Did a tsunami sweep through Davao, Philippines?

I would like to know about the area near the Marco Polo Hotel and the Gaisano Mall, please.
Does anyone have any news?

There is nothing about this anywhere on the internet so far, although a 6.4 earthquake struck Taiwan not too long ago so I suppose there could be repercussions from that. Nothing official from what I have seen, though.

Hi, are there nice hotels near Fernwood Gardens in Quezon City?

I am currently looking for hotels for my in laws (from the US and possibly a couple more friends) to stay in for my wedding. I am thinking along the areas of Ortigas or Makati but I am wondering if there's any other place that is also nice but close to Fernwood.

Thanks

Fernwood Garden is in Project 6 QC (if I am not mistaken). There are hotels available on Tomas Morato and Quezon Ave. Its probably 15-30 minutes away from Fernwood. Those are 3-star to 4-star hotel. Not as good as what you can find in Ortigas and Makati but its pretty decent.

I recommend Imperial Hotel, Fernandina and Great Eastern Hotel. Not the best but its fine. For your convenience you can check these sites out.

Beach Resorts in Orlando Fl. Not Far Away From Sea World?

I am planning a trip to florida for the first time. I wanted to visit Seaworld since we are going with our 2 Year old. But i wanted to go to a BEACH resort. The hotels Seaworld offers have no beaches. Thanks. in advance!
So wanted to know if theres any Beach resort where we can Take a Cab too and won't be 100 Bucks or something. Thanks!

There are no beaches in Orlando as it is in Central Florida and is land locked. Your option would be to pick a community on one of the coasts and then drive to Sea World on the day you'd like to visit. I'm partial to the West Coast because that is where I live, but there are very nice places on both coasts. My suggestion would be Clearwater Beach. From here to Sea World takes anywhere from 90 minutes to two hours depending on traffic.

Getting around Manila: The Light Rail

No matter which of the different cheap Manila hotels you use while staying in the city, the options for public transportation are fairly vast, but the most up-to-date version is the Manila light rail transit system, commonly referred to simply as the LRT. It is the easiest way to get from your cheap Manila hotel to any destination in the city. While it is technically referred to as a light rail system because it uses light rail vehicles, in many ways it functions much like a rapid transit system, with an extremely high passenger throughput on a daily basis. In fact, if you are on your way back to your cheap Manila hotel during rush hour you are likely to be crammed in like a sardine. Thankfully, the light rail is extremely cheap to use and it is also extremely efficient, moving people to and from various destinations throughout the city, ranging from cheap Manila hotels to apartments, restaurants and otherwise.

The light rail system in Manila operates 30 different lines along a 19 mile stretch of track, with two distinct lines. The Yellow Line travels along the north and south route, while the Purple Line runs east and west across the city. While the original LRT line was built as a no-frills type of public transportation with very little in the way of comfort, these days there are additional seats and barrier-free access to ferry people back and forth from their cheap Manila hotels to destinations throughout the city in reasonable comfort.

Did that "Trillanes coup" mess made staying at the Peninsula Manila a corny thing or exactly the opposite?

I've read some articles at Tripadvisor.com about the Peninsula Manila written by previous patrons of the hotel. They almost all state that the mess that happened in November (with that laughably executed "coup d'etat") will make them wanna check-in across the street at the Shangri-La Makati. They say that that the coup d'farce that happened there made the Peninsula name seem so synonymous to incompetence, lack of safety and that good ol' Filipino style of getting things done (or undone).

So my question is... SHOULD that incident hurt the Peninsula Manila name? Do you associate that hotel to any of the mentioned things above?

Makes me pissed really, how people can be so ignorant of the truth behind what REALLY happened during the siege. And the fact that I truly believe that there is no better hotel in the Philippines.

i think trillanes and group choose the hotel bc it is a luxury hotel the government would be afraid to scratch.Unexpectedly, the administration did not gave way for that tactic nor with the news team serving as human shields or hostages for the coup plotters to have an extension of the delay till nov 30 where mass of anti gloria mass protesters would surely group in thereby gaining them strength.
for me, given the notice to vacate the hotel to the news team and ignoring it is tantamount to treason. "If you're not with us, you're with them!!!"Given the situation if the incident was with muslim separatist or terrorist, would this news team stay with the terrorist? None in the history of philippine news i am aware had ever been recorded unless they were themselves made hostages.

Hotel in Bacolod?

