The setting of Minglanilla Highlands — cool mountain air above Cebu

Master plan · Palafox Associates · 2017

The Place

Built around a single conviction: a home should give back more than it asks for.

“A township must breathe. It must hold its residents, its visitors, its future. Minglanilla Highlands is planned as a place that holds.”

Felino “Jun” Palafox Jr., Palafox Associates

Twenty-five hectares above the Cebu plain. Four phases unfolding over the next decade. Around 1,100 homes, a working farm, a chapel, three swimming pools, gardens that grow food.

We chose this site for three reasons: the elevation, the breeze, the view back toward Cebu City on a clear night. Palafox designed the master plan around those three things. We built the houses around the plan.

Setting & Location

Cooler air, slower mornings, a view back toward the city.

Minglanilla Highlands sits 150 meters above sea level, fifteen minutes south of Cebu City. The temperature drops. The light softens. The city still feels close, but the noise does not.

Mountain resort living

Six small things, done right.

We did not try to list every amenity. We picked the ones that change how a day feels.

Sunrise

First light over the ridge

Breeze

Air that does not ask for a fan

Garden

A working orchard, not a lawn

Walk

A trail behind every block

Neighbors

A community that waves back

Evening

Cooler air, slower hours

Amenities

Designed for residents, not brochures.

A three-level pool, infinity edge, a boardwalk, gardens that grow food. Every amenity is something you will use on a Tuesday, not a tour.

Landscaped parks and gardens

Basketball, tennis, mini-golf

Clubhouse and country club

Pedestrian lanes and orchards

The Shrine

A chapel that gives the township its center.

“A township needs a place where the noise stops. We built ours first.”

The Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal rises twenty-six feet at the heart of the master plan, a pilgrimage site that doubles as a wedding chapel, a meditation garden, and the quietest seat on the property.
