Since its opening in September 2022, Sheraton Cebu Mactan has become the premier destination for luxurious experiences on the island.

Situated on an 11-hectare property on Mactan Island and developed by Cebu-based AppleOne Properties, Inc., the resort embodies the vision of its owners, Ray and Venus Manigsaca, in providing a world-class resort with a distinct Filipino charm.
The 261-room beachfront Sheraton Cebu Mactan resort is part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of extraordinary brands, showcasing popular leisure destinations such as Cebu with its luxurious properties.

Dottie V. Wurgler-Cronin, Sheraton’s general manager, is dedicated to integrating local culture and heritage into the aspect of the resort. If you spot her on ground, she is often seen wearing artisanal Filipino fashion, advocating for a warm embrace of Filipino culture.
“Cebu is one of the few places in the Philippines where white-sand beaches are within the reach from a bustling historic city,” Wurgler-Cronin mentioned. “It is a place known for its heritage and natural environment, and this truly makes Sheraton Cebu Mactan Resort a tropical sanctuary to experience the authentic and heartfelt Cebuano hospitality.”
From design accents to culinary offerings, the influence of Filipino culture is evident throughout. The open-space lobby is adorned with Cebuano-inspired elements, including earth-toned furnishings, handcrafted furniture, and custom art installations by renowned Cebuano industrial designer Kenneth Cobonpue.
Sheraton Cebu Mactan’s culinary scene offers a refreshing experience with several restaurants and bars. The all-day dining restaurant, 5 Cien, features international cuisine complemented by local selections such as taho, sikwate (tablea), and other Cebuano delicacies. The newly opened DIP Nikkei restaurant is the first authentic Nikkei outlet in Cebu, offering Peruvian-Japanese dishes. Buhi Bar, a stone-carved cave fronting the beach, serves signature cocktails and contemporary drinks paired with Mediterranean dishes.