I am looking at L’ Fisher, Bacolod Convention Plaza, or Casino Filipino Hotel. Can anyone tell me which one is the most comfortable and close to the nightlife? L Fisher does not have a pool wich is a drawback.
I really would like the hightest quality rooms.

When I visit Bacolod I always stay at www.palmas-del-mar.com .
It over on J.R. Torrez Ave less that 10 min away from the Golden Fields. It's a beach resort right on the water with 2 swimming pools and has a good poolside resturant whith a good view of the ocean. The rooms are very nice and I especially like staying in the "Lagoon Rooms" because of the view and outside covered terrace. A very nice and comfortable place to stay that is close to the nightlife and reasonably priced.

Golfing in the Philippines – A Great Idea

Golfing may be the last activity that would come to mind when the Philippines are mentioned. Not known for its golfers, the Philippines have a very old and strong golfing culture that stretches back to over a century. The Philippine Open is one of the oldest golfing tournaments in the world and attracts world-class golfers from all over the world. Despite this, the Philippines have not produced any famous golfers, although there are number of Filipino golfers who compete locally or on the international amateur circuit.

If you are a golf lover, then the Philippines is a great place for you. Of course, you don't have to make the trip just for golfing. Anyone who likes golfing and is going to live there, or someone is going to settle there after retirement, can take up golf as a hobby and it will be a very good activity. There are a number of reasons why the Philippines is an ideal place to play golf.

Conditions

The climate of the Philippines is conducive to the sport. The golf balls require wind pressure to push them through the air. The terrain and weather in the Philippines is idea for golfing as the wind blows continuously and playing golf becomes that much easier. The pleasant weather at all times would make you love to be outdoors and what better than playing golf in good weather conditions.

Scenery

The Philippines is one of the most beautiful places in Asia. The scenery and greenery is breathtaking and the golf courses are built on some of the greenest areas in the Philippines. They exude a charm that will entice you and you will love the environment and surroundings that stretch as far as the eye can see.

World-class Golf Courses

To say that the Philippines have some of the best golf courses in Asia would be an understatement. With state-of-the-art facilities, perfect weather conditions and ideal golfing terrain, the golf courses in the Philippines can compete with the best golf courses in the world. This is why the Philippines is said to be the golfer's paradise by many people. Not only can you train and practice your golfing here, the facilities are of the professional standards and golfers from all over the region come to the Philippines to hone their skills.

All in all, if you are an avid golfer, then you should visit the Philippines at least once when you have the chance.

why is or what makes cebu the top tourism destination of the philippines today?

Cebu has more visitors than Boracay, Davao (Cebu Daily News)

Cebu has become the country’s top tourist destination based on tourist arrivals, according to the Department of Tourism (DOT).

There are more things to do in Cebu than either Boracay or Davao. Cebu has beautiful beaches and beach resorts on Mactan Island. Cebu is a good sized city with many restaurants and stores and there is very good night life with many bars and clubs. Also you can explore the nearby mountains, the Taoist Temple and some historical churches.

Boracay is a very beautiful place but once you get tired of the beach and water activities there is nothing else to do. The weather in Boracay is bad from June until October with too much wind and rain. Davao is just a big city and has a reputation for being dangerous.

How do I get to Vigan in the Philippines by bus from Ortigas?

We'd like to take a bus to Vigan. We're coming from the Astoria Plaza hotel in Ortigas (Pasig, I believe). Where is the closest bus station for a bus to Vigan, and how can we get to the station using bus/jeepney/MRT/LRT ? We heard about Partas; are there other choices for bus companies ?
Where can we get bus schedules ? Thanks very much.

From your location, Partas' Cubao terminal is closest. It's at Aurora Blvd near N. Domingo street and the intersections of Aurora, E. Rodriguez Ave., and EDSA.

It's much easier to take a cab. Call them for their times. Your hotel should be able to help with that and how to get there.

The jet seemed to be bouncing off of the clouds at this point in my flight.  The turbulence was business as usual for those used to the flight from Tokyo-Narita to Manila International.  With that said, most of the passengers seemed to be either gripping there seat handles tightly or saying a silent prayer that they landed safely.  I was not nervous, for two reasons.  The first was because I have done this flight a thousand times.  The second was because this bouncing was nothing compared to what kind of bouncing lay ahead in Boni9faco Global City.

Hong kong Probably bounces at a rate of three on a scale of one through ten.  I'll give Tokyo a five, and Bangkok gets an easy seven.  This flight and those three cities couldn't imagine the type of bouncing that goes on in a dance club in Bonifacio Global City, and although the flight made most grimmace, the foreknowledge of my evening made me smile!

