Spotlight: coastal living in Bohol
Beachfront lots, slow mornings, and a growing base of retirees and remote workers: a look at the province next door.
Ana Reyes · Goodwill Realty & Property Management
A ferry ride from Cebu, Bohol has everything the busy city buyer is looking for once they're ready to slow down, at a fraction of the coastal prices further south.
Beachfront without the resort premium
While headline beachfront markets have climbed, Bohol's coast still offers lot sizes and price points that let buyers build the home they actually want, not the one a developer already built.
Who's moving there now
Retirees, remote workers, and second-home owners are the new demand engine. They bring steady cash buyers and a rental market that thrives on the short-stay travel Cebu feeds it daily.
Bohol is Cebu's backyard, and backyards are where people quietly build their futures.
It's early enough that the sensible lots are still the affordable ones. That window won't stay open forever.
