Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort launches corporate meeting package

MANILA, Philippines - Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa, Philippines has launched an unconventional destination meeting package bespoke to dynamic companies on a hunt for an extraordinary business holiday experience in an iconic location—that is, Boracay.

Dubbed as “Sunglasses at Work” Meet by Design, this one-of-a-kind offer is a set of customized ideas and setups that transform the usual boardroom sessions, team bonding activities, special events and other corporate requirements into a fun and memorable affair in Boracay.

“We have brainstormed on how we can provide our corporate clients a relevant destination meeting and social events experience that they cannot do in a city setup. We took advantage of our prime location with its already inspiring nature and pitched in a quip of mixing business with pleasure,” explained Melissa Santiago, director of events at Shangri-La’s Boracay Resort & Spa, Philippines.

For instance, a group can do their strategic planning in a Treehouse Villa endowed with invigorating atmosphere where minds are free to think. After a tedious session, the team may indulge in a 45-minute not-so-usual coffee break either with a quick massage, an arcade game at the Entertainment Centre or beach golf. They may also engage with nature and easily unwind under the sea with coral reef planting or participate in a beach clean-up.

When the meetings adjourn, groups may find further inspiration throughout the lush 12.5-hectare property offering a multitude of leisure activities and suitable venues for teambuilding or bonding amidst tranquil gardens and beaches.

Having a get together without an agenda will enable the team to build its network in a breeze while enjoying unique dining experiences by the resort’s international culinary and banquet team.

In this hidden luxury paradise where inspiration and productivity abound, participants come out with a renewed enthusiasm to deliver the best rewards for their companies.

“Signature Events” is a comprehensive set of initiatives designed to position Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, one of the world’s premier hotel groups, firmly at the forefront of delivering streamlined, successful events.

Meeting organizers can take advantage of services and benefits tailored to their needs, from initial inquiry to event follow-up.

It also features pillarless, high- ceilinged ballrooms of up to 2,340 square meters in key city locations. For more information, please visit www.shangri-la.com.