Within an hour of landing in Manila International airport, my passport was stamped, my bagge collected, and I was in a taxi cab heading for Bonifacio.  Philippine tourism has dramatically changed since I was a small child.  I used to look forward to the white sand beaches, the swaying palm trees, and the cool tropical breeze of the South Pacific.

Now I look forward to the clubbing and night life capitol of Southeast Asia.  The towering super clubs, the five star restaurants, and the world class luxury hotel suites.  I know that by nine O'clock I will be on the dance floor getting jiggly in ways that Las Vegas, Miami, Atlantic City, and Bangkok could only dream of.

Welcome to the high life.  Welcome to the new Philippines Tourism.

My name is Matthew Gwapito and I am a man of divided interest.  Half of my time is spent in San Francisco, the other half in the Philippines.  While often distant from the place I call home, my heart, and hence my writing, is always reminicing of days in the south pacific where life was much more simple, beautiful, and rewarding.

Working abroad is as necasary for me as it is for others, but nearly everything I do, think, or write is one more mental step closer to the Philippines.

Between Philippines Tourism & Manila Nightlife, I am surprised I have time to write at all!

Top 5 Things to See and Do While in Cebu

This is exactly the reason why one should make the most of every trip they make. If you are planning a trip toCebu, you may be overwhelmed at all the things that you can see and do while you are there. Here is a helpful list of must-see and must-do's while you are on the beautiful island known asCebu.

 

The first thing that you must see is the most obvious. You are inCebuso you definitely have to hit the gorgeous beaches and resorts. There are tons of white sand beaches where you can enjoy laying out under the sun with a fresh fruit shake. Why not make your trip a little bit more adventurous? If you have never been scuba diving there is no better place to try it then inCebu. Some great diving areas are Bantayan, Sumilon, Badian, Mactan and Sulpa.

 

For a nice change in atmosphere visit the old churches inCebu. Take a peek at the countrys oldest church, The Basilica Minore del Sto. Nino. Some of the churches that you will see date back to the old Spanish era.

 

The infamous Sinulog is one that you must take part in if you happen to be inCebuduring this festival. It is the epitome of whatCebuis all about. This is a 9 day event and takes place every third Sunday of January. This is the biggest religious festival that takes place on the island. Think of it as a sort of Mardi Gras that celebrates offerings and thanksgiving. Learn the Sinulog dance and join locals for a great time.

 

For a bit of old world charm, make a stop in downtown. Here you will find Colon St. Don't forget to take a snapshot here because it is the oldest street in thePhilippines. Have a quick meal here. It is much safer in the area now but it is still best to bring just what is needed for the day while visiting this area ofCebu.

 

Lastly, eat, eat and eat.Cebuhas delicious food. You cannot end your trip without consuming the Talisay Lechon or roasted pig. This is said to be the best Lechon in the country. Other delicacies to try are the Puso, Sutukil and of course the dried mangoes.

What color of shade of powder foundation would u recommend for me?

This is the powder I'm buying: http://www.covergirl.ca/en_ca/products/product.php?productId=clean_pressed_powder

They have a list of shade colors on that site... what would u recommend for me?
Thanks!

My skin is like this color ----> http://victorias.olx.com.ph/casino-filipino-hotel-cebu-job-hiring-iid-81954376#pics

I suggest you go to the store and try on the foundation first by doing a stripe test using the samples. Apply the foundation at the bottom of the cheeks, step back and look if the shade matches the color of your face and neck.

Disney World Vacations: 5 Reasons Why You Should Stay in a Disney World Resort Hotel

Deciding to take your family to Walt Disney World on vacation is only the first step. The next one is to think about where you would like to stay. Hotel options in Orlando are endless but there are several reasons why you should consider staying in an on site Disney World Resort hotel.

1. Experience the Disney magic

When the Imagineers built the Resort they didn't put all of the magic into the themeparks alone, each Resort hotel is an experience in itself. Whether you want to be whisked off to a Polynesian Isle at the Polynesian Resort, experience the grandeur of Victorian Florida at the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, or watch animals roaming the savannas at the Animal Kingdom Lodge, no two hotels are the same, and they are unlike any hotel you'll stay in anywhere else in the world.

2. It's easy to get from A to B

As a Disney World guest you have access to the free Disney Transportation System to travel between the various hotels, themeparks, golf courses, water parks and the shopping village. Depending on your Resort hotel of choice you'll have access to busses, boats and even the monorail system.

