Club Ultima at Crown Regency Hotel and Towers

The resort and its setting

Club Ultima is the timeshare component of Crown Regency Hotel and Towers, a lodging property at 819 Osmeña Blvd in the heart of Cebu City. This is a city-centre address rather than a beach resort, which suits owners and renters whose priority is being close to Cebu's commercial core rather than a stretch of sand. The property currently holds a 3.8 out of 5 rating from 265 Google reviews, which is worth factoring into expectations on both sides of a resale or rental deal — it's a reasonably well-established property, but reviews are mixed, so buyers should read recent feedback before committing.

Cebu City and things to do

Cebu City is the oldest city in the Philippines and the main gateway to the central Visayas, with a working port, an international airport nearby, and a mix of colonial-era landmarks and modern shopping and business districts. Osmeña Boulevard itself runs close to the historic core, so owners and guests staying at Club Ultima are within easy walking or short tricycle/taxi distance of churches, museums and heritage sites, as well as the newer malls and restaurant strips that have grown up around the city centre. Cebu is also the usual jumping-off point for day trips to the island's beaches, waterfalls, and whale shark and sardine run excursions further south, making a city-centre base useful for travellers who want to combine urban time with side trips rather than staying put at a resort strip.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Club Ultima and are ready to move it on, or just want it to generate some income, BidMyTimeshare.com lets you list it directly as a private, owner-to-owner resale or rental. You set your own asking price, buyers and renters contact you through the platform, and there's no agency commission on the sale — you simply pay a one-time listing fee to list the week. This keeps more of the value in your pocket than going through a traditional timeshare resale broker.

Before you set a price, it's worth getting the paperwork straight. Crown Regency's own owners' association or management office handles the formal transfer of ownership for Club Ultima weeks, so sellers should contact them directly to confirm the current transfer or resale fee, whether the resort holds a right of first refusal on resales, and how long a transfer typically takes to process. These details aren't published figures we can quote here, so ask Crown Regency for written confirmation before you agree a price with a buyer — it protects both sides and avoids surprises at closing. The same applies to annual maintenance fees: confirm the current amount with the resort rather than relying on what a previous owner paid, since these fees are reviewed and can change from year to year.

Club Ultima participates in the RCI exchange network, which is a genuine selling point worth highlighting in your listing — buyers interested in the flexibility to trade their week for stays elsewhere will want this confirmed as part of the sale, including whether your specific week and unit type carries exchange rights.

For renters, the appeal of this resort is straightforward: a central Cebu City base without the commitment of ownership. Owners renting out a week should be upfront in their listing about unit size, view, floor level and exact week/season, since that's what renters compare most closely when choosing between city-centre options.

Practical notes for buyers and renters

Anyone researching a resale purchase or a rental here should ask the current owner or the resort directly what exactly transfers with the week. This typically includes usage rights and, where applicable, RCI exchange affiliation, but may not include outstanding fees, so get a clear statement of account before any money changes hands. Given the location on Osmeña Boulevard, this is a resort geared towards travellers who want city access first and resort amenities second, so it's worth setting expectations accordingly, especially in light of the current review rating.
