The Philippines is one of the most popular expat destinations in Asia. Some expats go as far as calling the country their second home. With the allure of our stunning beaches, hospitable locals, affordable cost of living, thriving economy, and the country’s increasing participation in world affairs, it’s no wonder why many have fallen in love with the Philippines.
While any place in the country can be called home, expats have a preference in flying into Metro Manila for long-term or permanent residency because of the convenience it offers. To be specific, Bay City stands out among the rest of the locations within the Metro, making it one of the most highly sought-after locations in Manila.
Central Business District
Bay City is the area located along Roxas Boulevard and Manila-Cavite Expressway. It covers a shared area of Manila, Pasay, and Paranaque. Today, Bay City is projected to be the next most important central business district (CBD).
According to real estate consultancy firm Colliers International Philippines, Bay City has a low vacancy rate. This is due to the influx of Chinese nationals relocating in Bay City. This brings along a higher demand for condominium units as their Chinese-owned companies are securing residential units for their employees. Also located within the area are several Business Process Outsourcing (BPOs) and multinational companies that employ thousands of workers, both local and expats.
This growing appetite for office and residential spaces is driving many property developers to ramp up construction in the area.
Improved Transport Infrastructure
Navigating around Bay City and other parts of Manila has become easier and more convenient, thanks to the construction of NAIA Expressway (NAIAX). Bay City is now more accessible from NAIA’s three terminals, Metro Manila Skyway, and other central business districts.
Even more so, once the NLEX-SLEX Connector is completed, traveling from Bay City to the north and south sections of Metro Manila will be reduced from the usual two-hour travel time to only 20 minutes.
Entertainment Center
With the presence of the Mall of Asia (MOA), MOA Arena, Solaire Casino, Resorts World, City of Dreams Manila, and Ayala Mall Bay Area, entertainment won’t fall short in Bay City. In fact, Bay City is growing to be the next Las Vegas of Southeast Asia due to the presence of the many entertainment centers, resort hotels, and casinos. One doesn’t have to go far to have fun.
Beyond Basics
The real estate choices available in the area prove that it can cater to even the fanciest taste of an urban dweller.
Anchor Land is currently building Copeton Baysuites, its third residential project in Bay City. Copeton Baysuites is more than your typical place of residence. It will rise to offer upscale amenities and low-density residential areas that will redefine the standard of urban living in Bay City. Ultra-luxury is what it stands for.

Copeton Baysuites will rise next to City of Dreams Manila and Ayala Mall Bay Area, located at a prime address near other world-class developments in Bay City.
Chase Sunrise and Sunsets
Despite living in one of the most urbanized parts of Metro Manila, seeing the sun rise and set every day is a sight to behold. Since Bay City is just a stone’s throw away from Manila Bay, one can chase the sunrise and sunset every day while indulging in the many restaurants and bars that sprawl around the city. Residents can even choose to enjoy a cup of coffee while cruising on a yacht by the bay.
All these can be yours at Copeton Baysuites, with its strategic location at the heart of Bay City. As an expat, living in another country should be all about ease, comfort, and security. Copeton Baysuites gives you all those and so much more.