You don't even need to worry about renting a car if you're flying in for your vacation. Disney's free Magical Express coach service will collect you and your luggage from the airport and transfer you to your Resort. Then when your vacation is over they'll take you back again in time for your flight.

3. Get entry into the park before the gates open

Resort guests are able to take advantage of DIsney World's Extra Magic Hours programme, which means on select days you can enter the parks one hour before the official opening, or stay for two or three hours after official closing. If you are travelling during off-peak season when the park opening hours are shorter this perk will allow you more time to experience your favourite attractions.

4. It's great for teenage guests

If you are travelling with teenagers then staying on site will allow you to give them a little bit of freedom. Because the hotels are linked to the parks by the transportation system you don't need to spend all of your time together as a family. The kids will be able to come and go as they please without relying on you and the car to ferry them around like they do back home.

5. It's perfect for taking afternoon breaks

Touring the parks can be tiring, especially in the heat of the summer months. Staying in a Disney World hotel makes it really easy to leave the parks during the afternoon and return back to your room for a nap. You can also take advantage of the Resort pool to cool off and refresh before heading back out to the parks in the evening.

Island Resort Philippines

What does the Philippines need ... to be a world class destination?

(the saudis are in the desert but they have the 7 star hotel and a ski resort complete with snow and they even have man made palm islands) I mean, couldn't any Pinoy think of something to put up to make the Philippines a place where foreigners consider us different in a nice way?
Edit:

ooops sorry my bad .. Emiratis not Saudis.
TY battgirl =)

Maybe this 7-star complex?
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AlMLHjWxcbQwX7OvUztRMyrsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080104212214AA9hH8C

First of all, stability of peace should be there because that is the foremost thing that scares tourist away despite the beauty of our natural wonders. My Arab friends travel around SouthEast Asia but some have deliberately avoided Philippines after a friend had packed his bags after spending one night in a Palawan resort and hearing a gun shot. It may be an isolated case but the idea of running into danger scares most of our potential tourists. Once we have established that our country is not dangerous, we have practically much to offer. Shopping and nature trips =)

EDIT: BGy, the Saudi's don't have the 7star hotel and indoor ski, it's the Emiratis, don't get confused =)

Dive Galapagos - Visibility SUCKS when Diving the Galapagos

Dive Galapagos - Visibility SUCKS when Diving the Galapagos

Now if you're used to diving in a Quarry Pit, or a Lake, or Ocean where the visibility is not so good, then you're going to be right at home if you decide to dive the Galapagos cause the VISABILITY SUCKS in the Galapagos. Ok maybe it's not quite the same as diving in your local quarry pit, but the reason visibility is so bad when you dive the Galapagos, is because there is just so many fish it's really quite unreal.

The abundance of fish life you will see when you dive the Galapagos, is phenomenal and the variety is also extreme,  on many occasions you are engulfed in shoals of fish that take the visibility down to  just few feet as you are engulfed in fish life, as you swim out of the shoal you are met with the more normal 60-120ft viz depending on the area of the Galapagos you are diving

If you have never been Diving Galapagos, then you are in for a real treat. Diving the Galapagos is considered by all divers that have dove there, to be the best diving in the world for big marine life and the author wholeheartedly agrees in the assessment that when you Dive the Galapagos you will be diving on one of the best locations on Earth.

Dive Galapagos – Disney Land For Divers

So what is a typical dive like when you Dive Galapagos? First off the life on the surface of the water is very active and it is not untypical to see Dolphins jumping, Sea birds diving into the water after the shoals of fish that have been chased to the surface by underwater predators. You can also see Turtles surfacing to take a breath before descending back into the depths and all this before you have even descended.

Once under the water it is literally Disneyland for Divers, a wondrous place where you just don't know where to look first. The waters are teeming with life from the moment you slip under the water you will see hundreds of Sharks patrolling the waters looking for their next meal, you will see Turtles which are abundant, on multiple occasions you will bump into a pod of Dolphins that quickly comes in for an inspection of the strange looking creatures flailing about underwater. And then there are the Big Daddy's that are spotted on a very regular basis when diving the Galapagos, such as the huge Pacific Manta Rays, and their smaller cousins the Modula Rays. Manta Rays can reach a massive size, and many times the only way you know they are there, is the light suddenly dims as a massive Manta Ray flies over the top of you blocking the sunlight for a few seconds, making you look up. Then there are the Mobula Rays that are about 12-14 wingspan, they travel in groups just like a squadron of jet fighters flying by in formation, swimming  very close and circling the divers before swimming off.

