Aruga Resort and Residences-Mactan expands its coastal community, where every window meets the sea
Aruga Resort and Residences -Mactan is redefining how life unfolds by the shore.
Set on 5.2 hectares along Punta Engaño’s leisure strip, this emerging community in Mactan, Cebu offers a refreshing perspective on coastal living as it brings Rockwell’s distinct brand of elegance, exclusivity, and community into a resort setting.
From concept to coastline, Rockwell’s vision is now taking form—a destination defined by space, calm, and quiet sophistication and anchored by 270 meters of private beachfront designed for leisure and modern living.
A community coming to life
Now, that vision of serene coastal living is unfolding before the shores of Mactan.
Aruga Resort and Residences is steadily coming to life as an integrated seaside community of premium residential offerings.
Its first residential tower, which rises 22 stories high, is nearing completion and will soon welcome its first homeowners. Once they move in, residents will readily experience the warmth offered by this coastal sanctuary, where every detail, feature, and space reflect the familiar comforts of Rockwell living.
For instance, the lobby and common areas, which are already completed, were designed to be refined yet warm, welcoming residents into an atmosphere that feels instantly familiar.
A thoughtful suite of amenities, meant to bring ease and balance to their daily lives, will offer inviting spaces to unwind, connect and recharge—from the library and lounges meant for quiet moments, the dining room for intimate gatherings, the gym and wellness spa for well-being, to the game room for time shared with family and friends.
The beachfront, once just a beautiful architectural render on paper, can now become part of the residents’ daily routines as they can easily walk along this 270-meter beachfront stretch. This will allow them to rediscover the timeless allure of Mactan, with its fresh salty breeze and crystal clear waters, while watching a masterplanned community gradually take shape.
Adding to this sense of ease and exclusivity, residents can also arrive in style through the jetty dock located at the North Breakwater—a private gateway that offers convenient boat access for pick-ups and drop-offs. Whether it’s a weekend escape or a return to their coastal home, residents can journey to their paradise seamlessly.
Warm reception
Such a lifestyle is made even more distinct by the well-appointed residences, as each unit here opens up to sweeping views of Hilutungan Channel and Magellan Bay, and has been designed with Rockwell’s careful balance of space, light, and proportion.
It’s thus unsurprising to see the warm reception for the first tower of Aruga Resort and
Residences–Mactan. The strong take-up of units—which range from a one-bedroom to a four-bedroom cut—reaffirms the growing appeal of premier beachfront addresses that offer choice amenities, exceptional finishes, and well-planned layouts, all brought together in homes built with Rockwell’s renowned quality.
The next chapter
Building on this success, Rockwell now introduces the next phase: a second residential tower that will open more homes along Mactan’s most sought-after shoreline.
Designed with single-loaded corridors and a low-density layout of only three to seven residences per floor, each home opens toward the sea, bringing natural light and openness into daily life. The architecture favors proportion over scale, creating larger, more fluid spaces that mirror the ease of the setting.
Complementing the first tower’s amenities, the new tower offers residents direct access to their own amenity spaces—featuring a lap pool, lounges, gym, and function areas—allowing the ease of seaside living to flow effortlessly into each day.
For discerning investors and homeowners, the second tower presents a new opportunity to be part of a close-knit coastal community defined by Rockwell’s signature quality and framed by Mactan’s stunning seascape. While the strong demand for the first tower affirmed Cebu’s appetite for premium leisure homes, this second tower now builds on that confidence.
A life unfolding by the sea
For those who’ve long aspired to live by the shore without compromising on modern creature comforts, Aruga Resort and Residences–Mactan makes that aspiration real. Here, the idea of home extends beyond the walls and into the sea, providing a laidback coastal lifestyle that bears the unmistakable Rockwell touch.
Indeed, Aruga Resort and Residences–Mactan offers the kind of residences that tell you: some dreams are meant to be lived.
