Here's a list of places for long stay in Cebu City 2013.

Santinos Place. Most beautiful place I've seen so far in Cebu.

New modern fully furnished with kitchen, stove, serviced apartment - in walking distance to Ayala 15-20 minute. Have 1-2-3 bedroom apartments. However there's a catch - Pre Payment.

For 1 month stay they ask 1 month + 1 month.

1 BR for 1 month stay Php30.800 w/shower - or 33.000 w/bathtub.

1 BR for 3 months or longer - hold on - copy from email received:

If you lease for three months, this would be the required payment prior to move-in:

Security Deposit (2 months) - Php 56,000

Advance Rent (last month) - Php 28,000

First Month's Rent                - Php 28,000

Total - Php 112,000 - Ouccchhhh !

Strawberry residence, second to Santonis.

New modern fully furnished, with kitchen and electric plate, but a step down from Santonis.  Comes with a small pool.

1-bedroom P25,000/month

2-bedroom P30,000/month

3-bedroom P35,000/month

Pre payment, I've been asked to pay 1 month rent + 1 month advanced, another time they asked me only Php 10000 in addition to 1 month rent. Seems room for bargaining here.

Premiere Citi suites. Corner of Juana Osmena, 10 minute walk to nightlife area Mango. Come highly reccommended by many. Built 2011 with modern nice rooms. Booking however is always a problem, they messed up my booking 3 - three times. They also have the habbit to force you to change room under your stay. Weak Internet, rooms front side is noisy every morning from traffic / taxi's. Curtain is slim so sun comes into the room 5.30 AM, Before ranked number 7 on tripadvisor, presently number 11.  Book far ahead, or they are fully booked. Nice hotel if they could just make bookings problem free. Monthly rates was Php 30.000 +- last time I asked. Check rates.

Apartelle De Arcenas. For some reason this place come reccommended by many expats. When I was there I found it less desireable. Far from main road, partly muddy road, wouldn't like walking there after dark either. Apartments had nice exterior but I think interior was very old (ala 70's) and outdated. They also received some comments about padding the electricity bill. Has security and tall gates, apartment has kitchen with gas stove. Rooms furnitures was just to old for my liking. However many expats disagree, so take a look yourself.

1 BR Php 18000-20000

2 BR Php 25000

3 BR Php 30000

One month deposit and one month advance on check in,

Golden Peak Hotel. Only if you are on a tight budget. Gorordo Avenue, 10 minute walk to Ayala in a safe area 24/7. Stayed there before. Bed bugs (still have marks) small TV, old room in high demand for modernizing, management who couldn't care less.

 

Monthly rate Php 25000 at check in, no deposit, no advanced, only the rent at check in.

That's the only good thing about this place + located near Ayala.