Then there is grand daddy of them all, the largest fish in the sea ,the mighty Whale Shark. Whale Sharks can grow to over 40ft in length and are abundant in the Galapagos and if you have never dove with a Whale Shark your chances are very high that you will see your first one on your dive trip to Dive the Galapagos.

In late fall this is the best time to Dive Galapagos and see Whale sharks and on many many occasions dive trips have seen up to 24 Whale Sharks per 5-7 day Liveboard charter adventure.

Dive Galapagos – Required Diving For Every Diver

Diving Galapagos Islands is the Mecca for divers, and as a Muslim is required to make the pilgrimage to Mecca once in their life you as a diver should also make the pilgrimage to Dive Galapagos at least once in your life, do whatever you have to, to get there, Sell your Granny, sell the Car, dance naked in your local Mall for tips, whatever it takes to raise the funds for this trip of a lifetime. It will be worth every single cent and will be the very best dive trip you ever take, GUARANTEED

Where To Stay In Davao

Adversity

Adversity, according to dictionary.com, is defined as a condition marked by misfortune, calamity, or distress. I was reading Beyond Basketball: Coach K's Keywords for Success on adversity, which Mike Krzyzewski mentioned that, "what separates good teams and individuals from great ones is the manner in which they handle adversity."


I could not have agree more on that. Adversity can certainly be an opportunity for you to grow, to discover about yourself and to breakthrough your limit. In his book, Beyond Basketball, he mentioned that, "whenever I face adversity, I look at the problem and then beyond the problem. I look for the positive impact it will have on me, my team, or my family."


I would never have truly understood that, not until two years back when I was in Philippines and going through it myself.


I was then in Davao City. The Philippines is divided into three geographical areas: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. Davao City is the main city in Mindanao and I heard that it is the largest City in the world by land area. I stayed in Davao City for about 8 months and I loved the city. It has the best of both world. Being a city, it has many facilities that comes with a city and at the same time, you can enjoy peaceful moment at night like in the countryside. Basically it is also a safe place to live in; I remember I was walking alone in the street 2, 3 a.m. in the morning and I did not fear being rob or anything.


And what about this city that taught me to handle adversity? There was once I have to make a trip to a college which is about an hour away by car. I was pretty excited to be given an opportunity to present to a group of students and all the while in the car, I was going through the presentation in my mind and at the same time enjoying the scenic view on the way to the college.


When I reached the college, the students were already in the lecture hall waiting for me to start my presentation. Without any further delay, I set up my projector, the laptop and within minutes, I was good to go. There was only one challenge; the laptop refused to power up. Basically, the laptop had chosen the 'most appropriate time' to break down and had it not broken down, I would not have the opportunity to grow.


My presentation slide was in the laptop and even if I had a soft copy of the presentation slide, there was no other computers or laptops which I could use. And so I stood there for a moment facing the group of about 20-30 students and their eyes were all looking at me and waiting for me to start. I had no choice, or rather I was already given a choice; the show must go on.


I saw a whiteboard just besides me, I asked for a few whiteboard markers and so the show began. At first I was worried as I do not know how should I go about the presentation or what should I say. But within five minutes into the presentation, I found that everything just comes to my mind naturally. In fact it was much better I would say, as I was able to make it a more interactive session by engaging the students at some parts of the presentation. Do you think the students enjoyed the session? I certainly believe they did enjoy it.


What occurred that day was not only a learning experience for the students, but also a good learning experience for myself. I remember a quotation that states, "Remember that challenges are not there to stop you. The challenges are there to help you grow." Similarly, adversity provides us an opportunity not only to grow but also to breakthrough the limits that we set for ourselves.

What sort of price should I pay?

Whatever you decide watch your back after a few drinks with "NEW" friends a friend of mine woke up naked. All the money and documents gone and soon after he had a kidney failure.

Scuba Diving Operators

scuba diving operators_2"scuba diving operators"
Any recommendations for where a young singleton can learn to Scuba Dive abroad?

