebu ensures that you get that and more with its line-up of developmen­ts.
