The renowned luxury property developer set its sights on environmental work in Cebu City just weeks after officially launching Shang Bauhinia Residences there. Shang Bauhinia, rising along Bauhinia Drive in Banilad district, is SPI’s first foray into Cebu City.

With this offering, SPI seeks to transform the Cebu City skyline and enhance Cebuanos’ lifestyle. Shang Bauhinia Residences will be a towering presence in the city with a height of 52 stories, but its aesthetic value will also be unmissable with SPI enlisting the expertise of Hong Kong-based P&T Group, Italian firm FM Architettura and the Philippines Casas + Architects for the project’s design direction.

Shang Bauhinia Residences will deliver SPI’s signature comfort, luxury and exclusivity through various unit types. It will offer the traditional studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units; but will push the envelope even further with its pioneering dual-residence concept. There are less than a hundred of these Signature Units—two- and three-bedroom units offering elevated experiences.

Residents will enjoy stylish resort-like amenities at Shang Bauhinia Residences. The development has 3,800 sqm of indoor and outdoor spaces allocated to amenities: a tropical pool, greenery, fitness and wellness facilities, coworking spaces, private dining rooms, function spaces, etc.

The Signature Units will have exclusive access to the Signature Lounge. It has gardens, indoor and outdoor lounge spaces, a library, a swimming pool, fitness facilities, workspaces and more.