With some holiday days left I thought I might learn to scuba dive (this year) and take a holiday at the same time. But as everyone I know is broke or busy and I'll most likely be on my own I would rather go with an operator / outfit that's reasonably hip. Whilst a mixed crowd is fine I don't really want to end up on a trip with all families / elderly / couples and I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good scuba outfit with this is mind?
Cheers

The social side to the sport more or less includes families so it will be difficult to find an exclusively singles outfit just by checking individual shops, you'll just luck out if you do get on a course consisting solely of hip singles. You could on the other hand, check here:
http://www.singledivers.com/
which is a site deicated to singles diving. There's a few other sites similar, that offer vacation packages and will set up room mates. I'm unsure if they have any packages for open water students.
Probably the number one destination that has what you're looking for, is Thailand. Many dive shops and areas to choose from. Phuket in particular.
I'm curious though. You could do this course or at least a majority of it at home. Even if you only did the academics, you'd save some of your vacation time for actual diving. PADI has a referral program that allows you to do your schoolwork at home and the certification dives at your vacation destination. I'm not a big fan of this, since you're learning in an easier environment as a rule, but at least it would maximize your vacation time. The better route would be to do all of it at home in what's probably a tougher environment but teaching you a few things you'd not learn in a warm water environment and having that entire vacation time open to diving instead of stuck in class. I can understand that some people just don't want to set foot in colder water period but by doing at least the academics at home you could skip to the fun stuff right off the bat.

Apart-Hotels on Track to Overtake the Buy-to-Let Market

Beth Collingz, PLC Global Marketing Director of PLC International Marketing Networks, the lead marketing partners for Pacific Concord Properties Inc Lancaster Brand of Condo Hotels in the Philippines says Apart-hotels or Condotels as they are know locally are really growing in popularity among British and European investors. In the last two months alone we have sold a significant number of apart-hotel units both in the UK and Europe. Apart-hotels are an opportunity for investors to purchase into a new asset class with much higher yields than traditional buy-to-let properties.

The rental opportunity is achieved through a need for hotel accommodation, rather than residential letting markets. There are three key reasons why buyers are keen to invest in Apart-hotels or Condotels in the Philippines" Collingz continues, Firstly, it's a completely hands-off investment: the developer builds the hotel, and the management company runs it. Their job is to operate the hotel, maintain it and ensure maximum room occupancy and, as they receive a percentage of the nightly room rate, they are motivated to do so.

Secondly, because investors income is a percentage of the nightly, weekly or monthly room rate of the rental operations pool of all the units in the development rather than a monthly income from a single rented property, they are not exposed to substantial monthly deficits.

From a financial perspective, the income level compares favorably with traditional buy-to-let. Generally, expected income levels are sizeable 12-16% ROI per annum would not be unusual in a well-selected apart-hotel. If suggested income levels on a development are much below 10%, we would not consider promoting it as it would not represent a good investment opportunity for our clients said Collingz.

In the Philippines this form of investment seems set to outstrip the traditional buy-to-let rental market. At present, Metro Manila and regional towns such as Cebu, lack hotel rooms meaning that occupancy levels in any developments are likely to be high.

Most new investors in the Lancaster Suites Manila are established UK property investors who are looking for a UK product with a higher yield and no operating deficits. However, Apart-hotels are also attracting first time buyers looking to establish themselves on the property ladder whilst making yearly income as well.

Demand for apart-hotels is increasing as investors become more aware and better informed about the opportunities on offer. And whilst finding financing for overseas property has been difficult in the past, PCPI offers all buyers a no prequalification In-House 12 year payment plan with zero down payment, making the entry level open to may first time investors.

Lancaster - The Atrium, located in Shaw Boulevard, Metro Manila, is a "Full Service" Apart-Hotel ["Condotel"] offering Studio, One, Two and Three Bedroom Suites for sale. To be completed and ready for turnover from December 2010, Lancaster will provide unit owners with premier residential condo units with the option of enrolling their units in the Lancaster Rental Pool and earn Rental Incomes as Owner Non-Residents when not using their units. This makes Lancaster Manila, one of the Hottest Investment Opportunities in the Philippines said Collingz.

All units at the Lancaster Suites have kitchen facilities. The standard unit price provides for the suite to be semi-finished but not fully furnished. Included in the current price are the interior finishing's such as tiled & semi-fitted bathrooms, bedrooms with simulated wood plank flooring, semi-fitted living and dining area with simulated wood plank floorings and lower kitchen cabinets/work tops installed. Walls and ceilings are painted cement finish. A complete optional extra interior fit-out package including unit fittings and fixtures, furniture's, furnishings, air-conditioning, lighting fixtures and appliances will be available towards the time the units are closer to being completed continued Collingz.
