Villa del Rio Mactan
Babag, Mactan City, Cebu


Historic Mactan seems to possess it all—world-class beach resorts, an international airport, a well-known casino, a vibrant export zone. But until now, the island lacked a living space worthy of its multi-faceted qualities. Villa del Rio Mactan fills this gap, drawing on Mactan's vitality then infusing its unique version of serenity. At Villa Del Rio Mactan, the perfect getaway simply means going home.

East Aurora Tower
Villa Aurora, Kasambagan, Mabolo, Cebu

East Aurora Tower ensures all the qualities of high-end condominium living are present—a prime location that is a stone's throw away from shopping centers, schools, and churches along with 24-hour security. Yet it does not forget that, in the end, it is still what you will call home. The elegant lobby is contrasted by the hominess of oak flooring in the bedroom and the restful view from its much-praised roof deck gazebo.

North Singson Flats
Guadalupe, Cebu

North Singson Flats grants you the accessibility, comfort, and luxury of the latter, but in the form of three-storey and studio-type units. The first of its kind in the region, these flats are designed for dwellers who want to watch the sunset from their very own balcony, who desire the homey familiarity of being able to walk straight to your front door without the aloofness of having to enter an elevator.

 

 

Company History

1992

CEI is incorporated in June 1, primarily as a joint effort between Primary Structures Corporation (PSC) and MATIMCO, two established Cebu-based enterprises—the former an important force in construction, the latter a leader in the lumber and wood industry. Both companies envision high-quality but reasonably priced low- to middle-cost housing developments for Cebuano dwellers.

The Villa del Rio Project—a four-phase, 400-unit development spread out over five hectares—is successfully launched. The five types of housing units (Palacios, Turriano , Hidalgo , Amorsolo, and Sedeño) generate exceptional word-of-mouth, especially due to its pre-cast concrete technology and distinctive subdivision layout and affordable prices.

   
1993 CEI forms a subsidiary, Common Bacayan Development Corp (CBDC), to develop Phases 2 and 3 of Villa del Rio . CEI remains the developer of Phases 1 and 4; it also retains overall marketing duties for the entire project.
   
1996

PSC assumes full ownership of CEI as MATIMCO divests to focus on its core businesses. The new CEI board decides to develop high-rise condominiums for urban dwellers. The undertaking complements CEI's existing subdivision projects. Thus, the reorganization results in the following corporate structure:

  • East Apex Properties, Inc. (EAPI) — incorporated to focus on vertical development (high-rises) and high-end housing units
  • CBDC — responsible for horizontal development (subdivisions)
  • CEI — becomes the marketing arm of the group
   
1997 The model unit of East Aurora Tower is unveiled as part of an 18-storey residential condominium project developed by EAPI. By situating itself in a prime location at Villa Aurora, Mabolo, Cebu City —an accessible site located in a good neighborhood— East Aurora Tower , with its four parking lots, is able to distinguish itself from the construction frenzy of the time.
   
1998

East Aurora Tower is completed despite a regional economic crisis the previous year that forces other developers to delay or altogether abandon their projects.

Villa del Rio 2 at Pit-os, Talamban, Cebu City, developed by CBDC, is launched. The development comprises over 250 housing units spread over four hectares of land covering five phases.

   
1999

Within a year of the Villa del Rio 2 launch, nearly 80% of the Villa del Rio 2 housing units are sold.

Riding the momentum of the success of Villa del Rio I and II, Garden Bloom Acres, with over 300 housing units spread out over a five-hectare property in Pitogo, Consolacion, Cebu , is successfully launched. It is an impressive display of versatility by CEI as an entirely new market is tapped with the unveiling of Garden Bloom Acres. More affordable than the Villa del Rio developments, Garden Bloom Acres demonstrates that CEI is equally adept at building both middle- and high-end housing communities.
