Celebrities have hectic schedules and might all benefit from having a quiet place to escape the public eye for a while. The mansions that famous people spend millions on are their safe havens, which is why they are so important to them. A luxurious home of their own is a great sign of how far they have come because of how hard they have worked.
In the Philippines, the majority of high-profile individuals choose to own real estate in or around the metro area, since this is where the majority of their respective businesses are located. Others choose to put their money into vacation houses located in some of the most beautiful parts of the country. In any case, these enticing celebrity houses are wonderful sources of design inspiration from which we may draw ideas on how to decorate our own rooms.
Check out the top 10 most expensive celebrity houses in the Philippines.

Vice Ganda
Back in 2021, Vice Ganda posted a video on his YouTube channel of his new house in its bare form. The TV personality originally purchased the lot for his grandfather; work on the house was delayed for a while because his grandfather died and he was devasted to continue working on the house. However, Vice kept the property and began to work on it.

Today, Vice Ganda has showcased the property on many of his Vlogs. What was once a bare space was now equipped with luxury features that include mini-bar, spacious guest rooms, a spa & sauna, an entertainment room, and even a glass pool.
Xian Lim
Xian Lim gives fans a virtual tour of his multi-level house from the early 1980s. According to Xian, he acquired the property 10 years ago and retained the house's original construction. The home is a blend of styles to accommodate Xian's mother, Mary Anne, and grandmother, Leonie, who live with him. Blending old and contemporary suits Xian's style. Xian emphasizes that he wants his visitors to feel at home. Xian's interior designer, Taylor Living, included an L-shaped sofa in the main floor living room for that purpose. The "attic" is his house's hangout for like-minded friends. "A nice location to unwind and discuss life," says Kapamilya star. The dining room, where the family makes up for a missed time, is "extremely intimate" to him.
