The opening of the $450-million Phase 1A of Solaire Resort & Casino late this year will complete the integrated casino offering of Razon-led Bloomberry Resorts Corp. The expanded portfolio forms part of Bloomberry's effort to make the Philippines one of the newest and biggest gaming destinations in the world.
“We've got a tremendous number of things happen that will continuously to give us benefits not only in the second half but in the coming years,” said Bloomberry president and COO Thomas Arasi.
Specifically, Bloomberry will open Solaire's Phase 1A by end-November even as it increases brand awareness here and abroad through numerous marketing programs, Arasi said.
Bloomberry is completing the Phase 1A expansion that includes a 312-room all-suite boutique hotel, a retail promenade anchored on 40 luxury brand shops, a 1,700-seat performance theatre, more food and beverage offerings, a nightclub, KTV, whisky bar, spa, gym and salon.
In May, property giant Ayala Land Inc. and casino operator Bloomberry partnered to introduce an upscale retail concept in Solaire.
The integrated casino hotel, which started operations in March last year, is situated in the Entertainment City, a 120-hectare property reclaimed from Manila Bay and owned by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. The Entertainment City is the Philippines' answer to Las Vegas, Singapore and Macau gaming hubs.
Arasi said these developments will elevate the Philippines to one of the five top upscale gaming hubs in the world.
