Guests come for casino nights, fine dining (including names like Mott 32 and Il Primo Steakhouse), MICE events, shopping, and a full leisure stay minutes from SM Seaside. NUSTAR Resort and Casino is one of the best luxury entertainment destinations in Cebu City for travelers seeking gaming, five-star hospitality, and an all-in resort experience without leaving Metro Cebu.

Editorial review
It’s actually more like a mall than just a resort — there are casinos, good restaurants, shops, and plenty of places to explore. NUSTAR is a great spot if you want dining, entertainment, and a bit of everything in one place.
