Investment Opportunity
Investing in Aruga Resort by Rockwell presents a unique opportunity for both local and international buyers. Cebu has emerged as one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing tourist destinations, comparable to Bali and Thailand. With robust infrastructure development, Mactan is poised to become a hub for tourism and commerce, offering significant returns on investment.
Market Growth & Infrastructure Development
The Philippine tourism industry is on a strong upward trajectory, with international arrivals increasing year after year. In 2023, tourist arrivals reached record highs, driven by the country’s pristine beaches, rich cultural heritage, and vibrant local communities.
Government investments in tourism infrastructure—including airports, roads, and eco-parks—enhance
accessibility and further propel tourism growth. This consistent influx of tourists supports a strong rental market and reinforces the capital appreciation potential of properties in the area.
Projected Return on Investment (ROI)
One of the standout features of Aruga Resort is the income-generating potential through its serviced apartment offerings.
- Projected ROI from rental services is estimated at 8% to 12% annually, depending on unit type and market conditions.
- This return is supported by comprehensive property management services, ensuring high occupancy rates and premium pricing strategies.
With steady demand from both local and international tourists, investors can expect substantial income from short-term rentals, replicating the success of other top tourist destinations.
The strategic positioning of Aruga Resort capitalizes on the growing trend of staycations and experiential travel, further enhancing the appeal of serviced apartments
