H2O Ventures eyes more water-themed hotels in the Philippines

H2O Ventures, the developer of Manila Ocean Park, will launch a five-star water-themed hotel in Makati in mid-2013, and is planning to expand its Hotel H2O brand to Palawan, Boracay and Cebu.

Situated in the Makati CBD, the 401-room Worldhotel & Residences Makati will feature a 400m2 acrylic swimming pool suspended above Makati Avenue, and a five-level 3,600m2 spa with more than 120 massage beds.

H2O Ventures founder, Lim Chee Yong, said the successful operations of Manila Ocean Park and the adjoining Hotel H2O Manila were behind his decision to leverage on the aquatic theme for his expansion strategy.

Antonette Mitschiener, Hotel H2O Manila director of sales & marketing, said: “Hotel H2O’s strongest selling point is its unique water-themed facilities, where guests can interact with fishes and other marine creatures – beyond the usual meeting agendas for MICE travellers and visits to the park for individual travellers.”

Mitschiener added that Hotel H2O Manila and Worldhotel & Residences Makati would eventually be cross-sold with the group’s future properties in Palawan, Boracay and Cebu, to encourage guests to extend their visits to multiple destinations.
