    As it celebrates 10 years as the Philippines’ very first integrated resort, Resorts World Manila (RWM) stays true to its trailblazing nature through continued growth and innovation in delivering world-class thrills with a Filipino touch. I was so happy to be given a privilege to experience these amazing and world-class services by Resorts World Manila.


    Hilton Manila Hotel and Sheraton Manila Hotel Joins RWM

    As the Philippines sees unprecedented growth in international tourist arrivals, along with a boom in domestic tourism, RWM has expanded and upgraded its hotel segment to include major global hospitality brands and saw the opening of the country’s first Holiday Inn Express hotel, the return of the Philippines’ first five-star brand, the Hilton Manila, and most recently the Sheraton Manila Hotel.  They join RWM’s all-suite Maxims Hotel, the five-star Manila Marriott Hotel, and homegrown business traveler hotels Belmont Hotel Manila and Savoy Hotel Manila – both of which have received accolades for delivering essential luxuries at an exceptional value.


    These will be soon followed by the Hotel Okura Manila, another Philippine-first, which will house all-suite accommodations featuring the signature elegance of the esteemed Japanese brand. Once all hotel developments are completed, RWM will have eight hotel brands and a total hotel room count of almost 3,600 – the most for a single complex in the Philippines.

    Do you want to try home-cooked dishes when in Manila? Come to Kusina Restaurant in Hilton Manila for sure win buffet! And when you're here, don't forget to order grilled seafood - spicy shrimp!!!!#rwmexplore2019 #resortsworldmanila #hiltonmanila pic.twitter.com/xpV0Tfoy8F

    Belmont Hotel Manila Got Your Business Requirements Covered

    The Belmont Hotel Manila has become the preferred accommodation among business travelers. The 470-room Belmont Hotel Manila, which was recently named the Best Airport Hotel in the Philippines by the Travel and Hospitality Awards, offers optimum city views from its rooftop pool and bar and easy access to the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 (NAIA 3) through Runway Manila.


    Savoy Hotel Manila Joins RWM

    The newest addition to RWM’s lineup of practical accommodations is Savoy Hotel Manila, a 684-room development where guests can enjoy creature comforts such as a swimming pool, function rooms, fitness center, dining outlets, and Squares – a common lounge area with spaces for guests to work, relax, or mingle.

    The Runway Manila and Free Shuttles

    All RWM hotel guests benefit from the integrated resort’s proximity to the airport. In addition to the option to reach NAIA 3 without enduring the notorious Manila traffic through Runway Manila, all RWM guests may use the free hourly shuttles to and from all Manila international airport terminals.



    Ang Huling El Bimbo Rerun Is A Must-Watch

    To celebrate 10 years of championing the Philippine Performing Arts, RWM, together with the Full House Theater Company (FHTC) is holding the second run of Ang Huling El Bimbo, which is based on the songs of an iconic 90’s Philippine rock band at the Newport Performing Arts Theater until April 14, 2019. The original all-Filipino production has proven to be one of the Company’s most successful productions during its original run in 2018, with multiple sold-out shows and a slew of industry citations.

    Our country's Premier entertainment and tourism destination, Resorts World Manila has once again launched the annual Grand Fiesta Manila 2017 (GFM). It was an honor to be selected and experienced the "fantasy funfair" themed festivities together with other CBS Bloggers. On its 8th year, guests get to enjoy various holiday promos in dining, hotel accommodations, and selected retail outlets. I'm so excited to share with you what I had tasted for this Fantasy funfair!

    A+ FOR BELMONT HOTEL

    In the previous years, I checked-in to Maxim's Hotel. It was grand and I couldn't forget the amazing life I had during my short-day stay. But for this year, I came to experience an A+ service from Belmont Hotel Manila.

    Aside from the scenic view of Manila skyline, Belmont Hotel Manila offers travelers the chance to discover true relaxation while waiting for their flights or maybe just do some short staycation.The Hotel is just 5-minute walk away from Ninoy Aquino International Airport’s Terminal 3 which is very comfortable and hassle-free for visitors. Not to mention the Runway Manila footbridge got instagrammable backdrops and panoramas which every Millennials would be interested to do a pose.

    And here's some good news for everyone! For the rest of the year, Belmont Hotel Manila offers a Flash Sale! With rates starting at PHP 4,000.00 net (room only), vacationers will surely enjoy the Capital while doing shopping or just visiting a friend or family members during Holiday rush. Personally, I love the intimate space I had in my room. Belmont got clean, comfy and luxurious beddings. The 4K package entitles guests to use the hotel’s rooftop swimming pool and Jacuzzi, and the fitness center and sauna. But if you wish to enjoy sumptuous breakfast buffet of the hotel, you can add PHP 928 to the package.

    PASSIONATE THANKSGIVING DINNER

    Not my first time on a Thanksgiving dinner with a huge number of Media and Blogger friends but during Resorts World Manila's version, I was lucky to share a Cantonese table with the Country's top Media and Bloggers personalities at Passion Restaurant of Maxim Hotel.

    The special event was graced with some Entertainment personalities such as It's Showtime's Tawag Ng Tanghalan's Finalists Sam Mangubat and Froilan Canlas, Comedians Alex Calleja and much more. The event ended with a lot of Surprises and prizes from Resorts World Manila for all the members of the Media.

    CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG

    Our 2-day itinerary ended up with a bang! Not a fireworks display but with the world famous play, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (CCBB). I won't forget the playful characters of the show. There is Gian Magdangal who plays Caractacus Potts with his children Albert Silos and Isabeli Elizalde who play Jeremy and Jemima Potts respectively.But these main Characters who executed their roles passionately, are not the scene stealer of the show. Here's a spoiler, you should be prepared to laugh out loud with the characters of Mako Alonso and Reb Atadero. This beloved British family musical, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang runs from October 21 until November 12.

    But if you miss CCBB, the Newport Performing Arts Theater (NPAT) is also set to present a torrent of OPM concerts for GFM starting off with Ogie Alcasid’s “The Soundtrack of My Life” concert on November 30; Bamboo on December 7; Dingdong Avanzado and Jessa Zaragosa’s anniversary concert on December 8; Manila Sound with Hotdog on December 13; and Aegis in “Ating Sayawin” on December 20.
