Cebu City – NUSTAR Resort & Casino Cebu proudly unveils “Rhythms of Wellness,” a month-long celebration throughout September 2025 dedicated to holistic well-being. With the vision to establish NUSTAR as a leading wellness and lifestyle destination and a key driver for sports tourism in Cebu, this campaign aims to unite Cebu’s diverse wellness, sports, and lifestyle communities through meaningful partnerships and experiences.
“The theme ‘Rhythms of Wellness’ reflects how wellness takes many forms,” said Mr. Sean Knights, Chief Operating Officer of NUSTAR Resort & Casino Cebu. “Some days call for stride and energy, others for stillness and reflection, and others for strength and perseverance. Each weekend in September highlights a different rhythm, giving guests the chance to explore activities that match their own pace and path to well-being.”
Rhythm of Stride: NUSTAR Run Club
The wellness activities taking place over the month open on September 7, 2025, with the launch of the NUSTAR Run Club, the integrated resort’s running community set to create a new pace — and space for fitness and fun. The inaugural activity will be for the first two sign-ups. Runners will experience scenic coastal paths in and around the resort, with opportunities to connect over post-run coffee and enjoy an upbeat day-club atmosphere with music at the Lighthouse.
Rhythm of Stillness: NUSTAR Serenity in Motion
The second weekend shifts the focus inward with NUSTAR Serenity in Motion, happening September 12–14, 2025 in partnership with Dawata Wellness. Dawata is a highly regarded and widely popular yoga and wellness community, known for its expertise and commitment to holistic well-being. This three-day retreat is designed to promote mental wellness through guided activities. Guests can take part in tea rituals, meditation circles, sunrise yoga, sound baths, group healing workshops, and ocean breathwork paired with an ice bath experience and more. Participants who register on or before August 15, 2025, can take advantage of an Early Bird rate of ₱1,750 per day. Starting August 16, regular rates will apply: ₱2,000 for the first and third days, ₱2,500 for the second day, or a special bundled rate of ₱5,000 for full three-day access, per participant.
Rhythm of Strength: NUSTAR Dragon Boat Regatta
The month concludes with a show of teamwork and endurance at the NUSTAR Dragon Boat Regatta 2025 on September 20–21, 2025. In collaboration with Philippine Accessible Disability Services, Inc. (PADS) Foundation, the regatta will feature a 200-meter course set along the NUSTAR Boardwalk. Teams will compete in a range of categories, welcoming paddlers of all levels at a registration fee of Php2,500 per person. Another NUSTAR Signature, this event aims to support and promote Sports Tourism here in Cebu.
“Wellness means something different for everyone and that’s why we created Rhythms of Wellness,” said Ms. Katrina Mae de Jesus, Assistant Vice President for Business Development of NUSTAR Resort & Casino Cebu. “It’s about offering choices, from active pursuits to quiet retreats, so guests can engage in the way that suits them best. As a premier destination, we strive to innovate ethically, engage our communities meaningfully, and design events and activities that not only entertain, but endure.”
NUSTAR aims to set the tone for wellness-centered events in Cebu by combining world-class facilities with strong community partnerships. This September, NUSTAR invites everyone to discover their own rhythm of wellness. For more details, visit www.nustar.ph or contact (032) 888 8282.
