Grade A Office Space for Sale & Lease: One Mandani Bay Cebu

Premium Office Space for Rent and Sale in Mandaue City, Cebu

One Mandani Bay stands as the premier corporate centerpiece within a massive 20-hectare master-planned waterfront township development in Metro Cebu. As a premium Grade A office building in Cebu, this 30-storey architectural marvel marks a significant structural shift in the region. It transitions Mandaue City from its historic industrial roots into a highly sought-after, progressive commercial and cultural district. Designed specifically to meet global corporate benchmarks, the tower serves as an elite business hub tailored for multinational corporations, institutional occupiers, and scaling local enterprises searching for world-class workspaces.

Strategic Commercial Property Location in Metro Cebu

The tower is strategically positioned along F.E. Zuellig Avenue within the rapidly expanding North Reclamation Area of Mandaue City, Cebu. This prime waterfront location overlooks the Mactan Channel, offering tenants wide panoramic vistas stretching across Cebu, Lapu-Lapu, and Mandaue.

Logistically, the location provides superior connectivity for daily operations. Key institutional hubs—including Cebu Doctors’ University, UCMed, Chong Hua Hospital, and Parkmall—are reachable within minutes. For retail access, SM City Cebu is a brief eight-minute drive away. Most importantly for global companies, the Mactan-Cebu International Airport is accessible within fifteen minutes.

To future-proof the development against tropical weather challenges, the complex incorporates an advanced flood management layout. The main service road running parallel to F.E. Zuellig Avenue is built exactly two meters above the main highway, providing a secure, elevated buffer zone for incoming and outgoing traffic.

Trusted Joint Venture Developers: HTLand Inc.

The project is executed by HTLand, Inc., a powerhouse joint venture formed in 2015. The partnership bridges the global portfolio management expertise of Hongkong Land—a leading international property investment and development group—with the deep regional development knowledge of Taft Properties, the real estate arm of Cebu’s prominent Vicsal Development Corporation. The broader master plan for the surrounding waterfront township was orchestrated by the internationally acclaimed Crone Architects.

Iconic Architectural Design & First Impressions

Architecturally, the 30-storey tower balances sustainability with striking corporate visual design. The building features a full 100 percent glass curtain wall system that optimizes natural light penetration while utilizing a “riverflow” aesthetic that mirrors its proximity to the Mactan Channel. At night, the tower features custom, integrated architectural facade lighting, distinguishing it on the Metro Cebu skyline.

Arrival at the property is defined by a distinct, canopied porte cochère that ensures privacy and convenient drop-offs for executive tenants and guests. Visitors step into a grand 500-square-meter, double-height main lobby enclosed entirely in structural glass. This versatile space features a dedicated café lounge and is structurally scaleable to host corporate events, vehicle showcases, and art exhibits.

Flexible Office Spaces for Rent & Modular Corporate Layouts

To accommodate diverse operational footprints, One Mandani Bay houses 217 modern office units ranging from flexible 80-square-meter startup modules to expansive 345-square-meter corporate spaces. The building’s structural grid allows for highly customizable, modifiable floor plates where businesses can merge adjacent modules to occupy full floors spanning up to 2,382 square meters.

The tower categorizes its commercial inventory across three target tiers:

• Penthouse Floors: Premium top-tier units optimized for multinational headquarters, featuring unbroken waterfront views.
• Premium Floors: Intermediate corporate layouts designed for mid-to-large institutions.
• Standard Floors: Highly versatile modular layouts perfect for scaling local businesses and regional offices.

Shared common spaces are embedded across every level to foster professional networking and collaboration. Furthermore, the entire 7th floor is explicitly isolated from standard office operations and dedicated to shared executive boardrooms, meeting facilities, and corporate function halls. Vertical transit is handled seamlessly by a core system consisting of nine high-speed passenger elevators and one heavy-duty service elevator.

PEZA Accredited Office Space & Sustainable BERDE Certification

For enterprises seeking long-term operational efficiency and financial advantages, the tower delivers institutional-grade infrastructure compliance:

• Tax Incentives: The tower is fully accredited by the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA), enabling fiscal and non-fiscal incentives for qualifying BPO locators and foreign corporations.
• Green Building Certified: It is registered under the Philippine Green Building Council’s BERDE program, capturing a prestigious 5-star BERDE rating—a historic green benchmark for commercial developments across the Visayas and Mindanao regions.
• Eco-Efficient Features: The tower’s engineering integrates advanced wind-path optimization, precision sun-shading angles to lower HVAC costs, dedicated rainwater collection mechanisms, and systematic recycling infrastructure. These sustainable engineering achievements earned the tower the Best Office Architectural Design honor at the PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards.

Technical Specifications & Handover Conditions

The office spaces are optimized for continuous 24/7 corporate operations:

• Handover State: Units are delivered in a clean bare-shell condition featuring exposed concrete slabs and tool-jointed concrete hollow block (CHB) perimeter walls, allowing full interior personalization.
• Power Redundancy: Secured by a 100% full backup generator system capable of keeping all corporate operations online during grid outages.
• HVAC Provisions: Pre-installed mechanical connections for highly efficient Variable Refrigerant Volume (VRV) or Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) air conditioning architectures.
• Connectivity: Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) infrastructure ready, accommodating multi-provider high-speed telecommunications channels.
• Safety Infrastructure: Every unit features fully active Fire Detection and Alarm System (FDAS) points, integrated automatic wet pipe sprinklers, and round-the-clock CCTV surveillance monitoring all lobbies, elevators, and entry thresholds.

Integration into the 130 Billion PHP Waterfront Township

One Mandani Bay forms the commercial anchor of the master plan’s second phase, known as Mandani Bay Quay. This phase links the corporate tower alongside three residential high-rises (encompassing 3,325 residential units) and an expansive commercial podium. Corporate occupants enjoy immediate access to the “Active Zone”—a sprawling open-air amenity collective that includes a 50-meter lap pool, fitness gym facilities, outdoor training yards, and a multi-purpose sports hall.

The broader, 130 billion PHP township grants employees and executives pedestrian access to a 500-meter scenic waterfront boardwalk lined with retail establishments, a lush 300-meter central Green Promenade nature park, tree-lined tree avenues, and elevated, interconnected pedestrian footbridges that separate foot traffic safely away from vehicles.

Verified Construction Milestones and Safety Records

Following its formal market introduction, the construction trajectory of the tower has been characterized by outstanding civil engineering and safety execution. The tower structurally topped off alongside its sister residential structures, representing a combined phase valuation of 38 billion PHP.

The project set a safety benchmark for real estate construction in Southern Philippines by achieving over 20 million consecutive safe man-hours completely free of any lost-time incidents. This achievement earned developer HTLand, Inc. an official Safety Seal Certificate from the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE). With professional property management systems governing the building’s daily runtime, One Mandani Bay stands as a highly competitive, future-ready business address in Metro Cebu.
